Best Metaphorically Poems

No matter how long you look to the sky
Rain wouldn't fall if there are no clouds;
So engage the sun, warm up your oceans
And uplift humid air as high as you can--
And keep repeating till misty clouds form.

Stars don't appear till the advent of dark,
So take...

I

I Slip-
into   a dreamy dream-
and I am falling
into a greenforest

lost   in a    sea of trees

they are sobeautiful
the drums of time cease
clouds sail in the
sky

oh my life is weather-stained-sad

I imagine
myself a tree   g r a c e...

This poem is dedicated to a special far away friend - Brandden Blackwell.  We became so close before we actually met.  So close, yet so far away - never around, yet always there - It's kind of like describing a metaphoric friend. Thanks,...

His hair is like a black dwarf with white freckles,
with eyes like sharp, jiggered icicles,
a nose like a white man in a lineup of Africans,
and a mouth like shredded onions should you choose to cross him.

His chest is like a cow’s udder ready to feed...

This is the story of who I am
I give all I can and then some.
I, a bee, will sting if you wrong
If nice, an help mate I will be.

Many are the roads to one’s heart
The main road, truthfulness, is a very good start."
You will get...

My source of gain for each day
is so soothing and warm of heart
this holds me up no matter what
fully satisfying in no small part

This bottle has ca spiritual dimension
effecting my soul so very much
keeping it filled to the brim
trusting for that divine touch

There's a constant...

She said she likes 
the way my metaphor 
swings back and forth. 
Crossing through time, 
and reinvigorating the mind. 

Touching produces 
a collaborative effect 
causing her to wonder 
what's next?

Bodies tingle to the point 
where she invites 
our souls to mingle. 
Ending in punctuated 
satisfaction...

Imagine if for once I could smile at my storm
Or that by some chance I could be accepted by the norm
What if I really did find the pot at the end of the rainbow
What if all my hurts and pains I could finally just let...

Think metaphorically, 
Everyday, said my mentor.
When a word becomes
a sentence,
It could be a good story.

A story is created
By imagination,
But fantasy is not.
Perhaps hallucination,
Driving directions,
To create something.

Peter Pan Syndrome the most
accurate way to summarize
psychological mindset of yours truly,
particularly as a boy with brown eyes,
who did NOT holistically acclimatize

himself with peers, which insecurity
latched deadbolt draw
bridge guaranteeing Harris
parasite to cannibalize
(figuratively), sans rip

pull sieve flesh eating das guise
nanobot, while clinging with dear life
to mother's...

To put a proper name on what you're feeling
Tear away your defenses like a banana peeling.
You sigh with indifference and vow to be patient
For a miracle to happen via some for agent.
The nature of which is not one to be found
As you heap your emotions...

I missed the rain
but the metaphorical hit
between the eyes
left me reeling
as I read the water smudged
calling card
of the wasting disease....

Dive under any 
skirt that floats 
your way, Amish 
or otherwise,
metaphorically speaking.
Be an explorer.

Sail every sea until
you find the eddy 
you want to swirl in
the rest of your life.
Then stake your claim. 
Make it your own.

A silent movie 
Maybe silent realistically
Or not silent metaphorically
Silent
Because not verbal
Not silent 
Because with movements
Not silent
Because appealing
Silent 
Because there are no immediate actions
And without man's sympathy
Response and cooperation
A silent story 
May eventually die silently...
