Best Tangibly Poems

"The ocean calms and soothes the soul despite being a great force that ends lives in all weathers, we don't question the ocean. The strength of the ocean is both known and unknown, it's power felt tangibly as we are always drawn in both in...

Gentle on My Mind

You play along the edges, 
of every memory worth having. 
You have been there since, 
I care to look back. 
I was stupid, 
fearful, 
distrustful, 
and dangerous. 

You… ever were patient, 
kind, and slow to anger, 
walking a measured gait. 

Cowboy, 
You...

A withered and separated flower lay squashed in bent stature.The wind silently erodes the remaining petals sequentially, with each pulse of the air. 

A distant nightmare, tangibly manifested, the echoing warning from the past. 

A trapped piece of newspaper married to a low-lying hedge branch,...

It’s taken many years of falling
To finally recognize my calling:
Through miles and miles of endless seeking
All the while truth kept retreating.
Just out of reach, fading from sight
Like dew in the morning
At the break of light…
Rising imperceptibly, tangibly unreal,
It’s taken years of toil and tears
For my...

Though all are blessed with eyes to see,
Eyes never lay sight upon the seer;
No retina perceives the seedling
beneath its iris.

Ocular nerves sense Occam-ented pictures
Of identity: portraits framed by
Ourselves, Us, and Others
- Whose eyes perceived whole
But whose sense perceived naught.

	How is one to know
	Who it is...

She pervades and unveils all that I have kept hidden for so long
I do not know her but I hear her voice in and around my mind
It is weightless and I know she wills it in sound with ease
She is harmony, a beauty I would...

Outside the gladiator's window, outside in the growing gloom of night,

The nearby volcano is almost invisible, only smolders silently now.

Inside his room, he can almost tangibly feel the darkness gathering about him,

Can almost tangibly feel it surrounding him, suffocating him with renewed

Fear of what may...

Titans tilting, tangibly human windmills
Swaying sentries, harboring haloed witness 
  Lofted coal mines, timber canary cages  
            Whispers from redwoods

For days now he had hungered.

His search took him along many an avenue,
where his pleas were so harshly ignored.
But his need was such he had to continue,
so to all that he met he implored.

Many turned him away with brusque impatience,
what had he to offer them...

INTIMACY

Interweave ecstasy
Intertwined tangibly
Infusion of your smile
Irises make me blush
I crave your mind and heart
Intimacy with you 
Idyllic life for two

Impossible mission to captcha infinitesimal moment

alternately titled: tick tock runneth amuck
seconds elapse imperceptibly 
leaving me dumbstruck,
how quickly fleeting tempus fugit; 
ofttimes imagined as time thief.

Hence following vignette: quiet as a mouse lurks the time thief 

The invisible hours hoarder stealthily steals precious seconds (like minute...

Across in the meadow the animals stall

As away in the distance the farmer does call

To the old sheep dog "Shep"

"Away, come around"

The sheep respond cautiously

All milling no sound

The evening shadows lengthens

Tangibly a stillness descends

As nature's heartbeat changes

Chickens in alarm

A scurry of farmhands

There's a fox on...

Afraid of

What am I afraid of...Really.
 is what scares me in thought, silly?
 What I'm afraid of ...
 is my Life never having meaning;
 to never reach my full potential is what my soul be screaming.
 Absolutely no dreaming...
 I'm afraid of the drug...killing me;

why

why

    why does
the room spin
ever so
slow?

what

what

    what does
this pattern
of colors
mean?

muted…

fading…

gone

why are the
stars all just
right out of
reach?

    and
why are you
tangibly
close, yet so 
far?

here…

now…

I’m shrouded
in darkness
with no chance
at all
for
light

here…

here…

in the dark

Sunshine feels tangibly divine
divine basking in the sunshine.
Beguiled flowers favor the wild
wild roses enchant the beguiled.
Tents and backyard barbecue scents
scents that recall sleeping in tents.

Laughs over childish children's gaffes
gaffes are accompanied by laughs.
Splits sprinkled with sugary bits
bits enhance the flavor of splits.
Fun times inspiring youth...
