Best Motivation Poems

Try to live
Try to feel pain with no tears
Try to remember years past and often lost
Try, oh try to know life need not be cold as frost

Ear not the words of those proclaiming silence
Listen to the rhythmic melody; give voice to a new start
The world...

Stop in your tracks

Take a deep breath
Stop and relax

Close your eyes
Exhale a slow deep breath

In your mind’s eye 
It’s early dawn
It’s quiet and serene around you

Look far out at the horizon
There over the peaceful rolling sea
See a fine line of light in the distance

The sun...

Remember free will too has been gifted,
with freedom allied to fate's fickle choice.
Tendered words uttered still..now uplifted, 
God provides each one a life and a voice.

Ere life ebbs and scrimshaw scrolled hands beckon, 
find strength in Medicine Hat horse's paint.
Flesh prized and spirit...

Blessings are the good works I’m talking ‘bout

Blessings to...

Forgive me for loving you, even though you never asked,
a secret kept like a pebble in my shoe, now smarting.
If heart dares to belong, it's just a weakness from my past.

Make scars worth the fight, put back the pin from grenade you grasped,
moment of truth...

hey ho
does an octopus know
how to juggle with eight cups and saucers
and the fish watching him
while the elephants swim
then he juggles with a turtle and tortoise

then ho hey
does the octopus say
I can do this all day round in circles
but an ache in my arm

It is important to keep an active mind,
Do everything possible to minimize fears
Leave resentments and regrets far behind,

Try not to dwell on all your pet peeves,
But seek out the positives in your life
Stand firmly for your cherished beliefs,
Avoid headaches from...

Sir Richard Branson - Rocket Man
There was a boy who had not fared well at school
Years gone by and no one could call him a fool
Now a business tycoon and philanthropist

The owner of the Virgin Group he became
An entrepreneur...

Life has changed so much for everyone
Many ways, different levels too
Fighting battles, waiting to be won

Holding on, trying not to feel so blue
Unexpected restrictions around
Many ways, different levels too

Looking for ground we once walked and found
But, none of us are in this alone
Unexpected restrictions around

We...

I'm just getting started to face this new adventure
To roll through the changes, release my fears to the wind
Also, to conquer something inside fighting my body
As it would like to be my enemy, so I must be a friend

I will gather all my strength to...

she leans back and points bare toes at clouds
chains creak their rhythmic squeak, hypnotic loud
taken aback, her hair sails slipstream flung
downstream freedom for a moment hung
in mid-air - earth's force gives up its grip
hands sweat, hold tight, they cannot slip...
underneath, grave ground drops and falls...

Out in the desert, late at night
The stars and moon are shining bright
The coyotes sing,
While crickets keep beat 
Cool night's joy, replaces heat
The owl sets out on nightly quest
"Who, whoo's my meal?" 
ever his jest
The man in the moon 
witnessed escapes
Wild dashes 
for thorn bush...

God is great,
     God is good;
     Let us thank Him for being here;
     And remember, just remember it's Him whom died for us;
     Remember, oh, remember He embodied Jesus...
