Pondered Poems - Poems about Pondered

To my children, Have you ever pondered this
Ask yourself this everyday. Why in the world do I think this way? I think such awful things about me. And think highly of everyone else I see. But now let's turn it around to you. And recognize what you do. I should be my own favorite best friend. Today is the day that I shall begin. To myself today I just want...

Premium Member Wrapped in a secret day of thoughts, I pondered
Wrapped in a secret day of thoughts, I pondered, If I should overturn my soul, to wear it on my face as a garment. Would it have unfolded with stitch and patch apparent, Or perhaps its embodiment would be unimaginably elemental? I envision it otherwise, beyond breaks and wounds, I close my eyes and there appears a field of spring...

Moons Chasity
“The moon’s vision of humanity Was something that it once desired Tinkle, swoouf, it pondered As it’s luminescence gazed at its prodigious oceans The defunct dissection of the body fell into silence as it glanced back Clish, clash, it wavered It’s fluorescence gestured odiously Enraging it’s radiance with envy Woosh, clasps, oceans...

Poetry Pondered: For One In the Art Thereof
A Wordsmith’s pen Is mightier than the sword For he can turn a tricky word Into a verbal weapon And win the day against the hoard The words of the Bard It’s not very hard The turn of a friendly card The changing of the old guard The wicked witch is feathered and tarred The sky above is dark and starred It’s feeling out loud The dancing...

Premium Member A Willow Once Pondered
A Willow Once Pondered As I lay beneath this willow tree, cresting the banks of a nearby creek. Its budding branches swaying to natures whispered symphony, with a floral scent on a gentle breeze. Lilac, and jasmine oh how they fare so well. So soft is the sweet sound of a laughing butterfly as it bounds near...

Under the Iroko tree I sat and pondered As riotous thoughts held me hostage Making the thinkable and unthinkable Engage in brainstorming scuffle Under the Iroko tree as I sat and pondered The gentle breeze caressed my tired skin Wrestling my heavy eyelids into a deep sleep And face to face I came with the Creator of the universe "How are you...

A Pondered Moment
thoughts of you dance in my mind like wind through trees tossed upward in a breeze these fragmented memories twirl around pulled forth from where they once rested when i tucked them away so long ago... a storm as it passes mingles warm with cold excitement with fury fear with anxiety dark with light ...and then through all this rain i can taste the pain as my emotions bend like little...

Premium Member I Sat and Pondered
I sat and pondered the things I’d like to forget. There have been some bad times - Lost love, both romantic and familial, betrayals by a few I considered close friends, and the inevitable hardships of simply living life including its numerous moments of sheer embarrassment. I contemplated which of those many examples of life’s trials I would choose to completely forget....
