Best Reprove Poems

They say if you don’t use a thing for a year
It’s time to get rid of it, just to be clear
Feel free to sell it or give it away
But to get clutter free, just don’t let it stay

So, I checked my garage for stuff I...

Retarded limbs in dark surrounds,
Embattled heart ‘n muffled sounds;
Dying hope of life abounds
I am winded to the gut.

Slowly sinking through the clay,
Sly emotions slip and sway,
Tomorrow is another day
and I am winded to the gut.

Pain takes charge of limb and head,
Feeling like I need a...

One

Has more to gain from those who kindly reprove his wrongdoings


Than from


Those who constantly applaud his every thought, word, and deed!

Froth and foam, time and tide...
Ah, the motion of the ocean.
‘Tis the source of my heart's longing,
The place of my soul's belonging, 
With it's push and pull...
Ebb and flow.

As time and space go rambling on...
At your shores, the same time and space
Stand halted...
Your maker and...

 dramatic verse 

LORD, your mission I long to fulfill.  
I know at times I hinder Your grace.     
BELIEVE, You plead. -- I believe until
HELP is put on hold and doubts displace
THOU, God, the one Master of my will
MY deepest...

Dawn, you fall upon striking radiance,
Birds lift the sky using wings patience,
Barren and wizened tree, I trust your vitality,
A sympathy that teams will ignite beauty.

In a palm tree, I sense the vicinity of God,
Insight into the immersion of her slid plod,
Unbounded in the knot of...

A band of truth
A circle of love
An ownership claim
An advertisement to the world

With this ring I own you
I promise to cherish you
I pledge to take care of you
I hope what I say is true

With this band
I tie you down
I claim you till death
I might even...

I speak not, I trace not, I breathe not thy name;
There is grief in the sound, there is guilt in the fame;
But the tear that now burns on my cheek may impart
The deep thoughts that dwell in that silence of heart.
Too brief for our passion,...

Kiss the sun, fly with the wind, 
to live is a fire raging within.
Be not some featherless bird
or to a fallen angel akin.
For all creation stands in awe
of a lovers gaze
when the onlookers around them 
deftly
         fade

Her life became a wilderness
For not being a symbol of barrenness
Therefore, she walked through vast wilderness
That echoed lifeless barrenness

Mortal tongue that once did approve
‘Build my family’ now did disapprove
Abraham although displeased couldn’t reprove
What Sarah his mistress already did approve

“Water! I want water!” Cried Hagar’s son
Truly...

Juvenilia: Early Poems V

Poetry
by Michael R. Burch

Poetry, I found you
where at last they chained and bound you;
with devices all around you
to torture and confound you,
I found you—shivering, bare.

They had shorn your raven hair
and taken both your eyes
which, once cerulean as Gogh's skies,
had leapt at dawn...

Staid by sweet suggestion
and guileless of mounting truth,
this fellow suffering ~ remorse
is played upon ~ uncouth!

The goading fills my pastime
no more the anvil's muse,
but lawless, hastened by-line
indoctrinating lose!

My stand is only wait ~ Thine
Oh cherished friend removed,
what keeps thy prison recline,
what keeps my prayer from...

please don't turn my days
into endless sun shine and green 
fields reaching as far as the eyes can see.
Most of the time you 
don't mean it.
Just trying to look poetic before 
a group of the worst dictators of 
any poetic form.
I know the sky is...

 Heart fire is fueled by truth not lie,
 thus gifts all minds serene;
 permutes a consciousness confused,
 result a soul of facet sheen;
 perverse lapse, irresolute trait,
 venal view rebuked by mien;
 synteresis returned foremost,
 no room for grayish id between.
