Best Lead In Poems


Premium Member To James
We walk in the ocean against the tide.
We hold on tightly to survive the ride.

This life is not easy
This love not in vain
We try to walk closer
We try to sustain

There are times when our hold breaks
And one of us will fall.
But the other stands near...

An Interview of Mike On His Absence and Dramatic Return- Conducted By Himself
M. So Mike I hear you've been gone?

MH. Why yes I have!

M. Why the absence?

MH. I just needed some time to clear my head.

M. That should have taken no more than a couple minutes

MH. Ahhh...no, I was gone a couple weeks. I was going to...

Beautiful Music - a Repost
Beautiful music  


Caress my neck softly
Hold my body close to yours
Tempt these sweet chord progressions
Acoustic desired freestyle 
Finger my frets with delicate touches
Mother of pearl inlays sweat
Bend my vibrating strings
Crank my volume knob high
Sliding capos moan
Play lead in poetic rifts
Soundhole oozes sensual melodies
Gouging pickguard’s...

Fickle Sweet Heart
Love
A sting of devotion
It's wild emotion and smiles
It's being so caught up in the moment
Wind lifts up caution, your guard down for miles
You can't sleep, you can't eat, you can't stop to concentrate
You're constantly lost in your thoughts and perpetually running late
The world is still...

Premium Member Streets of Juhu, Mumbai
On the streets of lively Mumbai,
Close to the sandy Juhu,
They serve Chaat and Masala Chai,
To make your heart go Yoohooo!!

The English, Locals and Arabs!
Jews, Africans and Chinese!
Gather to the aroma of the herbs,
And to relish the Indian Cuisine!

Vending stalls have lined the route,
As the natives...

I Have a Dream
Sing me the song of the seventh moon
That orbits the planet of Tralaloon.
Where plants and animals might be the same,
The only way to tell is to ask them their name.
The animal’s names all start with a “C”
Like Curt or Carl or Cuallabee.
Which helps the inhabitants...

Man With the Ticket
Going 80
In a 50 zone
Cruising along
Singing my song
I like this beat
Lets crank it loud
Driving this road
Losing the load

I've got the wheel
Mic in my hand
The spot light is mine
Lead in the band
Whats that flashing?
Its the man
The man with the ticket

Saw him last week
In the 30 zone
When...

Premium Member Hippocampus Saddled In Daydreams
HIPPOCAMPUS SADDLED IN DAYDREAMS

Hippocampus saddled in the vast sea, one of God’s superimposed dreams.
In miniature form these seahorses be, an aquatic burst of genius it seems.

Hippocampus in old Flossie form, spotted from the Scottish shores.
A frightful nightmare, not the norm, thus shiver in my corporeal...

Premium Member Church Lady Cat
Church Lady Cat was a formidable, skinny, ugly wrinkly old crazy thing.
Never showed a smile, and certainly did not cheerfully hymn-sing.
We saw her at church, and knew she would come and get the money.
No man in town had ever called this old prissy baby or...

Autumn Leaves Fall
I folded my umbrella after the rain stopped  
the little beads of water formed crystals
on the golden leaves of autumn laying on the ground
I put away my parasol and shook the water off

I really enjoy walking in the rain I get a good feeling
when...

Old Folks Are Worth a Fortune
OLD FOLKS ARE WORTH A FORTUNE

Old folks are worth A fortune
With silver in their hair, gold in
Their teeth, stones in their kidneys,
Lead in their feet and gas in their stomachs

I have become more social the passing
Of the years. I’m seeing five gentlemen every day
As soon...

My Dream India
My Dream India
In the India of my dreams,
All are with Toys and Ice-Creams.
Every Dad can fulfil his family needs,
And kids will make us happy with their deeds.
After reaching Mars, we'll go after another galaxy,
Ahead in alternate energy or urban radio taxi.
Education and food for all...

Premium Member Across Our Savanna
From shore to shore coast to coast
We’re the nation with the most

The most of what well lets just see
We lead in infidelity

We lead in sin that is for sure
Pay on Sunday is the cure

I think about our Countries plight
Seems like we have lost all sight

We’re...

Father To Son - a Monologue
Life is full of many important decisions my son
Each decision is a step closer to your future
Every step could lead in many directions, as a man, you must choose one
Do not decide your path on others convictions, examine your own beliefs first
There is nothing worst...

Jesus Is the Only Way To Heaven
Jesus Is The Only Way to Heaven!

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
As people travel from all kinds of directions.

The directions for some seem easy to find.
Many follow what has entered their mind.

Some are looking for an “easy way out.”
And are often confused...
