Potential Poems - Poems about Potential

The Little Bead
We lie in our class, Not really intrigued or puzzled, By the mundane subjects that keep us muddled. Some may admire the beauty that surrounds us; Of the trees swaying in the winds, Of the cherry blossoms that drop, In the never-failing cold wind. The light which comes through our open doors, The light, not brighter than the people we have in store. We...

Canvas
I believe this space must be appreciated Blank, white, plain to see Why are we so quick to cover up That which is boundlessly free Look at this space between the frame Question, wonder, and consider Here is a blank field, free for the taking With potential untapped, as it were But perhaps something sad should be noted This canvas gets only one experience Endless...

Full Color
A morning walk, amidst the trees, beneath a sky of grey. The sound of crisp from frozen ground breaks silence in the air. I love the feeling that I get on such a winter day, where light through all the empty branches somehow takes me there. It makes me dream of times in spring where newness comes again. Can’t...

WE WERE ALL BORN TO BE GREAT
A spark within us, a flame that burns so bright Guiding us forward, through life's darkest night The voice whispers secrets, of a greatness yet unknown A declaration that stirs the soul, and awakens us to our throne. You, too, possess this greatness, a treasure yet untold A light that shines within, a story yet to be unfold Don't let the...

Your Potential Reality
I could compare it to being in a cardboard box, to be a boat that has to remain on the docks, to be a seed that will never see the sun, to have never kept going when someone said to be done. Not even knowing what was outside, not even knowing how it feels to ride the tide, not even knowing...

HOPE BEATS GIVING UP
I was once told that "THERE IS HOPE BEYOND EVERY STRUGGLE" Sometimes, I doubt those words & I wonder I've been struggling all these years But I couldn't find hope anywhere here Every time I approached her, she flapped her wings & flew so high Arms stretched out - but..... I couldn't reach her because I was so shy The talents...

Palette of Potential
There is always that person Who is the most important after parents. The one who thought us everything  And made us who we are now. The art of being a teacher  Is like eternity. The endless joy of progressions, Is the ecstasy of both. They are the God's Who transforms us into the best one's. Makes us prove ourselves.  And be proud of oneself's. For me, it's...

Unveiling Potential
The child, a budding blossom with potentials yet unfold Never out of sight like a rare gemstone giving a whisper of hope With laughter and innocence She explores freedom In the midst of little souls with innocent minds exploring the world of friendship Her beauty glowed like the lilies in it's full bloom Engrossed in the joy playing out in the...

Zazi-Knowledge of self-unleashes potential
Look in the mirror, tell me, what do you see? A soul once broken, yearning to be free. Reflections of pain, fear loud and clear, But there's power in you, greater than the fear. Unaware of the fate you hold inside, Though for a moment, your life did slide. I know it wasn’t part of the plan, But even the strongest must...

Sand Timer
Complacency is like a sand timer, each grain a moment slipping through, a slow trickle of potential, filling the void of inaction, until the last grain falls, and we find ourselves in the stillness, staring at the empty glass, haunted by the echoes of time gone, wondering where our dreams have fad ed...

Far from home
Weekend clouds remind me of home Deviating myself not to be alone The sky during sunset turns pale I fell into a loophole the day after. Many hold you during the first breath They will be there behind, watching you Even moments with mates never fade, You hope to have eternal time again. Get the one-time opportunity to excel Unleashing potential aligned with purpose Unveiling...

A symphony of talents, waiting to bloom, In every girl child, a vibrant room. Let education be the conductor's art, To orchestrate their dreams, and play their part.
