Best Coexisted Poems

FAITH NOT TO BE SOLD
 Joseph O. Adebanjo

I have seen pain, kissed pain, lived with pain, overcame pain
Deep in my oceans of pain, existed bliss, and coexisted the Son
I saw the spasmodic ray of hope
Flickering touch of faith upheld me
I swam in my cryptic ocean...

With the invention of man came a myriad of difficulty and distress. 
When the first australopithecine gained it bipedal wings and set sail on the journey to societal grandeur, origin was not an issue.
Complex societies emerged and spirituality often served as a road map to...

" She was born in 219 A.D.,
I met her in 235 when she was 16 years old.
I was working hard with her father as a mercenary
from a Belgium territory, trying to persuade a chieftan named Horaic
to attack the Roman garrison west of the river.
Tamitha had...

O yes, that is fine day
For fishing in mountain river
When weather is bad, 
And raining from early gray dawn. 
When world look so pity and doleful
Maybe for artists and poets
But so nice for big and hefty fishes.
They are swimming out 
from deep and cold bottoms...

Whether life or death coexist in us
Nothing changes the ability to change a fraction of this life itself
Nowhere is safe as they say
But into a cataclysm of this magnitude 
Might other intelligent aspects of life itself be deceived
Nothing in our hands is concrete for the...

My intentions are not preventive actions, just decisions made.  Only if I had given more thoughts to right and wrong choices that has crossed me.  Maybe contemplate a better plan that could have coexisted with both side of my thought process.  My...

We were one yesterday
We coexisted yesterday
Dreams were achieved
Roads were built 
By my grandmother' side,
we sang a great song
Our parents cohabited a barn-
Unity they stood,
Our children drank from one cup
The moon was their mind
We never fought each other
Now, we are enemies;
enemies of ourselves
You chased out my...

THE AFRICANS OF OLD.




The Africans of old
At night, slept and of Africa 
For Africa they dreamt
Of a day to come 
When Africans will be free 
Uhuru Uhuru Uhuru
From every form of enslavement 
And oppressions. 

The Africans of old
In peace and harmony coexisted

An altered state of reality,
Could there really be a duality?
Who determines if everything is twisted?
I always thought everything just coexisted.
It’s just a matter of perception,
Outsiders just see a complexion.
It really comes down to perspective,
It’s all subjective.
Who are these fellow creatures?
They claim to be our teachers.

A Rottweiler  Shepard mix
longsuffering had proven to be
With the Doberman pup, a red one,
won on a gambling spree

Rocky the mix and BoBo
 coexisted for a time
As any two male dogs can manage
till BoBo reached his prime

Suddenly all manners
right out the door
Or respect for the...

If I search through old memories, shaking dust from visions long filed away, I can see scenes from my childhood. Whenever I am feeling old, I pull a few out, polish them up, and put them in a frame for a while. A constant rotation...

cobblestones filled in with rain
crowded by thirsty mourning doves
just down the road a bit
connects the noted Canterbury lane

flower pots hanging by the windows
of a small Tinkerville hamlet
elder cobblers are heard tapping
their soft leather shoes

Maidens selling fresh bakeries
at the Tea & Cake market
a blacksmith striking the...

Poet will use all it takes 
To travel our works all over the world
Meeting poet celebrities with handshakes
The ones figurative words twirled 
Monsters of us flowing lakes 

Our works will run connections in water 
Illuminating the littles fishes, escape route
From sharped eyes shark hunting freshwater...

Hours, days, weeks,
Years, decades, lifetimes,
I wasted on me...
Thought I was smart...
Yet I couldn't see...
Misery or joy,
Coexisted inside,
My choice which to feel,
And which to hide

And I chose wrongly,
Superficial existence
Lived I,
Now matter how hard,
I could never figure out why,
That twisting, painful
Feeling inside my soul,
Overwhelmed my life,
And in...

The town lost its street maps,
new plots of land appeared, houses were built
where just yesterday there had been none.
Her world seemed relocated,
changed, as if it had been redrawn.

They had not shared their likes or interests
they had not even shared an equitable life,
and at times had...
