Best Middle(A) Poems

Standing looking across sweeping thoughts and hopes 
alone crying into distant faraway hills and valleys  
dreaming I saw before me a big white puff of smoke 

Drifting low circling from out of chimneys pots high 
slowly moving creeps inner vision dancing with me 
candy...

My search is over, found my rainbows end
entrance has gold door with silver knocker 
I turn the diamond crusted door handle
met with prism of colour on entering
spectrum of colours certainly exceed
anything seen or imagined from Earth
flowing through middle a multicoloured 
marble stairway, on each tread...

If I were rIch I’d live just here, and 
enjoy the bliss of  “no bills to fear “
we’d toast our crumpets by the fire 
and watch the rooks play on the 
distant church spire: and ajacent…
I’d build a trust house for the poor 
and...

Stolen golden treasure chest
Dead man lying on his chest
Discarded like garbage
Because we act like we all savage
Eaten by vultures
As greed transcends cultures
Lying gypsies 
False omens like eclipses
Fake prophecies
They packed their bags for those ill fated odysseys 
Yardstick to success is how much property we hold
We...

I left the village and trudged towards the small wood,
Junipers, covered with berries that looked so good.
It was an inviting place many knew about
It was luck I found it, few cared I have no doubt.
In the middle, a pond cherished by lots of fish,
Around willow...

As the gentle winds flow
As the arrow left the bow
All is now understood
In my road I stood
While I'm waiting here
They are waiting there
Many things are give or take
Yet with my fate I refuse to play
I can see the end of the road
No happiness just a...

the day was harsh in reminding of
eternal imprisonment
(as the gates closed to my cage) …

 to tortured senses &
 a burning heart -

how i could end for Lack of Luck.

for once 
was done with modest keep (

in a cell-held putridness
were but assets of a pathetic...

In the middle, a calm steady breeze and we inhale the obvious freshness
In the sky, our sun hides its face and clouds swell and spy on canopies
The first round bulb of a drop of the rain and we bubble with joy
Then the sky rumbles and...

When it is quiet, and you are alone,
Which does your mind prefer… to
Search for “truths” that have been found? 
Or, to question…  and to
Find your own answers and truths? 

Do you build your labyrinth with the hope that maybe you’ll be lost, pleased to...

Staring at the face,the pool where Narcissus
Pined and made a star burst to tears
There I stand, where Echo`s sad but delicious
Plea for affection fell on deaf ears.

Treading through oblivious tracks
Lost in blue`s poisoned pinions
Burdens on my shoulders like sacks,
Rinds of red-rust peppered onions.

And where the...

In a muddle 
In a puddle 
In a world made of dismay
On a rock in the middle a dragon fly prayed

He was battered 
He was tattered 
He was in a terrible way
From the things in his heart he tried not to say

All the confusions
All the...

Lucy went window shopping 
Downtown at the antique shop
They had a  sale on lockets
So she went inside to browse
It did not take her long to choose
To spot a round silver locket
She notice it had a black trim
Then in the middle a cameo
Lucy chose this...

My life is full of surprises, I have been through many compromises. That is what
has made me a strong man, but not without Gods hand.  He has blessed me 
time and time again, I know he has forgiven my sins.  I was struggling...

Up or down
  forward or back 

Polarity ends
  in a panic attack 

Start, stop 
  the stillness portends

The middle a wasteland
  lost years of pretend 

Before or after
  in front or behind 

Timing entraps
  with the devil’s design 

Salvation,...
