Leavening Poems | Examples


Lost in thought

I tend to get lost back at the beginning, 
such a beautiful end. I don't need to be in love
I can just pretend.

I walk open handed on endless beaches
leavening shallow footprints for someone to find.
My imagination runs wild on the winds of maybe.

I get lost in forever skies, leading me away.
never wanting to find the end. I venture deeper into
this void of unknown delusion.

Manifestations that refuse to manifest, unresolved feelings
Questions You? Me? The epitome of solitude standing by my self
in a crowd. Ambiant light in the shade of red on the darkest
of nights.

I can be anything I want here without her

Premium MemberPRAISE BE TO GOD FOR HAVING COMPASSION ON US

October 7 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Matthew 15-16

Key Verse – Matthew 15:32 Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude…

PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR HAVING COMPASSION ON US

Praise be to God for having compassion on us:
Saving us despite our transgressions
Separating us from traditions’ trespasses 
Sanctifying us according to His truth we trust
Satisfying us by His triumph along trials and tests
Supporting us upon His Scriptures of trustworthy testimony

Matthew 16:6 Praise be to the Lord for warning us 
to take heed and beware of: 
Leavening sinfulness
Lawless love so sensual
Leadership that is selfish
Laborious load lifting sickness
Light lifting stubbornness’ shame

Matthew 16:18 Praise be to the Saviour 
for building His church upon His:
Purpose by His providence
Person with His peaceful presence
Power against persistent persecutions
Provisions toward progressive prosperity
Precepts midst His perfect plan of perpetuity. Amen!

I Failed To See

Looking back, there was always light
Enough to balance my time in the dark
A relentless, steady, undying spark
Revealed, in time, at close of night

I never thought to question, just why
I didn’t stop to ponder specifics
It took the dark and quickly fixed it
Blissfully ignorant, my heart, obliged

From the very start, I heard music play
Humming the tune, while tapping my feet
I always adored the aesthetic beat
Leavening spirits and leaving me gay 

At no time, did I dissect the lyrics 
Not once, did I consider, contemplation 
A meaning behind the pleasant vibration
Reciting a song, but I never did hear it

I was there all along, but failed to see
The force that drove my everyday life
Yet, moving to the beat and warmed by light

Poetic Therapy

My miracle solution to an everyday disaster
Fingers are weak.  Can’t type any faster

A swarm of thoughts that just keep coming
My cowardly ways, keep me running

Frantically recruiting a place of solitude
A tranquil setting to let my feelings loose

An overflow of words begin to spill
Priming a place for my heart to heal

Something about the written word
Alters delivery when a message is heard 

So I write through the joy and I write through the pain
Leavening my heart and contracting my brain

Once expressed, I feel a calming closure
My roaring nerves, slow to a purr

I skim over my piece and quickly let go
I put it away and lighten my load

Nail Polish

NAIL POLISH 

 Is something special 
 happens when you read 
 this ?

 my hands are cold to touch 
 you,leavening my pen
 holding you fingers 
 biting your nails

 door of sky is open 
 with the paired of birds
 in the sky,stars are laughing
 on me with the rain of sparkle
 
 wind bewitching with the
 condiment  sentiments of
 our love by fire got on my 
 painting of our freeze moment 
 
 
 colors flow from the height of 
 mountain to a river to meet your 
 nail like a shine of it,

 smoke of my painting flying
 like a butterfly in my heart to see
 how your Nails
 are looking when you open your eyes 


 with love all

The Leavening of the Soul

Character, as then a word
gathers or depletes ~ what is heard
times nuance, profiting as heard
the truth ~ or consequence' does readily invert!

Character ~ becoming known
the self to God, by His alone
no shortcoming, can meter less
the trial, becoming moment's press!

Character ~ for and against
a daily diary, no nonsense
as good and bad, the real invest
is in our spiritual hope's oneness!

Character ~ my mind's duress
does write it out, column's address
to keep the Faith, I must confess
my weakness, in this bonding's bless!

Character ~ the dough of time's redress
The Spirit of God . . . and Mans' mind's sense!

The Night of Unleavened Bread

Matzos slip into their mouths
Voices project merrily...tonight is
The night of Unleavened Bread

Lamb and other delicious
Meats and veggies... satisfies our taste buds 
What a splendid night it is!

Wine's brewin' in our wine cups
The dinner table - creates pleasant talk 
During this meaningful night

There's moments of quietude 
When it comes to de-leavening our lives
But, there's moments of gladness

On this night of peacefulness
Cheesecake - a delightful treat to savor 
During this night of pure bliss

Premium MemberDefining Love

Love is the leavening of life,
Old man caring for his old wife.
Vital component of worthwhile living,
Every true love is also forgiving.

Premium MemberMelva H Olmos Painting of Guacamaya Roja Or Red Macaw Or Ara Macao

Ah, Red Macaw, you are the pestilence
of impatience
in my day, soaring far, far overhead
squawking and screaming
your face overheated and red
beak too portentous
for sweets, gobbling and demanding
if ever you stop, but the leaves
have no leavening, you’re all feed
and poop and mar my day.

Even though I seek you out
you escape, Scotch-free, 
wearing a tartan of betrayal.
Who you seem to be
righter of words, merely mimics
what experience I bring
with my heart and days. I want to
wear flames, gold, drink juices
that drip from the blues of my mouth.

You wear my head where I have shadow.
You wear my flight, straight and narrow
Branching and diving and soaring.
You wear my hunger for the sweetness
of truth, but follow only my path
Where is yours? Where is your course?
Of course. Your caw, screams
Why don’t you speak your own language
Know your own. Your home.
Instead of mine.

Enveloped

Rainbow - hues of love's presence
Drizzles of warmth and joy
Contentment of heart
Calming the ragged edge
Leavening excitement
Of all but the real
Circle's half - is subtly whole
Seen in a flash- lighting the soul
Remnants of delight's flight lingering
Poignancy wraps tightly 
Our ode to love's stanza
Ribbons of the misty arc- adorn the day

The Leavening

I read it so, the Bread of Life
without discourse, without contrive
did lighten, nourish, so arrive
that building up, to merit, live ~

That in my lines
I found your strife
did so surround with beauties hive
that honey of discourse revive!

This leavening of love's requiet,
that injured particle, that pride,
that unaccomplished effort's stride
that unforgiven song's abide!

That haste, that entry unrelied
were all a Godly plan, not tried,
that love unsettled so applied,
unmixed, unsettled faith ~ no bride!

Is love, thus meddled with denied,
pourous regrets hidden and shied,
how puffed up, spoiling shape's decried
this fatness trail, unholy mile!

Be waiting, like a homeless child
so love relinquished dies servile ~
to thee I give, last frenzied mile,
wherein thee walk, wherein thee . . . . smile!

Trial & Error

Mistakes are apart of life, it's a given, that's the beauty of it. In an instance pain & turmoil 
can hover over you like a black cloud, the past is the past it's all about the right now. I'm 
livin off experience and in these days positive communication people ain't really listening to 
they don't make men & women like they used to love ain't what it used to be, trial & error is 
one step closer to being free unconditional love is needed so before I settle for less and 
compromise my faith i save face keep it moving and keep them platonic friends, yet I still 
await my woman to arrive so heaven sent, what's taken her so long to find me is she really 
that hesitant nevermind that I just continue to eat my daily bread yeah spiritual leavening in 
the essence I never fell off thart bike I'm still peddling, my God is able to do exceedingly so I 
wear my heart on my sleeve for the hell of it life ain't nothin but a highly anticipated 
suspense movie but the black guy doesn't die in this one. This ain't a fairy tale but I then 
seen some re-runs yeah I hear evil but check it I don't see none still I await my queen's 
arrival patiently all in due season

Season Sonata

The watermarked weave of 
sunset's net
Does not soon force us
to forget
The leavening clouds
encasement soon
Of mallard's flight in night's
cocoon.
And in the morning sunlight's
dance,
The summer vermilion leaves
enhance
The platinum sheen of swooping
wren
As silver slug trails signature
an end.
