Going On Poems - Poems about Going On

I Don't Know What Is Going On, But Half The People Are Crazy
the streets smell of coffee and the burnt ends of last night’s cigarettes. faces move past me like they’ve been sandpapered— eyes dull, shoulders pulled up like bad weather. the mailman walks slower, the bartender pours heavier, even the pigeons look nervous. something’s in the air— a weight you can’t see but you feel it pressing your ribs. I drink my beer, pretend I’m above it, but...

Going Places
The bold horizon burned and died cold in my eyes as I turned aside on the road to nowhere taking it slow making it easy in no hurry to go I'm taking my time for I never felt the need to heed the latest mad fad or follow the current day's craze yet I don't fret or sweat the small stuff but I did learn soon enough the tide...

Premium Member Got to keep going
We all wish for something more than what we see, We’re all searching for a place where we can be free. With every step we take, the stakes are high, But we lift each other up, make our spirits fly. ...

Tale of Two Cities and Two Captains
Well what the Dickens is going on? My choice as the greatest scribe and voice of our tribe Charles not himself a cricketing man but definitely a fan Twas…the tale of two skippers and two cities Both burdened by the weight of Great Expectations from both nations Cometh the hour cometh the Shubman Cooing classical looks…wooing crannies and nooks Eschewed the media...

Premium Member Going Back to Future Beyond
I woke to the glare of a screen-lit frown, My hopes drowned in code, and my soul shut down. Elon, there said, "The time-machine code is cracked," "It’s your call now, buddy, go now, be reborn" I'm going back ... To rewrite fate, to make it right, To hitch the train, to a better domain. To force the past to speak again, For...

Keep Going!
Today was so very brutal. I felt my strength worked to the bone. My family doesn’t seem to care. At times, I feel so alone. All the thoughts of would’ve, could’ve, should’ve come rushing to my mind. There are many peaks and valleys, as I keep moving through my life. The devil has always been right there, to discouraged and accuse. But...

Going, Going, Gone
Arrived alive departed dead and the same may be said of all who tread this weary world of ours less a milestone more a speed bump each Birthday I perceive and poetry is but one way to fill the waning hours for me ...

Premium Member I Think I'm Going to Cry
Oh, if I could see once more a gumball machine in a grocery store. Alas, these days, I never do see any, although, they only cost a penny - and, then I'd like to take a ride on a little coin operated car outside....

Sweet One
Sweet little one, Please don't cry. Don’t shed your tears, Don’t hide your face, Step into the light. Don’t be afraid. Know that I am here, Know that I am by your side, Through the thick and the thin. So don’t you shy away, You can take on the world, Face your fears head-on, Show them what you're made of. Show the world you’re not backing down now. Tell...

There’re wars and rumor of wars There’s war going between Israel and Iran There’s war between Russia and Ukraine There’re those who wish to be dictators and kings There’re riots, violence disturbance Uproars, outburst of uncontrollable conditions Going on in this country and around the world There are families and individuals out of control But everything is going to be all...

Going Back in Time
If I could rewind I’d join the little kind And be a youngling again Playing in the rain With laughter larger than cares With superstitions and fears I’d do stuff that makes no sense Like finally kicking the ball over the fence And I’d be free of all responsibilities As I chase after nonsensities Because, for that fleeting window I wouldn’t have to be a widow...

Premium Member THE WAY THINGS ARE GOING AND SHOULD NOT BE
Things going the way they are going, is really not good; For today, things are not going the way they really should:- Politics is, and will always be, about power and political control; And today’s politicians are musky mongers, both young and old:- Time for us to be about going and getting things as they ought to be; Particularly with...
