Best Modesty Poems

Modesty is no virtue
when it comes to love.

Love should be worn
brightly~ daily! Nightly!

Shouted loudly! – Boldly!

Let love's many voices 
Sound~ Rebounding heart-felt
joyful echos – 

Sing love's lovely delight!

Shake the earth with 
together vibration; let the
universe hear love's clear
clamor – let fly amorous
moon-beams – let stars'...

Modesty...
What exactly is it?
Is it covering yourself up like a nun?
No!
It is being confident
It is being strong
It is being SEXY!
It is showing the world
That you are beautiful
It is putting on your best dress
Standing in the mirror
Twirling around in circles
And saying "Damn I look good!"
But then...

I never came across the man
Who has more charms, more prominent charisma…

And every morning when I shave
Looks back at me with admiration…

He also modest to the fault
Extreme good looks would never hurt…

He also smart… I have to thank
All those mirrors in my bathroom!!!...

Character is not a question today,
Had it but now Pardon me for so,
Rationality have perished,
No it diminished in me may be, today

You pious, extra-terrestrial,
Leave or wear the shackles of false modesty, 
Beware they are expensive n delicate.
To suspect a head, for something brainy,
So unethical pardon...

Modesty where has it gone
Does it no longer exist
Are there no boundaries now
Is morality on the blacklist?

Everything on display 
For all the world to see
Oh ,how times have changed
In the world of modesty

Young girls in early teens
Dressed so scantily 
Unaware of the effect
Of the message...

Everyone is special with a certain claim to fame
And accordingly, everyone is nothing just the same

So when you step back and ponder who and what you are
Remember the practices you’ve done to get this far

And though, the thoughts bypass on how great you have become
Humble...

The mammoth task that my ambitions view,
Shall intercept with reason why I care
To change this woman from the god I knew
Becomes the pedestal, that none compare.

I see her shape and form delight the day,
My having known her finds I care this much
A complimentary distance can...

A floral parasol gave shade,
to features darkly fine and drawn.
No laugh lines marked her sweet facade,
a countenance both pale and wan.

She glided by the garden wall
and shed a tear, a wistful sigh;
the blossoms bent as if in awe,
the warblers chirped in sympathy.

I yearned to take...

When in having or showing a seemingly moderate,
most humble estimate of one's great merits,
and importance, free from ones vanity,
egotism, boastfulness, or grateful pretensions.

When free from ostentation or showing extravagance.
Can you a modest house,
white washed as new cotton picket fences.

When kind when in having,
or showing a...

Modesty is: not
owning even one mirror

Modesty antedates clothes and will be resumed when clothes are no more. (Mark Twain)

When Adam donned his fig leaf
Was a sense of decency assumed.
When sons of Adam
Again find it cute
To be comfortable
In their birthday suit
Will simple modesty be resumed.

R-emain down-to-earth, 
B-e free of heart's hate, anger, 
P-ride and mind's conceit.

When just a child the poet's mom said "Son
Throughout your life beware the sin of pride
Remember this when every day is done
What counts the most is who you are inside"

At first he thought his mother's words unfair
For recognition surely has its place
In time he witnessed...

Become a (wo)man of peace.
Help the world, be content.
It isn’t up to governments.

Celebrate your free heart
in grateful virtue and
with modest speech.

Soothe the ever angry,
invite them in and dare trust;
be proud equals not at odds.

With new friends welcome,
double joys by sharing,
save the planet by being happy....
