Best Mean Poems

Where gilded autumn dazzles hazy morning
And golden leaves sprinkle on marigold beams
As sparrows dance and hummingbirds sing
Amble in my shadows on blue river’s prairies.

Tell me treacly secrets of whispering winds
Befriending sweet nectar on butterfly wings
When you hear me in lyrics of heartbeats
And sing me the...

See me; don’t just look at me.
Gaze into my warmth. . .adoringly.
Don’t utter words when the eyes can say so much.
Trace my face with your tenderest touch -
to love me like you mean it.

I’m your Aphrodite; handle me with care.
Let soft fingers linger in my...

A  r u s t l i n g  breeze through my soul when I am left breathless,
   a song to be sung in the dark of night when sleep can’t be found-
      A way to...

Lord you know all things
There is not even one word on my tongue
Or in my heart that you a haven’t heard 
Before I have even uttered them
I am full of awe of you- Selah

Even in my down times when I feel unwell
You are here with...

It don’t mean a thing
When there’s no bling, bling, bling
No gold adornment or diamond ring.
A brother buying Rolex
In clothes starched and well pressed
Never notices the sister
Selling jewelry to eat.

Yet,
Praise God for the sons of Adam
Made in the image divine
Say “bones of my bones, flesh of...

like flowers
in a zephyr of spring
she danced
in love's blossoms

she loved him
as much as any
inexperienced lover could
with all of her heart

she'd even die for him

oh how she giggled
...teasing about a text
from an ex lover
in a cute little way
inquisitively waiting
for his response

hoping his love was true
as any...

Silent shadows whisper wicked rumors from tawny tinted tents
Reflecting rueful random thoughts, such are their laments                             ...

In my quest to escape monotony at work I stumbled upon this poetry site
Little did I know I would excavate a gem with a zest for life
She is also a lullaby songstress; in between my spelling and grammar blunders, 
We’re a recipe for madness: crazy...

Harry Horsman; devilish rake, wild
Prodigy gunslinger as a child

WHAT THE!!!.........WHO IS THIS???
WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'VE BEEN PHOTO SHOPPED???
How could that possibly be?
I only wanted the picture cropped and framed!
You can't really think that looks like me!

When did I become seven feet tall?
My eyes are brown, not Malachite green!
You've made my arms longer...

You are a light at the end of a tunnel 
that shines so bright that leads me to safety in the night.  
You are a blanket of fleece 
that wraps around me holding me tight 
reassuring me it will be alright.  
You are...

Do not say yes when you mean to say no
Why would you carry the luggage of lies?
Sing; sing a sincere song wherever you go.

Many murderers toil to shun their shadow
Their deeds are not hidden, like the star in 
the skies
Do not say yes when you...

Fragrant magick candlelight flickers hot, 

blue, red flame stimulating sparks bind hands. 

Tame harmony remains. "Love." While love awakes

a wanderer of my emboldened heart;

gentle wind meander blows, and gusts oppose. 

I discern your quintessence in the breeze

emerging out of dust of dry humble ground 

from...

The Ones Sitting Pretty

Many poems are like butterflies to me.
Some are beautiful but elusive.
I can’t catch them!  I much prefer
the ones sitting pretty on
the leaves inside my book.
Fluttering delight,
translucent ones
can make me
catch my
breath!

To those who can not see what others do
smile...it's the best protection for any kind of day.
unlock those child like fillings we seem to let slip away.
compassion it's what so many in this world don't have.
know this is life, this is a gift not a...
