Best Third Person Poems

He speaks metaphorically to avoid dealing direct, 
shows the unknown hand he’s against too much respect, 
writes about his bravery though it’s no where to detect
or talks in the third person like this I'd expect.

Going on about himself like it’s happening to someone else,
distanced from...

Strange thought just entered my head
What if I critiqued my own poems
D'ya think I'd really be tough on myself
Or would you detect a slight bias tone

Tried using the criteria of accepted norms
I'd be down at the bottom, no bones
But for humorous verse and originality
Call me...

I feel the sweat of a race not run
and hold the clench of a stomach churned,
as I crumble and fall, using artifice to
fool this world of my consummate ease

This daily pulse has blood flow restricted, 
like the sparrow evading the falcons dance.
And I,  in...

Step aside,slightly,
               from a beach beside
               cold moving water.

A sighting in rain,

It's very hard for me to write in the third person, especially to think and describe with poetic imagery the thoughts and feelings of others.
With my soul burning, like california wildfires.
soul screaming, asking why, 
bipolar mind panicking through crisis of historical proportions

it's very hard for...

Thundering skies make me remember the night,
when your eyes flashed in agony of pure joy.
For every and each drop of that rain I would fight,
and have it all again before my heart could ever coy.

But time is not a friend, an enemy that all destroy,
and...

I found the joy
In light and love
Laughter sent down
From heaven above

You found the hope
In faith from the Father
A pure inspiration
From God’s enlightenment

He found serenity
In a heart that gives
From the kindness within
Where heaven moves

I found joy, gladness, warmth
You found hope, healing, grace
He found peace, promise and...

Are you having an affair she asked?
The response was a quick yes
Do you love her?
Again he said yes
Do you see her often?
As much as possible came the reply
Do I know who she is?
Yes you do he said
Will you tell me… please?
It’s you...

I will measure the mannerism,
Your prejudice, your reluctant mood
And then the omniscient third person
Will whisper,” Are you done, finally?”...

He's so phoney in poems, moaning only,
same tone, same story,
a war he can't endure anymore that beats him sore and sorry,
exploring his core for strength absent before in writes of sheer folly.

Wanting to write powerfully like Churchill or Eminem,
but unable to create an impact as...

      Elegant lady, graceful, majestic 
       Mathematician and analytic.
     Lover of literature and music.
     Friendly, helpful, compassionate, frolic.

      Reasonable rational and...

A scientist once took to the skies,
With aerospace dreams and questioning whys.
He'd listen intently, a thoughtful façade,
Then go his own way—decisions, unflawed.

"Don’t argue!" he'd say, with wisdom so spry,
Yet soon he'd be caught in a passionate reply.
Papers unwritten, his ideas took flight,
But work clipped his...

Crazy in a good way, controlled hilarity
She makes me feel good to be me
So honest, she offers a truth buffet 
Controlled hilarity, crazy in a good way

Push her to the front, she'll surely get us in 
She slides past the rules, strategises the win
Usually includes...
