Best Elated Poems

She sat on a wooden pier in a yoga pose, 
Staring at a wide expanse of stormy bay. 
Salty foamy billows disturbed her not. 
A gull glided down, seeking some fish. 
She felt elated, full of bliss. 
No one disturbed her deep thoughts. 
A warm...

Hitchhiking to Halifax,
 
a friend offered to go with me.

I felt elated, he was my hero!

Then he robed me,

and it hurt like a punch in the gut!

I saw end the mirror pensive consideration, help us Lord
Destroyed spirits of my generation dissensions, help me Lord
How long, lonely I mourned the musing. Lord help us
Down, down, down into the darkness of the missing, Help them Lord
Gently it goes - the brooding, the broody,...

I’m on my way back to my home, 
And I have just got to believe,
In His Mercy for seeds I’ve sown ,
Need to give what I receive,
In Truth I can’t go back alone.

When a wayfaring white dove flutters too far,
And knows not where she is...

One damp misty dawn
I felt mysteriously drawn
Grey foggy-hill-prone,
 
In a rain-drained chill
I trudged to top of the hill
A bit drowsy still,

And a fusillade 
Of clouds left me feel lifted,
Or more misty head!

With warm rays of sun on her canvass so pale,
the white bird glides in her regal flight.
She hovers a bit as she looks down below
to ponder on man, rushing to and fro.
As she glides with grace through the feathery clouds,
a bouquet of beauty, pleasing to...

Have you ever felt elated;
energized and fascinated?
And heard your heart pound in your chest;
thoughts clamoring to be expressed.

Have you ever felt excited;
overwhelmed, and yet delighted?
And garnered joy from every day,
letting your worries waft away.

Have you ever felt ecstatic,
confident and chiasmatic?
And gobsmacked by unbridled joy,
like a...

Define love?
I would take your name in the initial state
because I thought my soul got its mate
The day when your arms gave the solitude
that's when I realized you are my magnitude
the way you embrace my worries and pressure
I got to know you are my precious...

Oh, my, how excited, elated, I would be
to receive sudden financial prosperity.
The true appeal would not be the tangible
but the freedom I have longed to handle.

It is so easy and fun to imagine
the idyllic dream-cottage I would fashion.
If my pen and intent have successful flair,
Perhaps...

For Timothy Lee
Sofa settled with my love and best friend;
content, I could stare at him without end.
I cherish our precious, domestic blend.

Lost in a book or television show,
he is often unaware of my glow,
radiating as I eye-drink him slow.

Even while in his distracted silence
my love...

as the wind stirs, blows
away dust of starry night
glistening, glitter

Emotions

Dancing inside, I can feel
Strong emotions, contagious and real
Too much pressure, some break the seal

Call me sad, depressed, lachrymose
Or elated as my happiness grows
Tomorrow, I’ll feel…well, who knows?

This music that is playing on this bus
Is robust, cheerful and energetic.
African beat if there ever was,
To give the journey a touch of magic.

It brings pep into my African foot,...
Like I could stand and start moving
And start people wondering what's afoot
That an adult man could...
