Best Blink Of An Eye Poems


In a Blink of An Eye-Collaboration With Charmaine Chircop
Sitting on the window sill with the wind in my hair

I gaze up into the stars, pondering the great unknown.

Thinking back of that night, when I heard your first cry 

tears of joy filled my heart as we carried you home. 

Nervous and excited, a mother I had just become,

you were my angel, my being,...

In a Blink of An Eye
Did you just leave me in a blink of an eye?
My ears aren’t open to your heartless lies…
And your twisted lullabies…and your wretched goodbyes
Did you think you’re gonna get away with hating on me?
Oh how the time flies…I hear your cries as your voice dries
My fears are flying out the window…
I’m facing yesterday’s tomorrow’s sorrow

Don’t...

In the Blink of An Eye
Never having been in need for much for life has always been pretty  good
The whole family had kept in touch just like true families  should
And the job was great so the family was also doing very well
Seemed to have a pretty clean slate from what everyone could tell

Vacation every year and a brand...

    'in the blink of an eye"



the camera lense inside my eye decided to take flight
upon an adventurous love affair intending to ignite
while in the midst of viewing landscapes beautiful symmetry
capturing on eternal film every earthly mystery.

in Rome , the Trevi Fountain intoxicates by bell
enticing fond admirers to cast coins in wishing...

In a Blink of An Eye
Beneath the low muffles
Pedestrians shuffle
An average city day
Of hustle and bustle 
A lovely days stroll
With no place to go
Still the worlds moving fast 
But I'll remain slow
Because theres no movement
Unless I stand still
To give my heart a chance
To understand what it feels
The brilliance of designs
Engineered by our minds
And yet we lack passion 
To save our...

In the Blink of An Eye
In the blink of an eye; you appear... I look back;
In the blink of an eye, you are gone. 

Like a piece in your game, you so carelessly play;
Knowing not, your not more than the pawn.

All your lies?  Is it real?  Is there life deep in there?
Is there truth in your life? ...

In the Blink of An Eye
It really doesn't pay
To take life for granted every day
Because it can all be taken away
In the blink of an eye.

Life seems to just drift along
Like a never ending song
Until someone dear to you is gone
In the blink of an eye.

Time heals all wounds, they say
The pain will lessen every day
When someone you love is...

Blink of An Eye
Blink of an eye,
Buddha –
Achieved a state of perfect enlightenment
But this success carried,
Years of persistent determination
To look beyond the failures.

Blink of an eye,
Sprinter –
Upshots a sensational Victory
But this winning carried,
Months of sustained spiritedness
To look beyond the loneliness.

Blink of an eye,
Carnivorous plant –
Digests the insects with complete gratification
But this consummation carried,
Days of longanimity and diligence
To look...

Premium Member Childhood Is But a Blink of An Eye
(For my twin granddaughters)

In pursuit of life’s perfect dance
Never sombre was your welcome
Tender kiss when leaving at night,
Countless memories; come to light.

Many heady dreams made joyous
In pursuit of life’s perfect dance
With laughing eyes and gambol curls,
This: the golden dawn for my girls.

So soon the seasons in cycle
The distance between us enhance
In pursuit of life’s perfect...

In the Blink of An Eye
Our lives are so short
Like a fly we’re caught
In a web unable to get free;
We hurry here and there
Seems there’s no time to spare
In this maelstrom of misery.

Like a half-remembered dream
Or summer mist on a stream
Our days too soon melt away.
We keep on rushing around
Feet hardly touching the ground
The rule of the clock we obey.

Too...

Blink of An Eye
I may not know what it's like to have a child,
A miracle that makes the 9 months worth while.
I dont know if i can, But would like to have one someday,
That doesn't stop me from loving them all anyway.
They start off young and thats alright,
Best be careful.... They'll be grown in a blink of an...

The Blink of An Eye
( THE BLINK OF AN EYE )

With the wink of a flirty eye
And a toss of your silken hair
I know you will be by my side
I`ll give you my love to share

You return my playful wink
I see the sparkle shine through
I know I will be spending
My forever only with you

In the shadow of time
I give...

The Blink of An Eye
The chances that we get ~

You never know when they'll end?

In the blink of an eye

Your or them, and then....

Why is it so hard to see

So hard to be?

Awaken, from your dreams!

The hardest of hearts, is the hardest of all

A chain, a chain and a ball

Deeper and deeper and deeper, you fall....

Days turn to years...

In the Blink of An Eye
In the blink of an eye
In the space between 
One breath and then another
We go from love to hate
And back again.

Our love is like a roller coaster
Soaring high into the heavens
Then crashing back to earth
In a flash of hate and regret
Leaving us both dazed and confused.

Such is the thin line
Between love and hate....

In the Blink of An Eye
It happened late one night-
Just after twilight--
In the blink of an eye.

She found him lying there--
His eyes open, his white, white hair-
He was a rapist cut down--in the blink of an eye.

The dog was growling and mean,
Worse then any she'd ever seen--
But he ran away Fast--in the blink of an eye.

Things just seemed to happen...
