Best Riverside Poems
Sitting By the RiversideI walk down a trail off the beaten path
Contemplating life’s equations, trying to solve its math
I sit down by the riverside, the breeze blowing through my hair
I find rest on a slab of stone, using it as a chair
I sit alone in the woods and...

RiversideRiverside, the house
had long windows,
the sort you step outside
My reflection from the outside,
and if I really stared
I could see into the rooms.
Chairs mainly,
with old Alzheimer people
waiting to die
Occasionally they would see me staring,
and would wave gregariously
from another age

I was wonder how anglers do sleep on sandy at the riverside
One time in my life, I try when I was ten year as trying it
At my best though it is was not easily
I slept while my hands are on my ears
I fear sand entering...

Limerick
Walk Along the RiversideAs we walk along the riverside
A sound of the innocences of melody
The waters that sing to the naked ear
The colour of finest crystal sparkles to the eye
Stepping stones like a puzzle to cross the waters path
Its beauty reflected against the surrounding sky
Nature's...

By the RiversideBY THE RIVERSIDE
As I sat by the riverside,
Calm and running wild
Deep inside of me, waves clash
Sabre-rattling for supremacy
As I sat by the riverside,
Blurred images, fleeting past
Renaissance, reminiscence
Pruning past histories
As I sat by the riverside,
A macabre dance of swords
Flash of imagery...

The Riverside SolitudeAs I sat on the plank
All alone at the riverbank
I listened to the birds chirp
Flapping their wings as they fly
Like armies, they formed lines in the sky
As I enjoyed my solitude
With my feet in the flowing water
I couldn’t help but wonder
If the trees loved the...

A Dry RiversideCherished by many desperate with no joy
Within the heartbeat of exclamatory rough homeboy
Finds peace too merry and blue sky solitary
Walking on all four and not seen as he tarry
Clothes wet with sweat and thwacked toes overlaid
Feels beaten, tired, sleepy, baked and guilty afraid
None by to...

Nature and Me On the RiversideWhen I appear there Nature seems to
Dance and dance and dance,
When I disappear she is prone to
Weep and weep and weep.
Withdraws all clouds from sky to set a
Splendid scenery,
So that me rising from the river
Afresh may there espy....

Dawn Arrives At Riverside ParkIndependence Day has come and gone....
All magic has been trucked away to come again another day
Sweltering, yet, in the dewy lawn,
is the fragrance of burnt offerings....
hovering low like a old gray ghost,
vast over the Riverside Park

Riverside - Marc Chagall somewhere a thought is projected
dappling on all present
did it start inside my skull? I don't ask
but it bounces into a counter argument
tussles start
all completely invisible to the naked eye
are invisible things real? of course
get some music in to heighten the moment
no one...

Lucie's Dreaming Part One 'Picturesque Riverside Setting'Coke and weed
Hold nothing on me
She spoke the dream
I chose to believe
We ride behind the unseen
Stride valleys of green
With shadows that sheen
And caveats that sparkle
Even further a field
What may you yield
These layers unpeeled
Where the white rabbit burrowed, will you now follow?
To the...

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...
