Best Cause Poems

I'm so far gone and loving every
minute of it, I'm  here to stay
You brighten up my day in your
own special way.
I know you're not perfect and 
have shown me  most of your 
flaws,
Understand this,I love you for the  
man you are now,...

          to map my spirits journey of primary urge to me.
With confidence of honest feel comes the promise

It’s raining. . . . again.

As I set at the key board not saying a word.
I feel like a muted, silly old . . . nerd.

For in the past, it’s oft been said:
I talk too much. Be quiet instead.

It’s also been mentioned as I’ve voiced...

A young man carrying a green duffel bag
over his shoulder shifts when he walks.
Off to war for our country and flag.
No military knowledge with little talk.

Enemy troops marched across the bridge, 
with tanks, and hundreds of machine guns led.
As he sat dug in along and...

An I am of Love is precept approved,
Doesn’t need approval of concepts' inept,
Doesn’t need the nod of man/woman, only God,
By precept of love’s absolve soul’s love is kept! 

Seeing Love’s being is uncompromising,
Not of double mind concepts non-comprising, 
Within one’s own precept love is the...

There isn't any reasoning
With a soul that's lost their way. 
Clouded by an air of deluded thought
But then the devil saved the day. 

No one seems to understand him
Not in the way that I do. 
For when you lose all meaning of life
Any way ahead...

Patriot's Cause, America's Freedom

America; here was found a shore on which to cast
fateful voyage , ship speeding at full mast
patriots true to historic cause
world now gives great applause

In this land of mountains heaped in pride
Paule Revere raced his famous ride
over cobbled streets in dark of...

can I make you pregnant
so that we can at least
have a daughter or a son
it sounds less tackful
but as we have begun
all the obstacles have gone
and the strains of lust 
has loosened
I thought to be one
as father and mother
might allow us to be
together as a...

A day can make a harder week 
A week can make a month of pain 
A month of pain a year so bleak 
It feels like drowning in the rain 

These are the little riddles in the middle of insane 

A little bit can satisfy...

So it had come to this
Death, at a bullets hiss

Hot shrapnel from o'er head
More brave boys joined the dead.

Eager, so full of pride
On the barbed wire they died

In their droves young men fell
Damn the cause... war is hell.

From outside, I hear you calling me,
with an urgency not heard before.
I go to the window, but can't see,
I run downstairs, and out the door.

It is misty, the evening light is dim.
I don't see your familiar shadow,
only the outline of a dead tree limb.
Your voice,...

Chart your firm cause with heart that knows,
Align your heart with mind set free;
Use primal force to set the show,
Soar as you start to truly see;
Explore the way that seeds fond space.
Affluent with peace that lovely call,
Nurture each day the dream you trace;
Deed follows ease...

Where did the Stars come from, 
and how were they formed?
Galaxies, upon groups of galaxies.
Solar systems with moons.
How? Know the first cause, "God."

Time and space came to being.
Space and time ever expanding.
Light shining in darkness.
Mortal men able to be seeing and reading.
How? Know the first...
