Best Endeavor Poems

There is a phrase of words be praised
I’ve heard somewhere before;
Down amongst the dirt and weeds
Of things we most deplore. 

Which rob us of our rightful place
In the shade of dignity and warm sun:
“Forever to endeavor,
Persevere and overcome.”

It might have been a movie scene

When fear heals by a heavenly light,
It casts a halo over the soul.
The darkness slips from sight,
This was difficult for you to control.

The incredible beauty of your inner fight,
Aside from your enlightened role.
When fear takes root, it brings twilight,

Why must life be such a complex endeavor
Always pressing in upon the seeking heart
Making every day a hard-earned victory, or
A resounding defeat, an open or closed door?

     Respect is reciprocal,
     It’s sweet to be social,
Poets should endeavor to be emollient!...

Look outward. Look beyond.
For today there are needs.
Peer left and spy right
   for the needful of deeds.

One hungers. One thirsts.
One yearns to be warm.
To seek out a shelter
   from the thundering storm.

Some long for the knowledge.
Some wish to be led.

People believe:


To change something forever,


It always starts with the Man in The Mirror.


 


 On this Earth, long we have all been,


both aged and teen,


And I believe of all our goals,


The most important should be to ennoble our souls.


 


For without guilt, we use our...

Should Always Endeavor

Live on native soil which I would not spoil
And under it are resources of ore and oil
Improve environment should always endeavor
With vigilant ideas that are very clever.

Should enjoy doing exercise which is isometric
And drive around in cars which will be electric
From extra carbs...

Eyes untangles the twining nodes of your blouse
 Exposing nectar factories that taunt naughty minds 
As their mouths leak the righteous nudity of their oblongata 
Their hands stay restless while their nostrils sniff your underwear

 Pseudopodia protrudes between your two legs 
As rain shadows form...

I know what I have to do, I know what I have to say,
one final endeavor because my life is in such disarray.

Wanting you to know that being apart from you, I am not myself,
nothing else in this world can make me happy, not even...

My work is done, 
Yet No heart appreciates....

All of this time we've been apart, I've been so very thankful for all you gave to me
With your kind heart and generous soul, you shown me love and opened my eyes so I could 
finally clearly see
It was something that before or after you...

they have what it takes
like sunset colors on blue
strength guts and virtue

like the orange sun
they are natural leaders
in red robin days

like rainbow colors
they have that extra something
in triumph or loss...
