Best Glittering Poems

Be Not Tempted By Gold's Glittering Brights

Where couldst man find rest when heart has deceived
loved ones he wouldst happily give his all,
whilst on dark paths, false laurels thus received
profits only fools under fallen walls!

Shadows presenting wicked and false lights
oft penetrate even truest of hearts,
find only...

The ocean's surface glitters,
Reflecting the eyes of all,
As smiling spectators gather,
To witness nature's call.

The waves crash against the shore,
In a mesmerizing dance,
As the sun's rays shine down,
Creating a sparkling trance.

The colors of the water,
Are ever-changing and bold,
As the deep blues turn to greens,
And the purples...

As the moon bathes me with ardent solace where does my day lead, 
as I’m drawn to you with bleeding tears


I will trace your lead in this concrete web
Holding effortlessly still
surrounded by dim veil

City illumination lends means
to its forged beating soul
Intoxicating control
drawing to false streets...

I was a fool who made waste in this parsimonious world.
It was nonsensical of me to think that I could find comfort
outside the covenant of your love.
When I was famished you became my portion.

When my soul was distant from the truth and I was spiraling
down...

GLITTERING GENERALITIES

I vow that you will be happily effected
If I am elected by your selection
At the forthcoming election.
With great dedication 
I shall diligently bother
To uphold the glory of this great nation
Founded by our forefathers!
National debt,
Is dragging us under,
Forlornly unmet,
Tearing us asunder!
I shall keep economy healthy
By...

A candle flame does not flutter
And is not extinguished,
For it is determined to glitter
And not to be  tarnished!
Said “ Dear devout,
Halt a moment and hark!
Here is a blemish-less monk,
Even in the dark!!”...

Glittering—glowing
Flashes across the dark sky
Bolts of lightning shrieks...

The voices asked me, how I am?
Told them,"Fine", they won't understand.
The Cassiopeia seemed to ask again, 
The same question I've been imagining for days.

While gazing out of the French window,
And watching the beautiful but fatal snow,
I wonder how a man would feel,
Packed in the same...

meteors shower
underneath the fierce boulder

Oh, shiny gold
Reflect light to lead my way
Home away from home
Simpler times gave way to now

Oh, my friend
Oh, my simple shining friend
You were there
As a child went through life

Now a man
Now a man grants you your life again
Not the same, yet
You’re welcomed blurred through tears

Oh,...

All around me
I notice glittering lights that seem so bright
in a dark world.

At night
I look up at the sky
And see glittering and twinkling stars.
They seem so far away
But give me a sense of joy

At night in the sky
I also see the moon
Glittering happily
And keeping me...

As you smiled your eyes held mine and glittered-
my heart flipped and love flickered
