Best Vessel Poems

Misinformed as ever was,
  as sad as sad can be,
for no one cared or dared to love
  a creature such as she.
Time rolls past and in its’ dust
  she wonders where it’s gone,
left standing still with faded eyes,
  a vessel dreaming...

This weathering vessel that casts about
A barge adrift in the river of lies.
My crumbling ship, my hopes all cast in doubt
I navigate past cults of crying eyes.

This rusting old tanker betrays my flame
My boy joy driving fervent flaring glare.
I’m no match for terror by any...

My voice is a hollow vessel
where words spiral down 
into a whirling dust storm
and exit dirty and unwanted
as if riding on the hooks
of some God-forsaken 120 degree desert.

No specific value has ever been
assigned to the words
that stick in my throat
and always leave like
a mumbled mishmash-
a...

That's not your father lying there.
That's simply a temporary vessel from the Lord, a spare.

His soul is in Heaven with his lovely wife.
He's no longer in pain in this worldly life.

He's risen to Heaven to be with our Father.
His blindness and weakness no longer a...

I wish I were empty, 
I could easily be filled with that which is from God. 
Yet I have been filled with the things of this world.

Pour out my Self, 
fill me with the Spirit, 
the good gifts from God.

I am but a vessel,
that which...

I was once a beautiful vessel
Brimming with wine at the king's table
Uniquely made 
A vessel of inestimable value
Admired by the guest who eat from the king's table

One day the king found another vessel
I was no where to be found around the king's table
The king's guest...

God preordained  vessels for His design
before time and eternity so long ago
that He would use to suit His purpose
to do His will particularly in close align

These vessels would be earth bound people
one’s chosen in God’s sovereign plan
to carry out His words upon the earth
across...

The body is the vessel of the Soul,
the Soul is not the vassal of the body,
the Soul is the vassal of the Almighty...

Blind like a ghost you cannot see,
oblivious to their surroundings
until it smacks them in the face.

The heartbeat of a soulmate connects
to the beating vessel we call love,
two hearts beat as one excited to embark on a journey leading them to a place they never knew...

14:Passages plot themselves on maps
To get you somewhere.
Pour your soul into a hollow vessel
For the archaeologist to find.
To replicate each moment’s sound
Will never bring satisfaction
perhaps exaggerate boredom
Definitely annoy reactions
Because the vessel's form is unnecessary
There is no catch-all for past rains....

This boat is full,
A vessel overflowing.
In darkness people talk.
A child is crying.

I close my eyes,
Lock out the world.
I envision drab gloom
As sunlight on my begging husk;
The damp frazzles
As lightweight trunks
Around my gaunt calves.

We left, so many nights ago,
I lost count, it doesn't matter.
Deferment of death.
I...

Drunken are sailors
Three loose sheets in the 
wind
The fourth in the wind
The vessel spick-and-
span new
Moves in a uncontrolled 
way....

The Earthen Vessel

Why the Lord has chosen earthen vessels
is still a mystery to me, 
the Glory of the Lord descending upon them
all because of the work on Calvary.

But an earthen pot is so unstable
till His Spirit abides within, 
able to strengthen us because of our...

With Jesus in my vessel
I will smile at the storm
         smile at the storm

With Jesus in my vessel
I will smile at the storm
         will swim to sailing home......
