Best Eloquence Poems

Eloquence and Grace were sisters on the run
In a place that valued hate
They found that they had none

They sought a world of kindness 
Where love and friendship grew
They hoped that such a place exists in 1692

They heard of a new world, a welcome mat for...

Lacking 

Lacking eloquence
Lector lacking

Bullfrogs and lemmings crooning
In the swamp of dim intellect
Spewing their haughtiness
Through their noses the spittle drops
Collecting in murky waters

Their stagnation hiding within their bubble of hate
When the swamp dries lest it be said
No one will be opening heavens gate
One can not persuade...

A rainbow once said
To fall falling in cascade,
What use loudmouth made
When silence can say a lot, 
Wordless, when the words cannot.

Oh, fuming teardrop!
You’ve boiled over from wrath and anger,
leaving painful blisters as you sear the heart
Why you don’t evaporate is a wonder
but there must be a valid reason…
If only to let the heart know it lives
Oh, fuming teardrop!
Will you ever learn how to forgive?

Oh, defiant...

Her smile shed a glow,
  her smirk shows her skill,
cutting on the curvature,
banking on the opponent,
dropping like a pro,
        moving like a dancer
             sculpted of...

Expressions penned from soulful contemplation,
Rather rhymed, in form, or in free verse style,
May not decide my choice between the two.
It is the sense of awe that is the draw...
Awe that leaves one feeling so inspired,
Tears well up in eyes and deep sighs follow.
Poetry may rival...

Deep Eloquence

Never mistaken as Caliban.
Known for his island fiction
Where we heard his elegant diction....

Snowflakes eloquent and real,
Falling from the heavens,
Makes the world a winter wonderland,
To behold and bless,
Snow everywhere touching the rooftops,
Houses caressed with snow,
A snowman in yonder meadow,
Smiles at the passersby,
Snowflakes falling slowly and melting,
Snow on a winter's day,
Regal and unassuming,
God's paintbrush painting a winter postcard.

Oh!  Ali , the son of Abu Talib ,
Today I have read your book  ‘’Peak Of Eloquence ‘
And seen your pain and agony through which 
You had gone from bottom to top in the journey of your life 
I understand what treasure you...

Lungs that exhale lofty tones,
higher learning ... Mt. Olympus invocation
Elevated flung lightning bolts of linguistic illusion,
fancy worded dreams
floating ...
between 
open cranial empty spaces

Diaphragm skywalkers
verbally illuminating prosthetic landscapes
of skin-deep lip topography
Giving interval beeps 
of sonar, irregular equality

Maimed assumptions broken
and bent at the knees
Another Po’ Boy sandwich
pressed...

If time witnesses pleasure out way the balance do one follows 
Eloquence Of Beauty
Fatigue gas tank on empty vision doors open enchantment blushes setting
Late or on time perhaps evanescence of time can tell
Luxurious does it take from the pleasure or give to that of the...
