Best Console Poems

I know, when I see you, how terrible you feel
I know you're fatigued and cannot stand still
I know you want to tell the whole world your despair
I know you've lost hope in ritual and prayer;
I know you have worked hard, I know you have tried
I...

Through putrid post apocalyptic wastelands
I wander gun in hand 
prepared to annihilate those critters 
who dare to cross my path
then I press the pause button 
and sip from my china cup
thankful that life isn't like 
my console reality 
whilst I flick through the channels 
on...

The rising sun creeps through her window,
 
Placing a kiss on her cheek.
 
She awakens.
 
Stretching her arms and limbs,
 
Her body moves in harmony while
 
Trying to loosen the grasp of the sheets from where she laid.
 
Balancing onto her feet,
 
She staggers to...

Let me ease my bottled pains
By igniting the beauty under your facade, 
For i have deprived myself of that
But live to feel it through you....

He went to war each morn
Armed with thermos and lunch pail
Gearldine wasn’t his firstborn
As a girl – just a tomboy with a pigtail

He knew her from her first breath
Prayed for her when he thought to
No one was prepared for her death
At 39 – in heaven,...

A cool rain has come down,
and stopped the rising of the sun:
a day of mourning for all in the silent city,
and it feels as sad as it felt yesterday;
eyes cry and mix themselves
 with the falling raindrops...

Console them with song,
with words that don't speak of...

Push me no more
console me no more
Words are spoken 
i cannot hear I am deaf

You want me to remember this remember that, look at this, look at that
my mind is shut tight with my heart and soul, tangled
console me no more

A hug a kiss falls...

her lips wet and part

adhering to your pleasure

Hear O, dearest mine, I call upon thee
Leave not me, may the fate’s fore be undone 
Love will unite, ‘tis of us to redone
How shalt this trial pass, if we flee than dree?

When sun dances above divine rainbow
Soothing nightingale, thy matchless beauty
Springs forth golden delight,...

There beside me close as any friend
the wind, cascading on the sunshine, does descend.

And playing in the grass around me, by the water at my feet,
does share with me the dance of life, to overcome defeat.

For Lo, though lost in loneliness, I am not yet...

When I make my bed,
and find you not by my side,
I can’t get sleep, I feel alone;  
You are always on my mind.

Awake every night, finding none
to share my cup of coffee with, 
every morning, I feel lonely;
you are always on my mind.

When I...

Falling from the mourning skies
Gentle thoughts and silent rhymes
Breathing grief through the spirit
Singing comfort with God’s tender hope

As daylight fades beyond the distant hill, 
Dusk paints the sky in hues of soft repose. 
Through swaying boughs, the birds their songs distill, 
While gentle breezes dance on tippy-toes.

Lotus treads the path with a weary stride, 
Her thoughts are as heavy as the fading...
