Best Antidote Poems

O Winter, why this desolation? Trees, once verdant now stand bare
Flowers, long in hibernation; clouds that frown with ominous stare,
Bleak winds chill the rain-soaked bones and blow the leaves from yard to yard
Winter is for hardy souls whose skin is thick when life runs hard.

Come...

Hatred is a smoldering fire
That burns beyond control.
An insidious, lethal poison
That will slowly kill the soul.

Forgiveness is the antidote 
For hatred's deadly sting.
It's a bitter pill to swallow,
But a precious, healing thing.

Hatred's part of Satan's plan,
Designed to bring us misery.
Forgiveness is a gift from God,
Sent...

Even the legendary Stevie Wonder,
Can see the trail of your many lies.
The storm brought lightning and thunder,
Yet I remained blind in a false paradise
The shelter which I provided
Just wasn’t good enough.
Through the dark maze I guided,
Hoping you’d follow my love.

I awoke only to discover,
That I...

Some say that black is white
Others say that sadness is delight
Some say that right is wrong
Others say that short is long

I need a nonsensical antidote
Where is the first aid kit?

Some say that light is heavy
Others say that huge is tiny
Some say that evil is good
Others...

Sunshine undulates across verdant plain
casting dark shadows ushering twilight zone
ringing athwart tree trunks
invigorating, joyously kickstarting, 
and plenti revitalizing

soundlessness inducing bub bully giddy,

When silence comes to surround you
and the past riles up to drown you. 
Call upon your inner wealth
when you’ve become a shadow of yourself. 
Find your way through the disguise 
of all your own lies. 
Separate the real

How much antitoxin would it take
To shake the devil out of a soul;
To clean sin out of the heart
And make it completely whole?

All the antitoxin in the world
Couldn't make it depart;
Only the fear of Christ and salvation
Must penetrate the heart.

Such an uncostly remedy 
You can...

I wish my brain could keep up with itself. The thinking part moves so quickly, so that the remembering part is left to play catch up. So many beautiful thoughts and statements. By beautiful I mean horrific but eloquent of course. The horrific eloquence of...

It's raining and the sun has returned home
although I am by myself, yet I am not alone
mind engages intellect, with time to consider
how this heart of mine, has grown so bitter

Not long ago, reflections of the past were a delight
then in a brief moment, my...

Tonight I lie here on this prairie,
Covered with a blanket of stars.
Consolin' my hurt heart so weary,
Lickin' opened wounds an' scars.

Your relinquished Love forces acceptance,
Vanity has forced behavior.
Memories force reflectance,
Grief felt sorrow my only savior.

Ridin' this line repairin' fence,
My thoughts randomly insane. 
From the day...

on a beautifully blue day like this one
my tempting temptation wins out
the three and a half hours seem like thirty minutes

Dwelling in our earthly tent
life throws at us many an assault
within our lives every kind of fear
Satan whispers it’s your fault

But God has a much better plan
a remedy to cast away every fear
whatever they are thick and thin
the Lord takes away every tear

He tells us...
