Premium Member RESPECT, KINDNESS AND CHOICE-POTD
Before you read my poem below please know:
This poem is generalised and not aimed at any individual
It is solely my observation and voice!

Why must it be analysed and dissected
To whether  a poet comments or not
We all do what we choose to do
We are a...

Premium Member A Diminished Respect
There was a time.

There was a time
When your fabled dreams
Seemed honest

A time when
Your open arms
Coated in dented silver and tainted dreams
Understood my Size 12 shoes

When the world seemed to be against you
Yet, still,
Your blunt eloquence welcomed me home

Then, your “rainbow”…
…shat

Respect Fellow Poets
Negative comments depict a lack of respect
PS Admin protects poets, and they object
By saying that's a no no
Don't be a cause of woe
Defiance shows a paucity of intellect

Others have offered this as a piece of advice
"If it's not your nature to write something nice, ...

Premium Member No Respect
There once was a man whose intellect
He did not at anytime neglect
His imagination dull
New ideas he would cull
From his colleagues received no respect  

Written: April 21, 2015


Albert Einstein quoted as saying, "The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but
imagination"....

Respect - a Two Way Street
Hey there fella,

Cuz i can't show my love
Well you still be creepin

For this big ol momma

Premium Member Friendship's All About Respect
Friendship's All About Respect
By Franklin Price
4/7/2015

Friendship's all about respect
A meet a greet cause and effect
I don't know you you don't know me
Yet there is a commonality

We like to talk the subjects wide
Views apart or side by side
It matters not how we connect
Must for each other...

Cosmic Respect
IT'S SAID A FEW HUNDRED MILLION YEARS AGO
I WAS LIVING IN THE SEA
I HAD NO LEGS TO WALK
I COULDN'T EVEN TALK
I WAS JUST A SEA ANEMONE

A SINGLE CELLED CRITTER IN THE PRIMAL STEW
DIDN'T SEEM TO BE GETTING ANYWHERE
BUT THEN SOMETHING HAPPENED
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT...

Have More Respect For Yourself
*READ ALL BEFORE COMMENTING*

Lord forgive me she says she is on that sophisticated wine and dine, 
she says her lips are sweet, hips full bliss enough to put your mind at ease. 
Damn girl where did you get those degrees. 
She feigns knowledge, pledges abstinence...

Premium Member HOW DOES LOVE DIE

If it is not watered with love passion, responsibility,
Humor, sensuality, fun, trust, respect and loyalty,
Petal by petal, and leaf by leaf it is bound to die,
Too late, too late to cry.

Treasure each other, as you would a vintage wine,
Chill out, enjoy a romantic restaurant and...

Mother of Nature
"The sounds of Earth is the music of my soul."Quote written by: Constance La France

*+*
Who is the mystic mother of nature
The one who paints the earth in such grandeur 
Working away hardly taking a break
Changing the seasons with finessing grace.

Spring sings pleasantly o'er...

Premium Member Muted Love
Not this day
No 
My mouth shall not say
The words that linger
Trailing broken syllables 
From memory bay
Without meaning
I cannot form them
Even as I pray
Turning in guttural acidic taste
By bitter bile way
Fumbling resentment 
Phrase to phase
With no sway from sentiment 
Shall I dare?
Shall I say?
Nay!
Struggle thought 
Drowning...

Premium Member Inked Impress
We are as we were before,
But you inspire me more.

Any real poet knows you're with us or against us,
Together we're one.
The world will wonder what's wrong,
When our work here is done.

We honor the new,
We honor the old.
We do as we say.
We say as we're told.

We...

Is There No Shame
Is There No Shame?

Watching as people go by is a joy I find
People, so many, of such different kind
Yet, over the years as time has past
Shame dissolves as morals die fast

Seduction has become a present fad
Casting away limits that we once had
Children dressed for lust...
