Opportunities Poems

Missed Opportunities

I believe life owed me no more than a chance,
at times my failures were of my own making.
Often times I’ve procrastinated at first glance,
and missed what God intended for my taking.

I deposited opportunities on the stove’s back burner,
with intent to address them some future day.
This wouldn’t happen to an astute discerner,
inattention always demanded a price

The Chance You Get

Take that chance every chance you get,
fall on your face and then forget,
live your life without regret,
take that chance every chance you get.

More risk by far to never make the run,
and lose your dreams one by one,
and forgetting each until you’re done.

Rather rise and embrace each day,
another step on your chosen way,
there’s no better time

Keep moving forward

                                     The sign
                

Weathered Opportunities

Beyond the relics stance tainted feigned glory, 
the achievers had gifted us their puzzles,
speckled based best in their field of theory,
like Baia hot baths, can't stomach its guzzles,
aloft or cavernous, or in a quarry,
like those Pyramid guys fuss up their fuzzles, 
as rock piles escape while history depicts,
the bookshelves leave those green stains with those

Career Of Opportunities

Don't worry you fail
They're many grass in the world
To pasture your cows.

Career Opportunities

I could find a job

If I only had the time 

But I sleep all day

OPPORTUNITIES

Some are common - others rare,
But opportunities are there
For us to claim, capture, declare...
Unless we simply stop and stare.

Long after our mother's girth...
Beyond our time of childbirth,
We have chances for all their worth
To make our way on planet Earth.

Some of them simply appear
During a meal... over a beer.
Others may not seem as clear
If we refuse

Retirement

You have worked hard all your life now it is time to retire
Go out and explore new things, surround yourself with what you desire
You are now entering a new phase of your life where you have more control over time and what you want to do with it
So many new opportunities will present itself, you

Best You Can Be

Despite all the political upheaval we still live in the best country around
Having the freedom to live our lives the way we want keeps us firmly on the ground
Many unique opportunities will cross our path along the way
Find things that will positively change  your life while keeping negativity at bay
Reach out and find the

Today

                                            Why today?
         

Full Potential

In life do we ever meet our full potential
Achieving this can only come from hard work, which is truly essential
Our hopes and dreams should become part of our reality
Only then can you become the person you want to be
You can not sit back and wait for it to come to you
Organize the path to take

The folly of a young man Lost opportunities, lost mom

The folly of a young man
Lost opportunities, lost moments

I have such a Beautiful Daughter, her name is Gail.
As her father, I was not there, miserably I did fail.

At ten, I left her in the clutches of anger and hate.
This I did, as her father, left her to the hands of fate.

A cruel thing I did

brilliant photographic opportunities

shells wandered out onto the beach in strips and slashes
from the air it probably looked like a Shriner’s convention
God was materializing in the east in the form of an explosion
I ran to get my camera, not knowing what to photograph first
such an amazingly brilliant photographic opportunity!

A song of my inner self

My height hurts my height,
I mean of freedom,
freedom in any angle,
mainly for my inner self.

Unjustly treated height,
opportunities between my fingers,
anger conquering my heart,
hurting that right of love,
mercilessly.

The time is near,
for heights to faint
and have no more control,
over love, trust and opportunities,
through sacrifices, sweat 
and sweet fruits.

Wealthy Opportunities

Sacred,
unlike corrupt,
wealth

May also become
mental health,
unlike pathology

Empowering compassion,
unlike disempowering dispassion

Co-invests in win/win 
economic relationships

Which may also become
co-operative political partnerships

Rooted in courageous
deep felt listening,
bicameral breathing

Pregnant pauses
open to silent
nonviolent procreation
of health minded
and grace embodied
deep multicultural re-connected
re-ligioned holistic meaning

Integrity's warm
unconditional potential
compassion of Left green minds
and integrity of Right red-kin-kind 
organic bodies
