Handwriting On The Wall Poems | Examples


Intuition

"How good is your intuition,
When assessing the situation 

Theoretically,
Or analytically 

To be witness to,
Or deciding for you

The net result,
Of former doubt

Is it derived,
By good vibes

Is it a premonition,
Or educated supposition 

It it insight combined with fact,
To determine the final act

Or is it obvious to recall,
Like handwriting on the wall

Maybe it’s like reading tea leaves in a cup,
With all the events and nuances to  add up

Or don’t if your not inclined,
In reading everyone’s mind

Like a moth that builds a cocoon,
Emerging as a butterfly soon

Our thoughts and observations are woven,
To see the goal we have chosen 

Or the mentality of emotion,
Be it person or place with devotion 

For much can be left unsaid,
Requiring your intuition instead

So take a moment to suppose,
What your insight will propose"
Form: Rhyme

February

Facing it all
Ensure life doesn't play you like a ball
 Be wise and read the handwriting on the wall
Raise your head and stand tall
Unnoticed, they will think you are small
Avail yourself when opportunities call
Rise in newness with God you will not fall
Your plane of life will never enter a stall
Form: Acrostic


I Look For You

????? ???

In the corner of the bookstore is a man playing dominoes
the crowd outside doesn't notice the confusion,
there is the sound of firecrackers and people turn
in all directions, the cameras searching for an answer

??????
no one will ever know the truth, it is well hidden
they will look for it in all the faded photographs
but it is a mystery to the world, that fatal day in November
some will say it is this, some will say it is that

 
the love, that inspired it
???? ??????
 
I say to the handwriting on the wall,
it was you all along, 

anchoring away, marching through Marseilles
with your epaulets and caps on.

 beauty in the eye of the beholder.
