Premium Member Opportunity Knocked
He could have studied harder in school
   He knew he should have, but he didn't

He thought to ask his sweetheart to wed
   He knew he ought to, but he didn't

He planned to try harder at work
   He knew he...

Knocked Down
Knocked down

When I’m down I’m miserable,
But that won’t do at all,
Reef up yer bloody bootstraps, boy,
Walk tall, don’t bloody crawl.

Depression black has arrived,
Kick it up the cods,
Don’t drag yer feet, tiptoe n jive,?
And rise above the odds.

Let the mighty spirit in you surge,
Feel it’s strength...

Yet Again the Door Is Being Knocked
Yet again the door is being knocked
For ages it’s been closed
Who is there?
The Sun looks down
Breeze Halts!
Tulips raise their heads
But the Cascade___still singing like an indifferent Bee

Knock___ knock___ Knock! 
How persistent the knocking is!!
But who is there?
Its light from the peepholes
Enlightens the valley
Fills the Tulips...

         build a door."

Knocked Down Then I Get Up Again
Not born of fault but
purely down to chance
Each personal plight
leads troublesome dance

External factors
genes lifestyle and age
Start this desperate
denial why me stage

Physical, mental
emotional state
Well being affects
all those who relate

Sciences detect
deliver quicker
Families worry
don't want you sicker

You know your treatment
comes down to finance
Health Board decisions
can influence chance

It's a...

Mr Anxiety Man Knocked On Your Door
Mr. Anxiety man knocked on your door,
you opened, and there he was. 
You slammed the door and then you realize he was still there. 
He looked you in the eye, he watched you run, 
you tried to hide. 
Your heart almost stopped, 
you tried to...

Knocked Out By a Coffee Pot
I decided to clean the kitchen counter today but almost got knocked out after hitting myself in the head with the coffee maker. It was stuck to the counter from some spilled coffee and after pulling gently a few times I finally gave it one...

Premium Member Jesus Knocked
If Jesus knocked on your heart today,
Would you welcome him or send him away?
Would you ask him to come back another day?
Or would you listen to what he had to say?

Jesus knocked on my heart one day.
I could have told him to go away,
But I...

Forget I Knocked
He came knock knockin' on heaven's door,
Hat in his hand and boots on the floor.
St. Pete said,"Son, what you doin' here?
You ain't scheduled for many a year."
The cowboy said,"Well, I thought that, too -
But longhorns don't think like me and you."
He told a tale of...

He Knocked Me Off My Feet
Today i knocked off early
What a day it was
Impatience is riding my soul
Like a hungry horse in the field
Anxious to reach the bus stop

I waited for my bus ride
Singing and counting the minutes
I dressed like a lil girl
Waiting to see her 1st crush
Grinning from ear...

Age Knocked On My Door
My head is in a real bad state
My memory is running late
I feel like I am going mad
My eyesight now is really bad
My teeth have now come to an end
Impossible to ever mend
My confidence has been destroyed
Through all the things I once enjoyed
My body is...

I Knocked On the Door
To my dreams
asking to be allowed 
to escape to another 
time and place...
The door opened and I
fell into your arms,
again...
A sweet and complete
surrender.

Cynthia...

When Life Knocked
My second chance in life came after my first.
I failed miserably, feeling defeated and cursed.

The start of my second go-around came unexpectedly. 
It happened out of the blue, unpredicted and randomly.

It all started on the day life knocked on my door.
I answered it hesitantly, nervous...

I Get Knocked Down
“I get knocked down but I get up again, they aint ever gonna keep me down,”
But I always wind up looking like a toothless bloody clown,

“Late that night I saved the life of Ringo,”
And then I got arrested for almost playing bingo

“I got stripes all...

Premium Member Knocked Out a Poem
I train my body, every second day 
rest of the time, stretch my mind 
Pumping iron, playing heavy metal 
adds more weight, depth to rhyme 

Hitting a punchbag, lets off steam 
jabbing hard, tightly packed foam
Burning calories, fires up my brain 
honed thoughts, will create...
