Best Jumpstart Poems
Have you longed to give your heart just for the sake of giving?
Withheld for years, for pain and tears spark fear that steals from living
a full, enriched, and glorious life where joy outweighs the sorrow ~
one in which one yearns to live, believing in tomorrow.
And if you thought to finally give what’s ached to be set free,
to make a change, jumpstart your heart, within a moment be
everything you hoped for but could never quite conceive;
then, once again, encountered thieves who lie, cheat, and deceive...
Would you then quit, throw in the towel, no more to fight again;
or hold on tight, steadfast, and strong and pray that love will win?
Engaging in a battle as such may introduce defeat,
but walk away and casualties will knock you off your feet.
Consider this, if it is true that earth is heaven’s floor,
then love should rule ~ a truth transcribed upon each person’s core.
Could we succeed in loving self as much as we love others,
we just might heal and bear the strength to stand aside our brothers.
Then, we could all give from the heart with kindness and compassion
for fear will lose all reasoning when love becomes the fashion.
In the quietude of morning, I write
rise early, pen in hand - a rite
though words sometimes stick and lodge there
in a brain cell - so stubborn!
Scribble some nonsense words
jumpstart free flowing
thoughts to appear
on paper
very
soon.
To lose our songbirds would be so tragic,
for their tunes hold a special magic.
And nature’s music unburdens the heart,
providing ebbing souls with a jumpstart.
The robin's chirp heralds the melting snow,
as the goldfinch serenades the meadow.
And in the spring, flocks of chickadees sing,
nesting near houses to rear their offspring.
Blue jays and nuthatches tweet from the trees
as woodpeckers rat-a-tat-tap with ease.
And crimson cardinals tweak overhead,
while tufted titmouse whistles are widespread.

I've felt your love within my soul,
fanning passion's flame in my heart.
And like I'd stepped into a hole,
I fell in love right from the start.
Destiny can't keep us apart,
for fate is in complete control.
And since all my walls fell apart,
I've felt your love within my soul.
In my daunting days, dark as coal,
you were my guiding light, sweetheart.
I was broken; you made me whole,
fanning passion's flame in my heart.
You didn't hit pause or press restart,
unlike others playing a role.
Offering my heart a jumpstart,
I've felt your love within my soul.
It seemed an impossible goal,
fanning passion's flame in my heart.
Yet, amidst life's rigamarole,
my heart found my soul's counterpart.
Knowing love's real, doubts depart,
freeing us to laugh and cajole.
My scribblings, to your eye, are art,
holding hands on a moonlight stroll;
I've felt your love.
Deep bass breaths blue soothing strong
Play me like Picasso piano all night long
Nibbles at my ear are a peach love song
So dear my heart cheers stringing me along
My knees melt like Swiss cheese
You fill all my gold holes
Fuchsia feelings like destiny
Embraces my heart jumpstart my soul
I am a sandy song
Which you determine kinetic key
Like guitar play teal thong
Make a romantic red melody
Let’s break burgundy rules
Play them like a bugle
Use pink passion as a tool
Use tongue to draw pink doodle
When the fat lady sings
You know that she felt sun
Never mind about denim dreams
She squirts sonnets just for fun
When he whispers, I'll love you forever,
and his words resonate deep in your heart;
I think it is the best feeling ever.
You'll never tire of hearing it, never;
for your romantic heart gets a jumpstart;
when he whispers, I'll love you forever.
Soulmates forge a bond that time can't sever:
he calls you baby; you call him sweetheart;
I think it is the best feeling ever.
Fear can set your pulse throbbing, however,
your anxieties, instantly depart;
when he whispers, I'll love you forever.
When you harbor no doubts whatsoever
and you know: come what may, you'll never part;
I think it is the best feeling ever.
You long to hear those sweet words whenever
anxieties and doubts threaten, to start.
When he whispers, I'll love you forever,
I think it is the best feeling ever!
When love feels upside down and falling apart
From affairs that deal directly with your heart
We tend to over think them from the very start
Stuck in your head like a pointed dart
Looking for the right answer to jumpstart
The beauty in love that feels like art
Baby with you I want us to never depart
We must prioritize this like we are so smart
Love with you always makes me feel shiny and new
Troubled waters between us make me feel sad and blue
How we lost our way I haven't any clue
I respect all that we share through and through
There is nothing in this world I would not do
To make all of our dreams come true
When we are together we are like glue
In love, we both share the same view
Honey let's find what's missing or overdue
What we see in each other is just a preview
Nothing about what we have I would undue
Love like ours we have to pursue
You know deep down inside it leads to I do's
Sharing our life is what God wants for me and you
She grew up, and was taught
that people are good.
Nobody would harm her, even
if they could.
But found as she has aged, not
all people are the same.
Even best friends, can turn on you
with hate and disdain.
Yet each new friend, she trusts with
all her naive heart.
Welcoming each, into her heart is a
warm and affectionate jumpstart!

Before you set out to face
the day
take a moment
to close your eyes
and free your mind
of all thought,
inhale deeply,
hold it for a few seconds,
then exhale slowly.
Did you feel that?
It's life energy
coursing through your body,
revitalizing your spirit.
Now close your eyes
again,,
Inhale deeply,
hold it for a few seconds,
then exhale slowly.
Did you hear it?
God's whisper,
subtle,
tranquil,
will guide you throughout
the day.
Now close your eyes
again,
inhale deeply,
hold it for a fel . w seconds,
then exhale slowly.
This will jumpstart
your day.
Then go out into the world
and chase your dreams,
and don't let anyone
steal your joy.
If they try,.
you know what to do,
close your eyes,
free your mind of all thought,
and listen for God's
whisper,
then smile,
feel His Amazing Grace,
and continue
your journey through time.
Coming from out of nowhere
somewhere in space
somewhere above
Somewhere my love
Running and running I was
Those son of a guns
Would pop me in my head
Pop pop pop on my face
Splat spla splat
Trying to dodge them
But to no avail
**** happens I guess
They were streaming down
millions of them
Some as big as a house
Some tiny itsy-bitsy ones
Couldn't even see the sun shine
Clouds people or :-) Faces
I was the marathon man
I ran,ran and ran for cover
But they were everywhere
Snowflakes got bigger and bigger
I kept running uphill downhill
Uptown downtown Chinatown too
And to my surprise came a large snowball
Bigger than life itself Rolled side-by-side
Parallel to me it did
Soon was consumed by all this snow
Sucked up by this larger than life snowball
Rolling by the countryside
In speeds of up to 65
And continuing on this journey
never-ending
Seemed time had stood still
Being a wayward vagabond
And adventurer at heart
Although a prisoner I didn't mind
In spite of the path that was chosen
Before being born
In All the confusion what I miss most was my girl
Sweet Maggie May
As I would call ,in the sweet tender moments
That only Shakespeare would write about
And Rembrandt paint..
With all the thoughts on my Maggie May
Seems the cold didn't bother me at all
When suddenly seeing this other ball
Even larger than my own
Roll along side
To my amazement there was someone in it
a person like myself
Woopie woopie dandelions
I can't Believe it
Happy :-) At a thought of having someone
so near wow
We finally came to a halt
In the frozen tundra below
Knowing that years and years
had passed me by
Looking across the other side
Gazing at the other ball of snow white
To see this other person a prisoner like myself
Put a smile to my face and jumpstart to my heart
It was totally electrifying
I wasn't alone anymore
Me Maggie May and Those big balls
Here comes the sun..
Meanwhile Doctor Kaunda reminded young
people in the country ascending the rung
of success they have a big role to play
with trappings of pride slung
in weaving together unity among unsung
swiftly tailored heroes, as sowers
reaping luxe fabrics of peace among
divinity, integrity, magnanimity,
and unity for this country.
He has however commended President
Edgar Lungu for his efforts in uniting recent
dichotomy, sans the various people in the country,
And speaking at the same event,
National Guidance and reminescent
Religious Affairs Minister
Reverend Godfridah
Sumaili sought riches for indigent -
says national unity and urgent
peace critical for development
of the geographical extent
spanning entire country
Reverend Sumaili says difficult
no matter how fervent
for Zambia to develop
if no unity among Zambians.
And earlier in his speech, Commodores
Vision Ambassador to Zambia
Chairperson Misheck Kombe yours
truly expressed concern to jumpstart
solution regarding regionalism and tribalism at heart
tearing Zambia apart, like inures
reflux resignation of meal,
thus Mr. Kombe underscores
how important each and every shores
Zambian to join the crusade complacent
against tribalism and regionalism
because it retards development for s'mores!
I feel your soul reaching out to my soul,
fueling flames of passion in my heart.
I didn't dare dream that I'd ever feel whole,
yet I felt your love take hold from the start.
Tears may fall, yet we'll never drift apart
for we became one when love took control.
And whenever our hopes need a kick-start,
I feel your soul reaching out to my soul.
Even on days that seem as dark as coal,
Love brings us closer together, sweetheart.
I'll never forget the first kiss I stole:
fueling flames of passion in my heart.
You offered me all your love could impart;
not just an actor with a minor role.
And before fate gave my heart a jumpstart,
I didn't dare dream that I'd ever feel whole.
I was overwhelmed by life's rigmarole,
searching for my elusive counterpart.
And love felt like an impossible goal,
yet I felt your love take hold from the start.
Despite our differences, doubts depart:
you like country; I prefer rock-and-roll.
I doodle, you appreciate fine art;
yet when we hold hands on a moonlit stroll,
I feel your soul.
Cheer charms clear clay
Aim arts apt aye
Deep deed digs day
Plot plays pure peace
Imp inks increase
Love lives life's list
Poise prunes prized ploys
Jumpstart just joy
Trust truth to toy
Wit wins wild woes
Live laugh love's lore
Mix music more
Clear choice claims cheer
Helpful hints hear
Feel faith free fear
Time tells true tales
Mind meets more mail
Sweet songs spell sale
Deep deed digress
Stale strains suppress
Pain paves progress

Simple works best to suit each face,
Thrill fond delight in easy steps;
Embark fine quest as ideas pace,
Value greets sight where good feel maps;
Enthuse the crowd with measured talk.
Jumpstart the need for great design,
Observe the proud as gains brave walk;
Boom firms the speed finesse aligns,
Set a sure pace for form and feel.
Apply the art of keen insight,
Poise charms the trace of tact and will,
Proof with sure heart the craft most bright;
Love frames meaning in gadgets sound,
Employ grand things where use astounds.

How did it come to this?
You and me down memory bliss…
Somewhere in between losing myself …
I misplaced the dust remover off my shelf…
Now I’ll march on, like a cheerful parade…
Smiling my big pearly whites, as you begin to fade...
I disguised the use, when you called me a broken down car…
Adjusting all the plugs under my hood, I reached in too far...
I touched and fondled every mound and tendency inside of me…
All my heart needed, was a brand new battery…
I found my own cure, reviving my broken heart disease…
Blocking the sunburn from jumping, on my heart, like a trapeze…
I got rocks stored in my pocket, that came with a guarantee…
Sustaining weight on my weakened knees, reassuring me warranty…
That I will get through this, without you to drive…
I have a map of the world, traced on my thighs…
You may have held the moon, but not anymore…
There are millions of galaxies for me to explore …
Once I face the dark and horrible truth…
That I didn’t like who I was, with you…
That’s why I shouldn’t be starving, for your attention…
When all you gave me, were paltry inventions…
Instead I’ll wave bye, at my shriveled heart’s cost…
And immediately stop sniffing, our love’s exhaust…
In time you’ll be nothing but a tumbleweed …
A random thought I won’t even keep…
When I’m fully restored, you’ll be left in the dust…
And I’ll be stronger than I ever was
