Best Think Over Poems


A call to Earth
In shopping centres, bright and wide,
Where our dreams can fly and glide,
We wrap our hearts in things we've bought,
Forgetting stars, by city lights caught.

Yet, whispers of change might find their way,
As people stand up, by the ocean's spray.
Our Earth, they say, is worth more than...

He said, how can I come to you
There is nothing in your Heart
To call me in your Dreams.  01

“I searched a lot everywhere
In every nook...

but when it effects some one else, 
it becomes difficult and confusing. 
when you must make a decision for yourself and another, 
your judgement can...

Once she was a person of top talked worldwide
People expected a lot from her

But there occurred an accident

Own cultural, natural and open ...

Forgiveness
It was time to let the bygones to be bygone,
And this they meant from the cockles of their hearts.
They felt that the injuries they had to endure were done,
It was too much to think over again about the hurts.

They avoided any thoughts bearing a grudge,...

Farm Life
A day on the farm can be hard work.
Like feeding the pigs and
catching the chickens.
You kick the dog and
throw the cat out the kitchen.

Boy this farm work can be hard.
Run out of the house
down to the barn.
The chores are piling up
but thats just life on...

Chance, choice and circumstances can create, 
     new opportunities in life, to change our fate.
Some challenges camouflage opportunities ahead,

Sleep Afar
Amidst my sleep, the cockcrow
Like a clamor from the crow
The murky eclipse _ still lying in 
rows

Precious sleep, how I need your 
grip
For the bulwarks won’t breath 
nor the dusky move a lip
As I vie with the whizzes _ 
curtains flip

Submerge my soul _ make...

Soundtrack To the Struggle
This is the soundtrack to the struggle
I hit the ground flat when I stumbled
But found a way to bounce back from my troubles
This is the soundtrack to the struggle

Most days I'm too scared and paranoid to go out because of anxiety
When I find the strength...

Who they say life is immortal
Could they give a sign of previous?
Or they cry following others!
Without knowing hints of mysterious!

A little agree shaking heads
Thinking not to face difficulties 
Why bear a headache with others?
In vain discussing rounding tongues 

If there is confine some do know...

European Love
In most cultures families are timid to show their affections 
to their children, perhaps, if they were more adoring and affectionate
their children would not succumb to drug ailments,
suicide and bad company,

Some parents think over emoting makes the children too comfy,
Yet, the Europeans feel no shame...

Casualties of War
I tried to heal people but ended up leaving casualties
I'm only able to give people half of me
I'm just dealing with my apathy
I'm going to war with depression and it will end up in a casualty
