Preyer Poems | Examples


Premium Member It's What They Do

Its' what they do

A rat gnaws
a snake slithers
                   ........it's who they are

The jackass brays
without logic or reason
                            ........loving its own voice

The wolf howls
pleading with the moon
                            .......a preyer unanswered

The hyena laughs
without provocation
                       .........a jester's nightmare

The eagle shrieks
in frightful free fall
                      ...........a silent mouse freezes

The mocking bird mocks
all who are not like him
                         ...............for he has no song

Angels

Angels of light.
Angels of flight.
They protect us all through the night.
Evan know there not in sight.
angels of harmony i bow down, for you came and healed my heart.
angels of harmony i ask you now protect those who are earth bound.
I can't see them but i know they are there thats when i send each tiny preyer
closing my eyes and taking a breath i can see them standing there
reaching out to hold my soul to heal this heart and make me whole
i ask u know i'v been helped, 
help the family that i love so to show them mercy
and bring them home.

Pray Or Be Prey

If you don't pray,
You will become prey
And may be devoured.
But when you're a prayer,
You can resist the preyer
When you're empowered.
