Best And Death Poems


Life and Death Across the Sky
Life and death across the sky
some must live and some
must die
   Broken wings and slivers
showing
   Shredded hopes the
wind is blowing
   Feathers flying, hear the
call
   Of the Night Hawk
through it all
   Terror blotting out
the stars

Premium Member Birth and Death
The sun and moon conceived a star
shooting through time and space
 born within the ocean
delivered upon its waves

while Beethoven's sonatas softly played 
nightly gales whispered those tunes to all the seashells
beach sand passed through coral reefs
as soles of lovers feet tread buried in beach fires...

Seasons of Life and Death
Under the care of sun and rain
My leaves have unfurled
My buds have burst forth
My own will has been done
This was my beginning
Through the seasons
Spring brought me to life
Summer grew me to new heights
The fall must come sometime
The frost will encase my barbs
And I will return...

Premium Member The Suffering and Death of Jesus
Searching vainly, the dark enthralled with death, 
Moral fervor and forthrightness deep breath.
In utter silence, stealth into its depths 
Drawing breath, soon all His knowledge in breadth. 

Amidst the Garden of Gethsemane, 
Distraught His strength falter growing angst pain; 
Looking up to the heavens in...

Premium Member Life and Death Like Old Macbeth
Dandelions, babies crying
walking in the woods,
astronomy, philosophy
chickadees and childhood.

Speckled trout, (a technical knock-out)
strawberries red and sweet,
winter, spring, summer, fall
Butterfinger and little "Twinkie" treats.

Dragon flies, questions why
There’s anything at all,
Making mistakes baking cup cakes
Cumulous clouds and rainfall.

Dancing, prancing and romancing 
singing by-gone songs,
Christmas giving, loving, living...

In the halter of destiny, we are all bound.
A monody of souls dissemble and found
With every lynch of trice vicious hand,
We quest to the ossuary of the apex land. 

Yet in this hoedown of life and death,
We descry trices to canonize our...

Dash dot dot (D)
my heart pours out into a puddle of sludge

overly abused

shooting your words like bullets
I took the pills one by one
for your satisfaction. to numb the pain.

The Chasm Of Depression And Death

Screams heard in the far off distance
Tales of pain and horror
Echoing through the night
They call for a hope that is never to come
Their calls fall on deaf ears of those who went before
The light from the distant blood red moon...

I walk the cemetery all alone with me,
loving each ancient, gnarled, beautiful perfect tree.

The grief in this graveyard hangs like a green curtain,
the grass-  and filigree leaves swaying in each tree.

Once these souls had a life and I hope happiness,
oh listen-  ...

Only a Moment
The whole of a journey still to be traveled
is much like a novel begun
with threads of the story not yet unraveled
and windings of plot to be spun.
We’ve myriad paths to meander, assess.
The hours are long till midnight’s chime.
It seems like eternity, nevertheless,
‘tis only a twinkling...
