Best Thought Poems

Am I dreaming 
or have I dreamt myself awake
I can’t seem to discern 
between real and fake
What’s right 
What’s wrong
which direction 
should I take
Am I reasonably responsible 
for the many mistakes I might make

Backward bouncy walking
Crazy ticketed talking
Following the run
in a pretty girls stocking
Unafraid of...

"only a thought away"

only a thought away
to see you
to hear you
to feel you
still I search

with all memories
never faded
never gone
my eyes see 
my mind feels

as I look around
comfort blankets me
shadowed by essence
of you
of me
of us

with this new way
I'll hold the belief
knowing what I have
knowing what we...

He knew how to turn up the soil and seed,  
Before the sun got hot by summer's glade;    
And on his lips recounting roses creed 
He gently viewed them as they swayed;   
Together in a garden built of tweed...

Lyrics start 0.05 - timed to the music

Pack your bags dear, there’s a Croc near
And he’s creeping, through the night
With his eye on - on our old stead dear
And it appears - we’re within his sight

You know when that Croc smiles - shows his teeth...

I'm afraid
So afraid
Of being arrested
By the thought police

Their rules are many
Think this
Think that
Don't diverge from the normal
Stop playing on the street corner of tomorrow
Let sleeping dogs rest
Do not question
Do not burn on passionate bonfires

I watch as they ready their weapons
They display arresting warrants through clouded...

We Had Time, Eternity Or So We Thought

We had time, eternity or so we thought
days of sunshine, picnics in flowering fields.
In life and in love, nothing more ever sought
on and on, our raging love forever builds!

We had time, eternity or so we thought.
In life and...

Catching sight of unwanted reflection 
through my eyes I observe my murky mind
lifeless, inactive, defying action
just a blank canvas, raw, pure, unrefined,

desire to inject substantial color 
inspired pastels to brighten the darkness
eyes opaque though restrict light, much duller
impulses, brain requesting less Starkness,

my poor mind is...

When tons of doom filled nights fall on your head,
hot embers glow and fires burn unabated,
you recall her last breath and wish you were dead.
In a poem's sad lines you've been castrated.
From the heavens a voice thunders dire threats
about losses and breakfasts consumed without eggs.
Fumbling...

Blessed in abundance that manifests in our 
stressed daily interaction with our fellow man, and the sincerest 
form of our inner wellbeing is the outpour of laughter.
Dormant in the face of adversity, while we empathise with 
modern populace at large and try to bring some...

I can’t believe I thought that there’d be no darkness when it’s dawn,
I’ll be your queen of hearts, even if the cosmos did crack, 
‘forever’ exists as an unseen reality, and the sun will always sprinkle saffron crumbles, 
upon vivacious petals of violet roses, 
painted...

when my time comes round
let my last thought be loving
with soft light abound...

(Free Verse) 


When I am all alone 
all I do is to think of 
you my Love day and night all long 
and on a silvered fluffy clouds 
I go waffling along to you 
filled with joyful dreams 
of you and I my darling 
and...

Always around 
slightly small mostly black
think of my kids 
that's what holds me back
cracks in my heart 
such a delicate shell
tears fill my eyes 
my eyes start to swell
try to be a new me 
no drugs no liquor
now my eyes open wide 
more reasons to...

when all the words
inside your head
become those words 
already said
and places that
you dreamt you saw
are places now 
you’ve been before
is it that time 
to call a day
on all what was 
and walk away
or is it time 
to take the view
that you should stay
to start anew
and...

Desperation, draw me not like magnets pull
But once again let saneness possess me in full
Do not ravage me like a lion upon its prey
Block not the seeds of thoughts that come to save the day

Like limbs of a tree in the presence of a gale...
