Best Borders Poems
Borders In the Borderless SocietyWaft borderless borders;
within;
The dividing line that separates the free
and the slaves;
where strangers come and go
but the cage is never lifted.

Just Like a Child Without Borders Just like a child
I toss pebbles in the stream
Each pebble is a wish
Every ripple is my dream
I dream of running freely
my face against the wind
Hear it's million voices
and the cicadas sing.
I dream of climbing treetops
to a majestic world
a world of happy faces
where...

BordersSecure our borders!
Good fences make good neighbors.
Make it clean and strong
Our earth is colored in patches
Of the countries, its entities
Document every plant, animal, and person
Measure all the air, water, and breathing
Make everything invisible, visual
Experience life, cleanly divisible
Since we can't respect differences
We must make great walls
To...

Those Who Cross Bordersthose who cross borders
above or below the radar gaze
connecting here to there
reminding us of all-ness
bind the planet's wounds
with footstep stitches
scars of wars, past & present
tears wash ashore
hands begging to be held
a little human kindness
calls out for respite
relief from dread
the poverty of coin and bill
signifying nothing...

We need to open the borders
It's time for business to thrive once more
Tourism definitely experienced suffering enough

My Scottish Borders ExperienceSpending a late autumn break
in the Scottish Borders countryside
though the climate then so cloudy
didn't deter as I got on my stride
Galashiels was our first base
staying at aq lovely accommodation
visited Sir Walter Scott's own home
stood in awe, such a poetic occasion
There was a wonderful tapestry
on display...

Pushing Beyond Your BordersI thought
I believed
I was beyond the reach of light
Trapped there within your darkness
You eclipsed my wonder
My innocence
My hope
You wrapped me fully
Confiscating my will
Smothered my unrealized self
Draped me in your need
Subjugated me to your narrative
Then in the distance
A flicker
A tiny dot
Beyond your optics
Your contrived paranoia
Your insatiable...

Bubbling, Brimming, Beyond BordersWisdom from above, enmeshed in Love, comes complete
How then make more wisdom flow ... I didn't know
But then the best teacher discovered this dithering fool, me -
O how this Teacher renews my mind, unwinds the dark and dank in me
From my belly a refreshing flow...

BordersThey always wanted the best out of me.
"You have to be the best at everything."
When I fail, I was drowning in the sea.
I never have the chance to spread my wings.
People always compared me to a king
Graceful, wise, caring, smart and talented
but like...

Love Beyond Mundane Borders RumiLast night was a warm night
I could not sleep, rather I tossed and turned
My heart was empty, so was my life
Yet, I did feel love flowing all around
So I woke up and choose to bask in the moon's light
Contemplating such a beauty, I no more...

Crossing BordersBeing one of the volunteers for medical mission,
It feels good for my dedicated service in action,
No need to cross on borders just to help other people,
They are just in the corner to ask medicine for a cure.
Doctors who always there for the illegal immigrants,
Dedicate their...

No More BordersNo more borders
No closed gates
Everyone welcome; everyone come
It doesn't matter what you've done,
or what you believe; you will be
received.
We will take care of you, regardless
of the cost; not to mention our loss.
Evil's vail shall be lifted, and come
upon us quickly. Violence,...

Border TownI dwelt once in a dreamy town, my land was alongside the border,
In a region of natural beauty, next to a crystalline body of water.
From the jade hills of my land, I could clearly see the other side,
Like black midnight sees the stars, when they've...
