Best Faults Poems

Some people come to church just to be seen
No Holy nor any Ghost in them can be gleaned

Now Jesus was in the temple 
Teaching a class
Until some Pharisees came to Him
Acting like an ass
They presented a woman to Him
Whom they say committed adultery
Trying to set...

Not all my faults were mine
See, if you follow every line, 
Cracked yearly by life's quakes 
After every turn she takes 

What did not fall apart
Was recycled, to restart,
Not knowing now or then
She'd fractured, yet again 

Basking on bone and skin
A wrinkle forms, o, so...

I remember sitting at a friends place
his grand daughter was watching television
he walked in demanded in a loud voice 
it's my television I pay the bill

turned over to watch sports
the child broken hearted said nothing 
but went off by herself
growing up his children had rebelled...

Sometimes I am bothered by the haunted heart in him
He hides the person from deep within,
The kind who fears regret now tries hard -
Defying mistakes as cautioned as he maybe
Disguising loneliness in fraud of falling in love,
He earned his master’s
I've seen him smile without a...

Yesterday, I lied. 

I faked a laugh and
g  r  o  a  n  e  d.

In fake satire, 
but that was a 
lie. 

I fake a lot of things:
-regret
-happiness
-completion
-sympathy

But darling (another lie), I did not feign affection....

All my faults shatter like crystals
when my laughter hides them from others...
I do deny they exist
when they don't hurt the least;
get to know them to avoid surprises....

If only preoccupied ourselves with our faults and not with the faults of others

Certain it would be our character sooner to improve than that of our brothers!

How do I love thee? Let me count thy faults.
Many to list, many to count, many more to say,
Things to fix, things to change, oh!
I should have told you all this yesterday.

Your nose is long, your ears are longer,
Your eyes like glassy golf balls slick...

I have so many faults, I know it’s true
I’m trying to correct them, but it’s hard to do.
My faults have become goals that I must achieve
By doing this, they won’t be seen.

I’ll turn off the television and at my computer I’ll sit
My wife sees me...

It isn't hard to see the faults,
Of all those 'round about us,
And point them out to others,
As we make note of the status,

Of those who seem to lean toward,
A certain type of weakness,
While building up our vision,
Of our own virtues and meekness.

It seems we tend...

If I am honest, the faults I see in others is a true reflection of me...
Oh Lord, help me to recognize my own hypocrisy.

Sometimes it's easy to point at others and see all the bad that is...
But we must be loving  and forgiving because...

I struggle with monogamy
Not due to lack of interest 
Or attracton
Certainly not lack of love

It's out of fear that I cheat
Because I expect it 
When you've learned to overanalyze 
you hear lies in every sigh

Any time spent apart turns to
A guilt filled question mark

I love...

Spring is not all about charming beauty.
Like all seasons, Spring has her many faults.
Spring Cleaning, once a chore and main duty,
Lies deeply hidden in my secret vault.

I might as well mention angry weather--
Gale Wind, along with partner, Blowing Dust.
Grit covers all, I would so much...

I have several toxic habits - I know - because I read an article on the web.
It’s a miracle I’m not an axe murderer, based on what the experts said.

I use “should” biased judgements - when things go amiss.
I think about the future, when settling...

Into the buoyant blue of a summer sky
I throw my fortune and my hopes.
With wings and wonder I survey
the world above and need some time
up there before descending back to earth.

Advancing throttle up I climb, rocket
like and plumb, to check the heights 
of clouds and...
