Best Communicate Poems

with a quick look of an eyes, we point and convey 
just as the tilt, juster a hey someone is over there, now look this way
to a suitably and noticeably hand, that gives a, come hither wave

waiting,wanting folding arm that wrap with warm embrace
saying hello

Designed To Communicate

Poetic  justice often can communicate;
Never humiliate or ever to prevaricate;
Open a mind;
Curiosity find;
And much more interest in you create.

To me, this is what the name of the game is.
How do I wiggle between and weave through
all of the Trump and Hillary supporters...

They may not  talk like you and I do
They have a way of letting their feelings be known
Rather it is a mate, foe or friend
When a old dog wags his tail at you
Letting you know his friendship is being shown
He will fight for you...

Last time we spoke was at your window
I'm concerned for you though I'm sure it didn't show.

Don't trust communication electronically, 'cause that's not me.
The words that were written... I wasn't even allowed to see.

Take your rage out on me, I deserve it.
The whole situation is...

Girl, when we do not communicate with each other properly 
We tend to push love away 
Joy turns into darkness 
Things have got to change 
We need to open up to one another 
There must be a form of telepathy 
Or else, we will both...

Poet Identity

In conversations,
In biographies,
In resumes…all poets are writers,
    but not all writers are poets.
On a careful look into the mirror, when not looking
    for wrinkles, but staring deep into the reflected  
   Image as if it...

Merlin the cranky cat
sat around getting fat.
Wanting to be heard
he mewed and purred. 

He yowled and howled
and even growled
all with the same result.
He felt it quite the insult.

He snarled and hissed
What had he missed?
He tried a mewl
and lost his cool.

Short of a caterwaul
what should he...

we often lie about 
what we're thinking

deny deny deny
unwilling to divulge
our private thoughts
our inner secrets

not wanting
to be violated

our thoughts are ours
flawed and broken
right or wrong
as they may be

they're ours
and no one else's

we'll share
to a degree
but only when safe
is how we feel

resounding echoes in
caves of timelessness
my hands caressing walls of rock 
never kissed by daylight
walls that speak loudly
of proud ancestors
immortalizing their
essence and
existence
painting
dwelling
hunting
sleeping
making tools
raising families
communicating 
telling stories
leaving messages
their legacy
much like us
in many ways
yet so very different

Likes are nice,
But Retweets are sweet.

Faves are all the rave,
But Retweets are hard to beat.

(Tribute to the writing style of American poet Ogden Nash and his poem "Reflections on Ice Breaking" written in the...

you don’t know me
but I’m a kindred spirit
my poetry is the bridge
I build to reach outward
through space and time

deep down I long to share
my longings my passions
my dreams my insecurities
I know you’re somewhere out there
and I love you wherever you are
as I strive to reach...
