Best Fourth Poems

Wild spirit -
I cherished you tender 
within my halo of prana;
careful not to hurt you
as I worked to set you free
using hands of peace
in harmony 
with my heart's song 

I beheld your fragile form 
of freedom lost 
as your panicked eyes 
pleaded release..
and in those...

In Love, Our Romance Flows In Kissing Streams,
Poets Tribute Series, fourth poet, Lord Byron

Claim I, thy wondrous heart into sweet dreams,
And in that soft glowing realm we slow dance;
In Love, our romance flows in kissing streams,
As Cupid's well-shot arrows took no chance.
From this teeming earth...

Fourth of July, Independence Day for the United States, and
On the news political speeches praising the nations heritage, then
Reading of the declaration in deep proud voices and joyful singing.
The country will celebrate with parades and fireworks and ceremonies,
Hanging the flag outside their homes and having...

This 4th Of July

To my fellow Americans, 
during this 4th of July.
I have a thought.. . Here's why…

When we salute our flag
 ever so grand.
Our country's foundation
 is sinking in "quicksand."

This is because.   From God...  
We're way "off course."
Driven by lust, greed

"The Process of Mending"
by:  Eric L. Boddie

Before I ever thought that I would write
Radiance, conquered your inner light
On the occasion that you just might
Keep all the pain you have in clear sight
Eric knows that this is not right
Nothing in you is negatively bright
What I...

It’s the fourth - fireworks; the fizzle of stars.
The colorful display of power of the people —
waving of the red, white and blue; freedom
rings, slowly, building to a crescendo
to include all the melting pot called the USA.

Resilience and fortitude; weathered the wilderness
where an unlearned cabin-patch...

Now far offshore and beaten by the waves,
into the wind, they pulled to no effect.
The choppy seas, enough to quell the brave,
lept o’er the gunwales, merciless, unchecked.

He came to them, the fourth watch of the night;
not recognizing him, they were dismayed.
Thinking a ghost, they cried...

July fireworks bring together families and friends 
for a much needed vacation from worries and work.
Picnics at and on the lake just for memorie's fond taking.
I remember the days of old when watching a movie 
outside amongs't the stars and moon.
Playground equipment of a slide...

Founding fathers believed in freedom of the press, religion, speech, assembly, and petition.

Opportunity must be opened to all.

United we stand and divided we fall.                     ...

“Fair fa’ your honest, sonsie, face
Great Chieftain o’ the Puddin-race!”
“Address To A Haggis”, Robert Burns, 1786.
(Keeper o’er the Fourth Kingdom)

Robert, Robert, Fourth Kingdom
Gate Keeper.
No Telestial glory
Befits the poet deeper!

Wherefore is thy legacy
Robert Burns, regretfully
Wherefore is thy Haggis?
Thy Puddin’ flees before thee.

Thy Hippopotami give birth
Purple, purple,...

C-ome fourth October, 
H-appiness you shall feel; 
A-side from a million mirth, 
R-apture will bring a thrill.
I-n fourth October morn
L-ight will brighten the day; 
Y-our moment will be filled with
N-othing but the sun-ray.

D-awn in fourth October
O-ffers one better clime; 
M-isty morning has turned
I-nto clear and...

I was born on March fourth, 1983.
But, I believe I was born, to march forth.
What I mean is, I was born to never give up.
To never quit.
To keep trying.
To walk my own path.
To keep going, no matter how dark my days get.
To continue on, no...

Continuation from previous poem

We reached the footer of a castle steep,
Seven times by walls encircled very tall,
Defended by a river hard to leap.

We overpassed it as hard ground at all;
Through seven doors I entered with these wise:
We reached a fresh green lawn nice to enthrall.

There...

There's 3 loves in a lifetime
Or so we've all been told
But when they don't work out
Is there still one more to hold

It may seem a little rough
But with any kinda luck
I'll find my fourth love...

This time I'll get it right
Our conversations
Lasting deep into the night

All...

Fourth canto (first part)

The deep slumber was broken in my head
By a strong thunder, so that I woke up
As person forced to arouse from bed;

My rested eye I moved around then deep,
Erect uprisen, and also stared straight
In order of the place a knowledge to buildup.

It’s...
