Best Contributes Poems
PinnacleInviting and magnetic the towering awesome sight
A perspective of domineering rock and icy peaks
It challenges, dares and beckons with unfolding beauty
Stretching upwards into shades of blue and puffy clouds.
Along the winding sloping trail I make my way, the easy
Lower tract encased in green, till...

Tree, Roots and the LightTree Roots and the Light
The tall Tree was Flying, its leaves high in the sky,
Trying to go beyond the flying kites, towards the light,
Its roots were trying to penetrate the soil,
Heading in the deep darkness, it kept moving without a...

MelanieDisheveled and dirty she sat
A guy walking by just spat
It caught her off guard as she wiped it away
Wanted to move but decided to stay
She looked forlorn and beat
Begging for a bite to eat
I approached and offered her a tenner
Her...

PeacefulnessTwo gems settle in your chest; love and sympathy.
Which prevents obstacles but not wisdom
Quietness contributes to the rise and serenity.
Times of jaunt and jubilation with no schism
Many crowns gaze away from the ground.
There are no swirls infused into the screen.
The tones soften as the deep-hued...

TransplanT
Aided by the wind,
entities take flight like prismatic colors-
talismanning chanced direction
"of watering misfit eye",
looking for a new place
to touchdown and paint by and by
of sylvan symbiote's
in magic-detection-anecdote-dissemination
scapegoat,
where...

Justice's DemiseTo remain silent, when injustice is committed
is a crime that contributes to justice's demise

Two Become One,Two become one
Blue and yellow combine to make the lovely colour green
It's neither blue nor yellow it's something distinctively in between
Can you say that green is not good because it's not blue?
Or, because it's not yellow it's really good for nothing too?
No, green is also...

Mother EarthAnd now a massive hole in the ozone layer
Global warming, not really mentioned before
Like all the wild life and all of the agriculture
Fossil fuels were burning, destroying the core
Rain forests now fast becoming waste lands
Polluting the atmosphere with our toxic waste
And to think all of...

Zyx of It AllXylophones ping the 'Orleans' Umbrella dance
You'll soon join in with the thunderous
Zedeco music two stepping through the streets
While the rest of the nation looks on in horror
Voodoo Queens follow the Exorcist around
Unless you specify otherwise, you'll find
The tour bus will drop you at...

TimelessSoftly beckoning chirps decorate the air
While love birds spin in romantic dizzies
Careless directions, being lost without a care
All maps lead to the heart of the matter
Wakening streams cry over a beauteous spring
Water itself contributes for the love of flowers
With boldness and buoyancy...

No More BreakfastI gave up breakfast
Not because I needed
To lose girth
Nor any extra
Avoirdupois
Nor because the time wasted
In feeding
Could have been better
Used
To solve the problems of the
Universe
Not because the eggs
Are high cholesterol
And the chicken sausage
Created from
Hapless victims in their
Sharp metal cages
Who never knew a
Better life
I...

We Are IWe are one. We are the same. We are I.
We move with the same ligaments, the same joints, the same muscle strings.
We ooze of acid. We erode. We exude a putrid odour.
We are a walking culmination of demons.
Barbatos’ head, sticking out of our body’s...

The OutsiderThey think I’m stupid, but they’d be surprised
I see the revulsion in their eyes
And the way their heads lean together,
To talk about me as I walk by.
Do they think I don’t see looks of horror
On faces, as they get to their feet?
When I approach their...

Mother EarthTo think what we have done to this plaint
And now it is fast starting to lose it's worth
But we have been warned by mother earth
Just look at the mess we have made of it
At one time we questioned global warming
Now something that's constantly talked about
Fossil...
