Best Slowdown Poems
AndAnd
Goat heads, cockleburs, and cow pies.
These are the things
we live with, in the country.
Some you step on,
some travel in your clothes,
and some stink.
Foxtails.
That sounds so beautiful.
They are terrible.
They cling and bring pain
to the feet of dogs....

Magic Carpet RideIf you believe in magic,
come and take my hand.
We will escape what's tragic,
and stop trying to understand.
Leaving all of the chaos behind.
Taking everything that has been denied.
Belief and hope in whatever we find.
Fantasy comes alive, a magic carpet ride.
Soaring through an endless sky.
Fluffy white clouds...

Get OnboardBeen late for the past few hours, girl get out the shower
This don't make no sense
Slow to get up hills
afraid of making spills
Don't mean that we should stop
This love was built to last
stop living in the past
And slowin' down in curves
Relationships get blurred

Smile On Your FaceSmile on your face
Smile on your face
Feelings hidden in my heart
Happiness fills the air
Heartbeat won't stop slowdown
Smile looks at me
I speak in silence
Feelings remain
Unspoken words once again
Dreams is a wish
Smile still there always
Forever it will stay.
Smile on your face
Only my...

Preach To a Brocked SoleHash do not cry,
matter of fact forget your crash.
rash once again try,
connect the peaces and light your stash.
blush! oncemore be shy.
Rest your eyes,
whipe of your tears,
for whatever you weed for has come to pass,
for the lies, let your eyes pay the price.

TimeTime
Did we think that time would always there for us?
An infinite amount of time to use as we please.
Never counting time.....and never thinking it would end
Did we ever doubt that someday time would be our elusive enemy....
something that we could not buy, slow down....or...

It moves my adrenaline and makes me feel alive

Welcome to your crossroads
Welcome to the fork in the road
Which path are you choosing?
Which way are you gonna go?
Are you lost or just wandering

In the landslide
Rise up
And reform the mold

Tired of Feeling Sleepy Today August 17th 2019Tired of feeling sleepy today - August 17th, 2019
Lashed with fatigue,
eye cannot fend off lethargy
hazy, hot, humid weather zaps
mental physical, and spiritual energy
even men of cloth
various and sundry clergy.
Undoubtedly summoning Parson Brown
currently out of season,
though stratospheric demand
for his person now
unprecedented as summer
dog days force physical...

Nursing Issues Back To HealthFlorence they are honoring nightingales
Blazing an individual’s healthy trail
Having a firm grip on what is going on
When life unleashes an adversity bomb
And everyone needs to stay calm
Pressured not to fail
Problems needed to identify then nail
Telling disease you’re never...
