Best Clearly Poems

Sighted
Vision, perception
Staring, observing, gazing
Ability to see everything, total visual impairment
Stumbling, groping, touching
Darkness, sightless
Blind

i thought i could see clearly
clearly was an overstatement

there you were
an intruder in my concealment
leading me astray
insidiously blurring my vision

yet i pursued you without hesitation
uninterested in the warnings
how could i be so careless?

you brainwashed me
fed me lies upon lies
how could i be so stupid?

you made...

I clearly embrace inner peace

Written By Dean Masciarelli

I clearly embrace inner peace

With humility and grace

In this journey that I must face

And I will continue to express

My gratitude in life 

Through gentle acts 
of kindness

By loving others 

With compassion 

And understanding 

And true...

Rejuvenating world 
A sun of orange, yellow, and red.
Blue bird tree, ebony swirled
Artist clearly has creative head

Exhilarating magic
Whimsical ideas profound
Spiral snow fantastic
Appreciation all around

Circulating in my head
Visions of pure whimsy
Delicate colors, clearly fed
Artwork anything but flimsy

Rejuvenating world
Makes my soul want to sing
My dendrites clearly twirled
Magic...

Let me speak clearly with you
dear religious and atheist Trumpians,

A fool in executive office
is a leader
only in foolish directions.

A rich thief
is the worst thief
as survival motives
are absent,
so self-thrival motives
remain pick your pocket rampant.

An intellectual prostitute
to feel-good AmericaFirst politics
is a populist whore,
competing for economic gain
after self-deluding...

Spoke clear words

One year when our children were young
We took a trip to the Black Hills area
Where we stopped to our cave
That was advertized to be one of the deepest in the world
At one point
The guide turned off his lantern
So we could experienced the absolute darkness
Two people...

What Bell Rings Out So Clearly For You?

Hells bells, the ringing always carries on
Life be it beautifully great still endures
Ravages, we in this dark world, are cast upon
Temptations, great multitude of dark allures.
What bell rings out so clearly for you?

Massively sad are the long and...

You’re so insane and crazy when you talk to yourself
Feeling hazy in humid summer, overheating myself 
I feel like you keep talking my ears off till they bleed
I need you to back off…leave me alone…take heed!

I remember when we got along so well 
Right now,...

Beauty! Inspired by the eyes of God
Vividly beautiful visions in my mind
My senses are awake  - I feel , I see
The luster - the elegance of the charming rose
I recollect the memories as they linger
Petal by petal - breathtaking the bud
I touch the velvety...

When I see the flowing fields of wheat and the clouds just above
It is the Lord's Name I will repeat in the seeing of His great love
Every bird in the sky, all the unique creatures living in His sea
All I can do is sit back...

Urban Sonnet

Is it so hard to say the things you feel?
Why seal up thoughts in words that beg for truth?
I braced myself to read a languid spiel
and first assayed to read it as a youth.
When that was done, I scoured it like a sleuth
and found...
