Best Go For Poems

Life is a dangerous struggle 
Full of inconsistencies, challenges and pains
Life is not fair even to the fair skinned 
The dark skinned are not faring better either 
In everyone's backyard a little rain must drop 
Whatever be your lot, set your goals and go for...

LETTING GO

Lingering claw marks denied my compliance 
Etching my desire into their defiance
Tears that say good-bye to ages passing
Tears that hide a Dad’s love everlasting
Indifference, feigned stoicisms lie -
Nurturing the strength to let them fly
God may be the wind beneath their wings

God may promise them...

How do you feel when the love of your life
Whispers those three magical words
Perhaps you're feeling the glow of contentment
You get from the bees and the birds

Knowing that someone thinks you're real special
Makes your little world's worth living
You wake up each morning with a smile...

You are quiet, yes, but not alone
You crept into the library at night
Snuck out to the cinema to enjoy a B-grade sci-fi - or even a cheesy chick flick

Go for it and set the standard of excellence 
Have proper execution 
Implement your strategy 
Carry out the mission

It’s scary to venture from out of your walls
Into the realm of an instinct that calls
Resistance is futile when the seed is sewn deep
Whose curious fingers reach into your sleep

When the spark of intent grows strong in your breast
Like a flower breaks through from its...

Go For It..

You stand and wait-You sit and dream-
What is your fate, your destiny
If the future doesn't come toward you, 
you have to go and fetch it.
If all you want seems far away 
you have to run and catch it....

If you are in love
Take stock of your actions.
Because words like dove
secure no affection.

Hold their hand
Kiss their face
Slide on a golden band
show they can't be replaced.

Love is for the warriors of doing
the disciples of yes
Take that chance, get going
Impress....

gold,
gleaming,
gilds the light,
quickens pulses,
making eyes go wide,
waking up greed,
steels resolve,
sets goals:
gold!...

me mate duckbill platypus
feels claustrophobic in my car

me other mate asked me to be his running buddy
we ran once, then he said it was too cold

what a load of rubbish
the river of death that finishes a hard life

when we ran, he fell to his knees
calling...
