Best Count On Poems

When my world collapses
And I'm feeling blue
When the chips are down
Can I count on you

Will you stand by me
And help ease my pain
Will you walk with me
Through fire and rain

Will you stay with me 
When the world turns away
And hold my hand
Help me find my...

count on it...

that numbers made the world
we came to believe
after all ten digits 
long ago ran out
and we stuck our toes into the fray
to count and be counted anyway

and they too ran out
a foot at a time
and numbers became stuck to 
our rulers feet or...

Numbers Count On Themselves

3’s make love in the open 
Twist with trees that turn from Winter
Count on music to reveal Spring
Several 7’s take lessons on how to Jitterbug
They disco with 6’s by the river to keep in step 
Zero’s boat house is open for business
Even...

You can count on your fingers
You can count on your toes
You count all the petals
On a newly blossomed rose
You can count on an abacus
You can count apples on a tree
But, most of all
You can always count on me

You can call on a phone
Using a mobile...

Italian sonnet 

How deep thy love for me, so very broad
One cannot miss the peace that calms the eyes.
With grace and joy and patience, I surmise
Thy sweet love’s a virtue, I can applaud.
The love I offer thee is surely flawed,
Sincere but juvenile, a compromise.
Might I...

Think about it you can count on your mom and dad to take care of you,but is both 
parents there
 
The bus driver is supposed to pick you up for school but what if he didn't come

Waking up tomorrow but tomorrow isn't promised today

Cars to...

I'll stand by him through thick and thin,
because we have the same blood under our skin,
Too many things in this world come and go,
I want this to be real, not just for show. 

Before life pulled us apart,
now its time for a new start.
He moved...

If i could catch the raindbow
I would do it just for you,
And share with you its beauty
On the days that you're feeling gloomy

If I could build a mountain
For us to roam
A place to find your serenity of your own
And a place  to be alone.

If...

Sometimes in life we put people on a high place..
Only to be let down and watch them fall from grace..
We should not hold them in this regard..
It only makes our love for them oh so hard..
Lessons learned and understood..
No one is perfect as we wish...

Calorie counting
Overly aggressive
Understated
Never satisfied
Thickly disgusted

Oppositionally
Nervous

Ticking time bomb
Heaving 
In secret
Now a days...

Can I count on you, Lord 
Before the day is through
When I am feeling down 
I know it hurts you, too.

I am struggling through life
Feel I am by myself 
Dealing with so much strife.

When I am aimlessly wandering,
Trying to find peace, will you be
The one...

You can count on it 
Seasons changing 
You can count on it 
A drip from a faucet sink 
You can count on it 
Ignited Flame polyester melts 
You can count on it 
World domination 
Higher prices inflation 
You can count on it 
World's gone wrong...

Many things have been told
By both people weak and bold
I know that one broken promise
Will never change the past
Crying out to you is all
The only thing that I can do before I fall
Yet there is an arm that reaches out
My name is the only thing...

Phone calls, then running down long halls.
Drive fast, damned traffic, but at last.
Must park, make payment in the dark.
Run in, puff puff, catch second wind.
Then soon, I'll find you in some room.

White coats, dispensing antidotes.
So small, so fragile -- like a doll.
Green-blue, that gown can't...
