Best Watchfully Poems

In the midst of my sweet childhood days
I came across a gorgeous machine.
It was known by different names
But I called it my time machine.

A big roar, heard in the beginning
When I watchfully switched it to life.
I was in the middle of a battle
Fought around a...

She searches the closets door to door trying to find a trace or a hint of something that is or that was of her life. All she found was cobwebs of dreams shattered and gone invisible by the hands of time. Broken is her heart,...

ABANDONED SNEAKERS IN THE STREETS

As we walked watchfully along the way,
a pair of sneakers lay silently in the streets;
abandoned by flight or neglect.  Their soles
have lost their occupant: gone to who knows where.

We cannot know the life they once shared; 
for there are no...

Time passes…
And things are left with no traces—
Be it a dream confusion in a cold forgetful night,
Sneaking and trespassing on an ancient boyish fright,
Or an old man mourning the pride
Of a brightly hidden straightforward sight?

You don’t know! Perhaps you taught yourself how to know— 
To...

Indigenous forest so awash with trees.
Leaves strum a tune in the cool Autumn breeze.
Rustling rowans and galloping ash.
A rustic blanket for a well trodden path.

Plum tinged foliage,fleet of foot in the dance.
Melancholy movements has me in a trance.
Woodland dance floor with pine-needle skin.
Acorns descend hit...

Dark falls and savagery creeps watchfully like a royal tiger stalking its prey
Deceiving its unsuspecting victims
Put under a spell by its glowing, powerful eyes 

A soft soul
Sparkling eyes full of intent and wisdom
The true nucleus of eternal goodness 

Honey-coloured beams of light flow fluid around...

The wolf and the moon had a covenant
To meet whenever the sky is bright at night
There the moon exposes her radiant light
While the wolf howls, watchfully jubilant.

Constantly they meet for life-news’ sharing
Each is expectant, never late…
With delight, the wolf gives detailed update
And the moon glows…...

Both were pets at home—
The cute parrot and the black cat.
We loved both—almost equally.
They too loved us beyond measure,
But didn’t at all like each other.
Each thought that the other was
One too many!
We did not encage Cutie.
Thought it a sin.
But that was all our sin—
As it...

Allow my wisdom to assert warnings along historical authenticity
Bringing the truth, “In the beginning God created…”* with perfect beauty
Championing supreme sovereign control over mankind’s creativity
Driving the need for people to fulfill their foremost directed duty…

Exposed toward Adam and Eve along their impact for eternity
Faith of...

Bird in a Cage

A small, gloriously yellow bird ended up trapped in a cage
Each day the confines grew more and more like home
Constraints seemed familiar
Lost were the thoughts of flying free and open space
Dreams grew dimmer and dimmer
Of exploration and of choice
Food came easily
No need...

Playing with the kittens
Full of scratches I was gettin

Sitting in the apple tree for hours
Dreaming of how God chose the colors of the sky 
Watchfully gazing
As the clouds passed by

Long walks on the farm with dad
Training the beagles 
But what I loved the most
Talks on...

From the crystals’ broken of lights
Or dead link-the souls’ marines 
By machine pip-out targeting apical  
Snares by the roads — 
Through of demolishing the tools that		
Throve flats up for peace  . . . 
It took the leash by the saw
The gloss of the...

A powerful hunter, of varied species

Watchfully gazing, they perch on high

Eyesight of excellence, strong hooked beak

Awaiting your prey, vultures, a splendid relation

Incredible wingspan, as they take flight

Found near water, perched on feathered legs

Fish a-plenty, hunting ground

Boot, harpy, snake, fish and sea

Of four divisions so they...

He looked down and found me tarnished and worn.
   He reached down and gathered me in.
He polished and cleaned, brought forth a new me,
   and He even forgave my sin.
He gave me a heart that yearns just for Him,

A SUMMER WALK
Dr. Jim Martin

Leaving one morning for a predawn walk,
Accompanied by no one with whom to talk.
I quickly observe the stillness in the air,
And pause to enjoy the coolness everywhere.

I briskly walk, lost in my thought,
Debating in my head those chores I had fought.
“Relaxing...
