Best Yoke Poems

I seek a place that leaves no trace
Of venomous blood and tainted heart
I seek a place that holds only grace
Of righteous hearts and caring thoughts
I seek a place that broods not on hate
But of a tranquilized soul and an intellectual eye
I seek a place that...

Ideas to change my mind
Attempts to chain my mind
There’s a wild horse inside
Roaming the shrinking prairie
Whose voice does it heed?
What advice does it need?
To tame it is to break it
To put it to good use is
To put it in a yoke
Shake it off, throw it...

Hope tenuously hovers over our wounded world
Usurped of compassion, greed is gaining control
Mankind no longer respects the gift of human life
Apathy runs rampant when overdosed on delusions
Natural affection for our neighbors no longer exists
Ignoring the maladies is a threat to the human race
Tethered to tyranny...

As Treasures of heart
Deep within the midst
Of Love... 

As time passed by
Tis man.. whom
Came within my life..
Sweet as can be..

Words to behold..
Such Loving ways..
But tis as I have found
Not tis same.. Faith..

His faith tis quite different 
Than what I bestow...
He believes Jesus was just a...

My sweetheart, you work like two keys
unlocking my shy tendencies.
Like a chess piece, your presence frees
me from myself – worst enemies. 
Your strength brings to mind young oak trees.

Your notches and grooves satisfy
need for attention, you supply.
Then securing our doors whereby
my reluctance you rectify.

On life’s...

At the bottom of the ocean lived a blind turtle. Believed only to surface once every one hundred years. Floating above it upon the vast Ocean was a golden yoke, blown by the currents and the wind, an opportunity for the turtle surfacing at just...

You can beat me up,
Send me to Malaysia for treatment,
I was on business, I will tell them
When I am back,
Business is good.

I have soldiers living
In my dining room,
Roaming my garden
Peeing in my swimming pool,
You placed them there,
The courts cannot take them out.

You walked out on...

I received so many wonderful gifts
I'm thankful and oh so grateful
I had a good amount of uplifting lifts
Life is so abundant and beautiful 

Spill it all to the floor some more
I heard you shut the front door
You cry victim - it amazes me
Lights grow dim...

of cause and effect
and disastrous 
choices
I came to regret....

In the shadows of the night,
I feel Satan's yoke, so tight,
His grip upon my soul,
Is a weight I cannot control.

I am lost in his embrace,
My heart and mind, he does encase,
I am but a pawn in his game,
A victim to his fiery flame.

I am consumed...

The Oil Soft Yoke

Alas, the contest sponsors do expound
on how to sail your craft, and where it’s bound
thus must the muse-less vessels get in line
wander straight and never serpentine

for hearts are frail and distant widows peak
still hear cold vagrant cries of those who seek
a passage...

Begone Yoke!

Why abusing the brightly future leaders?
Okay, aren't they human, I ask?
Are they culpable, and not mild?

Or why imposing upon their innocence?
And purposes and value to bask?
Whether not belong to this world?

Again, do they not deserve rights?
What? Their divine aspirations to mask?
Once again, can't they...

With my coming to Italy this summer of 2008
I’ve had the chance to reconnect with some friends;
Despite the looming weak dollar values in the market,
it has drawn me to fly and pick up my Italian so far.

  The hot spells and overcrowded Milan Central...

JUST TO INCOMPATIBLE
NOT ON THE SAME PAGE
VIEWS ARE MUCH DIFFERENT
VALUES AREN'T THE SAME
NOT EQUAL AS CAN BE
THE SUNRISES TO LIGHT
FROM THE DARK SKIES AT NIGHT
ALMIGHTY TO GOD, WITH CONTINUE IN PRAYERS
THE VALLEYS ARE STEEP, THE TIMES SPENT
WEAKENED AS STRENGTHEN ABROAD
PRAYERS EACH MOMENT THROUGH IT ALL
GRACE...
