Best Reinforce Poems

I have never seen a flower blush when I took it's hue
and held it there a prisoner captive to my view.

I have always heard the song that's in the autumn breeze
playing taps in harmony with the forest leaves.

I love the smell of rain that brings...

He just appeared to me, like wispily curling 
Chimney smoke, 
One grim and early morning in the very midst of 
Decembers briefest days, on the highest slope,
Toiling through my daily round; where, slowly 
Driving up past the Whitethorn hedgerows to 
Ascend the snowy Heys, I...

That other world
is out there, beyond the quiet
I keep bubbled around me,
the noise growing louder along
the flag strewn streets,
banging drums marshaling
the inflamed minds of the masses.
Something has gone wrong.
I no longer feel I belong.

I keep my door closed
and curtains drawn to shut out
the anger from...

On my way to church 
the spirit of Christmas I met the other night.
All excited it was as the day of Jesus's birth
was coming.

In awe, I approached it and hesitantly
I asked:

" Could you, sacred spirit, tell me what the real
meaning of Christmas is? "

The spirit...

The devil went down to Washington to see what he would see
Ah yes he said everything looks real good to me
Everything is sliding down as I have planned it
That phrase “under God”: they have all but banned it.
 
This is sweeter than in the days...

On this last railroad journey, all’s ablaze
new stars pulse over veins of feathered trees,
and melt in their faint blinks of night's decrees
they flicker through me white solace and haze. 

Quite often, I have scanned the moonlight’s trail
as winds can pierce into my heart and know
my...

Dear fellow poets – the young and the young once,

Modern poetry to me is “today’s poetry.” It presents poetry from the hearts of current writers using their own unique styles, which are influenced and inspired by other poets – both of yesteryears and now; that...

Neon billboards scream a symphony of 
images
in attempts to sell
happiness
by bleeding dissatisfaction into her mind.

Glossy, crisp pages remind her that she isn't 
good enough
to be accepted by a 
society
that values celebrity over individuality. 

Reflections in the mirror only
reinforce
her perceived
inadequacies
as mascara stains her fair cheeks. 

The...

She was Rachel, beautiful as her name and in all ways.
In innocence, caught up in “grown up, worldly things
Folks who knew her laughed it off took is as if a joke
At a loss to grasp the deeper meaning behind it all
Her parents were alarmed and...

A poet’s deliberation; to place the words between the lines
Something sacrilegious; in their attempt to blow our minds

Playing games with metaphors to test the educated rhyme
Then left accessible to others over the great length of time

Parable’s placed upon us with their morals to quell our...

Warn path through time
Covered with nettles and thyme
Sprinkled with relics sublime
Sated with memories from my prime
Bridges crossed, harbored mined
Valleys forged, mountains climbed
Rivers forded, hollows divined
Peaceful pastures forever pined
Showered blessings o'er charted course
Thunderous trials skirted with every resource
Shining beacons along the road did hope reinforce
Clouded dreams...

My unquenchable thirst for returning to my homeland
Reuniting with the sacrosanct sole soul of my source
The thought of the joy of being with the angelic band
Sooth each nerve of my feet and reinforce their cautious course.

My wars, from the time of my entry into this...

When a man loves a woman..

He listens to how she’s feeling more than what she’s saying,
He will put her needs and desires before his own,
He will let her into his heart, and work to get into hers,
He will reinforce her as a woman, build her...

An Elderly.

Introduction tells you,
Who shall you believe?  
Listen sometimes to your senses
your sadness or your joy.
If you are downhearted you cannot 
perceive any happiness or joy you will
 feel stepped on. 

Temptation tells you,
Who shall you believe? Even if you open 
up a pathway,...

 Poetic writes speak volumes too,
 this profound nature of humanity;
 expression’s glyph or determination’s rift,
 each soothing rhyme or base profanity;
 provoke of consciousness that drift,
 so casually or with rude insanity;
 furiously incite or simultaneously delight,
 set straight a thought or induce...
