Move Up Poems | Examples

And Then

I’m setting off past through the close
Towards the light of day
Move up and down, back and forth
Without a word to say
Call me abruptly just in time
I shall return as soon as
More clouds will enclose the sky
More silence heave the corners 
And then you enter with a smile
The clock stroke twelve, and then..
What's happened then to you and I?
Remind me if you can.

Your Move

Your Move
 Move up two spaces over.
 On abrown and white board.
 64 squares.
 Use strategy if you dare.
 Ready to play the game.
 Loose pieces along the way.
 The game is abstract.
 More obstacles at that.
 Move the rook to the other side.
 Glide the queen to the right.
 Move the pawns out of my way.
 The king is not far away.
 Bishops move diagonal.
 Knights move all over.
 You're on a timer.
 Don’t take forever.
 It’s your turn.
 Play to learn.
 It’s too late.
 Check mate.
 Strategy in defeat.
 Game complete.
 Be alert.
 Move on, next player.

The Option

When life brings us what it brings us

We must never ignore the option of UP

Look up

Get up

Stand up

Sit up

Climb up

Lift up

Firm up

Rise up

Step up

Rouse up

Stir up

Move up

Scale up

Gather up

Regardless of what life brings us

Recovery follows when we explore the option of UP

Move Up

Up your gears
Cheat your fears
Drown your doubts
And move up

Learn a trade
And how to trade
Be a master
In your game

Conceal your cards
Evade the darts
Be smart and wise
And score good

Zen mode

raise the bar
stop pause blink

we are present
at both ends
simultaneously 

intent furious 
peace tranquil

move up and down 
ladder of vibration
seamlessly 

we acquire thus
power of bilocation

there is a caveat 
the seeker 
must disappear

Midnight death

Was a random dream dear!
Suddenly, my eyes open up,
I was sweating and full of fear,
Rattle! Just a little copper cup.

Oh God! Nothing was there!
But sorry to say to you Meet,
Someone is somewhere here,
I could feel someone's heat.

Suddenly I could see a shadow,
I was frozen to say God's name,
My tongue felt part of the swallow,
I am in shock I couldn't aim.

What's happening with me here!
I couldn't believe my hands cracked.
Help me God to move up there,
I wanna move out as I was jacked.

A creepy sound below my bed,
I wasn't, but I tried to look for.
But unfortunately it was my bad,
It was just the cup fallen before.

The black clouds, and cold air,
Coming inside from the window.
I will not go to close it, it's fair!
And disgusting noise, fast and slow.

When I tried to sleep peacefully!
Sometimes anything was happening.
It was a bad experience, surely!
Sleep! Morning would be shining.

Cool Meet! Cool down! It's gone,
Morning! Atmosphere will change,
Hope to have a bright sun fun.
But my death was absolutely strange!

There Is No Heaven

Ask our beloved late brother John W. Ono Lennon
He would tell you straight: ‘There’s No Heaven’
People on Earth are lunatic, crazy and flashy
They destroy or ravage everything they see
They don’t believe in brotherhood or unity
Yet they dream and aspire to live in paradise
For what? Why? That’s a farce, a prank, a disguise
They should first organize their affairs well on Earth
Before thinking or dreaming of going or flying there
They want to go to Heaven, but they’re afraid of death
They want absolute happiness, yet they’re freaking unfair
Racist, ignorant, superstitious, arrogant and jealous
Nobody can prove vere, verbatim et literatim that Heaven exists
We can talk, chat, shout, curse, rhyme and sing all we want
People are crazy, loud and gaudy. They sing, moan and rant
People always imagine or invent things that arouse desire and grandeur
Let’s start with Peace and Love, and then we’ll move up the ladder.

Moving Up

You move up one lead
Towards Conservatory
A singer-actor.

Limbo

Limbo 
Hunched over and holding a Zimmer frame 
Limbo
Waiting for a call that is never - ever going to come 
Limbo 
The day draws nearer as the blinds on the window begin to shut sealed 
Limbo 
That's what they call it, hanging on every single word and action 
Limbo 
Bend over backwards. Don't bother in even trying. You're bent over now. 
Limbo 
Pull that duvet and run a bath and play some music 
Limbo 
Don't listen, just watch. Watch my lips move up and down in slow motion to the rhythm of this beat 
Limbo 
Don't bother in even trying. It is all done now. It has already gone by and it is told and told to whoever passes you by 
Limbo

Jack 40

My eternal thanks I wish to express
With gratitude to John from the local press

Writing us off completely, with the words to the public he did say
Advising us to avoid embarrassment and not turn up to play

In a cup final against opposition with superior skills and refined touch
However, names and reputations don't guarantee winning matches as such

In my time in the game, I've learned a few things through the years
If you don't start correctly it's hard to move up through the gears

The words my players took to the pitch were loud and clear
Confidence without arrogance and respect without fear

Thanks again to the man for the words he did write
He was mentioned in the team talk, we were up for the fight

When the match was over and all was said and done
We turned up, he was wrong and we had won

Nauthiz

Nearly forgot to mention
A very important issue
About the rune I got
It is called Nauthiz - 
What a strange sounding name. 
To tell you in short, it means
That I’ve reached the bottom
And from the low of this point
I'd better move up facing hardships
And whatever trials to come.
But I don’t believe it’s all true
Cause I keep believing in chances
Only a chance can make changes
The most long-awaited ones.

I’m Scared To Sleep Tonight

01.12.2019

I’m scared to sleep
Tonight scared of what I feel
When I fall asleep
I’m scared of this thing which I can’t tell if it’s real
Or not but when it’s around
I feel as if Mount Kilimanjaro is on my chest
I can’t scream I can’t move I’m like a mouse bound
In a lab I thought the reason to sleep is rest
But as for me 
I’m compromised
Every time I see
This creature I’m paralyzed
Head to toes and the more I try to move
The more it tightens 
Its grip I keep asking myself is it the roof
The door or the window it uses to creep in and frightens
Me to death I’ve tried to look hard into the dark
Thinking I’d see its face but all I see is nothing
While this happens Ginger doesn’t even bark
Nor come into the bedroom to rescue me from something
The whole experience takes less than a minute
But it feels like forever
The only part that moves are my eyes which I can’t forget
How rapidly they move up and down asking myself when will it be over 
I’m scared to sleep tonight scared of sleep paralysis
Scared of what it possesses

Be

Be!
Be a thinker & a lover of wisdom
Be what The Supreme Being Wants you to be.
He Can Makes you whatever He Wants!
Yet, He Wants you to freely move up
To Test you! with all the things He Has Given you
To see! It's up to you
To be or not to be!

Trait

Steps help move up or down
Spoil not cham with a frown;
Gait, speech reveal class
Pace, pause reflect class.

The Lonely Girl Hears the Sirens, Do You?

I carved a path for the spiders
In hopes that a friend will come by
Or that a friend will stay. 
For i am no longer accompanied by my old pals
As their days move up the branch to see the sky better
My days slip back down the trunk
Like a slug on a rainy day. 
My normal necessities evolved my life into a bore   Cities, trains, cafes, the forest
All invite me to play but i am tired
After a no-work day. 
Those numbered days in my brain lead me to a confusing conclusion;
Is it until i meet a new friend or an old friend based on illusions?
