Construction Poems | Examples

Over active dem ladies

When appearing in public as Droopy sad vote needy it just
 crumbles just as the millions of others.
Left with a guilty dialogue to chase? Please yourself
 and don't for once, your a grown up, you can don't know too.

Please visit Ventura and thousand oaks cities guys.
 Bring your spine it has a home here it's missing

Get to work
Make nother talking history hiding

Oopsy building down?
Elected by majority of population, sad?

A Guide to Flagging and Traffic Control Near the End of Construction Season

For Angela Voras- Hills


As work inches along the highway you’ll
be standing next to a field the breeze a song only
you’ll hear as it whispers but you remember
life’s a song your life a collage of all the
experiences your heart holds such joy
to behold as the season passes as the
passing sun bleeds into the sky as the days
slip from your hands but that’s the way it goes
as your hold your sign as moments go by
and a voice in your head says it is so
now an open road as a car rushes by fast.


You’ll only remember the joy the days go by so fast.
a line from a poem by Angela Voras-Hills.

Under Construction

My mind, body and spirit are under construction right now. The only people allowed to trespass is myself, me, and I, the worker of self. Only I am qualified to get this job done.


Premium Member Construction and Destruction

Construction and 

Destruction..

No separation 

No between..

It's not knowing

What seems as

Knowing of the

Arising and disappearing

In sequence with elation 

And despair...

Premium Member Ode to unpaid labor

Ode to unpaid labor

The Curse


May your mind reset , so you can see others like they really are. Unique complexes units

May your anger turn into a passion, an unstoppable  creative power

May your heart realize the real necessity of people. The comunication and living.

May your ideas go so deeply in your life you destroy the commom sense of reality.

May your soul be able to read the paralel universe  of creation and discovering in the time of an eyes blink.

May we can create together


Premium Member Structured Construction

It’s about to explode, ready set..
there’s such stability in chaos;
So wild the part of you that’s free;

Atomic part of you blown free  
takes root and slowly starts to set;
Careful the construction of chaos;

Discounting the structure in chaos,
naive to that serving core of ‘Free’;
Supernovas have an unstable set;

Just let go and set the chaos free.

Premium Member Road construction

Every road is closed 
backtracking to find a way 
to my parents house

Premium Member Death's Construction

The fate of man is well renown

And as our future tumbles down

We the ones that time soon will cast

Are left with memories of the past

Those guilty of death's construction

Orchestrate our mass destruction 

So here we sit and wonder why

As all our hopes and dreams pass by

Now That We Are Here

A coworker and I stand
along a lone Nebraska highway
far from home.

I stand on one end
of a work zone-
a co-worker stands
on the other

communication by walkie talkie
to direct traffic 
as it comes and goes.

A road that’s broken
must be made whole
as life bubbles forth
from underground streams
in an unfamiliar place.

Work inches forward
until the sun bleeds
into the sky

when night conversations
friendships are sought
in each other
as we ponder 
our time and place
and a light in the parking lot
shines like the moon.

Premium Member To Build a Special Roof For You

(My late father was a construction worker.Remember him on Father's Day.)
The construction workers with
Sweating foreheads
Dry throats
Burning skins 
Blinding eyes
Struggle to build 
An air-conditioned roof 
Under the sun
For you and especially for you
While themselves 
Working at a place
Without a fan or an air conditioner
But under a burning sun
Hanging from a roof called the sky

Premium Member Woodpecker Construction

construction again
     woodpecker found the metal

Maturity Construction

the personification of maturity
that gradually takes shape
obeys the rite of ancestral paradigms
it was already anger, rebellion and hate
as if the fact of avoiding the sun
stop him from meeting it's fate
every caterpillar on the flower sleeps worm
and wake up butterfly
and going back is impossible
see the dark squall that floods the land
and then paint it green
contrasting with the blue sky
or the volcano that explodes into lava
which later leaves the soil fertile
I seriously looked back
and gave up reproaching my own way:
were the difficult and emblematic moments
those who built the human being that I am today

The Construction Song

Where is humanity driving us today?
Which couple is trying to invest in housing to stay?
With spaces and places hiking in price,
Mankind suffers in swathing High-rise fries!
We toil day and night – to get some dough in our kitty
We could manage our hunger to make sure nobody will later pity,
We save hard to make better our each day
And spend in thrift – So that no one could ever say,
That we try to live above our reach….
Allowing just about everyone to come and preach
That every brick we put into our home, 
Carries the sweat we shed, upon building  that pretty dome
That we call “Dream” and strive to make things work for us
But Dreams are what we yearn to believe without a fuss,
So don’t make them a song and dance
Life is too short to keep up such a trance
Work hard to make a lot of money,
While time flies, you gotta build a house for yourself honey,
That will stand the tests of time for you
And for everyone in your family too!
