Best Reassert Poems


Premium Member Lighthouse
Mute
but immutable.
Unmoving, unmoveable;
timeless, yet tireless.
Solitary stalwart sentinel
surveils undulating horizon.

Aberrant, achromatic clouds
pock-mark the skies, as distant
rumblings herald his adversary's
latest gambit in their age-old conflict.

The wrath of a thousand crashing,
clashing, thrashing fists batter
against the beleaguered sentry.
Ceaselessly, remorselessly,
the maelstrom assails him.

But the foundations are firm and
noble gatekeeper stands...

The Charity Jump
Insanity enters my distorted simple mind
To raise funds for charity for some unknown,
Impulsive, heroic, death defying, maligned 
Save children or animals or even Sierra Leone 

mind can do anything, though body unwilling 
Something not to taxing, not energetic 
Ruled out running, climbing, and no swimming...

Premium Member A Historic Event
The Wall


A near three thousand names called out that day;
   now fifteen years, they've solemnized the date
so labeled Nine-Eleven, to now stay
   within our memories as tragic fate.

But listening to names cannot compare
   to heartache stirred by this museum...

Premium Member What Lurks Within
Help with the struggles, man's faced with, in life on earth
As man learns life knowledge, instead of grasping worth

A passion to hold all that's seen, since his moment of birth
Is innate desire or thoughts, meant for direction not for girth

I find it ironic when man...

Bad Romantic Deception
there once was a boy I thought I loved
in my mind i kept him above

all my thoughts he was there
but his love I did not share

I couldn't tell him how I felt
with the pain he could not have dealt

my mother predicted my downfall 
and yet...

Premium Member The Raven
I have a secret it's buried deep
Almost afraid to fall asleep
My shape will shift when unaware
It really is a frightful scare.

This morning found black feather on bed
Midnight is trigger I truly dread
No idea where I flew last night
Except was home with morning light.

Exhausted, confused what...

Premium Member Where It's Safe For Them
There is a place where children stay
in a virtual Neverland,
where it's safe for them to play.

Happiness at their command
and broccoli that tastes like cheese
in a virtual Neverland.

Clouds that you can grab and squeeze
that taste just like marshmallows
and broccoli that tastes like cheese.

Lots of laughing funny...

Premium Member So Good
You're such a good and loving God to take such care of me.
Though I don't deserve it, still Your love is free.

You came into a barbarous world steeped in sin's corruption;
A world so vile it seemed to be bent on self destruction.

You laid aside Your...

Hope

It begins
from depths within
unmeasurable plunging phantoms down
festerin' the grounds

Lingerin' up sounds

sin

Astir the Astros 
call on the cosmos play-sures
endeavors

Psyche
assimilators consciousness
dabbles 

Wake the dreamers
the unreal

A Sandy Survivor

Prayed to Lord I love again today,
What to everyone should I start to say?
So they won't worry when I reassert
I will have God remove all their hurt.

You are my Savior who I believe in;
Forever my friend have always been
By myself am certain cannot...

Let us clear the fog and be honest
I had ideas in which you did invest
Fun we had in the times we shared
Together we built castles and dared
In rolled the smog and spoiled our fun
Now it is all hazy as in the winter sun
Gone is the...

Time Heals
Time heals so they say
It’s perspective it adds along the way

Reflections of thoughts, emotions
One of life’s may promotions

Loosing the fire of hurt 
Time has the gift to reassert 

Many thoughts getting clear
Mind and emotions disappear 

Time is our friend whispering in the ear
Listen to time...
