Best Connection Poems
I travel back to a nascent time,
when bairn girl sojourner twins arrived.
Born from their earth mother’s womb,
embodied by Mother Nature’s bosom.
Goddesses embraced by the Universe.
Dualism beyond the physical world
Their essence of silvery stars,
sends love’s chemical reactions.
Their beatific smiles so warm and inviting,
and magical thinking inspires all.
Illuminating pure energy that soars from your light,
spreads wildly around, igniting the night.
The delightful bond inside you both, heaven's call.
Qualities, talent, and intuition divine,
Their existence, always sunshine.
Inseparable even when miles apart
They're always in each other’s hearts.
You’re always here in mine.
Your laughter dances like the morning breeze,
A gentle balm that heals my hidden pain.
Your touch, a summer's kiss upon the trees,
Brings life to places cold as winter's reign.
Within your gaze, a universe unfolds,
A symphony of stars that brightly gleam.
In your embrace, my weary soul finds hold,
As if the world exists within a dream.
Each whispered word ignites a tender spark,
A language only hearts in love can know.
You light my path when all around is dark,
And teach my soul the way it yearns to grow.
Forevermore, our hearts shall beat as one,
Bound by the light of love that ne’er is done.
True love is a connection
a recognition of each other's soul
a respect that only grows
True love is when exposing vulnerability
is not a sign of weakness
but an act of total trust
True love knows no borders
it can even survive death
because love is stronger than grief

A feller I met with a twinkle in his eye
Quite the enigma you see.
Said, "I ain't got no dough... not a single penny!"
Said he, "ain't got no cash... not a single plug for a cup o' tea."
"Couldn't buy you no drink / not even a dime's worth of time
Wouldn't dare ask you for no drink in my silly whine."
"Never saw nothin' finer... not a sight to behold
Then, your fancy top hat... not plated with gold.
In this fine conversation... though, I confess,
I don't know nothin' much... not more or less."
"Don't know nothin' much 'bout music... not a single note
But begged the whole bar not to leave me croak
In this sea of confusion... though- I confess
I ain't got no answers, not more or less."
Confused, I just stared / mouth agape and wide
"So are you broke or not?" I finally couldn't hide.
He winked / then chuckled / a sly knowing grin
"Don't you fret none... my friend / I ain't never givin' in!"
"Never learned nothin' clever / that ain't no surprise
But I sure ain't unhappy, not with tears in my eyes!"
A poet / a pauper / a prince; his stories spun gold
Ain't nothin' like his tales / never gettin' old.
We made a bond that don't nobody understand
A friendship ain't never been seen in no other land.
I am but an ancient tree
Upstanding in my singularity
Ordained by the forest of my forefathers
I am full spread reaching for the sun
The light of 4.6 billion years never done
The source of all things living
Blanketed in the first snow of countless seasons
Branches laden with the weight of age and gravity
Ancestral roots of infinite years
Entwined with the pathway of my elders
I reach deep into the richness of my mother earth
Binding me to the womb of all that's known
A fertile union of exquisite definition
Conceiving the severity of truth
To harvest the heart of compassion
A simple white dream
A prophet's decree
I am captive to move and sway
With the purity of this moment
Drifting within the winds of wisdom
And timeless certainty
And in this time and space
I become one with that destiny
To be or not in the realm of its tranquility
To breathe with the rhythm and harmony
The beautiful cadence I dance to
The tick-tock clock of eternity
Some days pour like water from a teapot...
Other days like thick syrup from a spoon...
When you miss someone so much you can't stop...
Those feelings in your stomach bounce to a sad tune...
Your eyelashes batting to a sound I have to write too...
No time for missing a step or a shortcut to this stage...
To play in sync we must share our thoughts for what to do...
Your not as close as I would like, but our connection can't be caged...
You know I miss you now more then my usual way, without you in
my arms these words are my only say...
I will write you a song to be my start, follow the notes and drift
back to my heart...
So much is lost in time.
Words are taken in the wrong meaning.
Soon te bridge is but a scar of memory.
Sweet moments but a fargone reflection none of which
I choose to recall.
the laughter stale as the beer in this smoke filled room.
Music heals but stabs us deep.
Cents for the pain.
Numbers the tune.
Her body is there but not for anyone to
truley know.
the backward thougts with forward visions.
The emptyness my home hollow in the aftreglow.
My return is long overdue and to soon my exit.
A thief of emotion that exist only within my pen.
Has it been lost all over agian?
Peace
Quiet reflection
Internal connection
External reaction
Time for visual extraction
Wisdom from the pearl
Of harmonious being
Searching and seeking
For the truth of life's meaning
Bright colors of the aura
Shine through the soul
Rainbows on the heart
Beaming spirit
Senses are awakened
Lost souls foresaken
Looking for past loves
To release the pain from before
Deep memories to explore
Internal calm
Path to harmony and joy
For now and tomorrow
Peace quietly reflects
The spiritual storm
Inner Connection
No longer torn
When you're feeling all alone,
And things aren't going right
Look for that warm glow inside,
To get you through the night!
That's the love I give to you
It's yours to always keep
To have and hold all the time,
Even when you sleep!
If you look inside your heart,
It won't be hard to see
Love as deep as all of that,
Could come from only me
That's the way I do it,
If I feel down and blue
I reach deep into my heart,
To touch the part that's you
I have half of your heart
And you have half of mine
That's our soul connection
For now and for all time!
My guardian seraph way up high in heaven’s sky,
you have beautiful ivory wings, who taught you to fly?
I considered you my angel while you were alive and well,
I guess through death angels never whisper goodbye.
Now on a golden mount next to the Lord you dwell.
You were my big sister and raised me from birth,
guiding me in life and edifying my self-worth.
It’s like you knew you’d always watch over me,
even after God decided for you to leave this earth.
Then again, angels were always born to fly free.
You are my messenger above showing me adoration,
leaving signs and symbols of love and veneration.
God entrusted you to take care of me down here,
and yet from up there you still bestow alleviation.
Even though you are miles away I still feel you near.
You offer assertive and genuine protection
in ways that enhance our perpetual connection.
Defending me until my ultimate dying day,
and showering me in cascades of pure affection.
You’ve given me peace in times of disarray.
My sweet guardian seraph who loves me so,
sometimes I wonder, “why did you have to go?”
But now I know that God had a sweet plan for you,
to carry on your angelhood and help me grow,
proceeding to do all the perfect miracles angels do.
So when you hear me calling out to you in peace,
just remember how you made my pain cease.
Thank you for being my angel full of resilience,
and making sure my heart is always at ease.
For you are strong in faith full of radiant brilliance.
New Rhyming Poems on Angels

TELL me, dear, everything which occupies you
LAY each piece out, display your soul
SELL me utterly all components, oldest to new
SAY absolute etirety, without any toll
FEEL my hands reaching musty content gently
DRAWN out painlessly, your dark place
REVEAL shame and sins as though incidentally
TORN from humiliation without a trace
BEGIN to trust your ribcage, competent holder
Of HEART, outlandish desires wrapped
WITHIN terror of memory allowed to smoulder
DEPART from a prison, ribcage relaxed
IMMERSED in latitude, stream jumping joyous
FORGIVENESS view gifts expansion
TRAVEVERSED in unison, a vocalised voyage
DELIVERS cognition spun in tandem
BLUEST of blue moons we nurture, accessible
GIVING your mind renews our reward
TRUEST thoughts I massage make it possible
LIVING with wisdom, sharing one orb

The oldest voices whisper below the ground.
Hands pull on roots — wind-beaten, gnarled —
stories woven through the fabric of time.
Bark peeled slick, leaves flattened,
the wisdom of what makes whole lies
between finger and thumb,
passed along like a flame, a prayer.
But the soil only knows part of the story.
The other half lives in breath,
a noise wafting through the room —
a voice wrapping itself around the injured,
knitting them back into themselves,
as if words alone could summon strength,
draw poison from blood.
And when the breath becomes thin,
when there’s no salve to ease the pain,
there is no anger here.
Only the stillness of understanding:
death is on the far side of the cure.
In the gloomiest of nights
We navigate the unknown.
Bound by a shared purpose
Our hearts have grown.
Without talking, we survive.
I grunt and squeak.
She hints at an adventure.
Her odds of making it home are bleak.
Her words are a balm.
Healing wounds unseen
With every step we bestow
We're building a bond, so serene
I am resolved to assist her.
While she is supporting me.
We chat as we stroll along.
In a world, where liberation is glee.
We share our hopes and dreams.
And the secrets of our souls
No fear or judgment
As our connection unfolds
Odd, yet I'm keen on that fact.
She always aims high.
I can hear a heartbeat.
Again, my heart still sighs.
Through valleys and mountains
We forge our path.
Hand in hand, edge by side
Defying fate wrath
We laugh and we cry
In this journey, so profound
Discovering parts of ourselves
That was once lost and bound
With every obstacle we face
We find strength in each other.
Together, we conquer.
Every fear and cover
Our spirits soar, unchained.
As we venture on this route
The world around us fades.
As our hearts commute.
No longer just companions
But we're not afraid.
But a love that's divine
The destination may be unknown.
We have found solace.
In the bonds we have made
So let us continue.
On this path, we have chosen
My heart skipps a beat,
My mind, on the gorgeous hazel sunfilled eyes of my love,
recapturing the moments in my mind,
where we made love, without making love.
skin pressed to skin,
lips pressed to lips,
eyes never wavering, staring endless;
our voices quiet and weak,
whispering words of compassion true,
through the softly lit moans, crying i love you.
When can I say that my darkness has
transformed into
shattered rays of light?
Do my hands have to paint themselves
with the iridescent
colors of the stars?
Do my eyes need to glow with the warmth of the sun?
This existence has met me with
stinging pains,
suffering that makes me cry out-
to more than me.
More than what I could ever be.
Do you see me?
I hear you in everything.
I see you in every atom of your creation.
Your hands upon this earth have
imprinted themselves deeper
than I could ever show.
All I know is that
when shadows
meet light,
God, I see you.
The interwoven emotion,
the hairs standing up on end,
the surge of love
flowing through me in a way
that is uttertly
indescribable.
Your prints are branded,
they lay deep within
my soul,
they lay
deep within
this empire you have built within me.
