Best Beaming Poems
look at me here
a moment in my past
I hardly recognize myself
looking radiant
beaming
sure of myself
I barely remember being
that young
my future’s
script unwritten
hopeful
optimistic
confident
there I am
before the scars of time

When the sky rains down in jelly bean lights
Colors bright, multiplying themselves through lightning bolts
Seen through their candy cracks opened loud
Like clouded green glass glowing thick
Glowing wide jello wavering in a blinding flash
Across the landscape kissed
Happiness smooths over coconut sweet trees
Orange sugar slices take on a smile candy cotton
Hurried up above, going nowhere fast
Not in a frenzy or need for speed
Shapes of clouds in the breeze
Sun light yellow orange meanders
Rainbow bands on grand canvasses arrive
Bursts into life over new seeds landed sown as sugar cane
Plants shaped like trumpets sound crisp golden notes
In Spring they sway as delicacies
Fill up the sandy hills with syrup sweet aromas
Flavors melt
Melodies come sharp with deep dark chocolate
Swirl us into thick rich passions kiss caressed
Brings us to our knees
Keen to the taste of joy
Drums strike up a fever speaking from the heart
On the horizons wide smile as laughter caught
Between each beat comes sugary sweet breezes
Through fertile trees full of the reddest apples
Delicately lifted in deliciousness on Easter bliss
Confection powder converts grass into candy
Covers every misstep covered in the past by snow
Sensibility goes out the window falling over thrilled
Children trip over themselves, jump marshmallow high
A springboard to heaven gliding by
Just within the reach of kites made out of caramel popcorn
Babies also take a chance and reach with all their might
Jelly beans beaming lights touch the soul right to the core
Jump! Take every color candied treat
Before the streets drown them in water melons mouth
Swallow up the last sweet flavors drifting down
Jelly beaming lights roll in on thunder clouds

Sunshine and showers,
Bring beautiful flowers,
Beaming out,
Each grow; each sprout,
Joining our world here,
Giving a scent to share,
Each stem from below,
The children watch slow,
For its spring time,
The seeds are worth a dime,
Making this land,
Worthwhile with hand,
Gardening tools,
Are brought to schools,
Children make this beauty,
The flowers start to bloom with duty,
As they become more,
Starting from the core,
Drawn out in light,
Watch closely from distance in sight.

My woman’s spirited disposition
casts dreamy masculine awakenings
which offer delightful fascination---
her laughter bestowing iridescence.
Through cycles’ darkening consequences
she provides warmhearted sanctuary—
a lighthouse enfolding disturbances
through graceful affection, eternally.

All of this just so happened
With the saying of one simple phrase
"Beam me up Scotty"
Was all The Captain had said
But all that came aboard
Was Captain Kirk's toupee
Never did they see James again
After that fateful day
Now Captain Kirk's toupee
Is the one that's running the ship
Barking out its orders
From where the Captain once sat
It's little wonder the toupee and the crew
Don't see eye to eye
As it continues throughout its screaming
Can't you see I need more warp drive
With Scotty hollering back
I'm giving her all that's she's got
Thinking the whole time the Captain's toupee
Would make a good galley mop
Spock while all this is happening
Struggles to keep a straight face
Which is really hard for a Vulcan to do
When dealing with a demanding toupee
Of course like James T. Kirk
His toupee has a thing for alien gals
Which leaves the ladies throughout the galaxy
All with a bad taste and hair in their mouths
And not to mention the trouble with the Klingon's
Now they have no idea what to say
How in the world do you wage war
When your arch enemy is a bad toupee
It's little surprise this all lead to a mutiny
Of the Starship Enterprise crew
The day they grabbed the toupee
And ran to the transporter room
They all wondered what took them so long
The idea it was so blatantly simple
As they beamed away Kirk's toupee
Down to the surface of the Planet of Tribble's

Through tomorrow's beaming hopeful eyes,
life's sun shines with optimism
and will continue to set
over the horizon
in the midst of these
uncertain times.
We'll walk through
any
fire.

AT THREE TEN AM I GOT OUT OF BED.
I RUBBED MY EYES AND SHOOK MY HEAD.
I WENT TO THE KITCHEN TO QUENCH MY THIRST.
ON MY WAY THERE I STRUCK BY A BURST.
IT CAME RIGHT THROUGH THE ROOF AND FOCUSED ON ME.
IT TOOK SEVERAL SECONDS. BUT I FINALLY BROKE FREE.
I'M COMPLETELY AWAKE, NOW AT THIS TIME.
AND YES I WAS, BLOWN RIGHT OUT OF MY MIND.
MY HART WAS POUNDING, BUT THAT DIDN'T MATTER.
MY QUEST FOR SOME WATER, HAS COMPLETELY BEEN SHATTERED.
BUT MY CURIOSITY GOT THE BEST OF ME.
I WASN'T SURE I SEE WHAT I SEE.
I TOOK A STEP FORWARD AND ENTERED THE BEAM.
IT SEEMED I WAS FLOATING IN SOME KIND OF DREAM.
IT'S SOME KIND OF BEAM, BUT, INSIDE IT SEEMS TWISTED.
I LOOKED ALL AROUND BUT NO INSTRUCTIONS WERE LISTED.
ONE HOUR LATER I WOKE ON UP THE FLOOR,
WHEN I THOUGHT I HEARING A KNOCK AT THE DOOR.

It was in wildlife that my soul was born,
Enjoying serenity under the night stars.
My heart was never designed to lorn,
Along paths not yet trodden, no scars.
To struggle through brittle stones,
Subtle shades surround lush trees.
Whose dulcet azure dusk hones,
Sets blaze to all that is in the breeze.
And when it's dark outside at night,
Sate a bite of the night sky in sight.
To recall my soul, just close your eyes,
Set my heart close to yours, and rise.
I searched for stones and oaks,
On the edges of my stumbling feet.
To tell the truth, I once searched for jokes,
Walking between your heartbeats.
So plump and round on a summer night,
The aroma of fields fried in sunshine fills the air.
Inhale and hold your hand to your spright,
When you search for me, I'll be there.

Beaming with hopeful bliss
My heart faces challenges midst grace
As God assures triumph*
I claim against mocking doubt.
With varied tasks along different roles
My faith remains steadfast
Striving to fulfill assignments
I accept against attacking weariness.
Grateful for privilege to reach-out
My spirit persists, inspired by divine cheer
Sharing very best with zest
Prayerfully seeking for miracles
I expect against struggling commitment.
*2Corinthians 2:14 - Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.

Precious little flower of
Jehovah God Almighty
or is it
shining little star
so bright
Yes to my surprise
here you are
a gift from Jehovah
all for the likes of I
to teach
to hold
to love
with all of my might
Oh precious little
man
all of the glory to
Jehovah God Almighty
melded 'longside
His Son Jesus Christ
Yesss
there is the greatest
Love of All
Yes
ours
a beaming reflection
of
the light

This translucent beam of light
Transmits waves that touches your heart
Creating warm feelings of love
It glows through your eyes
Then moves to the one you love
It reflects back to you as a mirror would do
Touching your heart then receiving love
The glow emitted brings a powerful heat
That warms your whole body with love
Once these two beams of light meet
Their light shines with passions of love
Creating this mixture of love
Every so often this mirror will crack
Interrupting these beams of love
Repairing the mirror takes a blast of heat
That melts these two mirrors back together
If you turn off the switch to the beam
You will lose this refection of love
Causing a darkness that will shatter these mirrors
You will have lost all your meaning of love

Boiling the kettle making a drink
Standing alone with time to think
Dishes to clean floor to brush
Where do I start I need a push
Pull yourself together and tackle the mess
Dig out those marigolds and get rid of that stress
Kitchen chaos can spiral out of control
Not facing the problem, you will not reach that goal
Keep on top of that daily cleaning
You will burst with pride and always be beaming
Not being afraid to invite your friends for a get together
Your newly cleaned kitchen looks like it’s had a makeover
Proud and excited things are looking up
Do not let old habits slip it will be back to looking at muck
Its easy to become lazy again over time
Stick to your regime and your kitchen will be fine
