Best Awesome Poems
To all who read and comment on my poems
I want to say I hope this is the best year ahead
For all of you
So much is happening in the world but
For you personally I desire
Love
Peace
Harmony
Prosperity
Great Health
A close relationship with God

Some modern folks, when they hear his name,
will roll their eyes and look ashamed,
thinking the cowboy is uncivilized,
with his hats, and guns, and round-up rides.
That somehow they are beyond the stuff,
to good for the wild, and the rough,
following some unwritten ‘elite’ law,
suppressing the urge to shout ‘yee-haw!’
But I think when it all is said and done,
cowboys are truly made of awesome…
Riding swift across the wide-open plains,
coat flapping behind like your horse’s mane,
maneuvering a large and panicked herd,
turning a stampede with iron nerves,
rough-hewn men cooking by the firelight,
coyote chorus yips through the night,
knowing that for all the wind and grit,
it sure beats sitting in an office.
A battered hat worth more than any pearl,
grabs the attention of the cowgirls,
boots that announce you in any room,
be you a mere hand, or fancy bride-groom.
Leather vests that dress up any shirt,
and somehow can even make fringe"work,
a bandana or a wild rag,
with a thousand uses, not a mere fad.
The tell-tale jangle comes from your spurs,
vast coat made out of buffalo fur.
Square-dance, line-dance, twirl a girl around,
to fiddle and steel guitar’s sound,
campfire songs to entertain the kids,
harmonicas to sing the blues with,
teaching the folks to throw a lasso,
then breaking out tricks with swirling rope.
Living life by a strong honor code,
one that good people would do well to know.
Wyatt Earp and his famous revenge ride,
Masterson cut Dodge City down to size,
Doc Holliday gambling with a death wish,
Billy the Kid, criminal, yet tragic,
Wild Bill holding those aces & eights,
and old Kit Carson, out blazing the way,
Buffalo Bill brought the people a dream,
and who can forget, the legend Bass Reeves?
A six-gun at ready, holster right side,
the lines of a Winchester, ever sublime.
Ranches that sprawl on mountain and prairie,
riding the trails where man can breath free,
rampaging rodeo, those guns are fun,
and damn can those barrel-racers run!
Living out of doors, by both skill and luck,
be it on a horse or a pick-up truck,
It’s clear that when all is said and done,
that cowboys are truly made of awesome.
The night's impatience sky
Twists itself around our earth
There, falling stars will fly
While the moon proves what it's worth
I'm standing in this field,
Just waiting for the hour
When the sun will rise once more
To shine its light, upon this flower
Some might ask me why
I come each day to view this blossom
But if they use My eyes
They would see she's simply awesome
All I do for her,
Is to visit, in my leisure
But what she does for me
Is fill my eyes and heart with pleasure
And if you care to share
The blessings that I yield
You need to get up early
To see the Sun's light
Fill this field
I had an awesome poem
Written in my head
Writing poems isn't my thing
So I thought it up instead
The poem had a kitten
A purple kitten too
The kitten had a mitten
That was completely blue
The kitty's blue mitten
Fell into the sea
While the poor little kitten
Cried in melancholy
Then the brave little kitten
Dove into the sea
To try to find the mitten
That made it happy
We waited and waited
In so much despair
Our fear escalated
So we said a little prayer
And the kitten came back up
With the mitten on its paw
How great! What luck!
That the kitten didn't fall!
And that was the poem
Written in my head
Writing poems isn't my thing
So I thought it up instead
Awesome Faith
Ask and you will maybe see,
Seek an you will bloody find,
Listen, you might bloody hear,
Shut your eyes, and you are blind,
Visualize and it appears,
Comes forth, out of your mind,
Close your mind,
It dissapears,
Faithless always comes behind,
Now aint that ***** :)
Don Johnson
Awesome autumn and glorious golds,
outstanding oranges and rufescent reds
combine colors and quilts quiver
as whispering winds and lamented leaves
shower scenes and layer lands-
profusely paint and gleamingly gift-
blaze of autumn before winter pall.

He created the universe
Darkness and gloom, He did disperse
All was utopia, before the curse
He's awesome !
He hangs the stars out every night
On a sinking boat, He removed fright
In a jail at midnight, He gave light
He's awesome !
He delivered Daniel from the lion's den
When He met lepers, He cleansed all ten
He promised that He would come again
He's awesome !
He encountered the woman at the well
Of her sordid past, He did tell
He gave her deliverance from sin's spell
He's awesome !
He can take a broken heart
His cleansing touch can impart
Strength, - to a new life start
He's awesome !
Never has He ceased to draw attention
Since the day of His ascension
Oh, - - - and did I mention ?
He's awesome !

Awesome Gems, As Were Set By Divine Measure
The Sun, a shimmering sky fired lake
Oft penetrating the soul, body and heart
No worries, shining glow it never fakes
Radiant beauty it freely imparts!
Who has never sang praises for its gifts
Those stirring dawns, its beauty basking in
Flow, oft as fine as a great guitar rift
Bequeathing, that which we beg for again!
The Sky, O' the grace of its flowing blue
Oft so deeply -setting hearts aflutter
In youth, we reached for it as we grew
Tho' from its raging storms we oft shutter
Awesome when we see heavenly night views
And dare to ponder in our wealth of dreams
Oft we'd fly up to live if we could choose
Float away in its bright galactic streams!
The Sun, the Sky, our earth's beautiful dome
Indeed, both a most sweet blessed treasure
Nature's allies - its bounty in this our home
Awesome gems, as were set by divine measure!

Rhyme,
( Dreams And Word Painting The Beauty That Came Forth )
Note:
This creation, inspired by a most blessed
and beautiful dream last night. A poet must
consider such golden treasure as is gifted
and rise to the occasion to preserve it in
poetic verses, to give back unto the world.
Even when ones muse says, "you are not up
to the task my friend"! One quite simply
must then so dare!
The Truth Of Love And Its Awesome Powers
Oft when dusk
crawls on in
its smells as
freshly rotten leaves
to some
its dark
its power is
a wonderful joy
as in those
hearts that
air spells
its
wickedness and
evils
sing....
But as shadows arrive
and their
powers
display
this heart
sends up
its wise
alert flags
and cries
man
the fort lad
for battles
will be waged....
As
twinkling star
spit down
rays of speeding
lights
some hearts
finds pleasure
and joy
for the darkness
it destroys
and the mind
sees
ravishing beauty
in the glowing
Heavens above...
Viewing such wonders
this soul
asks
our God
if the future
true love
shall be given
and then heart
says
sure it will
just be patient
and all
shall one day
shall come
hold fast
walk straight
and wait...
as I lay
seeing
galaxies dancing
in the sky
I imagine a
goddess
who will my
hand take
kiss me as a
lover and never
ever
leave me
our dawns
will see nothing
but love
and her beautiful
face
we live for each
other
and two hearts are
as one
bodies entwined
and love's
amazing, magical
and awesome
powers
absorbed...
Robert J. Lindley, free verse
may 2nd 1974
Rasp-rasp, rasp-rasp, the saw moves up and down;
because coffins are built better by hand.
My young daughter watches in her pink gown;
to make sure that it's right, you understand.
"It can't; it can't be a shabby old box,"
she cried out loud; "best wood, best silk, and, and;
he needs to be dressed in one of his frocks;
it has to be super awesome and grand!"
Her first small pet, Bunny, expired today.
Put in the box with love; sobbing, and tears
we'll surround it with buds, flowers; and pray;
while both stroking its soft downy big ears.
"Can we plant it now, dad?" She said with glee
"And will it grow into a rabbit tree?"
Without a doubt, mankind demonstrates proficiency in many ways. In our own way, we manage and master 'daylight saving time'. Every six months we change the numbers on our clocks, but
cannot change or set the sun. We set the numbers forward in the spring, but cannot change the moon. We adjust the time and 'fall back' in Autumn but cannot alter the stars.
With no assistance from us nor aid from the internet; with no alterations nor assembly required; with no adjustments nor repairs needed, God Almighty createded the sun, moon, stars, and the entire universe.

What an awesome God
we serve
The God of the universe
The one true living God
Nothing is impossible
for him
His love is divine and
genuine and true
He has a plan and
purpose for each one
of us
He is omnipotent
He is merciful
His love for us is
eternal and everlasting
Great is His faithfulness
God's angels have butterflies in their hands
A clean place for everyone
Yes .... by divine music
