Must Not Poems

Premium MemberWE MUST NOT FORGET

It’s great for America to savor our success in life…and the people who helped create them…
To remember our victories…and take time to celebrate them…

We are a country of the industrial revolution, 
free public schools, think of all the medical breakthroughs we’ve completed.
We landed people on the moon, were instrumental in the formation of Nato
and vital,

it must not go unsaid

It must not go unsaid.   

they were charming people who understood my concern
to have an ill wife who needed care more than
an old pension can bear was to invest with them in
a scheme that out great dividends

An investment where my uncle's son was the facilitator 
what else could go wrong, his skeptical heart
sensed a new spring

Our Children Must Not Be Lost

In shadows dark, a warning I must weave,
Of a predator whose presence makes hearts grieve.
A topic grave, a tale of caution, I implore,
To raise awareness, to keep innocence secure.

Beware, dear souls, the menace known as a pedophile,
Whose intentions cruel seek to defile,
The tender hearts and fragile trust of youth,
An abhorrent act, a breach of sacred

Premium MemberWe Must Not Wait

Why aren't words spilled, have voices stilled?
Our protest songs barely a squeak.
Have we grown inured to a hateful world,
now rest on our laurels, so to speak.

Does a hate virus pour an infectious spore,
allowing cacophony to poison the truth?
Words need to be aired, and honesty shared
if for nothing else, to rescue our youth.

Teens' past recalls Saturdays

Mediocre We Must Not Flatter

Mediocre we need not flatter
With laurels on a cheap platter:
Hero’s Effort make a matter;
A dropped metal’s heavy clatter…

“What is right” we foully batter
And Future Foundation scatter,
When save we just can The Latter 
And ensure True Victory later…

Mediocre we must not flatter:
On our clothes staining mud spatter;
Problems feed and they are fatter,
Tires allowed to be flatter...

Don’t

Premium MemberThe Red Chinese God-Less Agenda Part Two

According to CBN news Red China does have an ant-Semitic agenda! Plus an anti-Christian and anti-non hostile Muslims!  Clearly they want to impoverish and enslave the entire world. But other news sources are not addressing these problems. They are much more focused on the pandemic, " which was a Chinese Pearl Harbor" launched upon

We Must Not Burn Or Drop Statues

Burning and tearing down, statues,
is to erase history... and this
does not exist...
The past must serve as an example...
Statues that tell of human deeds
or defects... do not deserve so much attention,
but they tell what happened... So they must
have the context explained...Everyone has the right
to learn the truth...

Premium MemberWhile Death Waits, We Must Not

Like it or not, or try to will it away.
Death is directed to come our way.
It's unavoidable; so none need be dismayed.
It's coming whether we meditate or medicate.

It's not our fault or because we chose to stray.
On occasions, there might be a slight delay,
depending on God's mercy and if we pray.
But while death often waits,

I Must Not End This Story With a Happy Ending

I must not end this story
with a happy ending as many
stories that are written for money;
I have come to the conclusion
that I must not end this story
and enhance it with allusion!
My story began two summers ago
when the enchanting blueness of the August sky
was as vast as the serene sea below;
in November leaves change colors
bringing shivers

I Must Not Taste Your Tears

I know the bitterness
Of your soul,
I must not taste your tears-
To know.

It is clear in your weary-
Beautiful eyes,
And more scary-
To me you become when you put on the mask of smiles.

I must not feel-
The dampness of your pillow-
To know your heart was the kill-
Of sorrow.

Its a battle for a throne-
Between angels and demons.
I need not

I Must Not Kill Your God, I Swear

Do you know what God you have?

Do you know what God you need?

Have you tried to find your God?

Have you got anyone?

How is he or she?

If you know, describe.

If you not, hear from me.

Only the person who can find

A God for you is a creative writer.

That Which Must Not Be Looked Upon

Arise dead ones; the grave has been loosened,
It has been crumbled up, like a man crumbles up a dream.
I Looked into myself, to the emptiness that is me
A dream lies before me
My foot has crushed it and in anger I have buried it
I have closed myself to it
For a buried dream must not be looked
