Best Roughest Poems


Premium Member Walk Tall
I was born and raised in a little town by the name of Calder
That was just twenty miles south of the Canadian border
As a boy I enjoyed going to school and was doing really well
Mom sang my praises to all her friends; she was proud you...

I Live With Only Life To Give Clean For Soup
I've gone too far to ever come back
bad luck stuck in a mental trap 
I’m going to start accepting facts
Suck in no air so lungs collapse

I had ambitions to reach the top
Until I saw how high it sits
A fear of heights told me "stop"
So I...

Premium Member Facing the Hurt
To ride the sea is a pleasure and a curse
as huddle of gulls, starfish dart from nowhere
enchanting frolic on breakers, they traverse
into buoyant laps with crystal tides so rare.
My arms swivel a distance while I immerse
from deep lures of an islet, beyond compare;
yet once, twice......

Premium Member Iridescent Path
Smooth like glass the ground slithers all along
The beat goes down the street singing a song
Surface delights to even the roughest
Slipping, sliding enacting the toughest

Colors reflecting all throughout the way
Making the wet road seem cold in the day
Breaking down the path, hard surface below
Open ways...

Complicated Love
It's as if every time i take 2 step forward,
You always make me take 5 steps backward.
You're on my mind all the time,
But am i on yours?
I miss you so much,
But do you miss me?
I'm crazy about you,
But do you even see it?

Sometimes, sitting here,
I...

Carry On
Author Dana Redricks
August 14, 2018

All the pain in my life
only God can give
me the passion and
the desire to carry on
in this pain, so long
No one can walk my
journey, or wear my shoes
only I can sing my song
every day is a struggle
only God can give me...

Premium Member Bigfoot
I am the hidden, the forbidden, and the lost link
Unto the creature called man?
The basic primal instinct, the raw inner fear,
That quivers within the interior nerve left exposed,
Do I exist, define existence if you so dare?
Habitations inherit divergence, I’m diversity’s
Maligned beast, living on the edge...

Premium Member Having a Bad Day
Today I had the roughest day that I have ever had.
Of all the crazy, wacky ones, this day’s been really bad.
It started when I first woke up and fell out of my bed.
I cut my scalp so deep the blood was dripping from my head.

I...

The Cowboy
The Cowboy
A hundred thousand miles
were written on his face
He'd earned near every wrinkle
Did this cowboy known as "Jace"
He'd ridden cross the country
From Death Valley up to Maine
In weather full of sunshine
To the roughest hurricane
He owned two pair of Levis
One for workin', one for church
To know...

Mabon
The wheel has turned and the seasons have changed.
In Mother Nature's tapestry - the colors rearranged.
A long time ago we traveled from miles around.
Covering valleys, streams, and the roughest ground.

To celebrate this special day with family and friend.
We're not sure when we can gather this...

A Shakespearean Sonnet
The moon doth appear in that dark horizon
And glistens with a beam of drifting light.
Let thy passions stroll with the companion
Of forlorn hovering clouds in moonlit night.
O Nature, sing not thy lonesome songs again
For I doth find a friend in each of thy cells.
I rejoice...

Premium Member I'll Walk Alongside You
To the mountaintop, the moon, and back
In times of peace and war, 
From daybreak to sundown 
Until the Mississippi River runs dry
