Induce Poems | Examples

Torrid Affair

If, as the saying goes,
'There's no smoke without fire,'
is it smarter to ignite a spark
(illumination causation)
than bedamn the dark,
and thereby induce a funeral pyre,
or, better yet, a safer bet,
to avoid gossip and accusations,
find the substantiated fact(s)
(true datum)
before you act
and land in sorry situations?
It's no joke, on soot you'll choke,
yet, on the greener side,
carry the torch for earth non-scorched
but best your light you hide,
(it may be life-transforming)
beneath an unburnt bush,
so as not to incur global warming.

Utter Nonsense

Allow me to introduce
the hermit Hugh
who
I do deduce
felt it within himself
to eschew
an embrace
yet
being obtuse
when on a wild chase
did goose a moose
in the caboose
then a disgrace
but such behaviour
did induce
Bruce
another recluse
to pick up the pace
when playing footsie
under the table
fast and loose

Brainwash

My pawns are carved from the ivories
ripped from flesh are the tusks 
I need to have agency,
my moves I look forward
to in any direction 
through hearts I may pierce
a game of thrones
when I win the board it's clear
wrists bloodied from the combatants
my  treasured knights toss
their plated platinum gauntlets 
not for the queen of queens
nor a worthless king
but for forcible indoctrination to induce 
to give up basic political, 
social, and  religious beliefs 
and attitudes and to accept 
contrasting regimented ideas

Premium MemberPeaceful abode

in a world of chaos
where harmony is just a dream
and nightmares induce every scream
i'll freely ride high upon a moonbeam
to machinate the perfect scheme
to build my home adjacent to a stream

Premium Memberand how are we feeling today?

Can readers or authors foresee 
Freed up manic moods and more glee?
Mixed-up word orphans
Induce endorphins
Without a psychiatrist’s fee

OR

What do poem authors desire?
Freed up manic moods and less ire!
We rhyme word orphans
To boost endorphins
So psychiatrists we can fire

Premium MemberYou're on my mind

Written: June 5th, 2024, For Jay Narain Contest

                            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Your smile awestruck me every morning,
Truly ambrosian and quiddity display style.
Your ariose image is rife in my dreams,
As optimism rises, I wake up with beams.

You could be the one, I didn't love enough,
There was a juncture in, I treated you rough.
Girl, if I beshrew you feel odious, I was blind,
If I crestfallen you, you're often on my mind.

You induce me to dare my worries and fears,
I will support you in your anguish and tears.
All I sense for you is beyond what I may show,
You are precious to me; I wish that you know.

I didn't descry you those lonesome times,
It is a delight to have you; you are sublime.
My thoughts of you hampered my tries to rest,
The warmth of your kindness swells my chest.

Whatever transpires, I will be devout to you,
My briny goal is always you, and I will pursue.
Allow me to win your quintessence one final time,
I often relate to you; I've never had time to dime.

Premium MemberHarvest of Osyter Pearls



her ethereal gaze tucked    me into nirvanic waves
tore me asunder amid    quixotic abyss and seraphic throe 
I harvest pearls    from mollusks in swimming oysters 
strip it in kaleidoscopic iris    fiercely fleeced mote sand
pearls evolved    into a sumptuous elixir necklace
a seashell conceals a jewel-like hair as dark as obsidian
pristine girl with a pearl necklet and mellifluous voice 
with her smile    flings delicate pearls
her eyebrows cling to me beckoning me    near 
abrim    with tears    cleansed her azure iris
I tidied her sylphlike trail    some sobs    stuffed a cup
It soaked roses    threw daffodil pearls    bit jujubes with hail
hence    my previously sealed heart thawed
a phoenix    in its zenith    sweeps me to skies 
In a cosmic splay studded with stars    I dwell
her wispy eyelashes distract me from her gaze
she eviscerates   dumbfounds me with    dark detritus
may my love ram-raid and induce her to ponder    again

Outlook On Pain
Miracle Man
4/17/2024

God didn’t promise,
that I’d have no trials.
Nor that all my days,
would be filled with smiles.
Some days things occur,
that induce a frown.
But no temporary discomfort,
will keep me down.

Premium MemberAntimony Foolishness

Antimony Foolishness
Age 51 is often when one’s unable,
To buy the status quo, it’s old and needs mending.
New sports car, how youthful!  Refuting the label,
Of premature old age, gray hair pending.
Girl friends need to be added to the stable,
Young women, their company lending,
Immortal aura when sharing their bar table.
What invokes “against aloneness”, or “befriending”?
You’ll find a word “antimonos” in Greek fable.
The element Antimony, #51, is alloy tending,
By emulating its properties, “Romeo” is enabled.
By experimenting with the valence one’s sending,
Reactions occur, some of which may be stable,
But it’s hard to tell if another is bonding or pretending,
Especially, to induce attraction, one increases spending.
Remember to study and use the Periodic Table,
It prolongs youth, the illusion of vitality never ending.

Premium MemberDrunken Lips - Anacreontic couplets

May one love you like Shakespeare?
Write verses to bring you near.
In delicate sighless sips,
taste wine from your drunken lips,
as drops induce and seduce,
become drunk from your sweet juice.

Premium MemberSongs of Nature COS No 3: AABB

Forget-me-not thy scent hast taste of time,
who tolls naught for thee, attend harken chime.
Courtesies yond the proverbial realm.
acquired vesper's affections, overwhelm.
Cupid cedes ecliptic earth's lauded star,
Purple Vanda Orchids in gild's wake are
hauling affianced light 'neath golden rays,
velvety mosaic succeeding phase.
Proxy promises bonny lavenders
induce flex a princess's verbs. Challengers
spealing gingerly the princely petals,
submit an amethyst crown ... all's settles.
A stately champ, amaranthine Vandas,
the garlands of Purple Heart's--lifespan 'twas.

Premium MemberThe Maiden-1913 Gustav Klimt -1260

"Because you've deepened the conviction in my soul. I am woman.” Ray Burton

Restful repose.
Seemingly without clothes,
Yet adorned with a quilt.
Serene, no concerned guilt.
Appearing to slumber. 
Six women in number,
Or is it just one
In stages til life’s done?

Woman, slyly awake and alert.
Wiles of a temptress she'll assert.
The delicate virgin surrounded by flowers.
Buds turn to blooms as do woman’s powers,
Becoming full and plentiful.
The Painting acts as a sentinel.
Through the ages, she loves and will reproduce,
By gentle round contours her body will induce.

Creating splendid sensuality, 
She possesses untold morality.
Depicting an older woman back to the virgin so grounded. 
Her gown in purple and blue the maiden is surrounded.
Fertile spirals depicted swirling in reverse, 
Showing  ever changing woman, in the universe.

Premium MemberHeart Guard-Smart Choice

Choose wisely your what guards your heart; for we are products of our environment.

Written: October 21, 2023, For Miranda Hawley Contest
                            ________________________________

We must mightily mold matches in this life.
Actions must be taken to forestall strife.
We stop at every junction to demarcate.
What we decide will determine our fate.

Our upbringing has a significant impact on us.
Those who belong to us shape our solid fuss.
Be wary of who you let into your inner circle.
Because their vitality could be a hurdle.

You should stay away from the negative.
Things that are poisonous and deceptive
Smacking serves the strength to spread. 
And impel your emotions to grow in dread.

Avoid those who induce stress at a distance.
Who twists a grin into a gesture of riddance?
Wrap yourself in a quilt of affection and rely
And witness your spirit soar across the sky.
