Best Floats Poems
Beauty FloatsFloating beauty, she glides across the lake.
Her gown flutters in the wind with each stride.
It feels like a dream but I am awake.
This vision comes to me on gentle tide.
I take her hand as she steps on the shore.
She says, "I'm yours to do with...

Whatever Floats Your BoatShe floats like a message in a bottle
on a massive ocean of crystal blue waves
towards a horizon she never reaches.

The Dust That Floats In the DaylightNo one knows what
The dust that floats in the daylight is
Small specks of dirt I'm told
Or bits of flowers, or skin, or mold.
I, of differing opinion, am
Concerned myself with its essence
The dust that floats in the daylight
Are naught but lit old souls
A special pair...

A Feather FloatsLight falls amongst light, not a shadow's might
blown past chill of day with tepid winds
graceful as a feather floats
down in silence
beheld nearer a beauty rests
before bent visions
held in check from sultry seas
breaking where fragrance...

- All Tears Floats Into the Ocean -Of fire and colors a cosmic dimension is reflected
by your heart flame of polished silver
The stars shine sharply, sweet thoughts in a dream
Which travel through the vast heaven
Like the river flows safely to the sea
Why is the sea salty - perhaps tears of grief, loss...

Hope FloatsFrail hearts’ bond fractures
Hope’s glacier slips ‘neath cold sea
Chilled memories drift away
Frozen dreams sever
Forever vows abandoned
Titanic phenomenon
Healing ebbs and flows
Suicidal solitude
Hope struggles, floats to surface
Yes, the sun still shines
Hold close faith’s life preserver
Live to welcome love again

Whatever Floats Your BoatWe big spending
Humans
Are way
Too technology
Existent.
Vexed by the simpler,
Early lifestyles of our ancestors;
Remember that there is a cheaper way to do everything.
For instance,
Look
Over
At
The Amish
Sects.
Year after year, they survive
On the ways of nature;
United by their beliefs;
Rare though, they may be.
By living
Only by the simplest methods,
Are they...

The Ocean That Floats and SinksLife is like an ocean
And a dreamer is like the ship that floats on it
Dreams are built out of lack and limitations
Such are the salty waters on which you must float
Ocean water is too salty to drink
Yet on it the boat floats best
Your dreams are...

On a Passing Cloud, There Floats a DreamOn a passing cloud, there floats a dream…
With a prayer to God declaring my faith-anchored commitment:
To live for Him by His strengthening enforcement
And to triumph against pride’s engulfment
While surrendering my all to His empowerment.
On a passing cloud, there floats a dream…
With a message to...

On a Passing Cloud There Floats a DreamDo you ever lie down in grass and gaze,
pretend no duties call and let mind float,
play which knight wins the furious battle
somewhere in the wisps above daylong haze?
A lizard morphs into war time schooner.
Raise those sails! Ready the scope! Man the wheel!
Take a journey crossing...

blown past the day but with tepid winds
graceful as a feather floats down by silence
behold nearer a beauty rests before
bent visions held in check from a sultry sea
breaking where fragrance parts
It dwells in...
