Best Stand In Poems

When you are confused, anxious, in pain, your stomach in a granny knot.
Near the end, nowhere to go, no friends, no family that understands.
"Stand in a field and scream," it helps, they say. I can tell you; it does not.

You've given yourself away; soul, body...

The power and beauty of Nature fill my heart,
Sometimes, gazing at a mountain's grandeur make the tears spill,
Thunder and lightning at eventide, give me a thrill,
Yes, I stand in awe of Nature.

A bird's sleepy chirp at twilight makes me take notice
As I think of the...

All alone, I stand in the crowd.
All aground, I travel the oceans.
All adrift, I'm stuck in the bog.
All afresh, I'm back in the stale memories of a wasted past.
 
All aflame, I freeze in the cold recesses of my soul.
All afloat, I founder in the...

after 9/11 New Yorkers came to realize 
that they need experienced people to keep their eyes on their prize
their airports, professional sports venues and historical landmark sites
require a strong security force to watch over them day and night

Stand In The Shadow Of A Tall Mountain


I went, to stand in the shadow of a tall mountain
not content to sail the deep blue seas.
Delicious sweet that bubbling brook, my fountain
amidst the flowers and massive tall trees.
Morning Sun brought glory within shiny bright rays
splattering across...

Deep down pain is buried,
deep down the soul, from within.
As always, ready to continue on,
pretending happy, with a phony grin.

Placing the pain, aside, to not deal with,
in the distance, like sailor, sailing out to sea.
No matter, where one then truly goes,the pain,
is still there, where...

I stand in prayers...


I stand in prayers.

To pay my humble respect to the Almighty

I close my eyes,

I bow my head,

To see an unseen God

May be just a spark of light.

In the darkness that surrounds me

My mind plays havoc.

Concentrate, imagine you are standing in front of...

My dearest Mrs., Ms., Mystic, or Miss, 
this morning Venus had a special "ask". 
She said to make you fall in loving bliss,
for Cupid's ill and not up to the task.
I'm nervous as I'm kind of new at this.
My first question, should I wear a...

I need to break out, I need to break through,
It’s all about me and squat about you.
Lord let me shine, put me to test
Show them my mettle, my very true best.

I’m in this to win, don’t stand in my way,
I’ve always been great to make...

Never ending praises;
Opening hearts;
Souls that never ages;
New home a mansion;

Eternal praises;
Unworthy sinner;
Wonderfully forgiven;

I stand before you, I pause, I halt,
and lay bare my very soul, Lord,
I have been humbled, been saved, 
blessed with a new song in my heart.

I have faced the angel of death,
with no fear for you held my hand,
my lighthouse, my true north...

Lord, I stand in awe of earth’s creation 
With valleys so deep and mountains so high
I see tapestries of green and fish floating in streams
And, birds flying high in pretty blue skies

I wonder at how geese flock in V-like formation
Following the same destination year after...

Stand In Love

 
Did you fall in love with her face,
With his charm... or her grace?
Was the one you fell for, still around,
To catch you before you hit the ground?

Stand in love, a panoramic view to see,
Not some vailed duplicity. 
Stand in love, feet firm...
