Best Salt Poems

The salt of the seas
sacred in nature...
the salt spice of life
that sweetens our existence...
Albumin, salt of tears
that we cry with blissfulness or sadness...
the salt of the earth
that is offered to the world
to sprout everything, and can not
be tasteless
(thus proclaims gospel)
cheers to salt
of redemption...!...

Did the gods meet at the salt sea and have a severe tragedy?
Where tears flowed from giant eyes and shook the earth in pain.
 
The puddle of tears is the remains of such a great loss of majesty
Saltly crystals must have dried from god's cheeks...

When brainwaves strive against my need for sleep,
I exercise to help my mind calm down.
When pressures get so bad I want to weep,
I do yard work or jog a while through town.
A dear pet or a loved one's home going -
out come the tissues, dabbing...

Salt and Pepper

The ocean waves sing their own special song 
As Sol arises and birds sing along 

Where a sandy beach with seagulls on high 
Call to each other in a scarlet sky. 

I dream of you in long walks by the sea,
I recall sandcastle's...

You hound me for no reason
With much envy you’re consumed
You see my disappointment
Yet rub salt into my wound. 

You pick on my emotions
Make me out to be a jerk,
You hover with a swagger
Comments passing with a smirk.

I hold to my composure
For I know I’m not...

Salt is the seasoning, the spice of life
The reason for giving out
Flavors to heal hurt
Herbs to relieve grief
Suggestions that fill minds
With hope, faith and love

Salt is the zest of giving
The tang that touches
Upon the heart’s feelings
The additive that suggests
We all need God’s healing
With the adoring...

Salt

Cellar by cellar on the cupboard shelf
I fell for you and crave you for myself
You look handsome in your sparkling glass pot
I imagine you'd be tasty and hot.

It'd be lovely to sprinkle together,
There for each other through stormy weather
I'm extremely salty, guess you'd agree
That if...

Gandhi
Marched to Dandi
To fight against taxes on salt,
Non-violence was his axe in this assault.

early sunrise
sugarcoats the morning mood
masking last night's news
in a charade of cheer
melting frozen, salty tears 


sun's antidote
sweetens my attitude
I must embrace 
new beginnings, and rub salt
into wounds of yesterday

There are times when I sit on my porch
Dreaming of the days when I was young
How I miss the sound of the ocean
And the taste of salt upon my tongue

In the arms of a dark eyed woman
A few miles off the Spanish Coast
Making love in...

You are as the lightning to the rod of my soul
You move through me in rumbling thunder and torrential rain
You are the cellular sea of my spirit and I can deny you nothing
Enter at will into my being but bring only kindness and light
Tread gently...

It's been a little and some more

Since i seen the sea

As the tide was out upon 
my previous visitation

So i left without the smell of
salty air stimulating my sensibilities

Until i had to convince myself i
was actually there in the first place

So stupid me i filled...

When in Utah, fat Patty took note
on the surface of Salt Lake, folks float.
So she took a great jump,
but she sank like a lump,
and her splash could have capsized a boat!
