Best Wander Poems
I Wander the Desert AloneAimlessly I meander in expansive barren-landscape
Whipped by the assault of rustling windy gales
Embossing sandy designs resembling ocean waves
Simulating pools of water in mirage of seascapes.
Plateaus upon reddish hills reveal cracked earth
Where decaying mangled-trees in rising heat groan
As cobalt-blue sky yields to darkened dye of dusk
And...

Wander-FullWide, this grand world, with occurrences, rife
On the foam-capped blue, for a seafarer's life
Rich, the adventurer's sojourns shall be ...
Launching deep dreams on a mutable sea.
Daring, the soul who can take to the sky
Cast off the weights of this marble and fly
Rending mundane for the...

a supple spine in a wanting curve

I Wander AboutI wander about
like a fish out of water
in the surf blue sea
Me a traveler
in the congress of gray rocks
where carcajous howl
A vacant lot mind
wavered in the breeze empty
land soul never rests
Heart sighs seeks haven
warm breasts of the beloved
in my country home
I see the river
boatmen singing...

I Wander These Winter Beachesi wander these winter beaches
where autumn's storms
have removed the footfalls of summer
believing in spring
here i am alone listening
to the waves mellifluously remind
yet never recalling
floating the river Lethe
alone where the frigates soar above
pelicans traversing the waves
the terns work the receding water
i am the intruder
waves erasing...

Never Shall My Heart WanderTomorrow will come and I shall remember your smile
Where the stars set so fine on an evening so worthwhile
Sweet sounds of voices lingering soft and free
With the strains of his hair he had eyes of the sea
He told me tales and rested my head...

I Wander the Desert AloneI walk in this barren desert alone
I can taste the sand in my mouth
Thirst increases for water and love
I crave the oasis that I imagine
Hoping to find it, with you there
The open land is dry and hot
I can’t find shade to hide in
What I escaped,...

I Wander the Desert AloneIn search for riches, in search for fame,
In search for glory, to wipe out my shame,
In search for a sit in the hall of fame,
To eliminate the suffering standing on my name.
In search for silver, in search for gold,
In search for diamond that makes a...

In Wonder I Wander
As from my ivory place, in a while I descend
Carrying a piece of magic and a trace of scent
Quite a time of quietude there I spent
A delight, a light, I have to suspend.
The poet in me yields to live and bond
As I find in mere...

Under the weight of your words, I wander through their shadowUnder the weight of your words, I wander through their shadow,
Hunted by mystery, torn into pieces, then enriched in a secret dawn.
Suddenly alone and embraced, I sway between two worlds,
A pilgrim in tears, bowing in the echo of your divine voice.
I wish you could see...

Not All Those Who Wander Are LostIt may be hard to find me, see, because
My journey never stops - I only pause
at places you could hardly dream to quest
without imagination at its best.

When I WanderWhen I wander
I do so without direction
Hoping to encounter a path
On which I will be protected
And stumbling onto gravel
I realize that the world is not smooth,
Rather jagged
I hope these shoes shield me
From the truth that is toothed...

Villanelle:Wander Not Into a Land Where the Indigene's IndolentVillanelle: Wander not into a land where the indigene’s indolent
Wander not into a land where the indigene’s indolent
Likely as not the country will be run by interlopers
Open-heartedness is often a cover for self-bemusement
The first signs crop up when lax morals make him relent
Shuts an eye...

Cain's Exile of Inherent BeingnessMark
The earth turns its face from you
as if ashamed. You
who tilled the soil, now marked
by what the soil received.
Your brother's blood—
how it murmurs, how it screams.
Deafness would be a mercy.
Wanderer
At Babel, you watch them build
their tongues a discordance of hope.
You know better.
The tower falls. Always,...
