Orientated Poems | Examples

MOVE ON

My loves we must move on, forward through all the thorns. 
Lets work on us, and become strong, and reach for the long dreams we have. 
Yes we can, reach for the stars, and live in happiness and bliss forever. 
Be clever like a lever, with all your dream in hand, run forward with the speed of a warrior that has a plan.
We can do this by staying on track, being goal orientated, and having a plan. 
Loves, don’t get lost, stay focused, and look for your path, it will be light and gold, and stand out in your mind. 
Try and try again, if you fall off the plan, you are a wonderful creation, and all your dreams can be made just by you following a clear plan. 
Moderation, is a good plan, only do what you can, then go back and work on it again and again, until you know it’s the best you can. 
Don’t drink or smoke or anything else that might make you choke. 
Choose something other than a vice that will cost you your life. 
Loves I will pray for you, sending you warm thoughts and love on your path throughout this life. 
May God be with us today and all through our life.

No matter whichever way you are orientated,
It is all the same; true love and physical attraction expressed.
Even if a choice, it is your blank canvas meant to be painted.

Not done yet

Not done yet 

Jason Doig joined the South Australia Police as a cadet in 1989
Commencing his service as team orientated officer so inclined
Between 1995 to 1998 he served as a Naval Reserve diver too
Giving his time and skill for Australia freely as his duty to do
But he was not done yet  

He served the Luncindale Community for twelve years 
An ideal country police officer and quintessential bloke without peer
As the bedrock of his Community he was always there
His creed was kind, caring, generous and unique to care
But he was not done yet

Jason was adventurous by habit in all he’d do
He lived his life by his creed all the way through
Taken by an assailant and his duty met
It was clear in this time that he was not done yet….

© Paul Warren Poetry

For Brevet Sergeant Jason Doig South Australia Police killed by assailant’s bullet on 17 November 2023 at Lucindale, South Australia . RIP your duty done.

Air

The space animated. The place migrated. 
          The taste of possibility, pigmented, 
          invisibly, orientated by shifting atmosphere, 
          arousal, of fickled nothingness'?
          impregnated?

Beach Ballad

When she crossed her legs,
electric silk 
slipped over thigh orientated beguilements.
Her shoulders were disrespectful.
The massed pipes and drums
of her braided hair played upon my mind.
I was alone for a thousand years
drinking her in.

I wanted to ask her
but what?
Besides it was then she looked my way
with a cool ‘muck-you’ stare.

Back at the hotel,
my reflected sun-slapped face,
seemed as unstable as sand,
yet the syllabary of her thighs
had so much more to say to me.

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

Bermuda Daydreams

When she crossed her legs,
an electric silk slipped over the jewel-studded sides
of a blushing chameleon.
Sand clung to her thighs,
a tapestry of flaxen crumbs on amber skin.

Thigh orientated beguilements
spread their plush landscapes.
Her shoulders were disrespectful –
I liked that. The massed pipes and drums
of her braided hair marched out of sight -
muted instruments of mutual destruction.

I imagined an emerald turtle born from a native legend
lived in her watchful heart.
I was alone for a thousand years
drinking her inward.

I wanted to ask her
but what?
I guessed that whatever her answer,
there would be no sign of small pink wings
and cutesy fairy smiles.
Besides it was then she looked my way
with that cool ‘-you’ stare.

When I got back alone to the hotel,
not having said a word to her,
I looked at my reflected sun-slapped face,
it was as unstable as dry sand,

yet the syllabary of her thighs
had so much more to say
as my face fell apart onto the wet floor-tiles.

Premium MemberHomesickness

Homesickness has me
Ogling old photographs,
Missing all that reminds me of home.
Echoes of a time long ago
Still, rings silently in my heart, and
I long to return to my roots and
Come home to my family;
Kick back and reclaim my youth.
Nowhere else feel like home;
Everything in the city is,
Self-serving, corrupted, or
Sexually orientated; God, I miss home!

Premium MemberLeviticus His Abiding Call

be holy for I am holy

our Lords spoke to Moses

           of priests
           &the holy
sacrifices&
               cleanliness
               &laity in worship
orientated for all

our Lords spoke to Moses

of the presence
               of God
permanent 
              yet localised
a tent of appointment
a visual rendez-vous
to tabernace anew

our Lords spoke to Moses

to be holy
            not commonplace
purified
sanctified
       a perpetual call
                               to all

our Lords spoke to Moses

of sacrifice for sin
supposing of blessing
&curses
             a twin

our Lords spoke to Moses

of allegiance&redemption
in
    covenant&pledge
    changing of ways
&
   reciprocation
                      instead

our Lords spoke to Moses

in
   scripture inspired
of love
         to others
                        neighbours
heartfelt
with strength
                   mind&soul
to
seek out
            completeness
divine grace
face-face

Bob snowman was famous all over the town
Was fun orientated, behaved like a clown
One day on the frost
His balance he lost
Then tumbled and landed legs up and head down!
