Best Being Poems

You are a human being they told me, something you should treasure
But isn't a human being the only animal who kills for pleasure?
Man's inhumanity to man, a crime like no other
The first family on earth had brother killing brother
We are power hungry bastards from the...

When you came to me the earth revolved then stood still
dressed jewel of purest sunlight circled in gold mere reflections 

Through the oceans wings sailing inside waves embrace 
we rise and fall drawing from a breathless air filled with Peace 

Caught up within the sparkle...

to all who know and love,
      and who may not know at all,
i have told tales of adoring loss
and romance utterly grand-
building walls with broken sills, 
falling apart at the seams to well,
not knowing which path to choose
but
brilliantly radiating verses...

I have lived and loved and laughed a lot
I have remembered and have forgot
I have worked and found some time to play
I have tried my best most every day

I have stood but often tend to fall
I have heeded every needful call
I have felt my heart...

Sometimes we all say things we don’t mean
Private thoughts to be kept inside that should never be seen
Then others join to be part of the scene
Using nasty words that are designed to demean

Scared to speak out for fear of ridicule
How can other people be so...

Beautiful angel a soul's destination flies
High above on gossamer wings delicately 
Circling between heaven and earth as soul keepers

Eclipsing the light seraph twitches softly gaze
Touching inside one bond never to be broken
An angelic message shown to the earth dwellers

A celestial sphere nacreous spirit falling 
Grace...

The one thing that all humans crave most of all
is the feeling of being loved by
a person that you love too
nothing else will do
that much is
true 
it feels great
when someone loves you
there’s no reason to feel blue
for your lonely heart has been given 
the one...

If your behavior is a reflection
     of what others say you are,
          you’ll behave as they like
               because...

It’s not that hard to just be kind
to everyone you meet
While shopping at the grocery store
or walking down the street

Just wish someone a happy day
then wait a little while
And you will see before too long
they’re sure to wear a smile

Now lend someone a helping hand
when...

This Current Life of Mine
          Created by the Supreme Almighty for His pleasure, I bear His image with body, soul, and spirit --- fashioned through His omnipotent omniscience by His unconditional love.  Indeed, I am...

By different lovers I’ve been kept,
some skillful and a few inept.
I always respond, unafraid.
I rather enjoy being played.

A Spaniard picked me up one time.
His classic strumming was sublime.
Notes poured from me like a cascade.
I rather enjoy being played.

That man released me, and soon I
was picked...

Being Your Eyes for Swell 2007
Swell: Currumbin Sculpture Festival
 
For Fred
Picture us arm in arm, strolling,
the crunch of sand underfoot,
the scent of sea air, the touch of sea wind
on our skin, again on the beach at Currumbin.
 
Your eyes are failing now
yet, with my words...

Daddy wants to touch and kiss,
Being invisible would be bliss
No more hiding behind locked doors
No more the screams of father’s whores
Run through the woods to cry in peace
Maybe then the beating would finally cease
	I could live forever, but for memories
	Being invisible would be bliss
Sob in...
