Best Epoch Poems


Epoch of Time

Amidst the vortex of empty time, going back a calumnious climb,
To change a love my only crime, sweet surrender of life sublime…
The Time Machines are ready still, sending me back upon my will,
To gain back love I shall fulfill, amongst meadows of the daffodil.

Evaporating reflections in my eyes, hands of time turning clockwise,
May the love we had apprise, as I look at the darkened distant skies…
The stars align for I await and the planets rebuttal in their debate,
The Time Keepers guard the gate, within their arms I leave my fate.

In perpetuation of times expanse, chronological clocks in romance,
Cupid’s arrow is ready to lance, while my heart prepares to dance…
I approach my love once more, will their love palpitate with a pour,
Guardians of time open their door as I awake out of bed on the floor.

Premium Member Epoch Paradox Found Written by Yolanda Joy Nicholsen

Meeting you here at last grasping 
every thought every meaningful 
gesture I'd wrap myself up in the 
essence of your bronzed glow
slowing lowering my minds eye 
to the depth of your soul capturing
 
this bountiful energy that seemed
to restore over and over again 
mastered to the faint beating of 
my heart mimicking ancient drums 
of an untimely epoch insecurities
hidden beneath ageless notions
 
why I'd opened the doors to a nurtured
love paradox remembered without 
effort concealed with truth a natural 
fruited appetite for passions found
unmeasured an yet we'd balanced
yesterday and tomorrow today

Premium Member A Breeze From a Past Epoch

Like a breeze from the past, once again appears
Welcomed out of curiosity, calms her life's fears
Out of the blue this breeze like the very first day
Abounds in the hearts, allowing two individuals to play

No era determines time, nor does age discriminate
For this breeze drfited over, a young hearts ultimate
This epoch of time appears to be forever in one heart
Why enter this blue, unless it ignites old sparks


The Greatest Contradiction of Our Epoch

He said,  dismantling of USSR was  the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of century, 
I said  it  was been the greatest breakthrough of our age and hope for the best future.
We have been so quite disagree  but he was a very influential national lieder, 
the creator of world empire from nursing billionaires-oligarches 
and European ex-presidents retrogrades and trytors
on his  service, 
I have been just a poet with the best and honest vision
and  strong belief and respect for West democracy and advanced society
and Magna Carta.

Verlenian Epoch

VERLENIAN EPOCH
[I am] from the place where white man states that, literary devices are 
     for him creatively.
[I am] commencing the era when empowerment formed in writing.
As a Poet and Philosopher of life ways, [I am] aspiring to connect to scholars.

With emphasis concentrated in Social Theory, my philosophies thrive 
     on the page.
Social Theology is a prosperous ideology that suggests we are summiting 
     as the human race.
Our languages are full circle and our image has crested.
The multifarious questions of why am I here and from where did I come 
     make sense.

This millennium must substantiate our existence to more than 
     merely survival.
Our way of life was given for continuation.
This is a reality.
The acumen states that the era of one is looking us in the face.
Do we perceive this as a greater nation?

The Epoch, the Epopee, the Eternity

When a precedent-busting pandemic is palling around the world 
when its concomitant panic and pain freak out
it is your fine figures that are unflinchingly unfurled
e'en as proctective gears barely eke out.

Isolation wards owe you diligence and devotion
ICU hours witness your will and willingness in motion
solely concerned with failing lives' fate
you move heaven and earth against time
to wrest back the critical at Hade's gate
with your own forgotten at the sacrificial sublime.

Head o'er heels covered in colors cold 
still you keep your hearts of gold
wherefrom bright hue beams 
warm love streams
care and cordiality swathing afflicted lands
bundling up every bedside in blessing bands.

Sweat sieging forehead, you have smile snuggle both eyes
fatigue ravaging physique, you have patience station personalities.

Tandem consistency synchronizes and synthesizes
Hippocratic oath and your practice
kneading them into such an integrated tenacity  
that the snaggiest terrestrial tmesis cannot tear apart;

Kindred fitness harmonizes and homogenizes 
Asclepius' staff and your hands
melting them into such an uncanny continuum 
that the sharpest celestial kenning cannot tell apart.

How many grand writers' purple passages paled
and painting masters' soaring strokes flattened
as eminent ebullience of ekphrases encounters self-effacing eclipsers
you are the plainest messengers, the hope and healing disseminators
you are most colorful illuminators, the virtue and vitality vivifiers
Supreme entelechy of esthetics meets pluperfect interpreters.

The beauty stands still                                                                                                   climbing cascading white fangs                                                                                       seeing aqua blue

Anthropocene Epoch Love

Living in the Cenozoic era
Broken down for Holocene
Quaternary argues me
Hadean Eon answered
Love is science, religion smiled 
Started launching Holy Book
Planetesimal rules, interval.
Hades, Hebrew for hell

Epoch

EPOCH
My literal nemesis
An engagement with enmity
A truest of enemies
Dishonest to none, except to me.
Only to me. She saves her lies for me.
Saves herself while all her time is in other peoples company
Only lies to me at night
And only when she is done;
Will I write our morning Effigy?
Our reminders of children’s convictions
Our witness to a daily penance gone
For the crimes suffered at the hands of parents
As our own parenting lacked.
Absence begets absence from
Abuse brought from neglect.
Its genetic it is inherent 
In other words there’s no escape
It has always been waiting, this mental trap.

Premium Member Horrendous Epoch

Time is smooth like a bird's chirp drew
Hazy but arranged, strength derive. 
With asked waning, something might blew
Time is both blendings where zeal rive. 
Hissing us all
With a sound fall.

Dread with dying, but given due
flight boundary briefs or contrive. 
We wish for a quick and fair true
can't be found, but thrive to connive 
Wings are worn out
To grasp, must doubt.

His Meaningless Life

 
Statements are the treats
To the spoken,
But to the intended;
They still might ill-treat.

The Dreamer still dreams-day dreams
To find his passion
In his day,
But realizes at  nights
That he spends his time in nothingness.
The Merchant says,
Where and when forth you get me my love
There and then forth I make you not my slave
Where and when forth you get me my riches, I repeat
There and then forth I make you not my slave
Then forth I unscrew your bond
To me
A yearlong you have, to win your life
I won't spare it at all
After this epoch of a lifetime

On the day before his death
The Miser's eyes go bloody red
As red as the flaming fires 
In the failure's junk bed
While he day-dreamed .......

Epoch a Lipstick...

Here’s the arm of my giddy on…
It’s a pity that’s it’s not what you’re expecting
Inspections detected a mention 
Called weapons of mass destruction
What freaking moron would build such things
Pretending to tend to the important Beings
Lending to send such meaningless meanings
Keeping the freeKin’ fearing sound, 
on the ground?

Displeased, the lipstick came out…

Mislead was the message I shout!
Inspections detected a mention
That a moron’s moronic notion
Is to control and rule the ocean…

The vision was clear….
Pissed off and quick you hear…
A big Mother took her kid by the ear.
Nothing in the world did the poor chap fear
Except the color of lipstick, the Mother would wear.

Next thing you know
There was lightening in the snow
Zipper sounds from the clouds I say
Lines in the sky and they made me sway
The color of blue was to change this day.

Oracle triggers triggered safety valves
On maple leaves and written in halves
Visions clear in the windless rain
Nothing gets to work, if the works in vain.
Drastic peace and solutions in the wind.

Getty up Scout…
Nothings perfect.

Her Epoch

Beyond the times of struggle, I grew up
In blazing pursuit of success 
I sometimes lost myself
In depths of someone's envy
In closed limpid walls of mirror

Surrounded by many people
I perceived the very significance of life
They were what you call friends but they
never linger long in your life

Then, it dawned upon me 
They were but mere fancies of life
Ached my heart with the sudden revelation 
For memories that were embossed within me 

My life_  a tale. a saga it became
Some dreams abandoned 
Some achieved
I walked the crooked path and stumbled across
Fell and dusted the redundant

Then came a man,his presence strange
Added color to my blank canvas 
I care so he cared 
His likes became my likes 
Things I liked were left forgotten 

Dawn till dusk I remain reserved 
As wife, as mother, as an ideal woman
Wiped the mirror clean to see myself
Faint smile crossed my lips
My lovely hair left uncombed 

Years passed, children grew
My lovely hair glistened grey
Wrinkled face and an abrupt smile
Age long as the Nile

The departing time finally came
Every soul's end is same
You can never escape the inevitable
Darkness enveloped my weak eyes
Time certainly flies!

Premium Member A Disruptive Epoch

A whole is normally the sum of all of its parts
Cept in politics, stumps even us most clever bards
All rules are out the window
The world is in limbo
We'll soon come to our senses and this era disregard

Epoch

Locked in 
time. 
Prisoners. 
Prisoners each 
to their 
own 
epoch. 
Choice. 
No choice. 
Conform, 
live as the 
time dictates. 
No choice. 
Look at 
their faces! 
Dealing. 
Dealing best 
they can 
with what’s 
been handed. 
No choice. 
Rules in place. 
Each time 
different. 
Must be 
what time 
dictates. 
No choice!
