Best Fill Poems
As we sit under the stars
Let my fingertips trace
your scars
You are perfect in my eyes
Let me hear your sweet sighs
Show me your deep fractures
Seems my soul you've captured
Im loving your imperfections
They show me the right direction
Let my joy fill your soul
My tears fill each crack in your
your being
Beyond the valley mottled clouds and blue
Invite all strangers into quiet peace.
There sunlight sparkles with the morning dew.
The river hears the loudly honking geese.
And fragrance from spring flowers fills the air.
Each anxious soul can feel his qualms release.
A quiet stillness floods the valley fair.
Magnolia blossoms show their shining white.
A virgin giggles adding her sweet flare.
While smitten by the golden sun’s daylight,
She challenges desires in her mind.
Beneath the yellow trees her heart takes flight.
Idyllic beauty with God’s hand entwined,
Resounds His message through nature’s converse.
Departing there, good virtue still aligned.
Delightful flowers fill her universe.
If we infuse love into our children's hearts
And teach them respect for all nature and life
Soon, many more things for peace we would achieve,
That would end humanity's destructive strife!

* I would like to thank my few good friends for their support, for without them, a POTD wouldn't be possible, as it wouldn't be possible without the right judgment of PS's officials.
You fill my days with happiness
With joy I never knew
There is no greater love my dear
Than the love I feel for you
You fill my days with kindness
You set my poor heart free
I can't begin to tell you
How much you mean to me
You fill my days with friendship
The kind that lasts and lasts
The purest kind of friendship
What more could one man ask
You fill my days with total joy
Like when I was just a child
The first time I could ride a bicycle
The clown that made me smile
You fill my days with quiet peace
That blows my cares away
With simple words of tenderness
You brighten up my day
But most of all sweet lady
You fill my days with spice
I'm never bored when you are near
My love it's been a slice

My dearest love who makes me whole
Fills drafty places in my soul
Where grief and sorrow left a hole
Your loving ladle fills my bowl
Each loving touch removes a trace
of painful scars that mark a place
where hateful love seared every space
Sad, broken life and battered face
Your love a rare and precious pearl
New hope and joy we will unfurl
Forever blessed, my heart's a whirl
Transcends all pain poured on this girl

Devils Fill Churches
Say the ones from outside
I, on the other hand find sanctuary
From liberals who tell me how I must think
I only wish peace, good will and a wee bit of gods drink
I open my arms
I hug the entire world
I know there is evil and I know there is good
The paths are many, and I love those who see
Is not the path, but the destination and the destiny
I know I am human
I know I have sinned
I know that we all are made up of same universal cloth
I know, I know nothing, nothing at all
Other than kindness and to love others big or small
Like brothers and sisters together we stand tall
I am humbled when I see the poorest of humanity
Offer me comfort and his only blanket
I may not know what is up there in the stars
I know that kindness is never wrong here or on Mars
I love science and knowledge
I love the diversity of life
Yet some call me evil without ever knowing
The inner beauty in us all, that in the dusk of the evenings
You can see nature’s gifts and the universe still dreaming
Faith you see in not about gods calling
Faith is about the goodness of all of us collectively
Humanity
From sea to see
Perhaps I'll leave my window open
as my mind drifts silently off to dream
There'd be fields so lush and skies so blue
a perfect peaceful setting scene
I'd sit and I'd smile at all that's right
in a world of harmony,
where the air is pure, the streams run clean
and the hummingbirds fly free.
When the winds blow in and kiss my cheek
and the morning sun begins to rise
When my thoughts race rampantly and run ever so wild
I'll see that same beauty, that same peace
in your soft, ever loving, almond eyes.
I'll sit up and I'll smile
taking it all in
The smell of fresh baked biscuits
will fill the room and my heart with warmth
and surround it with happiness
my eyes will form a slight mist knowing
knowing I'm already here
the place that dreams are made of
where amazing sunsets go to live on forever
where the birds are always singing a playful tune
where whispers of I love you can always be heard
where the sun shines a little brighter
and every sight of you causes me to forever swoon
There is no love, without our God;
Search your heart and home it’s not hard ~
I cannot stay if He’s not there,
A sense of loss would fill the air.
Fill this house with truer faith
Let, our hearts hope in Him always --
He‘ll heal spiritual beggars,
His glory abounds forever…
Search your heart and home it’s not hard ~
There is no love without our God.
Enter, for the kingdom is nigh,
Reach in and ask He’ll not deny.
There are blessings awaiting you,
Hope in Him, and He’ll see you through…
Open your heart, for it is home
Remember God is on the throne ~
When despair strikes – Give it to God,
Search your heart and home it’s not hard ~

Build me a home, build it just right
Offer me views, fill it with light
A strong foundation that will hold its weight
Walls and a ceiling that rise to the sky
I know you can do it please won't you try
Rooms expansive now that would be so great
A kitchen cabinet to hold every plate
Yes a big oven to make apple pie
Friends will come visit
our home will be a retreat
The front door left wide open
to welcome each guest
I am sure it will happen
if only you will say yes!

So sorry Laura for the loss of your Grandma. She has kind eyes.
miss take or given
no is the quietest word
her (your choice) says yes
Lord, please fill our hands today
And make us holy unto You
Please take all sin and guilt away
That we might raise clean hands to You
Fill our hands that we might be
Your ministers who spread Your Word
Till all the earth Your reign shall see
Till all have known and all have heard
Fill our hands, that we might spread
The glad, good news of liberty
That You have risen from the dead
To save our souls and set us free
Fill our hands that we might fight
And train our fingers for the war
To stop the wrong, defend the right
Fulfilling what You made us for
Fill our hands with strength, that we
Might heed whate’er You say to do
Equip our hearts that we might be
Your witnesses of what is true
Fill our hands, that we might guard
The covenant we made with You
For Your commands are not too hard
The things we promised, we shall do
Fill our hands that we might be
A temple made of living stone
That in us might Your presence be
Within our hearts, Lord, take Your throne
Fill our hands with Your strong hand
That leads us toward Your mission’s call
That guides us homeward, to Your land
Please consecrate us, Lord of all!
Move me into the light
Pull me away from these ghosts
Fill me with something I can feel
Awaken every inch of me with your touch
It's like waking from a nightmare
Your hands keep me burning inside
Longing for more
Your mouth electrifies me
Needing you deeper and deeper
Pushing,pulling,screaming,awakening to something primal
Everything fades as you sink your teeth into my skin
Nothing left but desire
Move in me
Harder and harder
Until everything explodes
And all that is left is peace
In the fire that surrounds us
An escape to a place I can lose myself
If only for a moment that feels like eternity
Tasting you
Touching you
Feeling you as I come undone
Unhinged from this world
The deeper you go
The harder you move
The more you shake me to my core
A pls only you can find
I long to be your slave
Take your fill of my time
Does it thrill you?
Do I play every right chord in you,
Or do I dethrone your frustrations
Into raw rage?
Take your fill of my time
Does it pleasure you?
Have I breastfed your ego
With my warm, mindful nip?
I can hear my efforts drip, drip, drip
Take your fill of my time
Will it please you?
Or will it rot and dissuade you?
I feel you disengage,
Until it is I in that raw, raw rage
Take your fill of my time
Will it fail you?
The drips turn into spurts
Till it is my tears you feed on
And it hurts…
Take your fill of my time
Will I miss you?
When I have nothing left to give you
When I turn the other way
And you disregard the sweet, sweet sway
You and I will hear the drips no more
The rage will empty into the desolation
That truth can only replenish
I must unfasten myself from your tirade
To find a rant of my own, and a way
Will I regret every second of my efforts?
Can I dare breathe without my soul being drained?
Will you never learn
That all that I have lost from you
Cannot the same be gained?
So take your last sip of my time
Will it redeem my worth?
Shall I bite again into the joy I seek?
Or shall I dwindle away
Into solitude’s deep?
sky
romantic
breast
colorful
bow
with no shaft
white pigeon
flying over sky
spreading love
closed eyes, breathing fast
existence
in twin one human
spring leaves dance slowly
as humming sound of couple
in alone green wood
let's fill the empty red soul
now pink sky greets us
to idyllic Shangri-la
