Best Non U Poems
Persona Non GrataI am nothing
pariah outcast a worm
I have nothing to offer, nothing of value
except these words
for when I see the sunlight reflect
in your chocolate brown eyes I envision
paradise
eden before the fall
and when you smile you
radiate

The Non-ResolverI’ve been watching my weight since 14,
but with all of the diets I’ve seen,
they’ve become a big no-no.
This here dieting yo-yo
has stopped trying to be super lean!
Other problems I’ll change as I go.
I don’t need a New Year to say so!
Said a wise sailor...

The Non-ProposalThis is the story of a clueless man
I had to give the “eye” to for a dance!
But once he noticed me, the tale began.
However, it was not a huge romance!
He had no car or money. Both of us
were students, broke and working. What a pair!
We...

Non-Toxic LoveNon-Toxic Love
Pecking order glances
Destroys friendship chances
Dissolves love, annuls romances.
Surviving smart as a fox…
Smooths that road of hard knocks…
So step out of the box.
Live above mental kicks.
Care, without verbal pricks,
Strengthen homes made of sticks.
Avoid hot gossiping lips
Prevent ill judger's grips.
Watch the evil one do flips.
Find peace...

Et Portae Inferi Non Valebit, Gates of Hell Shall Not PrevailEt Portæ Inferi Non Valebit
(And the gates of hell will not prevail)
Gates of Hell shall never ever prevail
promulgation of Truth forever stands.
Soul and Spirit each rings a sounding bell
Fate's ruthless results judges all the lands.
Vanities of all men foolishly praised
Spirit's dark desires bearing bitter fruit.
Rejection...

The Non Conformist's VersionSome of us ,perhaps are not cut out for this perfect world,
Life tells its story as the moments unfold.
Here we are sharing this Space, this Age,
Like odd misfits, sharing this societal charade.
The lonesome lover, whose love has died,

Non BelieverThe winter's been harsh, the winter's been long.
Still it's only march and I can't hear the song.
To have spring fever, you need to be a believer.
This winter's been harsh and this winter's been long.
Shovel's and sneezes are the call of the day.
Please hand me a...

The Non-MarathonToday the New York Marathon's
Become a non-event.
The runners' opportunities
To race both came and went.
At first the mayor said it's on,
Despite the storm's destruction;
And then, last minute, pulled the plug
And gave a new instruction.
The racers coming to New York
Most likely were confused;
And those who paid for...

Non Dual AwarenessHow many are realities? Is a question,
How many one actually wants? Is option?
Monism, like single-focus telescope, stands firm,
While dualism, like binoculars, less confirm...!
I who see the flower observe the bee as well,
That, like unidentified guest, within it dwell;
I focus on flower, yet,...

Non-FictionI know it's not a fiction
That's working in my life
I know this aint a prison
I'm free to leave tonight
I know this love is different
I can feel its depth and height
I know my God is merciful
To guide me in His light
It takes nothing short of Jesus
To...

Non-Sencei write these words, but what do they mean?
a few letters, the meanings can't be seen.
use your imagination and think of the word green.
what do you see? i saw a tree.
no close your eyes and think of the word smile.
what comes to mind? sometimes...

Solo Non-StopThe shuddering waves hasten the night
the fullness of the moon hides behind copious clouds,
soon a roar becomes overwhelming amidst the storm
as the lashing rain solidifies upon the creaking bow.
freezing salty air
the siren of the whale’s call
enhance his struggles
It was then, as if a giant hand...

Non Cherie Amour~Mon Cherie Amour~
Always in my heart you beat,
Like a drum in summer’s heat.
Cymbals I do lovingly hear,
Whenever our naked toes are near.
You, the ever-present, inspiration.
The driving force, behind my simple,
poetic creations.
I wonder oft, are my poems, dull or boring?
I shan’t apologize, as my...

Day To Day CuresWhen your world is topsy-turvy
Opt out -- if you must
But don't stop CHARITY
GIVE a few coins, slices of food,
To the beggars, real or fake
And the universe heals THE HEART
By degrees. College degrees fail
All too often as does "religion,"
Just be human, a mensch, once
A...
