Best Common Sense Poems

Now I’m thinking, while sitting on a chair,
There is something that I would like to share
I fear my mind is dense
Can’t make out common sense
How come they call it common if it’s rare?

When people aren't right
 I head for the door.
 I no longer ask, why, or what for??
 When people escalate
 I look for the gate, because
 you know things aren't going that great..
 I did not cause their anger
 I did not cause their pain

I'm concerned with the lack of common sense;
it's notably missing when needed most.
And though its absence comes at our expense,
nothing else can match it, not even close.

It once mitigated anger and greed;
lately, however, it's been a no-show.
I pray for its return in thought and deed;
if...

Light ribbons in one eye we fear  
Precede headache pain that's severe
Drug firms clearly bribe
Physicians to prescribe
Migraine meds but I'll imbibe beer

The death of common sense has been under reported lately 
As a coups d'état has taken the world by storm.

Now 
Upon his throne "stupidity" holds council with callousness, greed , hate and war ,all of whom smugly agree it's seem like a darker future a...

Cannot find it anywhere, that I look,
One has it when they are born to know.
Many think they have it, from a book.
Many feel, they have it, with such glow.
Only thing that can be lost and never found,
Never to be returned, thoughts are bound.

Sense of commonality,...

Choosing a course of action that you have
Options may be abound but are they right
Making the right decission should be easy
Maybe you should just stop to think about
Once you take that course of action do you
Need to think it through before you take it

Common Sense

Common sense putting dents in ya system,
Upon Zen, forgotten Presidents and Christians,
Yeah I dismiss them, I’m a contender, defender of my realm,
Surrender ya pretender, center of reality? Fallibly conceptualized, 
Here ya find my rhymes, a society offender, wanted dead or alive,
The Five O, Oh...

When she grew up and went to school
She was very smart…but a fool…
She wanted to learn everything
She studied all that books could bring.
But it was made clear so very soon…
Her common sense was out of tune.
Her book knowledge while oh so good
Think on her feet?...

Common sense once rebuffed her close friend—
Sense of humour gone nigh out of hand,
The dame now looking tame,
The dance they danced looked lame,
Yet, patched up when, what a perfect blend!

No one is asking questions
afraid what some might say
Everything's become taboo
why you can't even pray
Say anything, about someone
in question form, I mean
They'll try to have you chastised
and make a great big scene

Tolerance? There's no such thing
you're either "left" or "nil"
There is no room for common...

Who claims to be the casualty distorting a mother's right 
firstly to be addressed for what it means 
begin with the truth it never fails justice 

To address mass murder for what choice it claims to be 
abortion's the only way to lose one soul...

I cannot tell you that I love you, still…
I’ll love you how good wisdom says I may!
I’ll take our friendship for the better pill,
And put romances in the drawer, to stay.
It seems, though tragedies do dog us all,
Still, happiness resides even in the dark!
For diamonds...
