Best Take Heed Poems


Premium Member Take Heed
If I leave before you do
These words you must try to heed
Remember them forever
So from your grief you will be freed

I know that you will miss me here
And life will not be the same
But "your "candle has not gone out like mine
It's just a flickering...

Premium Member Take Heed, Love
We cannot mimic the cry of a loon. Nor capture the light of the moon.
We'll never reach a distant star. Both too high and much too far.
Yet we search, both hither and yon, Seeking that magical bond.
Love is fragile all too often. It melts a...

Scoffers Take Heed
A gut full of grease is a glutton for greed
A swirling cesspool of sinful man's seed
These men of corruption, a pitiful breed
They trust their own hearts, which deceives them indeed
Prey for the fallen and wicked to feed
Who whisper with promise to fill man's each need
They...

Premium Member Vampire Take Heed of What You Sow
He drank, thirsting for her;
with stygian lips pressed to her neck,
She was exsanguinated.

The squalid night-beast, left her lifeless body, 
behind an alley dumpster. 
No moonlight betrayed the remnants,
of his latest meal.
Any slight remorse, that he felt,
was obliterated by the metal-sweet taste, 
upon his vile tongue.
He...

My Inner Nature Take Heed
No longer what I was a month ago, not attached to this earth.
Like a wounded eagle, I'm once more regaining strength... once again stretching my  
mighty wings.

This lioness was once unaware of being caged; awakes and is now free.  Hear me roar.

With one...

Take Heed
We must take courage to look at, can, 
That dirge and the tragedy of Hiroshima, 
To conclude and rationalise if we can, 
That throbbing, deathly, vile panorama.

We did it, we conceived of it, 
We intentioned that statement said, 
So let that blood statement ourselves hit,...

Take Heed of the Garden
He's rolling along the blacktop,
Rolling past Flora's crop,
Like a disinterested wind,
A Zephyr without a clue... 

He doesn't stop to take notice, 
It's just one foot before the next,
Placing his worn out size twelve
Atop a sweet daisy...

His touch is rough, and,
Better fit the for handling the
Painstaking...

Take Heed - A
Don't be fooled by her innocent eyes
She's a devil in disguise
Weaving a web of falsehood and lies
There's evil hidden behind those innocent eyes

Don’t underestimate her power
There are thorns that hide beneath that flower
Loosen your guard and that will be the hour
You fall, fail, submit, and...

Take Heed
The truth is always bitter
I have never known
Its authenticity
Till now
When I learnt that...
...the past haunts...

I had it well covered
Or so it seems to me
But yet it leaked
Nay!
It burst...
...the past haunts...

A false fabric I clad
Deceit it was worsted in
Yet in it I rejoice
Till nemesis caught me...
...the...

Caution need be taken so please be prepared
Got a big axe to grind

New Writers Take Heed
By Franklin Price
6/2/2015

New writers take heed
Of the words I write here
I'm not well known at all
Want to make that quite clear

These words of advice
May establish a link
Try them on for size
And see what you think

Write for yourself
Of what touches you
Feel what you...

Premium Member Take Heed of What Your Fracking Awakes
In stygian depths, 
a specter swims,
descendant of Great Cthulhu 
and Leviathan.
For eight hundred years in 
caverns deep, beneath 
stygian black waters,
his cryogenic sleep’s,
disturbed by
fracked-cracks
in Gaia’s core.
now he rests in peace,
no more.

No ordinary Cthulhu
now is this,
no ordinary 
demonic fish,
this diabolic fiend
is twisted from
spilled chemicals, 
toxic rot,
unseen.

Venomous...
