Best Sweeping Poems

 The club that stamps authority
when in its Zenith
Chelsea!

The club with a zero tolerance
even in a zero percent ball possession.
Chelsea!

Breaks, makes and keeps records.
86 consecutive home games unbeaten, for instance.
Chelsea!

Splashes the cash as money talks,
raping all other teams as Trophies walk
who else would it be?
Chelsea!

Who...

Walking home from work, one windy autumn eve
I noticed some workmen sweeping up leaves,
The more leaves they swept, the more the wind blew
So I stopped to watch for a moment or two

One man swept the leaves into piles on the street
But the wind would sweep...

The hills to the west were looking at me and whispering.
I moved out a little further and turned back to measure the trajectory and speed of their shadow.
The sun put her hand on my shoulder and said “Things have gotten a bit crazy, we’re going...

Once I saw the dark and cold night creeping,
   slowly pushing out warm daylight seeping;
heard the blaring, hopeless sounds of sleeping
   echoing despair’s sad, woeful weeping.

Felt the pain of fruitless daydreams heaping
   deep inside my heart and soul now...

angels sweeping out flakes
lackadaisically

successive shift:
fast and furious

angels on break
storehouse still
to be emptied

funniest sight?
a full-size snowman
drops from the clouds

foreman’s mad
he smiles though
at the cheeriest
curveball snow

angel’s never angry more
than a millisecond
heaven’s work a joy
yesterday, today and forever

Sweeping and cleaning in autumn day:

Why is the sweeper sweating in cold ?
A place unstuffed is stuffed again.

Where comes the silly dirt?
Down the streets and up the trees.

What can now the sweeper do?
Sweeping not against the wind....

There is something strangely satisfying
About sweeping leaves in the wind.
A pure and pristine panacea for the soul.
As the impish zephyrs play
With a rustle of laughter
Tumbling through;
Sometimes for,
Some against, the action of my toil.
With the rhythmic swish of my broom
The breeze blows and the branches bow,
Scattering...

Autumn comes, layered in dust
from summer winds
And a a drought parched earth

A path leading up to the porch is
not as welcoming as it was in May
Now overgrown with patches of thirsty devil grass
Brown and searching for a drink
While weaving it's tendrils between the slate

As I...

A sweeping truck came down my street today; 
its brooms and brushes whirling on the ground.
Wetting the pavement and making thin mud.
Gathering stones, dirt, lost buttons and leaves.

Up and down the street blocks and along the roads.
Gathering sand from the winter and from people who...

Only the moon 
wanders  around the farm now –
a dog barking....

She is 98 and sweeps sweeps sweeps her patio away
Every day for hours
Arms wrapped around her broom
Bride groom
Lifted over the threshold of twigs and torment

She cannot see nor hear much farther than her own reach

For I wave to her from the yard next door
Call out...

i left today for the last time
it was almost surreal
i almost think its sad 
that none of them know
how much they mean to me
and that its finally okay
that i know i dont mean as much to them
even though they were the only thing 
that held...

God's sweeping judgement will come
on those that have turned back
from following the Lord God
for refusing to go down God's track

God issued various declarations of I wills
showing His authority over HIs creation
the hand of God will strike down idolatry
hating this sin through every nation

What are the...

I stay situated 
    upon an antique
dusty leather chair
as the scent 
   of incense invokes snippets  
of half-written pages 
       from my past...
thunder gently rolls 
       in...
