Best Meandering Poems
MeanderingOne spring day meandering in a meadow,
I saw a butterfly whose beauty matched that
of May's azure sky.
With blue silken wings like that of a fairy,
she flitted here and there -
aimlessly as butterflies seem wont to do.
Oh, to be that butterfly,
alighting on any pretty flower whose...

MeanderingMeandering
a speechless glee
allowing the dust of purpose
a cleansing breath
shedding the garment of time
playing hide and seek
with your shadow
no past – no future
only lazy footsteps
guiding you
in a wanderer’s waltz

Meandering Rivers, Streams and BurnsMeandering rivers, streams and burns
Zig zagging, flowing in contour turns
Sparkling waters as pure as can be
Flow through the glens and down to the seas
Much life is found in these translucent waters
Species of fish, and delightful otters
Along these rivers, streams and burns
Grow many grasses, trees...

A Meandering Cocophony of Thought That Evades FateA Meandering Cocophony of Thought that Evades Fate
Contractual obligations toward your future self
Non-Factual invocations that deprive you of your health
Actual comparisons between poverty and wealth
Emmanuel on the eve of a heavenly operation of stealth
Bellowing antiquities of integrated life forms moving
Fellow things that...

Meandering Through SpaceDrifting in the vacuum, I see a sun rising
Pulled inexorably towards the event horizon
Infinity condenses into a single quark
Lighting the universe bathed in the dark
I see the charm of its strange, beautiful truth
Came up from the bottom; like a galactic baby tooth
The super symmetry of...

Meandering StreamAh, to spend a languid summer afternoon on the bank of a rippling stream,
Lying on my back watching vagabond clouds as I reminisce and dream!
I hear the soothing sound of the water's hymn as it plays its merry tune,
Blending its musical melody with that of...

MeanderingMeandering stream of dreams,
That flows beside the old willow~
Where laughters of my childhood echo
Upon the river rocks of blue and yellow.
I throw a stone upon her bosom~
To see at least a tiny ripple,
Instead I see lilies blossom,
In the meandering stream of dreams.

Meandering RiverMeandering river,
Just passing us by,
Looking so blue,
While reflecting the sky.
Gently the flowing,
The trickle sounds small,
Louder the crashing,
Of the waterfall.
The sun on it glistens,
As it weans it’s way,
Creating the background,
For this sunny day.
Stones to be skimmed,
Many times will it bounce?
Just for fun really,
No...

Pushkin Sonnet - the Meandering BrookThe Meandering Brook
*******************
the brook meanders across the moorland,
dividing heather and bracken with banks
adorned with wetland flora, looking grand.
sandy patches, fauna can fill their tanks.
birds of many feathers' quench their thirst, bathe.
water shrew, get lucky, a chance to gaze.
a dipper where the bank widens; washed rock.

MiseryMelancholy men meandering many muddy miles. Marred minds, muffled moans, marked madness. Minimized merciful miracles; morphs mans’ magnified misery.
