Premium Member My Superpower
I have little control
over the world's travesties
I have power
over little more
than my thoughts
my words my actions
so put away that sharp tongue
so as to never sting or slash
best choose to be kind
so as never to regret
the smile not given
the kind word or
compliment not granted
preferring
to love
wholeheartedly
and spread...

The One True Omnipotent Superpower
Majestically standing at the podium just so
These men of power with prestige and honor
Making promises; can they be kept?
While our father and sons
March into the face of death
What can they offer us?
What will they do
Come the day of reckoning
Are we the fools
Whose heads will be...

Premium Member Patience Is My Superpower
Patience is my superpower
On full display every hour
If someone mad gets in my face
My patience helps me maintain grace

When railroad crossings block the road
I simply enter patient mode
If caught up in a traffic jam
My calmness filmed by traffic cam

Long checkout lines leave some irate
Patience helps...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Premium Member Superpower
If I have a kind of superpower,
it’s recalling names of folks I haven’t seen in years.
I forget new names within the hour;
it’s like the brain reboots and the memory clears.

It gives folks a thrill to think you know ‘em,
but trading short for long might not...

They wanted to be superheroes
They took their inspiration from the beauty and the softness of a flower
and understood their gentleness
and their kindness
is their superpower....

Premium Member Her Superpower
I smell a mountain goat she says
halfway through our wild walk.
Sure you do I almost gloat,
I won't indulge such silly talk.
But, sure enough 'round that next curve
it's standing there and looks at me as if to say
Hey there Bud, you've got some nerve,
and I ...

Premium Member Superpower I Want
I would like the power to instill empathy in every human being I meet
Giving them beautiful smiles and hand waves as I walk down the street.

I would let the magic of kindness and love filter into their heart
I know it is not everything, but you...

Paridolia ADHD my poetry superpower
Paridolia ADHD my poetry superpower 

ADHD is known as a neurodivergent disorder
It's something I've endured my whole life
It was thought I was just being awkward, not quite 
Yet internally I was going through torture

I couldn't understand why I couldn't just comply
Or keep my mouth shut...

Superpower
My superpower.

It is like a desert.

The power uses all the water.

And doesn’t let anything grow.

So I’m like a villain in that way.

I am the epicenter.

And as my power spreads, 

It creates a forcefield.

And inside is a void.

They run away from me.

And they don’t even understand...

Premium Member To be different is your superpower
To be different is your superpower,
An incantation hidden in the heart of midnight,
A silver vein in the dark fabric of the world,
Where dreams whisper ancient secrets and reality slips through veils of mist.
In the flow of consciousness, I lose myself in the labyrinth of the...

The Song is my Superpower
I’ve Just Seen a Face
my first selection
I become more than I am
for the contest
I sing without the prompts
and make the lyrics mine.
I'm happy to have the day off.
Neon lights shine in the window
as other patrons watch
and someone throwing darts
pauses to take a look.
Free deli sandwiches
and...

The New Superpower 2050
I am the voice of time —
The whisper of centuries long silenced,
And today, I thunder:
The Earth has turned. The meek now reign.

In the year 2050,
China stands not as a country,
But as the heartbeat of a new era,
The firstborn of the Global South’s resurrection.
Not with swords,...

Premium Member Quiet Boy
There's a boy at school, he's SO quiet.
But sometimes he'll speak-up and say something that's so funny

A couple of times I've tried to talk to him, after class,
to tell him how funny I think he is, but he practically vanishes.
Kim & Bili (My two BFF)...
