Best Spreading Like Wildfire Poems

Like a bud slowly opening its petals
one by one to the sun's warmth.
So too does love creep into hearts, 
once there it soon expands blossoming.
Spreading like wildfire it floods and fills  
every little corner and all the cracks.

New love needs special nurturing
just like the...

Towards the end of late morning,
As noon was approaching,
And people went about their usual chores
A mighty rush of water
Swept them right off their feet.

No one knew what was happening,
Innocent children drowned
Into the deep depths of the...

“Sunflowers”



She planted the seeds
in their minds 
that perhaps 
something of beauty
could come from the bad time

could grow there
in their dead pockets
spreading like wildfire 
futile men in their beds of disarray
across the battlefields of Magog

Sunflowers

faces turned upwards
waving towards their God
silently saluting 
blue and gold
seeking the 1

Innocent children drowned
Into the deep depths of the water..
Waves crashed furiously -
The happiness and joys of the...

Like many other viruses, they came and they went
But this one is different on so many levels
It mutates, it breeds amidst cultural surrounds
Spreading like wildfire infused in it's revel

Once it hits you, there's simply no turning back
For it's not from this Planet we've now been...

Social Commentary 


Injustices in the land 

Spreading like wildfire 

Burning, burning down the wires 

Of discrimination and bias at hand 

While quick fixes are a way to go--- 

All this and more in the American way. 

 

Write down your gripes to your congressman!

Prayers
Make prayers a way of life
My mom would often say
Being a headstrong young girl
Disinclined to obey
Would swiftly turn my back
And hurriedly get away..

A brilliant student with excellent grades
Scored  without much struggle
Had a reputation all over
Of being too bright and clever

Sitting for  my high...

Pain, four letters is all it takes.

Such a small word that has such meaning,

It can drive into the most innocent teething,

As we grow old and our bodies break down,

Hidden in the depths of our minds a constant pound,

It engulfs our spirits, souls and our very...

Daily we check our blood,
Interested in our score,
Another day of lancing,
Better not ignore,
Eating used to be such a pleasure,
Tomorrow could be taking insulin shots,
Earnestly trying to eat good,
So I can help my irregular pancreas.

This disease is spreading like wildfire,
all throughout the land,
it doesn't care who...

There’s a panic breeding inside of me, uneasiness spreading like wildfire.
I don’t know who I am anymore, that’s because everyone else is a liar.

I feel like I’ve been picked up from nowhere and dropped into this pathetic girls 
life.
I really don’t know how she does...

Angels deliver me the message in my dreams,
Once my eyes shut
I'll be waiting for you.

Angels tell me what I’m supposed to know,
stop my subconscious mind from wandering
to places it shouldn't go.
Curiosity is spreading like wildfire
come and take me away before it destroys everything.

Angel give me...

the sun sets as a cloak of evil prevails like a disease

spreading like wildfire eating as the light falls down

its glowing throat into its star covered stomach eating

away like black locust at a new golden harvest eats

till no more is left at suddenly like an...

Miles....cross rivers oceans and seas
mankind bleeds
our own....caught up
placed in bodybags
 " somebody is overlooking us "
tears flooding our streets
screams echoing
 " That's Enough "
 " somebody is overlooking us "
Abomination, destruction, poverty
madness leaking into our water streams
Poison attached to our food supply
Addiction scatching at the...

Spreading like wildfire
through a kerosene soaked forest,
infecting the mind with
its inky black threads.
She’s too fat,
he’s too skinny,
her hair isn’t perfect,
his face is full of pimples.
No matter how they try
no one is able to reach perfection, 
society’s picture of beautiful.
Perfection is not beauty,
it is cold, lifeless,...
