Best Spelled Poems

It’s no coincidence that the word God
spelled backwards is a word that we all know
for something by which we are often awed -
a creature, which unfailingly, can show
amazing grace toward any one of us!
Our canine friend does not care how we dress
or if we’re rich...

Death mixed with morning rain and darkness,
Icy patches hidden on the pavement
Lived comfortably on the outside
As I rode along in my car like the 
Planchette of a Ouija board.

Unaware that the power(s) that be
Were battling against each other
To push my car on...

As I open the door in your room
I enter with that warm feeling
Taking my clothes off, wearing yours
I am home, in your arms, once a week.

I lay myself in your bed
Its small and its better
I lay not to sleep but to dream with you
To hear...

My time is now.
You will know this by seeing 
the perking up of my eyebrow.
I am in it to win it.
I will not take myself 
out of the game
and quit. 
I will fight till the end. 
No matter what 
is around the bend. 
This life...

In his quest for happiness and peace
Man searched for vague philosophies
Made theories, conjectures
Yet doctrines all unsure
With the end of Self
Happiness spelled
Three letters
Only...
GOD.

Mine slovenly unkempt appearance spelled embarrassment

spurred by most recent therapy session 
with Renee Cardone
whereby thematic thread
stitched how yours truly sewed
coping modus operandi,
viz avoiding emotionally volatile situations
courtesy mine trademark signature reactions 
rather than be in compliance with expectations.

Said nonconformist passive rebelliousness 
especially affected our eldest daughter...

in search of victims
none were found
trees blew 
water filled the town
quick alert the systems

broke and weak
stranded.
rich and powerful
vanish

no shelter 
broken promises
 
this is america
we united
one storm
now it's whatever!

my feelings can't 
hide it 
when it comes to weather

katrina the tropical storm
knocked down houses and churches

FOREVER SHOULD  BE SPELLED FOUR EVER
    BECAUSE, BABY, YOU MIGHT RATE FOUR MONTHS AT BEST 

Baby, this is forever like Never-Neverland
Where frowns and tears are forever banned
No sorrow because forever is in the center of our love
And baby, those are all...

Sitting passenger in an orange 57 Chevy pickup
Sipping occasionally from a warming beer
It’s going on to sunset and we’ve had a day
The wives and kids are back at The Coop (his house)
We’re in “The Pumpkin” with Biffer his soul mate
Highland terrier He’s brought me to...

What if - 
Oh the wondrous vines, 
Whimsically, twisted, 
Mixed altogether?

What if- 
Dreams were standing, 
A perfect embodiment,
Fixated, escaping the beholder? 

What if-
Upon the chase,
The world went blind?
The fading green fear.

What if-
Lightning struck fears path?
A blackened heart, turning pearl,
Undeniable, passionate courage.

What if- 
These what if's...

Poems galore at this site, for all to read
Over time, everyone’s talent shines through
Even the simplest of forms is not with ease
The words become blood, held with sentiment true
Releasing the heart on the screen to then share
Yes, it’s our hearts that each other does read
So...

We wanted to break bread
that was pure, clean, pristine, 
stark white and wholesome,
with a crisp, but soft, 
light brown crust.

The field was prepared with
thrice washed and cleaned machinery,
and spread with N, P,  K fertilizer
applied overhead.

The soils was filtered to remove
all weeds, sticks and stones,
stubble...
