Best Destined Poems
There was a time when the world was beautiful
and we were destined to be lovers forever
nothing brought us sadness
we were devoted
like sunrise is to morning like sunset is to the night
now all I have are memories drifting through my soul
I cry for your last whispered breath
days mean nothing, tomorrows are gone
our lives vanished like a passing wind
sweeping away time...sweeping away growing old
we meet in my dreams
where we still dance and I bring you flowers
dreams come and go...pain stays...pain stays
so I cry, needing to dream
dreams are not what I need, it's you I need
to see, to hold, to kiss again
I fall to my knees each time I visit your grave
and cry until I can't cry anymore
Why...were you taken?
you were the beauty, the light, the paradise
we would have filled our tomorrows with so much love
that its glow would have blinded the night
What now love, what now? My heart is yours
my soul is yours, to be shared when we meet again
so we may be lovers in the heavenly stars forever
A dragon's scale reflects the rounds of time
her heart, the subtle beat of love sublime
a secret kept in smoke and ancient bones-
a tale best told in whispered lines of rhyme.
She flies the crystal skies in silent tones
a burning hope of love is all she owns
forgotten visions lost in endless tales
and buried deep beneath the cobbled stones.
Remaining true beyond the mystic vales
her longing for soul's kinship never pales
though crushing eras weigh upon her name,
her eyes still scan the blue where hope still sails.
The day will dawn when once again her flame
will blaze along the sky and one will tame
rebellious spirit, and her heart reclaim
from solitude's dark grasp to light's domain.
for such a time as this of political upheaval and economic uncertainty
how does anyone go about determining what is their God-given destiny?
what is our purpose in the grand scheme of God's desires?
what is it from us that the Lord Our God requires?
God gave each of us life for a reason
and will call upon each of us in due season
there will be some sacrificing and moving out of comfort zones
just remember that whatever God asks of you, you won't have to do it alone
for the battle is not just yours it also belongs to the Lord
and God won't let you write a check that you cannot afford
God will move you to a place and then give you an obstacle to overcome
but through Jesus you have the victory so consider the battle won
just trust in God to give you all that you will need
so that His set purpose for your life will come to seed
like Queen Esther, Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth and Rosa Parks
women destined for greatness who were beacons in society's dark
they did what was necessary for the greater good
to put the needs of others before their own as we all should
they stood up and confronted the so-called powers that be
in righteous indignation in order to save humanity
so let God position you where you'll prosper and be strong
and then use you as a vessel to make right a wrong
it might not make much sense to you and you might even disagree
but God knows what's best when it comes to determining your destiny
so just say yes to any and all that of you God does ask
and believe unconditionally that He'll equip you for the task
and as long as you remain resilient in your resolve
between you and God the situation will get solved
destined for greatness as mothers, mentors, lawyers or teachers
destined for greatness as activists, doctors, scientists or preachers
it matters not the capacity nor the career for you that God did choose
we're women destined for greatness and as children of God we cannot lose
"Destined to Love"
twilight Moon cascades, haunting tapestry
as hearts incline to secrets of mellow night
clandestine caresses embrace 'neath canopy
lovers silhouette engage in sweet romantic flight
ascending to voluminous height.
in ebony atmosphere, flirtatious fondling ignites fire
as breathless succulence invades flesh and bone
with adventurous satisfaction, love pursues deepest desire
while sequined stars illuminate soft tone
captivating aura of mysterious moan.
forbidden fruit lies tenderly amidst dew-kissed heather
hypnotic force of true love refused to be denied
petite vision in chantilly lace and supple leather
emotions escalate vast inner feelings to subside
love conquers life, happiness cried.
a lovers touch creates palatial garden of delight
a beautiful expression accentuating rare romance
inhaling fragile fragrance although their precious plight
encircles pair in eternal dance
succumbing to the power of temptation's trance.
twilight Moon cascades, haunting tapestry
gently, pure white wings of turtledove
whispers an evening song 'neath lovely canopy
while heavenly stardust shimmers from above
smiling upon lovers destined to love.
*For old romantic poems Contest..
Game of god or a way of life …
Fate left me so weak and tiny.
Forbidden love ; a trick of life.
Passion alights in brevity.
Years back , decision hard I made.
Game of god or a way of life …
A last kiss and goodbye I bade,
Shattered, I could not be his wife.
Lived in hope ; love has afterlife.
He came back to hold me in maze
Game of god or a way of life …
At my door he stood like in daze.
Patient! Time stood with nurse's word.
Ethic was fighting emotion,
His wife sat beside him. Absurd!
Game of god or a way of life …

Oh we made our choices in life and tried so very hard
Nothing’s easy when the old school buried deep mentally,
Being street wise we fought many times our lives put on guard
Till we came along and touched each with our candour gently.
Yesterday at the castle or was it a long time past?
Till then as yet never met life in concrete we thought set,
Dreams becoming reality in them a role at last
Seems we were meant to meet oh fate we succumb to your debt.
Far behind now the guilt as our hearts rhythmically beat
Looks count for nothing as sincere eyes see more than skin deep,
While many hours have long time passed; years spent now a new treat
Creating tomorrow’s memories forever to keep.
Oh to reap the rewards in this our lives the seed to sow
To know love needs a little rain before sunshine to grow.

Here I remain where my destiny pointed
Followed the path with a twist at each turn
Long was the road that appeared ever changing
After these years you would think I could learn
Safe in her arms feeling nothing could hurt me
Fingers entwined and her lips made of fire
Maple leaf dreams should have lasted forever
All that I wanted, my every desire
Open doors closed with their locks tightly bolted
Windows reflecting each shadow I see
Pulled a direction no fighting could waiver
Darkness converged on the image of me
Listening to echoes of words never spoken
All by myself on a wall made of stone
Hoping my tears are enough now to drown me
It had to be, I am destined alone
Through the vacant corridors
of my heart
Echos of a love lost that
once tore me apart
In an infinite vacuum, it’s as
if each beat cries out
Wishing for a time that was,
yet still holds doubt
How it had blossomed as
its essence unfolded
It’s imperfection around my
soul had molded
Imagined expressive sweet
allure and grace
Destined lotus petals held within
a tender embrace
An act of the spontaneous
creation revealed
Didn’t matter if it had to be kept
forever concealed
Calling out to a heart with its
expressed invitation
Definitions and concepts
unknown realization
Promised of a unification of two
hearts and beings
Blinded by obstacles somehow,
felt very freeing
Sitting upon creations reality
it had seemed fused
In the end the complexity had
left one feeling so used
Soul
Breaking
Lies whispered,
Seeking escape,
Soaked in caged deceit;
Mimes mocking withering
Posies, left parched and sundered—
Suspended beneath obscured dusks,
Dripping amidst blinding aftermaths,
Idly shadowed by lewd scars of talons
Amidst alcoves of echoing nocturnes
Unshackled by your sweet afterglow,
Healing me with the elixir
Of our dawning horizons,
Strumming eurythmic tunes,
Suppressing starless
demons, betwixt
Soul-stirring
Destined
Love.
a lot of intrigue, plenty of danger and a little bit of romance
a fatal conspiracy, God's destiny with a touch of bribery and finance
the Bible's book of Esther reads like a modern novel that contains all these things
but the book of Esther never mentions the Lord God by His name
even thougth the Lord God's name is not written
the presence of the Lord is certainly not hidden
King Xerxes of Persia had a feast and was in a drunken stance
when he ordered Queen Vashti to come forth and perform a risque dance
Queen Vashti refused to abide by the King's drunken request
the King was so affronted that he kicked out of the royal nest
King Xerxes was a ruler with a weak constitution
easily swayed by others in his royal conclusions
influenced by his cronies he signed many decrees and unfair laws
to inebriated and unable to see that they were flawed
with Queen Vashti now exiled the King desired to attain a new queen
and that was when a comely Jewish maiden arrived on the scene
her heritage and nationality remained unknown to the monarchy
until the day King Xerxes signed a most horrendous decree
a plot was put into place, its purpose to destroy the Jews
so Queen Esther urged by her Uncle Mordecai knew what she had to do
and despite the fact that her actions would put her life on the line
she saw the hand of God at work and knew that this was now her time
for such a time as this her mission was to be an agent for the Lord
her destiny was to make right a wrong and put all in accord
destined for greatness by following God's holy instructions
destined for greatness to save a nation from total destruction
God is in charge and will use any woman or man
to fulfill His promises according to His master plan
God is sovereign and He's in total control
so give Him all the glory when He defines for you your role
Queen Vashti's removal allowed Queen Esther to be in a place
positioned by the hand of God to provide her people His saving grace
for nothing in life in coincidence, it's all God's destiny
according to His Holy Word that is the prophecy
destined for greatness for such a time as this
the Bible's book of Esther a story that should not be missed

My love, my life, my everything- Forever
From the moment that we first met
I knew this relationship was meant to be
The hands of Fate had led me to you
Not merely chance, but divine destiny.
I thought I had been in love many times before
But I had only been fooling myself all along
This time I fell hard, fast, and completely
Never In life have I felt anything this strong.
Since the very first moment we got together
Deep in my heart I know one thing to be true
No matter what may come and until the day I die
I will only forever want, need, love you and cherish you.
Priceless, This love is worth any sacrifice
If needed, I would give my very life for you
I would follow you to the ends of the earth
Without hesitation if you ever asked me to.
I will Always want you close to me
Only by your side finally do I feel whole
You are the one who completes me flawlessly
The missing half of my broken soul.
There will never be anyone else for me but you
Good or bad, I promise I will never stray
Because only you provide complete fufillment
We are A perfect fit In each and every way.
We are destined to win before we begin. Through the difficult challenges we face
in life,we'll find God taking us from our lowest depths to our highest heights.
Don't worry !!! God has qualified us to succeed. God will provide our wants and
meet our needs. So remember where ever we are God is there. Let us be
confident in knowing that God has already answered our prayers !!! We are
destined to win , so don't give up now !!! Don't be concerned with the
when,where,or how !!!
I believe in myself, the greatest I
Ambitious and artistic in every agenda
My ability grows high yet I lay medium
Destiny that I am born for is already designed
Even though I admire my admittance
Serving with pride is my priority to success
The challenges I face strengthen my talent
I believe that one success will Di and Tri
Nothing can stop me because i am forever green
Energy that i have gives nothing but perseverance
Destined but not determined to demand
For I know that my creativity is what I am proud of
Off the limit my ability gives me courage to do
Reality is that I am born to go greater
Greatness is the passion that gives me everything
Repetition of my failure grows me even greater
Even when I am down I still feel the best I deserve
After all perseverance is on the list of my agenda
Trials and tribulations are what give me height
Nevertheless when the pain hit me more often
Enthusiasm is the only essence of my excellence
Success is the song i sing for greatness
Slogan that i pride myself when reaching my goals.
I dream big;
People doubt me.

A love that is destined to grow
Each day that passes we learn more
A love that is destined to grow
I am intrigued, mystified by your lore
I know that we will remain for eternity
Each day that passes we learn more
We gain introspect to our unified identity
I even love the traits that I can't stand
I know that we will remain for eternity
Our life so far is never bland
Engaged to be wed, your what I want
I even love the traits that I can't stand
Holding your hand, our love I will flaunt
Everyday with you is a celebration
Engaged to be wed, your what I want
Even though in life there may be temptation
Everyday with you is a celebration
A love that is destined to grow
Our love is destined to grow!
