Incognita Poems - Poems about Incognita

Terra Incognita

Putting out fires not of my making
it's time-consuming heart-breaking
the grass over there don't seem any greener
and from my perspective the streets are meaner
the so-called social networks are as unsociable as can be
impersonal with dirty laundry on show for everyone to see
despite self-admitted wrong-doing and misdeeds
the herd still follows their every lead
but I won't borrow sorrow
and

Terra Incognita 

Hidden!
Uncharted eternity birthing
Roiling! 
In a slow dance
The pregnant pause of terra’s faults
 Breaks o p e n 
   In slip strikes
Earth’s fiery magma
Spit back into the hands of Heaven’s potter
Churning!
 Moody
  Mercurial
   Footprint on the landscape’s soul
Journey to epiphany and nature’s improvisation
 New land birthed
  Uncharted steamy

Terra Incognita

He had a dream in the still of the night,
Someone beckoned on him,
Someone implored him to come,
He looked distressed and troubled.

He was worried 
He knew it was an urgent plea,
But it was a place no one had ever been,
It was a place shrouded in mystery.

Many had tried to go,
Many as such who was entreated to

Terra Incognita

Peering beyond reach of human capacity
I revolve around the sun in a solar orbit,
Looking deep in space for origins of bygone
Going way beyond anyone has ever gone,
Exploring unknown world of astronomy
Searching light from first stars and galaxies
Traversing back in time where it all began,
Forming our universe after the Big-Bang.

Some 13.6 billion light-years my eyes reach,
Studying

Terra Incognita

I do not know what lies  
           beyond that inner boundary
     I have never dared venture there 

a tender place 
kept carefully guarded
lest l breach its defences

I think a wound from the past lies there

Terra Incognita

Diurnal moments margin in my head,
As metamorphosis pirouettes hands,
Nightmarish recall exit none be said,
An armistice mosey in of spilt sands.

Logjam beliefs wane gains, prosperity,
Erring hand fingered an island nation,
Right foresees windfall, voters clarity,
Left wins Red China, lost the election.

Past oversights also recent letdowns,
Amiss twentieth, twenty-first embed,
Ruse an angle

Terra Incognita

I heard of lands both far and near
where wealth beyond tale can conceive. 
With rivers deep and mountains sheer
for the brave to challenge and reave.
I heard of them and I believe
this call that moves me to explore.
I should follow my heart and weave
the path where none has gone before.

Through legends spread by foe and peer,
my

Terra Incognita

I know well of a cat's ear, eye, nose, teeth, coat, paws and claws,
Do I know, what's behind its look and mysterious pause?
I know a dog's acute sense of smell; muscles and fingers,
Do I know what's going-on when he quietly lingers?

I see my neighbor-child stand exuberantly leaping,
I stand in awe, when, within seconds, I see

Terra Incognita

The emerald forest uniquely so mystique,  
as far as I can see beyond the horizon,
shrouded by surreal stillness it spreads, 
wraps me as I amble in rippling breeze. 
Its charming cadence enthralls 
my essence suffused with rhapsody.  

As I walk on the fading forest path 
around the shadows of ancient trees, 
the clumps

Terra Incognita

In my dream, I sailed away
Over the tame waters of a tranquil bay
And landed in a magic isle
Never set foot before by anyone alive
A pleasant retreat of birds and beasts
Far removed from world’s dust and heat
A terra incognita with a magic spell
Hidden away at Nature’s veiled breast

The sky was rent with songs of birds
The air,

Terra Incognita

I didn’t listen to his words
Even though, in my heart, I heard
When he told me I was a hypocrite
I found myself praying for God’s intervention
For the assurance that I wasn’t being
A hypocrite – a fraud, a phony
I wasn’t someone who was just pretending
To love the Savior, my whole world
The answer to my every anxiousness
The reason

Terra Incognita

"Life is either daring adventure or nothing at all." 

                                             

Terra Incognita

My reefs look dazzling in the dawn light.
A sea of hypocrisy and lies that we must fight.
They are held to what they are allowed to view,
And yield when they grip their identity and hue.

I can hear sighing while I'm still close firmly,
Millennia ago, by beings apt to live eternally.
I can feel their vicinity and smell

Terra Incognita

So strange this land, old and yet young.
Where is this place of tall green trees,
and grey-haired men in unknown tongue?
they must have traveled summer's breeze.

Adobe brick quonset "chalets"
mud-soaked roadways in all the blocks.
WACs and wives and waifs everyday
midst hollyhocks and four o'clocks.

Los Alamos*, this place must be.
A land of Oz 'neath bluest sky.
Where science dealt

Terra Incognita

Far beyond the reaches of the Milky Way
A galaxy exists which remains unnamed
Unseen by human eye or large telescope,
It is, to my knowledge, not yet defamed.

Pure and undefiled, suitable for living
In a Goldilocks zone yet to be uncovered
Fresh clean air, and an abundance of water,
Awaiting its coordinates to be discovered.

A terra incognita resembling heaven
Is just
