Best Ounce Poems

EVERY OUNCE A MAN

Well, never climbed a mountain
but you can count on me to catch you
when you fall, after all, drank from the fountain,
so, thanks to you I am
every ounce a man.

Made love at midnight, fell in love by two,
in the middle of that sickness

fragrance of yesteryears distilled from heartache and joy

mixture of entropy and cohesion scented in hopeful aroma

	sweat from wanderlust of adventure

	tears from emotional advancement

	blood of hard work’s injuries over time

	fears contained and turned into vigour 

	petals ground into an effusion of love

a medley of rose-tinted lenses...

Ounce Of Hate
Miracle Man
11/3/2024

One Ounce Of Water

One ounce of clean water
Lost in an endless ocean
The last of a million million gallons
Where are the fish who swam there?

Salvation by the Ounce
David J Walker 

Gold must be the stuff
Of which  the Cup of Christ 
is made of

Its value supererogatory  
Its bearings veiled
It's content cryptic and obscure

Unknown to hunger 
The clean men
In white shirts 
are the anointed guides 
Meditating and navigating
By starlight

While...

a letter gone unanswered
  a phone call unreturned

Cinnamon dreams aren’t spun with sugar;
Far too spicy for an ounce of sweet,
they are swirled with a magical purr;

Hearing buttery speech you’ll infer 
it’s much more than a sumptuous treat;

The lady robot doesn’t take
Her birth controlling pill,
She knows it could be one mistake…
Untested drugs can kill.

She doesn’t want a deformed child,
With gears and wheels all out of place,
Or with three metal mouths that smiled
Upon its baby face....

A glint of light
Slicing through every
Ounce of forest
What delicate
Hands of God
Light still
Pouring through
This bastion...

An ounce,

Of compassion in practice,

Rates more than a ton of love

In theory, in God's eyes!

  I've used up every last ounce  
    of energy I've got... 

  Comes a gentle knock on my ego
    'No, you have not'...

What I'd Like To Give Is An Ounce Of My Perfume
By R. Henderson 

What I'd like to give you, is an ounce of my perfume..
Or so to speak..
An aroma like many others is what I shall bequeath.
The air stirs as it consumes all the space...
