Fearsome Poems | Examples

Yaldabaoth embellished in his shadows

Caliginous eyes
Fearsome face of sickly white
Lion-headed snake
Embellished in his shadows  
With flaming orange beneath

The Black Quiet 2

Sitting up on your bed 
Something black slithers underneath
Under your feet
You blink
And like that 
It’s gone
You think you think you think
Was it real?
You feel something touch your skin
You start itching
Fear creeps in
Sounds like 
A cold whisper on your cheek
Someone said your name
You freeze
As the lights flicker the door creaks
You hear stomping 
Then see 
Nothing
You try to scream
You fight to scream
You cry
But nothing
You see and hear nothing
It’s too quiet
But your eyes are able to move
When the lights go out
The black quiet covers your house
Crippling you 
To the floor
Now I’m standing at your door!

Emi Sunshine and the Rain

Flawless
Fifteen
Skin so fit and clean;
The color white seem fragile
Splash of pink stood out in twilight
My spirit smiled
Her fresh voice in comfort of what's right,
I paused and said, "Welcome!"
Oh beautiful for songs she sung
I'm snug with light lyrics floating on zephyr breeze
Each tune melts my heart  to hum, as
She sang for the nations
Summer warmth and rain songs.

A Fearsome Blue Mask

Sporting skin-tight gloves
and a fearsome blue mask
  What do you mean
  "Is this a stick-up?"
How   dare    you    ask

What Fearsome Burning God

How softly sweetly,gently flowers pose
Carnation,orchid ,daffodil and rose.
Their intricate petals form a shield
Yet bees with  much striped force shall make them yield.
Appearances,both natural and contrived,
Mixed with the wiles of human nature thrive.
As, knowing not, we pluck the apple rare
And bite its flesh,with teeth we have to bare.
We too deceive the innocent who pass
Not seeing watchers hid behind the glass.
The windows break,the deep earth quakes;
Seized is the maiden ,he  her virtue takes.
Beneath the surface,force and fierceness thrive.
What fearsome, burning God enjoys our lives?

As My Sad Tears Fall, Its Gown Glows a Fearsome Red

As My Sad Tears Fall, Its Gown Glows A Fearsome Red

I simply can not write good poetry today
yesterday's ghost haunts me and will not go away,
on its torn black cap and red shoes are jingling bells
in its raging red eyes are high, sea raging swells.
Ruby ringed left hand, holds repugnant staff of wastes
in its right, bucket of blood, begging bitter tastes!

I simply can not write good poetry today
last night's dreams, yesterday's persistent ghost yet stays
replaying scenes that are chosen to break my heart,
screaming, beautiful red roses were torn apart.
As my sad tears fell, its gown glows a fearsome red
casting curses upon lying words I once said. 

I simply can not write good poetry today
yesterday's ghost haunts me and will not go away,
on its torn black cap and red shoes are jingling bells
in its raging red eyes are high, sea raging swells.
Ruby ringed left hand, holds repugnant staff of wastes
in its right, bucket of blood, begging bitter tastes!

Rhyme, (Dark And Ghostly Regrets)
Inspired by a dream, rather a recent nightmare I had....

Fearsome

At the bottom core of my soul,
I fear the fate I lead,
I fear the pain and loneliness,
I fear the yet to be.

We all search for our being,
Self worth with acceptance,
Take the world of fear away,
And your left with peaceful presence.

Engraved in our heads,
As young reflecting morals,
To fear every instability,
Always harboring turmoil.

So fear the fear of having fear,
Live life yet not the careful way, 
Make the fright a motivation,
And inspire others every day

What Fearsome Burning God Enjoys Our Lives

How gently,sweetly softly flowers pose,
Carnation,orchid ,daffodil and rose.
For their intricate petals form a shield
Yet bees with striped force do make them yield.
Appearances,natural or contrived,
Mixed with the wiles of  men and women thrive.
As knowing not, we pluck the apple rare
And bite its flesh,with teeth we have to bare.
We too deceive the innocent who pass
Not seeing watchers hid behind the glass.
The windows break,the dark earth quakes;
Seized is the maid and  he her virtue takes.
Beneath the surface,force and fierceness thrive.
What fearsome, burning God directs our lives?

No Fearsome Island

I love the island.
Island is no man.
When peace is none.
Beautiful island.
With beach.
And white sand.
Before I don't feel the fear.
Fearsome here.
Fearsome there.
Fearsome tell.
Old business dear.
Trade with with slavery.
That's only history.
Shouldn't happen today.
Tomorrow would be great easy.
No abduction.
Fearsome no more.
I love you peace.
Layag Sug!

My Fearsome Five

I don't have one favourite animal
my favourites are the big 5
having been to Africa twice
seen them all real and live

The lion is so majestic
earning it's rightful place of king
the largest and biggest is the elephant
loving the water is their thing

Unpredictable is the buffalo
a lover of good old grass
A rhino loves a diet of vegetables
living for 40 years on mass

Finally we come to the loner
the leopard's never last
with a coat of beauty
and high speed so fast

So there you have my favs
a fearsome five they are
wouldn't want to meet them all at once
without having a fast car

A Fearsome Light

Where the nail meets the wrist
and the tree tops explode
in a firework of birds,
going off in a wild change of heart

and a murmur of clouds
now gets caught in the light
of the razor-sharp wings
of angels, restored to the sky,

there I stand and I sing,
from the rooftops of hurt
and the ashes of dreams
and the emblems of hope:

in this place of truth,
in this fearsome light,
I must turn to you,
till the end of love and time.

Fearsome Feline

basking in the sun,

        idling maned predator,

                    the tawny terror.
