Best Handpicked Poems

The pieces of peace were handpicked
Picked in the heart of the night 
Shredded for an aspiration 
To clutch the lone torch contained by the dark
A glimpse for some unusual rank

Then comes the arrival of time  
With the angst that grow by day 
Comes the...

Alone I roam the dreamland wood
sombre and empty, dark my mood
vain hope to meet my love denied
a throbbing, pumping ache inside 
afar a gleaming stream of blue:
mauve, purple, lilac mixed in hue
‘longside the one in dreams is mine
soft hazel eyes and features fine
 
He becks...

Turning the pages of God's coloring book
Beauty everywhere we look
Human minds cannot comprehend
The Greatest of artists and His pen

Each season, paints a different scene
Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring
The sun in summer, so yellow and bright
Forests of green such a beautiful sight

Vivid blues take on the...

True love is unquestionable. 
What is true love?
To me; it is more feeling based rather than definitively worded. 
Emotional attached, formed mentalities that are equally paired with an immaculate physical connection. 
Collected bi-gender, shared love—
She’s out there.
He may be too afraid. 
Hidden in there; inside...

I seem to fall in love constantly; 
Seem to find it everywhere I go, 
Half buried in the sand, like pieces of fallen moon 
Waiting me to pick it up and devour it – 
To shred myself to ribbons from the inside
The serrated edges slashing...

The night air crisply flows
 Brushing past my sill with a caress
The final blooms of the magnolia's
 Upon her skin, fragrantly confess

 
Autumn’s wildflowers
Sit upon the boudoir ledge
Handpicked this morning
To their beauty she makes her
 pledge

 
Chiffon sheers move
With a sultry waltz in the breeze
Moonlight...

“Get out my house!” I screamed,

My face turning red.

I was sad, you were drunk,

Our relationship was dead.

You were out partying,

Whilst your family was at home.

Is it any wonder,

I felt so alone?

Your dinner was on the table,

But it always went cold.

I was only young,

But life was...

They leave us

But do they really leave us?

They leave the world
but
They don’t leave our hearts
They leave their bodies
but
Not the characters they embodied

Push the button, it all starts 
to end
They returned the gifts they were blessed with
Gently back into the places they came from

Wrapped in white...

The Lord offered His wondrous love
Bringing forgiveness from above
I’m handpicked.

Upholding my faith’s fervent zeal
His truth-covenant shows great seal:
God’s handshake.

Saviour’s branch I am; He’s the vine
My heart accepts His work divine
as handmaid.*

Mighty sovereign of my soul
He leads toward triumphant goal
not offhand.

With Christ making my life blissful
I...

She sits on her throne with a fixed smile on her ebony face
staring into the crowd, she sees the peasants all grim and dull
But the smiles on their faces tell her they have love, strength, and happiness

As a child in the Congo, she would swim...

It may sound incredible to the modern
The intelligent man may deride it often
Nevertheless, it is sensible to concede
That the heaven above ties nuptial knots. 

Facts are stranger than fiction indeed
For believers no stout logic is required
To understand the ways of providence
That works in a strange...

My name also Love, I am love

I am of deep endearment my name Beloved
