Best Wins Poems

A man could never love a woman more 
And to see her hurting rocks him to the core
But through the pain she finds her smile 
Oh, the beauty of her face
Like a warm, intimate embrace 
Charming him is just her style
She is his life
His amazing...

Charley has taken his class hostage; he is seven.
His classmates are terrified of his out-of-control behaviors.
There is a perpetual glare on his face, he seems angry always.
He snarls and growls, sneers, and prowls around as they try
to do their work.  His work is on...

When it is time to silver sleep
I find if he isn't next to me
I get a little less pink peace
And chose a little anxiety

I say chose because instead
Of dreaming he is in my blue bed
I fret and pout within my hazel head
Knowing it's a sin...

The demon always wins.
You love thus you live.
You fly until death,
then the demon has fun.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely
Your fun is forever gone.
As if before was a fargone memory,
Now your curse has continued on.

Demon has taken my heart,
tearing my soul apart.
If it were an art,
then...

I am...

Stranded on the road, closed up tight in her shell
Too frightened to head out of the heavy traffic
I took the turtle home to make sure all was well.
 She was hungry for she hadn’t eaten since a day
So I dug up four juicy earthworms and...

There is no greater feeling than to be alive and free

Spending our lives on God's green earth

Reveling in the warmth of yet another sun filled day

The rainy days are sent to us only to remind us

How much we appreciate dear old Mr. Sol

It's what keeps...

Surrendering innocence;
lust acquiesces to sin.
And fuels fledgling feelings;
convinced love will always win.

You revel in the pleasures
inflated egos conceive.
Yet, wooed by convincing lies,
you find emotions deceive.

And it hurts to play the dunce;
watching your dreams fall apart.
But it is not the first time
sadness has broken your heart.

Somewhere...

I am the earth to your ocean
The shore that you seek
Your tides are a sweet carress
Urging me to breathe

Winds carry you to me
Both softly and rushing in
There is no resistance to you
The inevitable always wins

All lifeforms are
merely temporary
inhabitants of
planet Earth.
Man's time a
millisecond hidden
in the vastness of
space
Yet  innocents still
suffer needlessly
again and again
In war; No One Wins....

Yankees twenty- seven times
maybe some of them were crimes

Cardinals won eleven
taking their fans to heaven

and the Red Sox won eight
I do appreciate

a few teams tied with five
keeping the love alive...

Winning millions, Fred acted insane,
Raced his new Benz and crashed in the rain.
All that money he won
Went for surgeries done
To repair both his body and brain!

We emigrated from England to Rhodesia, I was just 
Seven when I began grade two,
My wonderful father always there if I wanted a 
Cuddle or a good old boo-hoo,
My English still rocky as I was mostly 
Greek speaking,
When I came home with a story of...

Strong, gladiator,
Thine blade is sharp also swift.
Thou fight for honor, glory.
For thine, love of heart.
Back and forth thee thrusts are keen.
Ye stand so bravely with brass.
Await opponents.
Scarcely; they approach, knowing,
Their fate of death from thine sword,
Though they know, quickly,
Thy; shall place your victory.
Among the past...

There once was a branding woman that worked on a ranch
She ran through woods looking behind every branch
Frantic to find a tolerant male to arrange wedding plans
Her methods guaranteed producing orangutang comedians
Also, her cranky, exuberant life made the ranchers blanch

Grandmother arranged a meeting to hear...
