Daily Life Poems - Poems about Daily Life

I don’t tell you what I think What drives me mad and to the brink: Annoying people, noise and trash And total strangers who are brash Gold-digging women, joke that’s bad And lack of money, latest fad The losing team, increase in tolls Plan for the country full of holes Inflation, markets, kids who’re rude My job is where I’m being screwed Potholes, education boards Retirement...

“This is a familiar route and one of the most common ones (at least to my seasoned eyes; you may find it beautiful)” — overheard. ______ A day like any other, but also a day like no other— ...

My hasty steps echo on the cracked stone tile, before the bus door hisses shut—Late again. "It's a wonderful life," the clouds sing in chorus. Their church choir harmony almost offensive, if I didn't know, they truly believe life is lullabies and steaming apple tea. Swear-soaked hair clings to my neck. I call these ember days: when smoldering urban air chokes— Yet the clouds drift, marshmallow white— Like porcelain...

Flowers don't have a daily life They are dressed beautifully To attract any lover bees Or adorn to any visiting butterfly Their beauty is but a fleeting Their charm is intoxicating Their fragrance scent is beneficial To all men, women and lover One day they will be on display In a garden or in a flower shop They will be put in the lady's...

Where went my package, ordered long ago? The app displays delivered, but no proof waits At the door, nor at the store—no box, no crates, Whereto my package? I simply don’t know… Was it stolen, picked up by some joe schmo? Or lost in transit, misplaced, dropped, as fate’s Great comedy, with mischievous whim dictates? Whereto my package?...

My heart holds this moment close of wind and rain sweet across the bay grey storm that heralds our coming autumn a shred of blue forecasts afternoon calm but for now the rain drops resolute My coffee warm against my hands as I gaze out upon the grasses swaying on the bluff above a fortress of grey stone the seagulls have no worries...

Randomness of Daily Life David J Walker It seems that I was Kneeling and praying For something to Ease the tension Of a day in which Nothing happened As if the sunrise would be Wasted in the tedium of Anticipation unmet Dragging a long day out Into a wasted sunset And At night, my restless dreams Morphed into imagining And the fears of more than just The randomness of daily life...

I miss the nuances of daily life while weeks are frozen in this quarantine. I miss the lost normalcy of my days in all aspects, obvious and unseen. I miss turning my head to read the spines of the novels on the library shelves, I miss the crackle of books’ cellophane and the old people who sit by themselves. I miss the box...

I want to rearrange rooms with you, Sipping steeped teas and coffee beans. Pondering an existential anamnesis; "The aloe should go here." I want to want little victories, Shape sovereign lands from the exigent patriarchy of our uncordial entente. Reap what worlds within worlds are ours from the wars of decor. Where the couch lives is where the war is won. Shrinking...

"Our Father in Heaven" You are my God, my Savior and my Father. You fill the earth, the seas, the sky and the heavens, and you fill my heart. I am your child and you love me. All good things come from you and if I ask, you will give me the desires of my heart....

The yellow sun rises high in the sky, All the villagers are waking, Blue birds singing from high up in their nests, Weapon grabbing ready for their trip, Lonely animals getting tracked down, All men sneaking, Animal has been spotted, Spears flying towards the creature, Squelching flesh tearing apart, Animal rapidly dying, Everyone enjoying their feast, People slowly doze off into a calm relaxed sleep. By...
