Best Augment Poems

I like many others have lived in our dreams
In this world where I lived amongst forests and streams
Where the Great Plains stretched and our rivers flowed
If you could see through my eyes, how my tribe glowed

Born from my mother of Arikara descent
My father a Sioux...

A child lights our way in life...
The greatest gift there is to be.
They suppress our selfish inclinations...
They set our passions free.

They give sense to our mortality.
They put narcissism in its place.
With a child... you're a family
To mark your time and space.

There's nothing more unsettling
Than those...

Smiling mirthfully, relishing amber twilit theme,
Bedazzled in musings, reveling memories agleam,
Oh! how you charm, gazing eve’s blushing arc,
Where scarlet hues delight, igniting love spark
When impulses, moonlit, passions playful cajole
As we stroll daydreaming trekking verdant knoll,
Ambling in romance, two sensuous souls extol;

Just after the setting sun...

Donning splendiferous landscapes stretching for miles,
A culture that aptly prides, in bold, welcoming smiles;
A thriving land of islands~ an archipelago evincing awe,
A resplendence of nature, an exclamation of hurrah.

Sandy beaches embrace realms of pristine coastline,
Harboring lush foliage, embodying sublimity divine,
Of marine life, corals, reveling warmth...

Barren ground, (un)familiar shapes
From restless dreams I try to wake
A picture forms but cannot decide
How to assemble my truth and lies

Butterflies perch upon the lion's mane
I escape from its jaws just to go insane
Entering wagon wheels disguised as pens
Only to draw from sand, more REMs

Beyond...

"When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead"
Dance of Death, Iron Maiden

You are lying in your sleep, as you are lying in your bed
Wake from your dreams, go dancing with...

What time is it?  It's time to get some money

Think harder, Stop being a dummy

Beating a dead horse, only the first time it was funny

With me, don't try to get all chummy


At one point, my life was crummy

Now, I'm turning it around, working on...

Ordinary Precious Stones


Buddha saw it first
but as is his way never let me in on it.
The stones, rough, unfinished,
ill sized tribute to chaos, beckoned.

I closed my eyes
It started to take shape in the mist.
Each stone should have its place
separate yet dependent on the others.
They should...

No matter our relationships and their details,
we all share a commonality that prevails.
It is a truth I have tried and failed to disown.
No matter love depths grown securely known -
          at times we are alone, all...

The scholars say man is innately good.
He just needs training to do what he should.
Education will his nature improve,
and most of his imperfections remove.

God is not needed to help man break through,
much knowledge, reason, and science will do.
No need for old-fashioned values at all.
Rid man...

A firestorm of fleeing grace,
A holy aria from its base,
Its mem'ry will not be erased
From you.

The shifting shards of fate and chance,
The phosphorescent great expanse,
It all together seems to dance
For you.

A dream that stood a hundred years,
That, when it died appeared in tears,
And exiled all...

An evanescent bouquet of skewed briars,
is how a tinsel laden tawdry essence wickedly unfolds,
scuppered signpost to my fetid human compost,
faint light pendant on soul crushed quantum migrant,
who might chortle at vivid veil flimsy vacuum,
skirt recklessly the bogus symbol moiety around me,
peer behind the squalid limp...

Let us play holi holi.....
With the color of saffron,
to inject stimulant 
into the vein of every Indian,
to raise voice against monopoly,
to trigger rifle against terrorists,
to fight against corruption
and to pen against 
Mudslinging, violence and sedition.
After all,
Forgetting everything....
We should focus our approach
for the integrity of our...

In a sense everything is a seed of it's successor
The universe is change, life is judgement
Those aren't my words, they're a famous author
The rest of these are and what I think he meant
Before you demur let's confer, after you'll concur
All there is is progress or...
