Best Tearfully Poems

I am proud of my eyes
For they reflect the color of Your sky
With them, I am able to witness the wonder of You
The beauty of Your children
The magnificence of Your creation
The infinite and the infinitesimal 
With them I lose myself in Your word
For You allow...

mystic clouds at night
beneath an amber sun
casts a lovely glow..

her face illuminated
as tears freely fall
she trembles..

~as she remembers~

a sky of twinkling stars
which once guided her way
now dull, broken shards..

she falls to her knees
as the tide edges closer
cold and unforgiving..

his soft words
once a safe cocoon
now strife...

items in my container of memories
playbill for "Les Miserables" that Dad enjoyed
reminder of ignoble government
Jean Val Jean’s quest for justice
fugitive from the merciless Javert

outdated cell phone that’s priceless
forever I’ll carry it; this cannot be lost
inbox carries my father’s last message to me
“Happy New Year, Baby,”...

Life is hard and then you die
in the meantime you mostly cry
It seems to me that you have been changed
your attitude somewhat rearranged
 
The place you've been is not so nice
and a terrible place to seek advice
All who go there have had a hard life
full...

The morning broke pragmatically
As the warmth kissed the dew goodbye.
And the thunder clouds who haunted nigh
Had fled and left an open sky.
Where an aged thrasher voiced a song of love
That rained down from up on high.

The towered trees would cast their shade
As the Sun rose...

Finding Me

I sat down to write tonight
and I will not deny it.
I heard a breaking in my soul
as my mind just grew more quiet.

I felt my burdens leaving me
my life flashed before my eyes.
My body rested peacefully
I heard a babies cries.

My spirit floated aimlessly
there's no...

“How deep is your love, for me?”

Tearfully, 

You asked me, my darling.  

 

“An ocean, 

as deep as my love for you, is yet

to be found!” 

Was my reply!

Love hath tasted of arsenic lips
ground thy soul upon treacherous hips
opened vessels with anemic blood
bathed in a teared river of mud

yet loneliness fills a desires plate
tis the companion of Poe's fate
lips sparkled of potent ale
lovely neck a shade too pale

empty bottles of friendship lied
drunken souls...

It is a house
That was once a home.
Now with its eyes boarded up,
It has lost its heartbeat.

No longer does he hear
Her faltering fumbling with the key
When he has to visit.
Guilty memories are buried deep
Within him,just like his mother.

His sister tearfully packed the boxes,
Precious few treasures
Consigned...

It will be her first visit since the day we waved goodbye....

It is spring break !!

It was moving day several months ago...
that she wrapped her small arms around her Grandpa's waist, tearfully
Then turned to me with "I love you" from her small voice"
"I love you...

American Nero,
showering utter disdain — 
Denigration downpour on pleb citizens
begging for pandemic crumbs
As the pestilent fire rages around 
your virally tainted kingdom

Ghastly gladly,
you keep on fiddling 
acid text madly

Dripping hateful words that burn
deep into the bipolar soul 
of a divided nation

An enamel disrobed toga ethos
reveal...

Ghetto me be a bleating poor refugee,
albeit I’m Goshen rich in faith
Got a manger stall in the USA,
Pilate shepherd of the Cesarian peace

Time stamped stillborn delivery
tis iron Roman numeral four C
Furnace cast existence: bane  brand  bound
Babylonian condition, a marketplace sound

Fleeced heritage ... sob...

Our beloved British Bulldog Bill
Our eccentric 
Our stubborn 
Our precious boy
Eleven years he gave to us
pure happiness and joy

When finally that day arrived  
that dreaded day had come
For deep inside it felt just like
our hearts would  break apart
and as he looked into our...

Knocked out by sin
They stunk like mire within, 
They were throden by satan 
Because they clinged to the worldly pathern.

They negleted the golden gain 
For which the saviour was slain
Now in the valey of stain and vain 
They all shamlesslly lay with pain

Destined not to...
