Best Louder Poems

A kind word, of course,
Can soothe the flustered soul or bring a smile
To a frowning face. That’s a given, but
In one’s troubled times, words still are
Only words.
Naked they become, for we see right through them when
Sincerity is misspoken and devoid of thoughtful deed.

Simple gestures are...

Actions Speak Louder Than Words


Actions versus words
Actions speak louder
Louder is figurative
Louder is expressive
Figurative language is effective
Figurative does not truly speak
Effective is deeply important
Effective is walking the talk
Important lessons must be demonstrated
Important lessons show you don’t tell you
Demonstrated lessons are shown like an exhibit
Demonstrated lessons than...

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

One grows fond of all the involvement one has with society

To what end do we extend those words of forgiveness said so easily

You spend all those days and weekends

With those they say they are your friends

Those that say they will watch...

A quiet teenager named Tina
Had bullies use words to demean her
But my memory lingers
cos she stuck up two fingers
then pushed them into the marina!

Let me hear your words,
And 
Let them fill me like written secrets in a book.
So natives of this earth will look,
At me and see your visions of a better world.

Let me hear your words of peace,
A little bit louder.
So your voices can be my voice,
Like...

"In the Silence, Louder than Sirens"

lux vitae bodies merge with minds
the silent universe inside us
makes Love louder than sirens

(LadyLabyrinth / 2023)







“In the silence, love inside us
In the silence, loving guidance
In the silence, love inside us
In the silence, loving guidance
In the silence, peace and quiet
And the...

quintella (Spanish quintain) in pentameter

Hard-working spider, you do your part,
instinctive busy spider that thou art.
You speak without doubt as you weave your web.
It is we humankind that tend to ebb
and surge, trying to balance mind and heart.

One day man, I'm down, oh my restless soul.
On...

In the blink of an eye and remorse far away
Your wavering heart blistered away my loving years

Your verbal pleasantries seem to mock 
Your artful facade with a serpentine sting

In the beatific moments your need was me
We spent lucid loving hours spent at comfortable ease

New beginnings...

With a whispered thought comes a dream
To be above the shame and guilt
Of losing pride in what would seem,
To most, the whole of what we built.

With a quiet thought comes the fear,
And shadows close the doors of reason.
I see racing frames of pictures clear, 
Rendering...

Actions please us deeper than just words-
though teasers talk up promises so made
with words that sound like songs of pretty birds;
the music's sweet, but sours when pledges fade.

Words flow smoothly, soothing heart and mind
with hopeful thoughts that all too soon escape.
These words that tease are...

You clapped for them and they were quiet for you
Often strangers clap louder for you 
Than people you thought you knew
Many tell you that they want to see you grow
But many of them enjoy seeing you when you are at a low!
Smile for the haters
You...

paper hearts can never foil 
the obvious from happening 
you speak of despair 
like you come 
from a place of happiness 
you fuel me 
like the water liquor burns 
we move 
like the fire of hearts 
young and torn 

after all you're left for dead
you...

Angry shouts echo off of plaster walls,
Painting them sickening shades of despair.
She tries to block the noise out;
But nobody seems to care.
The words aren’t meant for her ears,
She is not the one who the barbs are meant to sting,
But with their searing heat and deadly...
