Best Pastures Poems

Horses in battle with valor showed
 In ancient times when conflicts rose
 On mighty steeds warriors rode
 Swords at the ready to vanquish foes

 Modern battles by machines are run
 Which allowed the equines to have more fun
 Running wild running free
 Enjoying a new...

Fleeing into dark night, I run
A truth not wholly accepted
A promise breaking as I write
One story ends, one rejected

I question my decisions now
Fleeing into dark night, I run
Rejection sets me on my way
As to wishes I did have one

The broken mirror reflects all
A dream remaining...

Cows roamed sunlit green pastures hugging the river banks
Where villagers of meager means cultivated their tiny farms
Living happily amid bare necessities trusting destiny's hand.

That place, I left behind, taking the only dirt-road out of town
Long before brazen street-lights replaced kerosene lamps
And invading industrial hands pilfered...

From the pastures which he usually run lose
I behold and tied my mind.

My words echo back to me
Off barren walls
Through empty halls
Find no hearing ears this eve
Except my own
I'm quite alone.

Soon perhaps I'll leave this place
For greener fields
'Cross distant hills
And never happen back this way
Except in thought
For lessons taught.

I'll follow perchance this gale
That birthed my soul
And kept...

Summer green,harvest scene-
 the view changes every day
Summer blue,yellow too-
 the view changes every day
Summer again,refreshing rain-
 the view changes every day
Summer breeze,sculptured trees-
 the view changes every day
Summer still,in God's will-
 the view changes every day

Inspired by the view from the meeting room of...

Boundless pastures, velvety green,
Between the forests there;
Sheep and shepherds, gujjars and buffalos,
Present a heaven’s scene:
Scarcely seen—in fog.
Sad soul! How benevolent is life there
And how hard in real....

Green Pastures Gone Brown
David J Walker

The mood rises at the slight hint 
Of moisture on a far horizon 

Releasing
	Faint memories of a fabled rain

Memories of memories
Unable to describe

        the scent 
       ...

the zebra took off to his greener pastures


he's lion in grass
for his love to be tiger

If I were a single man, I would be longing for a mate;
If I were a married man, I would miss going out with a new date;
If I were a divorced man, I would not feel completely free;
If I were a widowed man, it would...

INFERNO

As I watched from far away,
Under the sun sending down  its rays,
Not willing to stare any longer,
And about to find my way out,
I noticed the earth trembling,
Followed by a cacophony,
Temperature rose in a flash,
Behold it was a volcano,
Red molten flowing down from its cone,
Arable...
