Best Taintless Poems

Growing out of childish pranks,
With the storm and stress of turbulent teens,
I locked within my mind’s cupboard,
A portrait vaguely sketched, but never finished.
Rough it was, though fancifully done,
The silhouette of a masculine figure,
The Gallant who would reach one day,
To hold my hand and own me...

Poisonous air streams down
As plastic-laden waters choke
Fishes and  Universal Motion's glow ...
So much has changed through time,
I wail against slow death of UV skin,
while plundered Mother Earth rakes
in her once fertile womb...
yet indifferent hearts care not,
incensed by greed and unrecyled junk.

O children listen; build...

"Times Square was magnet to rejoicing
hearts, as mine was on that day the victors 
came. With roses, red, as were perhaps,
my cheeks, I vowed each bloom for
every home-come valiant there I'd see."

"I see her still despite the sixty years,
a taintless angel clutching there a bunch
of...

To my future lover, 

Why me? I feel that I don't deserve you, that there are way more attractive, smart, and funny individuals out there--fit to match the mold of your heart. I can't even act properly when I'm around you. Every time you call...

(For people of my generation, especially among the country folk,
dating was not in vogue. When a girl reaches the marriable age, proposals would come and after one or two formal meetings, if the boy and girl like each other, the marriage would be fixed. So,...

Goodness Versus Goblin
© Ben Burton 3-24-2014

Hope will not float
On a moat of despair
Life really blows
When there's no one to care

Death makes a mess
Without blessing the man
Left too bereft
To invest in a plan

Born from a lore
With its mores and creeds
Forged by a sword
Filled with scorn for...

Some of human things produced are beautiful and fair,
Yet they cannot to nature form compare.

The surgeon trained,
Makes lovely nose,
Yet it looks drained,
To what god chose,
For I find fine,
An ugly nose,
But girl which whine,
Is tainted rose.

Some of human things produced are beautiful and fair,
Yet they cannot...

I'm not crazy over goodbyes, so get lost, negativity from another source
I fell away and fell for your lies - I was vulnerable and naïve of course
I'm not under your spell anymore, so quit playing games with me like a child, being obnoxious and bored
I...

Jumping from one tree to another with thrill
With variety of village games filled with a fire of fun 
Roaming over lush green fields, slopes of foothill 
No barriers as we loved and lived as one

Joyful dive in a variety of wells 
Not once in a...

Now the chattering guns have ceased
Now the battlefields are bared
Now we walk where history teased
The convictions of those who stared
I climb the hill to see again
The land that yields its children who toil
For fruit where no father remain;
I climb to see ploughs ripping the soil
Of...

love loved, her beauty faded not,  
live not in solitude but intimacy, 
My lover is a golden gift of treasure to my existence, 
Her countenance tint ruddy,
lofty is her stature, 
and perfectly symmetry, 
nobly is her form and prettily alluring,  
Her beauty faded...

The petals’
Soft streaming
Aloft dreaming
Colors painted in mind
Lovers intertwined

Their taintless imaginations
Drainless infatuations
Obsessions with my feet
Reflections deep

Coves upon which
They meditate
Groves whereat
They levitate

Like sparkles, pink
Heartful sync with love
Ahhh!!!

I forged a fistful lance for my battle.

I shield and fortified my faith whilst I forced my feeble to fracture..

My lance punctured my adversaries to fall..

I forbid fornication and forget my rankle..

I form a fortress of chastity and remain taintless.. 

I extinct fornication and pray...

Good counsel

The enforced sleep to blind it all,
restless thoughts and what may befall.
Rescued from tensions to clear,
the truth so free that there is no more fear.
Tormented fortunes destiny in wilderness,
all tired receiving gladsomeness.
The pilgrimage as soul pioneer,
dreaming the larger life with heavenly cheer.
No longer let...
