Best Simple Truth Poems


Premium Member A Simple Truth
Blue edges, an ebony sky,
and cotton-candy clouds blush pink,
for a new day is on the brink.

Where eagles were once seen to fly;
morning gets filtered through a haze,
a legacy of yesteryears.

A molten sunrise blinds my eye;
dissolving the fringes of night
with a dazzling display of light.

Dawn's beauty,...

Premium Member The Simple Truth
We all are one, simply know this 
Let’s see ourselves for who we are
In God’s image, love, light and bliss

No need then to struggle and spar
Voids within fill, if we be still
Let’s see ourselves for who we are

On choosing to relinquish will
Bliss magnetism pervades our...

Intermediate truths must do for now ~
Until God’s grace does not wisdom endow

We are in distress and so seek solace ~
Clinging to a faith to garner God’s grace

We look to the sky, thinking God’s out there ~
It’s a guessing game, of mind unaware 

Every ism...

A Simple Truth
There once was a girl from a grotto
Who lived with a very short motto
Live and let live
Be happy to give
Life’s joy is not winning the lotto...

Premium Member Learning On the Path of Life
Whichever pathway you decide to choose,
They’ll always be lessons and lots of clues.
On every pathway, lessons will exist, 
Finding truth will require that you persist.

Walking a path, does not learning assure.
Takes more than presence, learning to secure.
From your doubt you ask, “why aren’t I learning?”
Lacking...

There is an ease when l am with you
The way it should be
Never an awkward silence
Just a realness and honesty

No judgements made
You accept me completely
I am me and you are you
Just as love should be …....

Paper Clips
Most people are easily bent out of shape
Like Paperclips
Because they can't hold it together
Like Paperclips
My words are weapons so I lock & load
My Paper Clips
I bet your two cents is worth less 
Than a Paperclip...

Premium Member The Story of the Pot and the Kettle
Fresh upon the morning grove,
With day becoming hot,
And sitting there upon the stove,
A kettle and a pot.

The kettle blew and lifted high,
And poured into the cup,
With that to see it’s bottom by,
And so the pot spoke up.

“Pardon me to even know,
For I don’t mean to...

Patience
Patience

A word that people say is a virtue,
And a value that exists in very few.
The ability to wait for someone or for something to happen,
Like waiting for Jesus to come and seeing if I made it to heaven.

It is easy to say and pronounce, only...

Flowers
They are beautiful
gives matchless scent
spreads the perfume all around
and are not bound

They have different shapes
their color is best
Their scent varies
and cant be compared with rest

They make surroundings good
have the power to change mood
they act as an attractive source
and can impress a lady without force

They are...

Child’s Play


Perhaps we should let the children lead.
Two mothers sat on a bench
speaking in an unusual tongue,
one sat alone scanning her cell phone,
a Dad pretended to teach his daughter to fish,
grandparents toddled after a toddler.

The children did what children do
follow the sound of children’s voices,
gravitate...

These Are the Portals of Evil -- Part 1 of 2
The body is the portal to which Evil uses to enter the Universe, our World, and our Lives. Evil could not exist without these three portals:

Premium Member My Reason To Write
I know I haven't posted 
Much of anything, of late
Cause I saw the !00 best
And I ranked 48
Now some may feel insulted
And others filled with thanks
But I, just like to write my rhymes
And stay below the ranks
It's not that I am humble
Or appreciate the fame
I...
