Best Amen Poems

I ransack my mind…the blurred tale that cries 
On hollow tracks  scarcely finding life's way 
The bleakest moans, the clearest views reprise--
A pounding shrill of angst   which reels all day.

Though a prayerful night quietly drains,
Above, a communion with God remains.

From my confined...

We are the last animals on earth,
Sneakily chasing elephants,
In the perilous bush, o Delight!
Eating frogs with forks
And sweet sour cream,
Reading books to dream about lazy whales,
The last animals,
Raising lions in traveling circuses,
To slaughter sheep in the name of God Almighty,
We are the last animals
Running away...

Would you realize if He was standing right by your side
For as hard as He continually tries you stay right in stride
Walking your own way in the making of all your own rules
In not having the time to pray joining the rest of the fools...

The steeples tower over our flags
Dissent is not allowed here
How dare you not say the pledge!
Shots ring out in the crowded halls
Our children fall; victims of the sickness
We awaken from fractured dreams of something resembling freedom
Our electronic opinions hang like public laundry on a line
Eyeless...

Love is endless, colorless and blind
...butt where can I find toilet paper
   to wipe my behind!?

Love is everywhere
  onejust has to see
 for the heart is my inner teacher
   my inner tree

I reach for a branch
 extend it thus so

Reflecting upon his love
His inspiration
How he died
Whispering prayers
Breaking his mother’s heart and
All who wish for healing
His home is not our evil world
This sin free gift has a passionate purpose
And courage uttering “It is finished”....

Upon scaling the peak
We reach a plateau
Before which new peaks appear
Thus the crest 
Becomes the trough
Holding erect energies
For onward ascent

There then thus
No higher or lower
All that is
Is God-vibration
Pervading the universe

DO I HEAR AN AMEN?

Looking out life’s window, trying to find out why I am so sad and down.
I am a (vivacious being) so now why do I frown.
I don't blame the Lord for my struggles.
I know strife in life is there.
The (reality of the...

You know there's more to life
than what meets the eye
when you're sitting on the amen pew.

It's the worldly things
that you pass by
When you're sitting on the amen pew.

There's more to church
than just being seen
and when you shout "Amen"
that's what you really mean.

What others may think

The sunrise was like a fertilized egg
golden of yolk and flecked with blood,
it crowed to the mist filled morn.
It ran over the hillside frying the vegetation.
The brilliant white albumen flowed
into the vague gray day.

The egg itself blushed at the flattery
extending pseudo pods of white 
like...

SAY AMEN!
Sometimes the world tries to come in with confusion and 
misconceptions but the hand of God is seen and the world disappears. 
When the soul becomes dishearten, and spirit lies heavy within, I am in the 
Lord’s hands.
You may watch to see my steps...

I go to church and say amen once a week
But in my boat and in my spot
I am much more patient, quiet, and meek
I toss my line it’s just the right shot!!
Again, I will say amen as the bass does grin a lot.

the great river meandering its lazy banks moves its fertility trough eons to keep you guessing its abundance.
The great river is whimsical with its torrents and torment to swallow in an instant your dreams of rich.
but you persevere from nursery to nursing home as in...

Food nourishes the prayerful and the blind.
This day no mourning is proper,
	but tilted.
Streaming video is no comfort
	when the cold howls outside.
Where are you going with this?
Lead on lead on, you farcical clown.

Makeshift shanties will suffice
	when cold is not remorse,
	and video streams into the window.
Bring up...
