Best Known As Poems

Ohh the days have been many here
but that day her name was seen
struck a fear deep inside.
Could she really be that mean?

Time passed as her name 
echoed in my head aloud.
I looked at her work in amaze
at how beautiful she can inspire
the words in poems...

you carve your words precisely 
like a master does a flawless diamond
infuse your images on the head of a pin
not a letter wasted 

you who
speaks from deeper within 
with every new write

never one or one hundred reads suffices
each new recite reveals something new
grabs the readers...

One brother, not well-liked by me,
is friends with early light.
Born in a prior century,
he measures day from night.

He comes with neither fangs nor claws,
and yet it makes me cringe
to see him at my door because
he darkens evening’s fringe.

I much prefer his modern kin,
who from man’s...

I, I don’t understand the book known as bible
The book that is mostly common to many doors 
But the book that is not known and read by many souls
The book that is carried by many
But mostly it is not read and liked by any
The book...

Once upon a time there lived a girl that everyone called Sun Ray.
Truly, her smile was like a ray of golden sun,
for this young girl was always happy.
Each day, she ran to greet her forest friends:
the creatures of the forest, small and large.
The people of...

I am a banner that stands for hope and freedom,
I've been around for over 200 years,
I am the flag of the United States of America,
I am known as Old Glory.

I can be seen flying atop tall buildings,
I've passed in review to honor our Military,
Our Veterans...

They say you exist, 

but its only a matter if time,

until your basic human rights

slowly start to shut down,

and your forced to co-exist.

Until your basic human rights are known as a myth....

this shining burst strokes early day’s first shade
illumination flashing all corners of galaxy’s face
and this my name was marked in womb’s white lace~~
upon Dad’s request ,as training general abroad, was made

it was Mom’s first time to bear middle- child without Dad around
all present christened me...

At eventide, a vapor thick and cold
is creeping. Those that sleep are unaware
The world outside their homes it will enfold
as Goddess Moon hangs pouting in despair.
She can’t break through to show her light so fair.

But Dawn appears just at the break of day
and sees the...

My name is Charlie Munford
I am all Redneck, not a nerd
I have the gas sucking truck, big bald muddin' tires
I needed some money, so I sat my truck on fire
If you come over empty handed, no beer or snacks
Prepare for an old fashioned butt whippin'...

We were born identical
When we were created apart;
In very different wombs.
Now my mind runs to where you hide
Unobscured by camouflage
In the bright dim light of
Morally decade manmade nature.
I was created as spares for you,
But I think, and therefore I cannot
Spare you.
Spent by this affliction I...

One way to celebrate as a family
begins with everyone’s availability;
a reality to fulfill, a joy to keep
that enables one to take part
and be present with everybody.

It’s interesting to see and 
be part of their identity,
a family member, a sibling soul 
or a companion in a...

Perhaps being something of a contrarian and historian
I like to spend Sunday mornings playing American Top Forty reruns on the oldies station
because I enjoy the songs and stories related to me by Kemal Amin Kasem

Also known as Casey Kasem in his weekly broadcasts
He researches and...

Twixt Spring and Summer time,
Warm air congeals the cool and draws a line.
Far across the waters, farther than eyes can see,
Warm winds begin to dance with the currents of the sea.
Hurricane season lurks just ahead,
and WE wait, hoping for nothing that dreads.
Each season and region...

Usually don't know if I'm coming or going
A confused old dude is what I mean
Even sometimes put the cart before the horse
Makes for an real interesting scene

So now you know, I have finally confessed
Can't keep it a secret any longer
I'm quite a bit different from...
