Best Reenter Poems

The young boy woke up floating, effortlessly above
his own little, living, breathing, body
that could be clearly seen below
with his own intangible eyes,
drifting… 
as if he were a concealed cloud or Zephyr wind
suspended within
the borders of his bedroom walls. 

A sky full of galaxies and stars
were...

I was touring the lovely countryside, once on a golden Saturday,
Lost within the raptures, of languid summertime's scenic display.

And I came into the vicinity, of a beautiful historic old home,
So being curious and interested, inside I occasioned to roam.

Excitedly I wandered about, exploring the grandeur...

The Heavy Price Paid To End The Deepest Of Dark Pains


In my night-dreams, flies jargon of oracles wise and profound
words given that break heavy chains by which I was once bound
just a conversation with my dark-muse and her ancient friends
as she promised, they provided a...

My Daughter's Smile
By Linda Hays-Gibbs 

There is a light, a light so sweet, comes from a smile beaming out from deep-within a soul, of infinite warmth, a burning coal alight with dawn, a tune to the rhythm of God's song. 
My lovely daughter with warmth...

I had a passion for vibrant flowers, and I was often found in the garden,
As one gains the haunting night bird songs, in burgundy skies darkening.

My garden had many varieties of flowers, in countless appealing colors,
Like a rainbow comprising so many shades, it does not...

I’m having a garage sale
Though I don’t have a garage.
Come check out all my offerings – 
You’ll see a strange montage.

I have similes and metaphors
So old that they’re clichés.
There are sentences and verses
Budding writers can rephrase.

From a stack of nouns quite towering
Are so many you...

Never left for dead, 
I rise again as Your Spirit speaks to mine.
A daughter yet made a son of our Living God.
Yet all are made brides as we are led down the aisle
For the wedding of eternal measure.
So I will rise and ride upon the...

Get Up

The further I run into love I lose more and more of me
Seeing the water run off the rocks and not understanding the rain
Knowing that life has not aided the thoughts that I think
Endless breath can you keep a secret of do I keep...

I've seen you move with fire
Your spirit all aglow
You sang and wrote poems all winter,
New life you did reenter.

Faith had found you
You were like morning dew.

The reservoir you jogged
The Hudson where you biked,
Those were your spot of healing
Your place of worship appealing.

faith had found you
You...

You are the brave.
That is something to be proud of. 
You enlisted with ideology of what has to come.
Your days are not by day.
You prepare for tomorrow.
No matter what branch you chose you climb to limb.
To set high above the enemy with the ally
To defeat...

What is your temperature?
The doctor asked
During an ordinary visit.
I left the examining room
And walked through 
My palace
Skin and hair
Nails and tissue,
75 years of growth.
Ivy wild 
as a Venus flytrap
Snaring an insect.
Tendrils curl and cover
Cages of ribs
Prisons of my own making,
Arid and Dry.

Soothing rain
Falls from mouth...

Belize was where her father chose to live.
She was his one offspring, and he, a businessman. 
His grocery store/saloon always bustling,
Attention getting womanizer, he pulled her early from school.
She was young, hardworking, and loved law and order - 
Belize was where she wedded and lived,...

To take the place of greatness you build and create
You give and you take but the outcome is great
To build up a castle it takes up the time
I have to relax
I have to unwind when I'm feeling this knot that shoots pain through my spine 
and...
