Best Boldly Poems

My training at Starfleet was over, they were now deploying me
I was over the moon when they called; I was full of glee
I entered the transporter room where I'd dematerialize
And within seconds I was aboard, the Starship Enterprise.

I was an expert on Klingonese; they needed...

How Dare We Ever So Boldly Speak Out

Let me write in obscure and chaotic words
stirring waters tepidly unknown
Yet my spirit refuses to admire such birds
or the massive flattery they are now shown
Why yes, some of us write from poetic hearts
with passion and not merely for...

With Twilight's Glow Nature Boldly Speaks

Soft twilight glow just before dawn's new birth
When sun and earth show, art for all its worth.
O' tender emotions- send not thy cries!
For Nature holds more than blue, blue skies!

As light sends shadows burrowing so deep
Furry animals wake from midnight...

Speaking Boldly Takes Courage
Miracle Man
6/2.2022

On occasion, I’ve been told Tom, use some tact,
because I say things bluntly, matter of fact.

No hedging, I’m a truthful shooter instead,
Never leaving one to question just what I said.

But intent, has never been to injure one’s pride,
but to get them...

Charge boldly charge
No quarter asked
From the valley
They stormed
An enemy 
Struck
As blood
A sideways rain
Blinding those
Left afoot
With horses
Shot
A hill to be
Taken
No more reason
Than that
Dead Captain
Face down
His riderless 
Mount
Chasing
Straight 
To the top
The summit
Crested
Invaders
Turned
With screams 
From the 
Boys
Now cries 
From the 
Men
As downward 
They start
Killing from
The back
With no 
Quarter...

We should never, ever
Suffer from timidity…
Erenow let us be
Both brash and bold…
For we’ll ne’er be
This young again (you see)
Nor will we e’er be so old

Let us take delight
In delayed goodnights
In long embraces
Hold so tight 
Take leisure in
The pleasure of
Long languid looks 
From limpid eyes

We should...

Because I will.  I did walk out boldly
l fear nothing
 for you save me 
tonight
I will remember that I walked into the dark with you
And you made light of all of the adversity
 You stretched out your wings 
You stopped those who would have...

He flew to my warmth; moth to a flame
But I tamed the flames of my fire
when I felt the heat of his fingertips
Boldly, he came closer to kiss my lips
and his touch became the heat of desire

For a death, this moth was not to blame

Shatner's Star Trek: a true break-out show
Well, except for the red shirts, you know?
With their food replicators,
Universal translators,
To infinitives, they'd boldly go.

Walk confidently into the daybreak its light resting  softly upon your eyes

Embrace the day the year ahead 
in determined hope surmise

Let any thought that robs your peace
Swiftly let it go 

To the abyss of nothing from whence it arose
for reasons only heaven could know

Make...

BOLDLY BECAUSE
          
I rode into town on a white steed with a lethal gun in hand
I slaughtered all their numbers until I’d kill the last man who could stand
“why would  I do such a thing?”...

His dad’s a lifelong Trekkie with a line he likes to say
Tod always hoped he’d get to use the line himself one day
On his birthday Lucy met him by the classroom door
She said I’m gonna give you what you’ve been asking me for
Tod said he’d...
