Best Wipe The Slate Clean Poems


Premium Member Without Intent
To the ones I love in this world
There is something l need to share
We all unknowingly in life have caused hurt
Totally oblivious and unaware

So, If I have ever done you wrong
And did not realise
Please forgive me 
I am here to apologise

I am sorry if I...

What should I write about?

Truth, that is all!

But there is mine,
yours...

and then His of course:

compassion
unbending--
forgiving
unending--

though we are inclined
to weakly compromise;
change only when 
uncomfortably pressed;
(having tilted, after being lavishly blessed)
wipe the slate clean
reluctantly, for forced
by self-created 
negative circumstance
to heavily lean--

His love is faithful
regardless our fault,

Divine Witness

President Donald Trump


The voting was done,
     and Donald Trump won.
So many are glad,
     yet quite a few mad.
Voters have spoken...
     fix what is broken,
and wipe the slate clean
     though...

Premium Member Something Came In the Night
Deep in the night, in the well of my dreams
I'm here all alone,  and the silence is long...
I'm engulfed by old songs and memories of 
the life never lived, the words never said, 
the fears that grow strong, 
the things I might dread,
and the...

One of the oldest from of advertising the  world has ever seen
Based on reputation of a person, either good or bad
It can be kind of slow or right threw a town like wildfire
Put one out of business or wipe the slate clean
Be the best...

Lineage
Never forsake the lineage in which we
originated from because
the ancestors are watching us
Their eyes are on the sparrow
anticipating us to soar into
our excellence 
Wash ourselves in their royalty
while remembering they were 
kings and queens long before
they became slaves and strange fruit
Society wants to wipe the...

The Road
Trust in me and hold my hand
We'll travel north to a distant land
I discovered a map, faded and old
To a land where its neither to hot nor too cold

Its better, I heard, to travel in two's
The journey is long but won't damage our shoes
Its known...

Premium Member Blank Slate
Times were hard – that is what they said
When they told me about their early years - 
before I was there, their son
Filled with the hunger of youth, the lust
For life, passion – the truth

Times were not easy – and I could tell
Life had been...

Extrication
i’m talkin’ to you through a screen, it hurts that i can’t touch you, 
too much space in between, i wish i had a time machine, 
not to pick **** up where we left off, just to wipe our slate clean, 
if only i could...

Doom
Fake hearts,
Beware what you dream,
In this world,
Full of schemes,
It's hard to redeem,

Horror filled screams,
At nightmare scenes,
Painted with a maniac's brush,
Too late to wipe the slate clean.

Downward spirals,
Tail spinning to doom.
Camera angles,
Picture perfect,
To give your face,
That high-def zoom.

So that looky loos,
Better off than you
Can be home...

Is This Poetry
is this poetry?

ee cummings

darnit

they had time

to think of metaphor, allegory, imagery, rhythm, rhyme meter

I don't have time

this is poetry

of the apocalypse

poetry of the end

I don't have the time

lost at the end of time

at the end of property

wherefore art thou time

wherefore art tho anything

everything is going

therefore...

The purge started with honest appraisal.
A deep peer within to unlock the knots
    tying 'never too open' lockets shut.
There were regrets, fall-shorts, damning selfies
    all to be opened with tear drops and fears,
    exposing the scars,...

If Only I Could
If only I could go back in time, 
I'd go back to my prime years,
I'd correct my wrongs,
I'd wipe the slate clean.

If only I could journey into my mind,
I'd permute my thoughts,
I'd sieve out the unwanted,
I'd cocoon my thoughts from the assailants.

If only I could...

Pray tell how you feel you have done
Since we made you Head of Progressment
