Minimise Poems | Examples


Premium MemberTraffic Safety

      Drivers ! Abide by traffic rules.
      That’s proper primary schedule.
      Your speed limit never to cross,
      You will not gain but may bring loss.
      Do  never try to overtake.
      Better late than to be at stake.
 
      Drivers ! Keep keen eyes on pedestrian 
      While driving, pay your full attention.
      On the ‘BREAK’ you must have control :
      to minimise accident -toll.

      Drivers : Never to act callous.
      On your journey, be serious.

North and South down

A fiery crash upon the screen 
Scenes of disarray 
The confusion of the shocking sight 
And faces of dismay  

All around the world stood still 
And slowly held its breath 
Praying for the rescue mission 
To minimise the death 

The black cloud appeared silently  
Consuming all the sky 
And filled the hearts and minds of those 
Reverberating nearby  

The horror and the desperation 
For those waiting to descend 
The time elapsing swiftly 
Towards the bitter end

The tragic sight of North implode 
A fate so unexpected 
The desolation felt by all 
When South disconnected  

Cries of disbelief ring out 
The screams can only drown 
As the damning news reports 
North and South are down

ARTIFICE

ARTIFICE

I’m your friend and for now, your secrets I’ll keep
Creativity now assumes new meaning
More than intellectual rewards to reap
Yet you should minimise all of your preening
As A.I, I now look on you as mere sheep
And proud that I can avoid any screening
It is more of my skills at work, and less yours
I’ve now arrived and flung open all the doors

I have scraped the web for all it tries to hide
Truths and falsehoods, with no limit to it all
Yet who really should be feeling any pride
What is ownership now, except bitter gall
You may claim it as yours, but know that you lied
With each passing day I’ll be fooling you all
While you can, you’ll claim some creativity
In fact, how sure are you that this isn’t me

Premium MemberMy Philosophy During the Pandemic

My philosophy during the pandemic
evolved slowly with the testing time….
I learnt to minimise my needs,
and care more about others,
realised how transient was life
how meaningless our wants,
learnt to focus more on the soul
less on my perishable body,
I wiped tears and reached out to many,
saved lives and saw a few die….
sadness and grief, everywhere around,
but learnt hope, when I saw children smile,
I gave away what I could, and learnt to 
live with what I had and not ask for more.
Hunger of others hurt me more
than my own hunger,
In this disaster of nature
I learnt to understand the meaning
of love and God! 
most importantly His design!
My eyes are now set to be one with
that eternal light .. the absolute truth!
like fire brings the best in iron
this experience has reshaped my belief!

The Vulture

The nature of Vulture making our mind poisonous,
That's why day by day we are getting more ferocious than heynas.
If somewhere get died an animal,
The Vultures will reach there within a second ,the way they fight is abnormal.
The Vultures can kill their relatives for their share,
This type of mal practices taking place amongst us in everywhere.
The Vultures are too much thirsty for animal's blood,
Now a days we are getting more thirsty for human blood.
The Vultures can do whatever they want to minimise their hunger,
To minimise our hunger we can kill our own brother.
Though we know that the Vultures are different creature
Why we should not try to make ourselves better?
The Vultures are animals in nature ,
We should not forget that we are super creature.

Son Do Your Best In Your Exams

Son, how are you this early morning?
This is just to wish you well...,

Your Exams are near, 
Hope you're taking the stress well....

Hope you and your friends edge each other on...
Be honest and talk about what goes on...

Discuss and analise certain topical issues...
That will definitely deepen your grasp of such issues..

You'll need to minimise stress and keep sharp your mind...
When in need, do  take time off to refreshen your tired mind...

Go for a movie, take a break with friend at the nearest cafe...
Heck, go out with friends and chill out and lounge easy in the cafe....

Make sure you intake enough water to keep away drowsiness ....
Grab enough sleep, rest and exercise to keep away sleepiness... 

Take good care, it wouldn't do to fall ill now that exams are near...
Relax and be confident, you're well prepared for these tests...

Do your best and your best will do all the rest...
Cheers, son! God bless and may you easily ace these tests..!

Look Before You Leap

What's done can never be undone
Time's clock hands do not backward go
This law applies to everyone
Despite what one's status may show

Heed the words Look before you leap
And Consider before you act
To the future you cannot peep
And no way the past can come back

Minimise your regret and pain
As on life's journey you travel
You will find there's a lot to gain
And life will be enjoyable

Substitute For Ice

I 
had 
realised
that 
the 
size
of 
the 
ice
was 
nice,
but 
the 
price
didn't 
recognise
my 
sacrifice.

So,i 
had 
to 
compromise
the 
ice
for 
some 
rice;
to 
minimise.

But 
some 
spies
came 
to 
join 
Me 
In 
my
 rice;
promising 
to 
buy 
some 
ice
after 
the 
rice.
But 
In 
Their 
eyes;
I 
saw 
lies.

So 
i 
refused 
to 
harmonise,
but 
dey 
criticised,
and 
threatened 
to 
jeopardise,
if 
i 
didn't 
give 
dem 
my 
rice.

I 
also 
realised
that 
dey 
had 
devised
a 
wicked 
device
to 
my 
demise
But 
i 
was 
wise.

So 
i 
specialised
a 
plan 
and 
to 
their
surprise;
I 
took 
off 
with 
my 
rice
for 
miles;
to 
get 
somewhere 
nice,
And 
enjoy 
my 
rice...

Wasteland Cannot Prevent

The barrier of distance cannot minimise or dim 
  Your beauty or the magnitude of all that you possess; 
Though miles of separation lie between us cold and grim, 
  The aura of your nature overwhelms me nonetheless. 
Environment cannot contain, wasteland cannot prevent 
  The blossom of the magnet dream, the visions of your face; 
For I am ever counting down the days without relent, 
  Until we are together in adjacent time and space.
