Journey Poems | Examples of Journey Poetry

But tell my friend, you must have moved a lot. Oh sure, I’ve been in a constant journey: To a beggar for a few biscuits bought, With a child thrilled as if with a trophy, On pilgrimage, or in some wishing wells, In temples, helping with a layman’s faith, A rupee coin many a tall wall scales, In constant motion, often out...

Last night I dreamt I was one-rupee coin Who met a two-thousand rupee crisp note In a rich man’s pocket, looking so keen At the exalted worthy of my vote. The note asked: you find anything funny? No, but you must have moved many a miles, Which, a penny like me cannot any, The coin wondered. No, caught I was on isles All...

A good thought conceived in the soil of positivity making its way through shard and slag finding its way home into the heart. The slag is cleverly staggered and thickening filled with thorns and snags and dirty rags The good thought forced to play pachinko with a venomous society. Battered, fanged and chipped the good thought's ragged journey end has it found its...

Numb.... Lonely Staring at the same gloomy rain dripping down 2 different window panes over 300 miles away Feeling alone & ashamed, full of regret because of how we hehaved but not giving up bc this Actual, Magical, One of a kind love is just too unfathomable to not crave its right there out of our reach, our plans, wants & goals so easy to speak but...

If balm of time heals, oft hurts just enough, Heart heals because it exerts just enough. Unfortunate for all destinations, Journeys do end, linger thirsts just enough. Many a love may die before its time, Perhaps the love bird flirts not just enough. If a marriage gets short of breath midway, It seeks short cuts, skirts the right long...

Three days ago, I was buried on the ground as it seems! A cascade of issues as the days go by. The unrelenting sorrows and pain--- Weak, broken, desolation it brings! I seized the world with open hands, optimism, smile, love as much as could. Full of hope, peace and wisdom. Still joy would vanish out of sight. I left no trace in...

Shall I embark on a dangerous journey - into the realm within? I pretend to know it, but it is largely unexplored. Much of it abandoned and forgotten, cordoned off and forsaken, with signs that say, "Warning: Keep Out". ...

Enlightenment Enlightenment, don’t know what it is… As endless waves swell and break On the ocean of Samsara All the while under Nirvana’s spacious sky. Is there such a thing As a final goal, Or is it instead An endless process of becoming? How should I know? But I do know That once I knew with all my heart I would eventually become...

Presently, God has a plan and purpose that was set in motion before we were born. His love for us allows us to be participants in the JOURNEY to our destiny. Indeed, we are not robots or mortals in motion via instincts. Presently, all of us exist in space and time. These two entities, space and time, make up our...

What is it they say to chase demons away? When scars inside ache, what words can placate? What meaning is found crawling on ground? When you feel you’re nothing to see. When you see what they think of thee! Barriers form and walls are built to shield a heart from the pain in the mind force fed through aged, outside...

Nothing beats the summer breeze The memories of the ones who leave Lotus flowers smile at me Saying this will pass, you’ll come to see Walking in a forest with my shoes in my bag Wishing I were leaving the town that I have The year is almost over, and I’m still lying on the grass The...

Today’s thought Tomorrow’s venture Bags packed Wheels ready to spin A Greyhound bus open road ready to begin The journey through state to state Stopping at towns being no mistake Four days travel Freeway wind Various interstate routes Distance far Bus comfort than a car Recline and relax America’s acquaintance Passerby wave High Mountains up look Heart of hope The sense of cope A friendly hand Goodness in the land Major cities after major cities...
