Best Refreshing Poems
A Refreshing New DayWinter is leaving a patchwork behind
Woven lumps of snow, for spring to un-wind
Melting into flowing streams, easy to follow
Right on down to the river bend's flow
A place for my soul's revival, under tall pines, soft soil
A nice place of rest from burdening toil
I can imagine...

Refreshing Spring ShowersAfter a soft spring shower last night, the air was washed clean
And saturated mother earth brings to life nature's bounty
Wisteria, Jasmine, and Azeala's scent wafts perfuming the cleansed air
Last night's accompanying thunder and lightning
Brought nitrogen that restores green to grass, plants, and trees
Now renewed...

Refreshing AdviceCurl up with a book's deep reflections
Turn off that electronic device
Stay away from artificial refreshments
And follow refreshing advice
Take a dip in a clearwater lake
a nap in the middle of the day
Go for a walk when you...

RefreshingSometimes the dry desert wind
Strips slowly the sandless skin
Of the soul
Gentle balm of the wide Spirit
Settling upon the surface
Singing a song of suppleness
Message of the mindful reflection
From the internal mirror
Of the heart
Home to the fruitful Spirit
Residence of the restoring, loving...

Refreshing RainRain dives down onto land
Grass oceans and even sand
Gently falls upon my hand
My reflection in the raindrop
Who is this I see
Tiny little drops of rain
Created high up in the sky
In the clouds is where it lies
Cleanses planet earth
Soon after its birth
Washes away evil and...

Refreshing RainRefreshing Rain
As the rain came calling
it made a hissing sound
You could hear it coming
as it raced across the ground
Everything else went silent
with nothing on the fly
I stood with arms wide open
my faced turned toward the sky
It swept so sweetly over me
a tingling, cleansing feel
I began...

Light Verse
Refreshing RainWhen you are unwell
And your body is weak
Worries hang over you
When it's solace that you seek
No matter how hard you look
For quietness and peace
Your jangled nerves
And aching limbs
Refuse to cease
Feeling very sorry for myself
As miserable as I can be
There is nobody, but nobody
Can feel as...

A Refreshing TasteFalling ashes
the cool, refreshing taste of black cherry
a hint of blood and the smell of burning flesh
the cancer chewing my cells....
my body aches
and my skin wrinkles....
yet...
it's still quite a refreshing taste....

RefreshingThey aim for simplicity
to purge memories
of political uncertainty
poison relationships
with no escape hatches
the characteristic relaxed
easy-going atmosphere
blurred pages unread
self-help books
chasing primary designs
brands to be mobbed
twenty-eight percent faster

Refreshing AppetiteHow refresh is my heart
in the presence of you and
how reviving is this love
we both feel. How truly
revitalising it feels when
we touch, the beauty of
your lips upon me and the
rush my body endures so
pure, my refreshing appetite.
The nature of seduction
from your body's...

Lyric
The RaindropLingering its wicked spell
The summer heat wave
Overstays its welcome
Bidding a long overdue adieu
When finally heaven sent
That first raindrop
Splatters on my face
