Best Transition Poems

I once encountered a mountain, I didn’t want to climb
So, I stood and viewed its beauty, left everything else behind
I once encountered pouring rain and didn’t want to get wet
I chose to watch and listen to soothing sound without regret
I once felt pain in my...

The day I truly became an adult – oh I remember it like it was yesterday
The moment I gave birth to you my son – my life changed forever
Nothing can prepare you for the responsibly of having a child
Children are helpless, vulnerable and totally dependent...

Barren ground, (un)familiar shapes
From restless dreams I try to wake
A picture forms but cannot decide
How to assemble my truth and lies

Butterflies perch upon the lion's mane
I escape from its jaws just to go insane
Entering wagon wheels disguised as pens
Only to draw from sand, more REMs

Beyond...

Transition From Deep Dark To Brightest Light
(Chained Sonnet--100 words)

Within dreams sent into this world of shades
shades full of heartaches and long slashing blades
blades severing sleeping rest on soft nights
nights of diminished hope and sharpest pains.
Pains of death at this sad door now knocking
knocking that promise...

Visions of a life unseen,
Moments that vanish before thee,
Life progresses and I'm left behind,
Death a transition of life foreseen.

Today you're here,
Tomorrow never seems to be,
Instances of life and death,
Raven of the night take flight and away!

Death is calm and precise,
Steady and obscure as the night,
Pulling...

The family all gathered to consort
as the doctors turned off all life supports.
They moistened her lips with a lollipop.
Shortly after her breathing stopped.
She looked at peace, her eyes fixed far away,
not a trace of pain on her face that day..
She lingered for a farewell kiss,

Night lay in deep, mournful silence,
Quiet without life’s sweet presence.
Shadows moved brutally monstrous.
Arrows of fear dashed horrendous.

Soon darkness from the earth moved out.
Moon went to its secret hide out.
Sun came on his diurnal shift.
Fun it was to watch snow clouds drift.

~With The Lord ~
 ( Transition )



 In 
 The Lord 
 I trust He
 Guides good through all
 He goes where I go
 When in need seek Lord say prayer
 When walking with the Lord can bear it all
 With Jesus can have Love...

It was almost like twilight this morning
Grey clouds so low on the hills
Not far for rain to fall                           ...

Eighty seems to be the transition age
When we revert back to a child like stage
We stomp our feet
No more sweet
It allows us the privilege to rant and rave...

When I held your hand
Did you ever understand?
Could it be the way our stars align?
I prooved to be a flawed design

Did it show in my blue eyes?
I could have been the perfect bride
Never thought it'd be that way
I would've had...

A new time when the rain sees and greet
the noon day is so weak and shy still
a new time when the sun is fed and beat
wake up call to put time to a refill
a new time when the snow fall to be neat
the air and...

Your transition is a miracle 
A Divine orchestrated Oracle 
Like the ever-changing caterpillar 
Metamorphosed into a butterfly 

 Graceful and Beautiful
 Bright and Colourful 
Gracefully transforming its body 
Spinning itself like a silky cocoon 

 For a season, it goes through pain 
To renew the...

autumn winds rousing about
singed leaves of burnt sienna
twirling dance of sweet demise
