Best Meetings Poems

I shall go to those places
Made holy by people,
People in common, divine from a place,
Back to community.
Back to commemorate
God in a face.

Then when I see
Why we worshipped together,
I shall go seeking assemblies of trees.
I shall go free then
Where freshets are murmuring
God in the leas....

Meetings, the Practical Alternative to Work

By Elton Camp

Do you want others responsibility to share
Then workers into a meeting you ensnare

What might have brought you derision
Then becomes a business group decision

Stand at the front as the meeting you start
Point with a stick as you show a...

Here shareholders and directors clash
Each eager to excoriate rival's flesh
They do not allow resolution to psas
And things come to a horrible impasse
Unionists hurl puzzling queries
On vexing issues each member varies
'Oust that director finance' someone shouts
At hat's throw, the house, protocol flouts
Some pedants and professors seize...

I am intolerant of people who make a meeting last two extra hours.
Asking inane questions that pertain to only them.
And of the leaders of the meeting who allow them to take over.
Commandeering the rest of us.
Some think I am rude when I leave at the...

I spied an old man along the way

With a tattered cloak

He called to me

Where are you today?

 

I looked upon him

and smiled

I am with Moondust

Of soft glowings

Of days that grow dim

Of fires that glow

and of journeys to know

 

He offered  to me

Something precious to...

Meetings part one....A moon is neither a plant nor a weapon so never sit in a washing basket at ninety eight degrees. And a tick tocking plant is available for hop scotch games. Timed over frontiers and available to view in a slip stream. Hang...

Blazing love divine ceaselessly prevails
passionately quenching hate's wrathful heat
since the Saviour’s ardent care never fails
wafting serenely triumph-scent so sweet.

Assuring warm presence seals God’s embrace
His glowing fellowship exudes sweet bliss
kindling embers of fervent worship grace
midst spiritual greetings of Brod and Sis.

Sublime compassion does ignite our soul

My Esteemed Comrades,
Fellow devotees of the Sacred Process -
It feels as though I've never left,
             As though we've always been here

Meetings, Bloody Meetings

Meetings, bloody meetings,
All talk yet nothing gets said,
Meetings, pointless meetings,
Power suits gone to their head.

Strategies, Blue Sky thinking,
Flip charts and a cup of tea.
How does any work get done?
There in meetings from 9 till 3.

Minutes, bloody, minutes,
Do we agree the points were read?
Minutes,...

Moments before the meetings
always so full of significance,
 aeon after mismatches
filled with bitter memoirs......

Meetings are made
For people to gather information to persuade
As you sit on a chair and listen
Sometimes it may be just waiting for intermission 

And you wonder if it’s true
What you are hearing from the speaker too
So do you sit and hope for too
Death by PowerPoint...

I sit behind the computer
scripting the daily lesson plan, 
while hoping there’s no intruder,
of them I’m not an eager fan.

A guest speaker comes to impart
something in boring monotone.
I hope he imparts something smart
or I’ll be reading on my phone.

A meeting scheduled noon today
is for, I’m...
