Best Test Of Time Poems


Test of Time

Secrets blowing in the wind

Another gift, another lift

Words whispered from the soul

Echoing in the chamber of my heart

Looking ahead to the dreams we'll have

It's what we believe in

No turning back

Chosen ----- Frozen

Lost in love

Lost in life

Wiping away all the tears

Soothing all our fears

Together our friendship

will survive the test of time

Test of Time

There is one life
There is one truth 
You are my angel
But I fail to recognize you

Test of Time

Back in the day
I stood rigid against the sky
Dressed in crimson red
I could be seen from one hill to the next

I was the shelter for many on this land
Sometimes the farmer would stand 
Pitchfork in hand
Leaning against my door frame
Watching a storm roll through
Knowing I would protect him

Summer time my mouth hung open 
As they filled me with square meals
Of sweet smelling hay
Through the white winters
I held in the warmth for my friends
As they bedded down for the night

Through the years
My naked boards have peeled skin deep
I now moan and groan
Leaning slightly to the left
Against the Iowa winds
Few seek my shelter
Afraid my boarded bones will splinter

Yet I still stand here
As a reminder to all who pass
That these memories are what
Hold me together 
Standing against the test of the 
Midwest time

Resolve For a Positive Option To Pass the Test of Time

There are people who express their frustrations in extreme and fatal ways which take them out of the equation of "The Test of Time". These "Tests" are given to every last one of us at birth. There are millions of versions of these "Tests" due to the variables in their environments which they were brought up in. There are some inevitable variables though that wind up fatal regardless. I feel in these fatal situations, these people would have a blessing from the creator due to these unstoppable events. no matter Rich, Stable, or Poor, these "Tests" are here for everyone to go through. Fact: The elders of this world have "Resolved" many "Tests" or their lives would have been shortened before they would've reached 60,70,80,90, or even a whole century of lifespan on this planet! Imagine the many "Resolutions" they have to share with us through their "Tests" they had to take. Some of their "Tests" are very similar to ours of these current times, even though the trends are very different. No matter what, everybody gets slapped from time to time by life, you must suggest to yourself a positive"Resolve" and push forward. I have went through many "Tests" in the 36 years of my life and had to examine my options for a positive "Resolve" in these "Tests" and I expect many more in the future. So if you meet someone who says they rarely are "Tested" by life or they "Resolve" their obstacles swiftly, they're lying, because like I said they happen to everybody, some are sudden and there are some "Tests" that your only "Resolve" is to walk away from in a since and let it take it's course!

Last the Test of Time

Last the test of time

Every heartbeat Echo's around a focused determined soul, Gasping for life but ever focused on his goal. Every footstep screams eternity, This pain it can not last, Where others have fallen, The chosen must hold fast.

In dream state is your focus, Eyes lock in disbelief, Verbal beating close to follow, But you stare it out with ease. Physical torment, Ever close my final mission, Gouging at my spirit, My own war of attrition.

The beaten rise victorious, Mentors praising close of play, Now patted on the back as civilian shades away. Rewarded for our pain, The marks still plain to see, But more pain is to follow, A life's pain it will be.

Blind are the tortures, Who destroy your child hood dreams, For every blow is echoed to his own adolescent screams. He marches on regardless, His actions famed by all, But those who once you barked a threat will stand to take your call.

This pattern will repeat as our planet spins its time, The vulnerable among us lured by arms or crime. This process is not imagined, Its surrounded us for years, By the thinking men of law, Forged with public tears.

As reflection shows its hand, Time undoubtedly will heal, But the scars of the protector will always be for real.
Often a memory, Or an image of a crime. . .

These are the unseen scars. . .

 

That Last The Test Of Time.

Test of Time

Test of Time

Who builds courage with 
time?
Who with a right character
Always looks delight like a 
star?

Who endures in cloudy climes,
with moderation as her 
shelter?
Who approaches all asperities 
with passion?

They that have perseverance 
and endures with aplomb
They that are tolerant

those who are insouciance
They that have endurance
And that  are noble

They that are temperate
Those who are patient.

Premium Member The Love of God Last Forever and Stands the Test of Time

Man promises heaven and earth
even with intense emotions, yet he's fake
and when his manifestation is done
the effect suddenly hits hard like an earthquake

after a while, I stand up from my fall to trust again
but with the mysterious human mind so Opaque
I'm being picked and thrown back to the same spot like a rake
completely drowned and stagnant in an iced-lake.

Then finally, I found someone
who has already paid the price for my sake
so unbelievable is the experience with him
that it seemed i'm just awake.

Despite being on a verge to break
He made me worthy of a re-make.
Surely, His love knows no fault or mistake.

The scattered ingredients, he is ready to take
expertly mixing them, prepared to bake
Loh and behold! The final piece: an eye catching Cake
He has crafted me into for heads to shake

Such love can never wax cold
lasting forever and standing the test of time
because I know and I am sure;
me, He will never forsake.

I stand here the noose around my scruffy neck
can’t stand it anymore time has arrested and
the hangman had to answer just another call

Have done no wrong stood firm in the face
of interrogation did not mumble a single word
have merely voiced my point of view dissented

The fading sun is blood red on the horizon
like the revolution waiting for a song of change
no blindfold please and get it over and done with

But the executioner is so busy at the gallows
the bottom does not drop for one final shout
to squeeze from my throat in firm conviction

I stamp on the floor but the fall lies in waiting
the last supper now merely a distant memory
but should I not look forward when passing on

Finally there is movement as the scaffold trembles
snapped crumbled crunched to pieces the sky recedes 
yet there is no silence but can I dream when dead

Shaking with tremor the ground opens up in justice
it was not my fault but the earthquake came in time
and the rope guides me from underneath the rubble

Love to Last the Test of Time

I drink of your company
and dine on your laughter
I bathe in your kisses
and glow ever after

You fuel me forever
We are a force divine
and I expect our love to last all tests of time

Love to Last the Test of Time

Test of Time

Test of Time

       there's always more
       trapped between quotation marks
       the metal parasites resume an ancient harmony
       clockwise the numbers rhyme again
       eight ways to cheat infinity
       one version less tonight

       the little bulb above my head
       blinks off and on
       like crossing wires to watch the motor burn
       grounded to this bookend night
       at last the first condition met

       I had a diary as a child
       writing what I would do
       instead of what I'd done
       my invented future lived in a drawer
       300 mostly blank pages
       a young boy sits at his desk
       the time between us breathing
       through an ocean of decay
       I don't know what to tell him
       or if he's even there
       decades snap apart like twigs
       in a fire I cannot start

       my past is filling up as
       my future drains away
       now I'm living in reverse
       unwriting my protected life
       bottom to top right to left
       another ending bends towards
       this parallel reminder

Test of Time

(Verse 1)
Baby, our love is still beating strong, 
After all these years
Two kids married, with emotional fears
Two scared hearts, beating oh, so strong

(Verse 2)
Well, the fires still burning
Since our first kiss
Two souls, still glowing, heavens bliss
Blue eyes to blue eyes, still twinkling, burning

(Verse 3)
Darling, our lives went through many ups and downs 
As others created drama
We left nothing, turn our smiles into frowns, as we listened to your mama
Through life, we adjusted, to the drama queens karma
And nevet left others, tear us down

(Verse 4)
Our love has passed, the the test of time
As the years drifted by,
We ignored those we met
This is why our lives are blessed, as we never ever forget
Our hearts still beat as one, just knowing, we stood that test of time

Stacy, I Love You!!!!!

Test of Time


It Has Been a Long Time
Since We Stood and Said "I Do"
I Loved You Then  I Love You Now
My Heart Belongs to You

Today You Sent Me Flowers
They Were Pretty as Can Be
And Such a Sweet Reminder
Of the Love You Have for Me

So Rare, with So Much Beauty
Our Love Will Always Be
You and I Together
For Everyone to See

I Wonder If They Notice
How You Make Me Feel
You Lift Me up So High
You Make My Senses Reel

We Have Stood the Test of Time
Who Could Ask for More
Especially When You Love Me
Behind Our Bedroom Door

I Love You

Time is very much like a RIVER
Throwing up GHOSTS to make us SHIVER
And leaves us sweating and COLD
How many like Faust have their souls sold?
DELIVERING webs so WICKED
With no return journey,life is but a one way ticket
That the mind freezes
And our world teases
So many with a tormented mind
From which rarely can they  solace find
How can we escape this cold phantasmagoria
To translate it into  full blown  ecstatic euphoria ?
There never can be a proper escape
From time's oppressive  chronological  rape
