Best Undefiled Poems
The Apple of My EyeThe apple of my eye is a one for
An Amazon of an all in one
Being sourced from the Almighty’s Blessings
A paradox in discovery by Spiritual vision
Unsearchable among the highs and lows
As more precious than earthly
A glorious heritage with more respect for the reward
You are...

The People WatcherSee the people watcher
Still as a mantis
Endless ambient sounds, unidentifiable
Does not prevent his gaze
He studies her eyes; her smile
And undresses her mind
The watcher finds himself
Transfigured
Her thoughts are not easily uncovered
A coffin, sealed; undefiled
The watcher will only find him,
Looking out as he looks in...

Sotto VoceSotto voce a whisper sweet
if by chance we should come to meet
down in the valley where flowers bloom
shall we enter a two way street?
And if by chance this journey's fleet
with passion's effloresce complete
becomes our season's hope renew, ...

Distilled PurityOne has to like the price,
which never fluctuates.
It floats,
like some suspended orb
imparted from another heaven, perhaps...
itself a consciousness unknown
and undefiled.
It is the good the ages seek,
still there before our eyes.
Were there a formula,
a prize to touch or taste,
it would not occupy the metaphor
of grace...

ParadisePleasurable haven,
Providing beauty and
Perpetual peace with
Purity undefiled.
Perfection unsurpassed.
Poesy lives here and
Permeates ev'ry heart.

Face to Face with TimeI came face to face with time
It was all sublime.
Nothing was as it seemed
For I thought “surely it must have been dreamed.”
I was shown the past, present, and future.
Then I heard the words, “are you ready for an adventure?”
As I stood there looking into the...

Lonely Island ParadiseI see the waves as they roll on the shore
With palm trees whistling the songs I adore
Sand like feather under my feet
And the grapes on the wines oh so sweet
The shore goes on for about a mile
Everything is beautiful and undefiled
All the flowers smell so...

Grandmother's Name and MineWhat name is there to better lift one’s heart?
The name assigned to an innocent child!
By love, given to set the babe apart,
When life begins anew, fresh, undefiled.
We come seeking my name; understanding.
I bring cool waters to a weary soul.
I wash the feet of travelers in...

HuntedWe are being Hunted!
Our sons,
More than our daughters
Our mothers,
Less than our fathers
By the hunters,
We've been made into a sport,
at their discretion,
Not served with protection,
But, sent
Straight to the grave,
By Black & White transport.
We stand at their command.
We stop.
We drop.
We comply.
We die.
Still...
Hunted....
& Endangered....
Not safe,
Living in...

Festival of LightsHANUKKAH
Festival of Lights/ Feast of Dedication,
As a kid, Hanukkah
was the Jewish replacement for Christmas,
But even better!
We celebrated for eight nights,
Which meant eight presents!
It was the festival of lights
We ate latkes or potato pancakes,
We Played with spinning tops called driedels
Sang the driedel song
Opened one present...

The Duchess of ParadiseShe's highly sophisticated and full of undefiled wisdom
Yet a crowned Duchess in a paradise kingdom
Quite a beautiful angel flying with black wings
Covered in gold jewelry and precious things
She dresses like the women of ancient Egyptian class
Her wealth is generous and her money grows like grass
She...

My SonFar away in the West,
Far far away from my cuddles and caresses,
Lives my son,
Where rapid is the rise of the sun, where the sun is remiss to rest.
Where he is surmounting over all tides and tempest, searing snares and savoring success.
Where the winds herald...

If Only My Grandmother a ManIf my grandmother was a man,
She could have been the Goliath of the East
Her barns of yam could have been the largest
In the community with her tubers as tall as
The Iroko tree- the king tree of the forest.
If my grandmother was a man,
She could have...
