Best Intersection Poems
Intersection of InterbeingCould it be that two city streets meet at a portal
of awakening that leads to enlightenment?
May your next frontier be "Inter-Be" discovery.
Nearly forty years ago on July twenty-fifth,
working in the center city of Philadelphia
I was walking to make a noon business meeting
and noticed a hippie...

Intersection of Timei stand haphazardly
at the crossroads of life
on one side
they are gathered
hands extended outwardly
ready to welcome me
on the other side
you reach out
tempting me
with the same passion
as this very dawn
i linger on the edge
weighing my choices
carefully trying to decide
which road to follow
love is not an option
when...

You’ve Passed By This Intersectionyou’ve passed by this intersection enough times to know whose light turns green after
you’ve had those petty fights enough times to know that neither of you really mean what you say
you’ve been in this traffic jam enough times to know that it was actually better...

The Intersectionthe sign itself doesn’t
stop
like my heart,
red and cornered.
a flashing soul faces you
eager to make the turn
onto a one-way street,
called time....

Intersection of Justice and MercyJustice,
is not the sound:
of a banging gavel,
as the result of a man's decision.
It is found in the laughter of orphans,
or in the quiet tears of a widow's distress.
Justice, does not announce its presence noisily,
nor does it appeal to mere reason or fleeting thought.
It is in...

IntersectionA square in a square
Four lines equal length
Then repeated
People pass through
And over and around
Tires squeal
Lights change colour
Dogs on leashes
Rain soaked pavement
The foundation for this
Fifteen stories up
It all becomes clear
Life carries on
Under an umbrella...

Selling Flowers At the Cardboard IntersectionHIM
I didn't ask to be born
neither did you.
And of all the shoes I've worn
you've walked very few.
My first job was to gather eggs
I was four then.
The welts on my legs
were for bringin' in
less was expected.
Five, eight, twelve
eighteen came uninspected
beatings delivered by unintrospective
role model.
Family values passed...

IntersectionI drifted through the mists of timeless lands;
Emerging from the clouds I saw your face.
Possessed by my own joy I felt my hands
Upon you as we stood in an embrace.
The past year manifests inside a dream
And culminates in your angelic touch.
And nothing that I contemplate...

The Point of IntersectionJust the story of two points
directed to be different lines
As her dice destiny throws
two little lines were coming close
The game of destiny shows
How innocent lines of friendship,
care and affection grows
Unknowingly, Unintentionally
during moving in their own direction
Oh! they meet at a point
called 'The Point Of Intersection'
All...

Prospector At the IntersectionIt was just another road construction
Of a brand new super highway,
Only seconds just saved from destruction
On that cold, cloudy winter day.
The back hoe was about to crush it sure,
When the archeologist whoaed—
And they gently pried open and then tore
The pine box so long ago sowed.
Inside...

IntersectionPeople meet
Not knowing
Greatest thing about happen
Something to love
Something to hurt
Situations
Cirumstances
Responsibilities
Roadblock
Making climax and twist
Reducing chances
To make it happen
Two people
Holding sparks to each other
Discreetly
Afraid of the unknown
Against rules and regulations
Hoping it will happen
Somehow
In this nonsense
To make sense and true
No matter what
Reality ultimately shines strong
On...

IntersectionThe words kept echoing in her mind
Like lightning in a stormy night
Her Heart forgot its rhythmic schemes
Missed several beats
A baffled smile came first
Then a rainbow burst with all its colors on her face
How long did she wait
For those three magical words...
