Best Olive Branch Poems
An Olive Branch
When you think of your last days here on earth
Will you have relationship regrets before you depart
Estranged and alienated from loved ones or friends
Will you leave this world with a heavy heart

Do you...

Olive Branch ExtendedJesus turned the other cheek
Now we extend the olive branch
During this special holiday season
Let us make peace
Open our hearts to those who have hurt us in the past
Can we live in Christ’s image?
Or will we decline to pass the peace pipe
Take this challenge
Tear down barriers...

An Olive BranchWhen did we stop
getting each other;
Did my grief
and your grief
Mix into
a thief
Who stole away
in the night
Taking everything
that was right
About you and me
The way we could
see and feel
My mind says
it was real.
Don't...

Olive BranchSpecious logic, serpentine manoeuvres, designed to disorient heart and mind, with a view to securing a psychological advantage are seen through by centred presence, which yet humorously indulges the play underway awhile, that the adversary’s eventual sense of triumph be not mitigated by discordant rejoinders...

Olive BranchAnti-howling receives the
deserter. There was a mass
breast-beating without
any noise.
The pugnacious jaw
drops. Shows a frail
sensitivity to tormented
values –
of invisible mirrors, shutting
down the wolf’s face. An
ancient spider jumps
on your bronzed ego.
A transsexual walks on
the ramp to defend her territory.
Cucumbers would jump to
conceive the obnoxious...

Olive BranchOpen a door but go slow,
listen I’ve been through enough;
Inviting yourself when you screwed up;
Victim of your inability to see
everything you did from the beginning;
Branches must be extended gently;
Revolving doors go nowhere fast

An Olive BranchYour mischievous gaze
your dark brown eyes, not as shiny as they should be
tell a very sad tale
straight from your heart
I offered you an
Olive branch...
Being with your broken
soul, whilst trying
to repair my own
was just hurting us more...

I Am Your ConstitutionDay-223 “I Am Your Constitution”
In the wee hours of the night
There came a pounding on my door
Up from my bed I rose
Who’s that pounding on my door?
Why are you pounding on my door?
Wake up! Wake up!
It’s raining hard outside
And I, not a...
