Best Old World Poems

As strangers to this virgin land
succumbed to the impossible
we are numbed by grief for what is gone
Astonished by the solitude...

We gaze, without a breath, nor voice
upon the blue veined world once loved
A home we've left behind!

It seems so weightless to the eye
And out of the...

Each new day my treasured thoughts you lay claim
As minutes stretch and I search for patience
Restlessness arrives and your love I blame
As it calls to my heart with reverence
Nothing collides with the world but you
As time becomes much harder to replace
This love shared without hesitation...

Well how do you do, my name is Jack
Brain's still working but it's got a big crack
It's a World War II injury
Watching the war on TV
Munching on chips put my back outta whack

Well how do you do, my name is Jack
Brain's still working but it's developed a crack
It's a World War II injury
While watching it on TV
Munching on chips put my back outta whack...

You don’t know the old world,
But you would have liked it.
In that world, when I was young,
Like you, hungry to eat the roots
Full of fuel, I dreamed I could fly.
Flap my arms and fly, freely
I was a helium balloon,
Rising up into the blue sky.

When I...

Do you miss how the times used to be
missing cost of an old classic melody.
Cost of being careful and young in your heart
missing something long gone and forgotten
something wind could explain
or the birds on the trees or the rain on the leaves.

Do you miss how...

It's a wrong way to tip a fairy, it's a wrong way I know
Rather receive moolah than a tip on “how to shovel snow”
Now that's downright silly
Must have picked a dilly
A good alternative would be “how to blow your nose”...

A Slow Death or the Silence of the Old World
In the twilight of a bygone era,
Where echoes of past times still whisper,
Ancient trees murmur the secrets of celestial winds,
And silence, a heavy shroud, envelops the remnants of a forgotten realm.
Time here flows like a languid...

Are we even human?
And are we really real
Cause we’ve been cursed so many times
That we forget how it feels like to feel
We strive,
Fight,
And try to get rich,
And as the day goes by,
We just grow old,
Cold,
And hard hearted.
Forgetting life’s for the living,
Cause we never live it.
Action...

Along the fine black print
Has left me wondering why
They've been making it so hard
For a poor old man to die

I know what I done
Even God would shun
From the tales I've told
Of the bodies turned cold

The world has turned
Yet the butter still churns
Along...

Please put the uneasiness and regret aside
Gently walk into the night
Let all the light illuminated to be written in moonlight
 
Even the beauty is still tangled, and the filthy is still around
Since the day has faded away, then let's put all them aside
Gently walk into...

The digital world comes
And an old man seems to become
A social outcast
Using a telephone instead of a handphone
Using a typewriter instead of a computer
Writing a letter instead of an email
Reading newspaper instead of electronics news
Having posting service instead of express delivery
Using a cash purchase instead...
