Best Winning Poems

WINNING THE WAR 

In tough action of war crawls the soldier
across the thorny ground riddled with mine,
charges with loaded gun on the shoulder,
revenge and rage in mind sorely combine.

Facing risk of dying any instant
flash of the face of his little daughter
he sees smile in his...

Life can mimic a game of chance
It can be grand or awfully bland
Take your stance with a joyful glance
Go ahead and reveal your plans
Smile if you have a winning hand.

In eternity past, God would ordain
a place to which Satan would appertain.
Darkness ruled in this void and vile domain 
wherein grief, grudges and greed were germane;
addicted to force, would Lucifer wane?

Outright rebellion goes against God’s grain, 
His plan called for a selfless Savior slain.
Demons tried...

Kids do not understand how losing works 
perhaps they don't know what endeavor means.
Some coaches play around with youngsters' minds
by setting goals which cannot be achieved.

While winning is important it is true
does winning mean one never needs to lose?

Such thinking sets a child at odds...

I am 
A daydreamer
I talk in my sleep
I finish drinking
Before I'll eat

I love others
But hate how they act
I'm a childish mother
With just enough tact

I'll die a rebel
It's in my veins
harmless trouble
Keeps me sain

Morbid thoughts
Keep me spooked
I protect my ears
From Harsh truths

I loathe politics
I don't vote
No...

To love something or someone so much comes with a lot of happiness and pain

It comes with a lot of happiness because you finally feel like you have a worth. You have to fight for. You have something to believe in….

But it comes with pain...

A blank page is
An opportunity
A fresh start
A challenge

A new pen Is
full of itself
Ready to show off 
Ready to dance

A writer is
Eager to begin
Excited about all kinds of things other people may miss
Enthusiastic about the little things

A muse is
Imagination on speed 
Thrilled to be asked
Willing to...

Just need two under par 
I've mastered this shot
and my partners will lose.

One is my only son,
and a friend from college.
Fond memory's my muse.

Soar among the Eagles!
I'll let my soul sing,
their spirits to bolster.

I let loose measured stroke.
My eagle's in flight
soaring t'wards a...

If I won the lottery today,
I would shout "Hip, hip, hooray!"
It would be a miracle, no doubt,
If it really came about,
As I've not bought a ticket to play.

If you're out on the town
Your date gives you a frown
'Cuz you smiled at the fellow
But your teeth were all yellow

Don't you wait one more night
Go and grab some "Crest Whites"
Makes your teeth white and clean
So your smile can be seen

Don't embarrass yourself
It's now on...

Harsh words impugn if slung in hate
and rip apart a calloused heart.
Expressed regret cannot abate
the pain that permeates our slate.

It's best to stop and take apart
the wagon which has run amuck.
Affix new wheels upon the cart
then shove ahead to a fresh start.

Deep in the mire,...

Winning the Lottery

Yes, I dream of winning the Lottery,
Hitting the jackpot on a Saturday night.
Oh, it’s so wonderful to imagine,
So, I cross my fingers and hold them tight.

Our George bemoans his bad luck,
All these years, not even a Tenner.
He told me that a couple from...

Eh, pal what are your chances of winning?
Ah, you could have banked all this saving
for an early retirement...
to cherish that sentiment!
When you're completely broke, start cringing!...
