Best Pressing Poems

I have these buttons that people press,
That make me a little crazy.
It might be someone who leaves a mess,
Because they are too lazy.

Or it might be someone who makes a noise,
When I want to take a nap.
Or my brother who takes my toys,
And my favorite...

Yes, I’ve been struggling
But I never gave up
Just kept asking my Father
Teach me to drink from this cup

Many days, I’ve fallen
Many nights have passed me by 
When it is that I‘m calling
He wipes the tears of my cry

Father, forgive me
I’ve done it all over again
So...

I love taking in your delicious ideas
rolling red carpet on my tongue
your exquisite taste lingers in my mind
caramel kisses tracing the paths of my soul
pecking soft delicate notes on a tapestry of love
drawing lines linking spices
refining our rhythms uniting as one
......
dressed in red silk
I await...

On rocky ground I did fall

But up I got and still am pressing on

Tears did soak my pillow all day

But my heart be not weary

Oh I am pressing on

My eyes still on the prize

Though my feet hurt

I shall not rest

‘Cos am still holding onto the...

Dotting about land mines eyes half closed 
Asleep she seems while walking unto this edge....
Repulsion taking hold fey flags his juggernaut: jostling
King snakes slithering past these planetoids searching for her lizard queen ?
Demimonde's state of this union's address devil-may-care; and that he does dear dusty
Acheron...

My demons walk in step 
with my aching legs
knowing where my toes are soft
how heavy last night was
where I might choose to stand
when resolution isn’t mine
they beg me to stay, to be wrong
even when I’m resolved to move
they know my spirit’s name
and that he’ll flex...

As we look back at our years past
but look forward to what's to come
we see our need to walk in faith
walking on keeping our line truly plumb

So heed Paul's exhorting words
to leave behind all of our past
straining forward to win the prize
that goal of Christ...

I am no martyr, no ghost, nor wizard great
They laid rocks all upon me, and again I say
I will not plead, more weight, more weight

I was a farmer, in the spring of Salem late
My wife is to be hanged the following day
I am no martyr,...

She watched the mountain intently
Like a bird who’s nestling of dwelling, complains
Yet, neither will move --
Reality blooms;
A surge of genius
Strikes the hollowed core ~
Worrisome thoughts she shan’t abide…

A mother’s love still strives,
Strong willed fledgling must now -- fly
Search to build, its -- own nest
-- Mother...

I’m Pressing On For Jesus!

I want to press on for Jesus today!
May I be attentive!
  To what he has to say!

I want to seek the cross,
and it’s true meaning.
May HIS will in my life,
become more revealing!

I want more of Jesus’ love
 to daily surround...

Bowling night, I had to try
Asked her out and her reply
Yes she said, I’m on a roll
She agreed to watch me bowl!
Inspired I was and couldn’t wait
To do my best as I felt GREAT!
Oh what fun it was that night
My team won big as I...

On shaky ground I find I walk
I hobble and wobble but still I walk
There are shadows that lurk in the dark
I can feel their eyes and see their mark,
But still I walk, I know what I seek....

My son, my dear son, do not think it to be strange
when you find yourself going through a bad patch.
When things get hard, you must become harder still.
Look up to God, even when it seems He is not there,      ...
