Best Global Poems
Global WarmingAs I wake up to the dawn of another day
I wrestle with myself and ask why bother
Just another day, without any warmth
There is a chill in my heart, sadly this is true
The coffee pot sings, an attempt to lift spirits
I confess I welcome even this...

1. I’m in this school because I’m learning real English.
I’m walking down the hallway and I’m speaking only English.
Here comes my homey, and he‘s telling me some stuff in English.

Global PoetryFor hearts which far apart do dwell
together they entwine briefly,
yet words of intensity tell
of a desire so profoundly.

Global Drama of Medical MarijuanaI feel as if walking inside
an impressionistic painting, that too in 3D
as far as I can see, a world of dots and light
the same as what I’m made of.
I see summer in spring.
My eyes touch the sky and sky me.
I feel people staring at me
but...

Global CitizenI watch myself before
This great mirror
Of the global village;
I am nolonger wearing
The blood-shot eyes of the moran-
The sun shines in my eyes,
And an enigmatic smile flames like
A promising dawn
On the threshhold of dusk;
From this great face too,
Rises the dawn in
A halo of flames....

Global Dystopia
Mogadishu ...
Black Hawk helicopter down
Caracas ...
Riots burning everything to the ground
New Orleans ...
Katrina tears has gotten many more drowned
Manila ...
Government death squads are roaming around
Global Dystopia
Earth frowns
Parents and children weeping,
sad mourning sounds
Everyday the sun comes up,
hope goes down
Bi’lin ...
Smouldering settlement protests sparks up
Baghdad ...
A covered...

BecauseBECAUSE
You opened up my eyes,
They turned towards the skies,
Clouds higher than I’d ever seen
The grass so green.
BECAUSE,
You opened up my eyes
You offered me first prize,
To see the stars at night
Showering us with light,
BECAUSE,
You opened up my eyes,
Let out depressed sad sighs
To see icebergs melting,
Culprit, global...

Put To the TestPUT TO THE TEST
Planet earth has been put to the test,
Everyone we hope is doing their best,
Unavoidable to sometimes feel depressed,
No family member for tea or a friend or guest.
My hands I am sure have become bleached,
Police and army around, law not to be breached,
Spanish...

Scarred and BlackenedScarred and Blackened
In Tasmania’s rugged but scenic South West
Lies an ancient land of pristine wilderness
Protected by a World Heritage Listing
An eco-system a thousand years nesting
A land of Aboriginal spiritual dreamtime
Where rare native flora survives, like Pencil Pine
And fauna abound on the Button Grass plains
With rugged...

Human's StupiditySea level rises... glaciers gradually melt
Global temperature is climbing the cliff.. Beware
But hey, G H gases don't exist.. Global warming is a myth
Throw everywhere in the streets, plastic and filth
Eat, and just leave disposal plate somewhere, anywhere
And dump wrappers in oceans and water...

New EyesHow did I not see this before?
The green of the trees
with their cornucopia of shades
Layered and punctuated periodically
with a unique dapple of light
Amid the litany of man's failing
concrete towers
The leafy giants stride imperceptibly
towards notoriety
Saving the planet
one gramme...

Show Your Love For Our Planet EarthLet’s come together
to save our planet
From Global warming
Reduce the greenhouse gases
From destroying … the atmosphere
Try our best to keep it clean from pollutants
The air we breathe…
Or there’ll be thunderstorms and flooding…
From rising seas
Can you hear mother Earth is calling…
“Come back to me”
I’ll give you...
