Indolent Poems | Examples


The Indolent Wind

the indolent wind
dances in a gentle rain
could the problem not be of another
but an internal failure to find within
your real soul mate
and all trials and errors
belong to you
the absolute failure is abandoning you
dreams you follow 
become the roadside kills
ignored in the mirror
we do not demand happiness
we choose to live it
I can share passions
but not for the crucifixion 
one of my own

Weather

It was dawn
The weather was cold and chilly 
I peep out of the window
And found the streets empty 
Everyone seems indolent 
'Cause they're addicted to the life's pleasure 
But I have to go 
To earn my bread and living 
The days are tough 
For the people like me 
Causing gloomy forecast about the economy.

Indolent Mind

Indolent in mind and deed

The act of living a life so lazy

Some claim it’s creations design

But it’s a lifestyle that’s chosen and defined

By an indolent soul that’s happy to waste their life

As opportunities and actions past by

Allowing themselves to stagnate

It’s a form of self abuse and self hate

It could be open for debate

But the indolent mind won’t participate

Won’t raise its voice for its lazy that way

Indolent in thought and deed

Is not the ideology that I am in search for or need.

Indolent Thought

Aspirations and labor will tire your sinew
And when all the wearying drudgery is through
Some slovenly fool will give you a careless burial
And take charge of your estate – proud and imperial.

This is the thinking of a million languid loafers
Who expect to accede to some easy coffers
When some hardworking fellow of their blood dies,
To drink of their vines as they yield to worms and flies.

While the industrious son prays for father’s long life
The indolent one’s heart is ever filled with inner strife
When the old man’s health flourishes like wild grass,
Wondering why the old fella wants to outlive the stars.
