Best Nearing Poems
Nearing the Finish LineAs the might-have-beens get smaller
And the what-the-hecks get taller
Life gets sweeter.
What a beater,
Death looms, but ya wanna stall'er...

Nearing the EndWhen I’m reading a novel
And nearing the end,
(Especially one that
I would recommend),
I want to speed up
So I finally know
Where the author was leading
Through ebb and through flow.
On the other hand, I’d like
To slow it all down,
‘Cause when I reach the end,
I’ll be wearing a frown
Since...

Nearing HomeNEARING HOME
On this final day of two thousand eleven
What thoughts are on your mind
Are there any thoughts of heaven
And the joy you will find
Another year has come and gone
What difference did it make
It means that you are nearing home
What pathway did you take
Did you take...

I'M Nearing a StoreI'm nearing a store.
Has it something for me?
No; I'm nearing the next.
Hoping there's something to see.
I'm nearing a store.
For something that's new.
Fearing the worst.
Hoping for few.
I'm nearing a store
for something I need.
Only to eat.
Hoping to feed.
I'm nearing a store.
Have I been here before?
Bored again and...

Nearing the End TimesCOVID-19?
What have you not heard about it?
It’s all over the place
In my face
In your face
In our faces
Only to instill fear
The fear of losing
The fear of dying
Panicking
Rushing
Fidgeting
Pacing
Unsettling
But, we have to be still
And everything became still
It seemed the air became fresher
It seemed the land was not stressed
It...

Nearing the EndNearing the end,
and I'm all butterflies inside,
all the sensations that i send,
those feelings that inside i hide.
i have now reached a point,
where I'm okay to return,
unlike the yesterdays,
when I wanted to turn back time.
this person that i have become,
through this journey that's evolved me,
all the...

Nearing My End - I Thought Your Grass Was GreenGive me an excuse or a reason
To overcome these waves of emotions
Friends come and go like season to season
Dealing with vile clashing commotions
I thought your grass was green…I’m hopeless…
I thought the grass on the other side was greener than ours…
I thought your grass was green…I’m...

Nearing YouI feel so lost in this dream
You're were everything to me

Come closer I'll come undone
I hear your voice but it's fading
Words are lost for all this blaming
I love you, I do for now let go
Hard for you, hard...

So then we had another hearing

Not one for Methuselah-old malice;
You ought to have dumped it at church entrance
To sought redemption give the fullest chance;
Holy Communion with spiritual police
Watches the terribly upset Alice,
Who is right now doing an asked Lord’s Dance
With a rock of a...
