Overflow Poems

OVERFLOW OF A SATURATED SHATTERED HUMAN MIND



       This divine spark of ours, super informed
        with images, sounds, words, so many
      poor human mind, becomes numb, clogged...

LOVE OVERFLOW


       


             Loving too much
              can even be bad...
 that's the bad that does so much good!

Overflow

A bleached blonde sunset that arrogates my depression.
I've outgrown the inability to smile at the joke with no punchline.
Listening to the noise on the radio is enough to bring anyone to an emotional crash.
My phone weighs much less without the numbers that did not belong in the first place.
I've found nirvana in making a new best friend in myself.
Turn inward for inner peace and the rest will fall into place.

I'm scared about a bladder overflow.
I'm recently leaving through your scarecrow.
Be shrewd if you go around the corner.
Yellow snow should serve as eye-opener.

Overflow of Thoughts

Every human being
              is gifted ...
              The greatest proof is
              the thought ...
              Ideas spring up,
              swarm constantly ...
              Not every Idea become words,
              not all  notions Thrive on action..!

Kick the leaves, let bodies grow
Framed in Autumn showers glow
Rake the peak of ‘tober’s show
Pumpkin hues a zephyr throw
Saffron shake of candy snow 
And brittle brown tornado 
Child’s reaction blow by blow 
Swirling, twirling, vertigo 
Rosy leapers letting go 
Roars Calypso overflow

Rivers and Streams Overflow

R-ivers and streams overflow, 
E-verlasting graces above; 
N-ever ever running dry, 
E-ven the Almighty's love. 

O-ctober fourteenth morn 
B-lessings grow and glow; 
E-very drop of rain has caused 
R-ivers and streams 
O-verflow.

Obama Overflow To Trump

Obama Overflow To Trump

There of course are many things we know;
From Obama Trump experienced overflow;
Trump bone spurs,
People up stirs;
Ability Obama gave for economy to grow.

Had to get this off my chest before I began
my Saturday chores. Hope you don't mind
my limerick style that I have down flat.
Of course, there may be a few wrinkles here 
and there.

Places In My Mind

As I travel through the places in my mind
Like all the faces on the vine
The memories aren't all mine
Ready to go on the drop of a dime
When we have to walk this line

Coasting through life in a whole new timeline
That will no doubt realign our direction
When we meet it without exception
To discover it's just one big reflection 
That will be met with our loving affection

Where I would like to unwind
All these thoughts that I don't want to bind
Because It helps me define
The one who I see dancing in front of me
Makes my spirit soar so free
As I swing from tree to tree

Trying to get to that happy place in my mind
To let go of these memories 
That are not all mine
I would rather maintain this down low
So we both come to know
This love that is pouring out on overflow

Where our hearts come together
In hopes, our love will grow
Taller than the trees
As sweet as pie where our love will kiss the sky
Baby, where you will electrify
The outcome when we testify
Our love hits the bullseye

Wishes Overflow

I captain the words to suit my mood
  to curse or then to pray

And document those things I feel
  to others then to say

I choose each verb and noun with care
  and place them side by side

Reminding all of what we share
  those knots we must untie

I move the future to the past
  the present to the front

As what most lingers, then to last
  the handle to the pump

Juxtaposing based on need
  the lines as rivers go

Where currents cast my dreams adrift
  —and wishes overflow

Overflow

when something 
comes to destroy 
the peace that lays
within the sea of the 
soul never allow the 
storm to come and cause the sea 
to overflow and flood the land 
of positivity that had 
been established over a short 
period of time
