Best Connections Poems

I have  truly become fond of many poets here on Poetry Soup
And to be quite honest that has completely surprised me
l never believed a human connection could be made via a screen
Yet…. l have proved myself wrong completely

I do have a gullible soft hearted...

A cobbler may balance his trade, the mending of soles
  With that of a mender of souls, exchanging roles
With a man of the cloth, making two Roman officials
  Wroth, in the opening scene of Shakespeare's 'Julius Caesar'

Yet when barefoot you walk, on cobblestone...

Dad's youngest brother
is younger
than my brother:
Dad being the eldest
in his family,
my brother being
the eldest in mine.

Mother's sister
wed Dad's cousin.
Their offspring and I
are double cousins.

I crossed county lines
to choose a mate
totally unrelated.
 
Dream on.
Somewhere back there,
the name Pratt dangles
from both family trees....

I saw a kindly friend in church today--
 I say "a friend" because I know her well
 Like all the rest, her name, address, the way
 She smiles and says, "good morning," takes 
 Her seat four seats away from mine.
 An hour later we...

The Connections

Where are the pharaohs, the pharisees, and the great philosophers
Of their times a holder of prominence, liberal interpreter and rational reasoning
For I am one who wishes to have a royal bloodline and wisdom
I am one innocent and a blind to the truth...

As I looked to the horizon
Emotion surged through me.
Connections from some distant past, 
A calling from the sea.

Drawn to the rise and fall
Of this rolling entity,
As I watch the waves in motion, 
I feel content and free.

Moonbeams danced across the sea
Glinting way afar,
I stood in...

Submersion Connections

The water heaved and sighed with the gathering force of self while
	the tug positioned to push, pull, hold.

The mammoth engineering marvel,
	rose like the Phoenix with the grace of Shamu,
		antenna first
			then bridge
				finally the deck
The round port hole unwinds.

On the dock are,
	two women and a man
The...

Visions of dreams from the past open the door to present reality. The universe accepts the prayers of all the faithful. In search of understanding, their cries for help are silenced. Patched disagreements are found in willingness to survive.

Connections

To the water’s edge for solitude
Life rippling near river’s bed
Prayers lifted now in gratitude
As burdens heavy cloak is shed

See my brothers
See my sisters
Drifting now in foreign lands
See the members
Of my family
In each and every clan

At the water’s edge in solitude
Tears mingling with life’s stream
Visions of...

The world,The homes,
The people and their emotions,
Initial contractions of real
expectations, for I have 
telepathic connections

The world,The homes
The people, Hiding emotions
of true nature, avoiding the light
of wisdom and interactions,
Its ok for they too have 
telepathic connections.

The world,The homes
Hiding people and emotions
Curtains the truth of human
nature. Hidden...
