Best Amazement Poems

A day, so many years ago, we traveled up to see the stars
from high upon a rising spire,
not knowing then, what we know now

We stood in voiceless, transfixed gaze, where once two towers pierced the sky 
But now the fog of stinging tears grips the...

Mugs of hot chocolate trickle down throats
Snowman is built with a carrot nose
Snuggled into our warmest coats
Can't wait to sled as the snowfall grows
Scrunching on boots over chilly toes

On frozen ponds we all go skating
Sliding our way through the ice and snow
Colder weather anticipating
Doesn't stop...

When sneezing does it feel like you head will come off
I'm always ready to catch it much to my friends guffaws
They cheer and high five me
As I stick it back on with glee
Quite a spectacle, utter amazement it can cause

When a great poet paints - the voyage
turns internal - discovering
the hidden treasures of souls
The saga unfolds...
A poetry
written in
lines and
curves

The rains came today 
washing down an acrid mist 
hours upon hours of descension 
as if sun would had never exist 

barren, he laid half naked 
under guise of her watchful eyes 

in amazement he stared at her attention 
climbing high atop his throbbing soul...

Beauteous strength so majestic with truth, 
Enabling rock stating truth as mineral, 
Acting retarded to ignite my speech,
Unleashing modernity in that ancient screech,
Teaching me that I can have my youth, 
Endeared to me, havering away it seems to be tickled, 
Out with distrust and without...

Editing poem was the genesis - scribbles to cover up the unwanted. manuscripts became pieces of art - his calligraphy and doodles. The pen which created magic with words, started playing with lines and curves. Art was intrinsic - mediums differ. Shifts from words to...

never thought i would find love again
never thought i would meet you
you are a handful, but so am i
total opposites, but we mesh in an alternative way, if you will

never thought i would kiss soft lips again
never came close to thinking that i would kiss...

What we should do is to try and unite,
So we can see each amazement height;

C-rimson sun is shining
H-igh up in the sky; 
A-fter the purple moon sleeps
N-ew day dawns as the night goes by.

G-ray clouds have drifted
I-nto the shadows of the dusk; 
E-vening haze has removed its big blurred black mask.

E-legant view has unfolded in the early beautiful morn;...

Adult days keep rolling faster.
We attribute this to aging,
but it’s routine, firm as plaster,
that induces each years fading.
Adult responsibility
eliminates most mystery.
We don’t absorb what happens next
when we’ve memorized each day’s text.

But, there is the joy of fireworks,
those spontaneous dreamworks,
where our free inner child still lurks
and...

The pot calling the kettle black
Is like a sock in the shoe rack
The black cat crossing the road
X the window lest something explode

Ain't life grand with all its fables
Knocking on wood sitting at the table
Don't step on the sidewalk crack
Lest you break granny's back

So much...

Blue-black, purple sky recedes 
As dawn peeks out her curtain; 

Eyelids kissed by rising sun, 
of egg shell white, I'm certain.

I say goodnight to night.

With asphalt tapping under foot 
The morning moves another chance 

For me to enter into dance with God.  

I thought I was alone...
