Careful Poems

Careful Not To Err

Time running out
Pack and hurry
Time to go home.

Don't waste your time
It's just borrowed
Make most of it.

No room for err
If your pilot
Lives in your hands.

If priest do err
More souls will gone
Destined to hell.

Up, Down And Careful

Going up is hard
Going down is too easy
Careful as can be.

Of Friends, Be Careful

OF FRIENDS, BE CAREFUL.

So many have been destroyed by those they called friends with a free spirit and an open mind,
For he that would destroy you the fastest is he that is cherished by you and close to your side.
Around those we term foes, we're alert, but with friends, we tend to leave our vigilance

Bee Careful

Stop and smell the roses 
but be careful
for you may get stung. 
For those bees 
are not known for their taste 
so you could be the unlucky one.

Careful

Good things has price
Good face treat not 
To be careless.

Careful Flirt

If you flirt men
Keep your bones flexed
Careful next time.

Careful With All Words

Be careful,  respectful
with all words...

they can be just as vital to a poem --
don't let commentaries too far-a-field
roam -- 

stay focused, and on topic -- 
sometimes good to be myopic.
--------------------------------------

Take criticism with grace,

don't let praise put your head
in outer space -- 

besides entertaining,
thoughtful poetry can be a righteous 
rod and staff...

but don't feel need

Be Careful Daughter

 

Waves are crashing on a white sandy shore,
as sea gulls drift, float over waves then soar;
I touch the cool aquamarine water ... 
my mother's whisper, "be careful daughter. "

Seeds of Love

Seeds of Love,
Carelessly planted,
Means you take,
Sanguine Heart for
Granted.

Sow them well, 
One by one,
Each time you’re
Through.
Look what 
you’ve done.

If plans 
Go Awry,
(Sigh)
Let the seedlings 
Quickly Die…

For if you Plant,
On barren soil
A piece of your Heart
Will Surely Spoil.

And the Life You knew
Will Continue,
Though stained
With The First 
Regret.

You have to Be Careful with Magic

You have to be careful with magic her mother told Mixy Mix.
How careful could she be? She was a child, two days past six.
Mixy was enthusiastic about her fabulific magic spells for sure.

When her wand comes

dreams/and or visions--seem to have one common thread.  Referring backwards

Be Careful of Skirt and Shirt

in wheel missing cog
Trump had been an under dog
brain like lump on log

never will want here
hope that he does disappear
part of a bum steer

could tell by the thunder
a bus Trump was caught under
one more big blunder

will commit a crime
Trump never has been on time
did write a poor rhyme


Trump had day in court
missed paying his child

Be Careful What You Wish For

Stealing fire from the gods
Prometheus would yearn
And pass it off to humankind
whose banishment interred

Their feet into the glowing coals 
but faith out from the dark
Enlightenment a powder keg
—uncareful wishing sparks

Gently, Gently, Be Careful Where You Tread

As he looks at all the stuff
that‘s stored inside his head
he marvels at how randomly it’s all been packed away
“Gently, gently, be careful where you tread”
he reminds himself to move about with care  
although he’s been up there many times before
and knows his way around
there are some dodgy places up there on his attic
