Best Upright Poems

Dare to bear all
That fling of gall
That sudden fall


Dare to live well
Bear storm and hell
Live what life spells


Dare to be wise
Pay then the price
Rise beyond vice


Dare to be good
In any mood
Love beyond food


Dare to be true
In any cue
Then pay your dues


Dare to be kind
In all...

As sun slowly climbs,
   so is my wish to leave
      this bed of agony.
In shadows dust gathers
   on rims, wheels,
      between unwebbed toes motionless.
Water flows in one direction,
   thoughts...

A man should be upright, not be kept upright
The guiltless heart is the essence of life upright
The mark of a wise and upright man is just fight...

In the twilight
of his life
my father, erudite
said to me

Beware the praise singer
strangers who linger
the beggar, the liar
the lottery bookmaker

Son, he said again
watch travelers at dawn
those seeking gain
avoid the late comer

My father said to me
this is the key
my son, upright
this is your cue...

The Lord God shines like the sun
amidst the beautiful bright blue sky
the Psalmist strikes a lyrical chord
brings divine favour with splendour on high

My swollen heart crumbles when I see you
Flakes gather in the pit of my stomach
Thoughts of you yesterday as I approach  
Mangle my mind, aftershock of things new
Needles niggle my brain, too bad, too true
I look at you and smile and all the time
“What...

Stay Upright

Snowman stood on his big round head
because he had a snowy bed.
He had no socks for his toes
that is why they up and froze
they became frost bitten and red.

Limit the Drinking 

Mister Snowman drank too much it was said. 
He ended up in the...

Upright and Not Inscrutable
By Franklin Price
9/20/2015

Upright and not inscrutable
Always Constitutional
Never running for an office just for me
Looking out for my constituents
In your best interests are my intents
However else would you think that I could be

Always standing for you here I am
For you my finger's in...

three bullets went into the bubbling chest   the assassins
had come  when she was alone     with scars
on wings she sailed on voices of silence   the melody
had kissed the moon in night without veil...

No day have I ever work with the clock,
Come sun; come moon to running time's relay...
There- my upright stand rests on solid rock.

While sun shines; upon my sweats, my hands knock...
Wealth's door at health's risk- foot bills I delay.
No day have I ever work with...

Swift stream


Glimpse grand
Fine friend
Taste trend

Gliding gracefully, “G” came into my life.
Tall, lean, studious, specky guy.
His attitude was just too high!
He would never look eye to eye.
In a few months, we were cutie pies.
He told me, “He likes me, though he took time to realise.”
Pretending to be modest, “Doesn’t that...

If I love you, I love from the core of my heart.
If I hate, still it's from the core of my heart.
You need help, my efforts are from the core of my heart.
You out smart me, my revenge is from the core of my heart....
