Best Heroines Poems

The character of a hero is one to covet
Through hard work, and exceptional courage
A man of distinction you cannot miss.
Noble full of strength to achieve his goal
Doing all possible according to his ability
One aim, one plan.

Alexander Graham bell and Winston Church hill
Both have a story...

Heroes and Heroines (In Honor of Park Center Outreach)

Today, I stepped off the pedestal of important footsteps that leave no impact, to a world
of kindness and brutality, and I felt alive.

Today, I stepped off the pedestal of eloquent words with little meaning, to a world...

It isn’t hard to find a heroine
among the women that one knows.
God had enough faith in their valor
to trust them with childbearing woes.

There was an outstanding heroine
in the news when I was young,
of whom the praise was endless
and admiring songs were sung.

Aviation was still in...

Unsung Heroines Sung

below in palace kitchen
over fire in wattle hut
during lunch breaks coffee chatter
or the health spa apres sweat
where ever women gather
when ever women are
comes a quiet time of voices
a calm time, feelings slowed
then silence……
for a moment gentle communion flows.
in this precious, timeless space
our bardic...

As you have saved me all my life.
You have saved me from every terrain.
Every tragedy.Every moment of loud cry. 
How do you fly so fast with out a cape,plane or wings?
With out supernatural power. 
Supernatural you are not,but equal...

Lost Heroines

Anna K. had her train
Virginia her river Ouse
Emma B. chose poison
And Janice heard 
and succumbed to
the false seduction 
of her lethal needle.

So many distraught, gifted souls
Lost in that far country
Unable to find the thread 
that could lead them back

Dancing recklessly to the precipice
Until that...

When I was a child all of the faerie tale heroines were blonde.
Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Gretel, Tinkerbelle and Goldie Locks.
Being brunette does not make sense to a five-year-old.
The prince is not coming for me.
My hair is too dark.
I do not have blue eyes either.
The Anderson...

I watched “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” last night - we’re going to be reading Truman Capote’s book after the break and I wanted to start thinking about it. The movie rewrites Truman Capote’s story, turning it into a romcom, completely eliminating the book's gay themes. I’d...

A celebration of heroes and heroines, dead and living. 

They sold their lives
For the price of nothing 
And surrendered their entire being 

- Spirit: 
They pleaded with God
For His intervention
In alleviating man's troubles
They wrestled with forces
That caused people to err

- Soul: 
They showed their love...

Today, I am sixty-four years young; my spirit sings.

To those who stood for me, I salute and praise,
Your sacrifices and love, forever in my gaze.

To the brave hearts who fought for my independence,
I hail thee; your courage sets me free.

To the fallen heroes and heroines,
Your...
