Best Rose Colored Poems

He sees the rose in her cheeks
She sees the wrinkles of time in her mirror

He sees the long, flowing brunette of her shining hair
She sees wisps of grey, dull hair that she can't manage

He sees shine and twinkle in her blue eyes
She sees her reflection...

it's raining again,
been this way for days;
swirls of graying clouds
hiding the blue of skies
and my eyes

my lips 
seem wetter
than everything else
that rises
without sun,

the river's rising again,
perhaps higher than my own ego
as i lose myself
in the pockets of current.

current, and past events
build this dam 
against what...

It’s easy to remember the good times
Never thinking about the pain
Rose colored memories of sunshine
We forgot about the rain
Times were so much harder then
Sometimes not a penny to our name
Fighting just to make ends meet
But I’d go back there just the same
It seems we were...

almost not wanting to leave

I gaze up towards the sky watching all the birds’ flyby
  Whoosh,...

I see you through rose colored glasses 
And that's why I give you so many passes 
I don't see any of your imperfections or flaws 
The person I see puts me in such awe 

I see you as absolute pure perfection 
And I know it's...

Just try in the imagining of this
And the point of it all try not to miss
His Mother told Him that they were all out of wine
Then Mary told the wait staff to follow Him that all will be fine

Zacchaeus was a tax collector
And amongst the...

Edacious dreams were left to die,
but hunger doesn't fade away.
Sweet longings that pervade each day,
reminding that our hearts don’t lie.

The brilliance of the imageries
(not fading in intensity)
press to my thoughts deliciously -
rose-colored tinted memories. 

Those dreams were never meant to be,
I fight their lure ferociously.
But...

Prayers can't feed starving children,
as bloated bellies can attest.
Yet, the truth's unpalatable,
near impossible to digest.

Dangled in front of hungry eyes,
promises, raise expectations.
And faith defies reality,
fueling false aspirations.

Predictions of times of plenty
are garnered from kernels of Hope.
And yet, seeds of conformity
are sown on a slippery slope.

Paradise...

He sees the rose that's sprinkled in her cheeks
  She sees the cracks in looking glass

He sees the soft brunette of her shining hair
  She sees dull wisps of grey, she cannot manage

He sees the shine and twinkle in her soft blue eyes

Through rose colored glasses
I see your faults
Your lies
But I vowed it all 
When I came to your bed
Even if the thorns scratch
The rose still offers me 
Besides my pain
A sweet aroma
My love for you

We put on rose-colored glasses,
that blur reality's vision.
And block out any wrongs we see,
ignoring the plight of the poor.

To disguise life's uglier side,
we put on rose-colored glasses.
And focus our sight straight ahead,
cheerfully wearing our blinders.

Tinted with alternative truths
that we so much want to believe.
We put...

When I wear my rose-colored glasses
  I see lovely pink grasses
  and the sky is pale pink
  not grey.

I get lost in romantic dreams
  of secret schemes
  and I spread my pink wings and sail away.

My heart beats faster

I didn’t have my rose colored glasses
when I saw the things I shouldn’t see
when I heard things that I shouldn’t hear
when life was just to complicated for me to bare

I was too young to understand life’s 
frustrations & peoples temptations & all the situations that...
