Best Uncomplaining Poems

in my yard stands a tree
lone like a hermit, regal like a monarch
its roots dug deep
its branches touching the heavens
peeking behind the skies veil
sometimes its leaves rustle
overall it is silent and still
still.................... 
like waters without ripples

it stands upright
brooding over the saga of struggle
from a sapling...

The  air  is  still,  you  can  hear
Buzzing of bees, feeding on nectar
And  pollen  of  fruit  trees;  we
Slowly walk through with gentle ease

Grateful for a small measure of shade
That  tease  by  uncomplaining...

(more about my cat Callie and her two "replacements")

Since Callie died, new felines
as precious as can be
now rule my house most freely
and sometimes hide from me.

And neither one of them,
while sitting on my bed 
would ever (like sweet Callie)
curl up purring by my head.

Nor would...

"Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new; This Child that you delivered will soon deliver you?" From modern Christmas song "Mary Did You Know?" published 1991, my favorite of all songs about Christ's birth.

Imagine young Mary, pregnant and riding...

Just like a football I am and have 
been bounced around a bit,
But only by chance of fate, no man 
would get away with it.

The football suffers silently
the grabs, the throws, the kicks.
I’m not one to take that from 
the country boobs or the city...

Kindheartedness

Ellen had a lot of experience in washing nappies, six bairns in less than eight years. William 
Chapman had a lot to answer for. Everyone knew, or thought they knew, what poor Ellen had 
to put up with. His drinking, his womanizing, and, some said,...

A blade of grass peeks from a crack in the pavement,
silently growing with each passing moment.
Not caring about its harsh surrounding,
it survives firm and uncomplaining.

Left to itself it will rise and then flourish
unless some footsteps crush it to pieces.
It will break through every rock and...

Deep rivers of life
sink deeper, flow narrow,
courage only can help to persevere.
Holding on though the rope is too high is crucial.
Following the flow of the river is the key.
Knowing its seasons determines success.
In winter walk uncomplaining on its icy banks.
In spring blossom like the flowers...

DOMESTICATED  ANIMALS


Our friends, Animals, 
Your name from the Greek word
“Anemos” comes,
That  Anaximenes, the wise of old, 
The divine wind, that sustains the
Universe, named,
Which with every breath, the lugs of 
Living beings fills 
All of them animates. 

Our comrades you are,
Our benefactors, 
Companions in...

Although an angle in radians
seems a trivial quantity
compared to its degree equivalent,
it exceeds degrees in its elegance.

A tolerant, uncomplaining denominator
gracefully balances a weightless platform
on its invisible head,
while two abstract concrete pillars
point to the critical points
of a single cycle of a periodic function....

When the Moon fell in love with the night,
Her luminous knight held her ebony hand,
And the Earth twirled with the day out of sight

She wears a crown of constellations, a breath-taking sight,
And as mere mortals sleep, the nocturnal take stand,
When the Moon fell in love...

Driven by a growing angling fad
The jolly fisherman took a fishing rod
And walked onto the nearby stream
As the sun rose from the mountain seam

He had in mind the swimming Trout
With rising hope and speeding steps, he set out
Sat on a rock and swished the rod...

Did You Learn Anything?

Go ahead.
Put your shoes on.
Walk outside and face the nervous day.
Know that your lungs will not resist you.
Know that your heart will still stir.
Put the key in the ignition.
Now turn the crank.

You are back there now.
As if in a dream so ordered....
