Prioritise Poems | Examples

Premium MemberFlicker-free flame

prioritise what we seek
plug every energy leak
negate senses, look within
make heart pure and free from sin

focus fixed on God alone
resolve firm, consciousness hone
then in childlike trust just rest
ascending in playful jest

IF THEY COME

If they come ? They will come ...for one of us !
Forceful to take over 
Offering strikes  of violent torchered wars .
For if they will come ? They will come for one of us ! 

Claiming to prioritise our human behaviour action's 
In life ...of our yesterday into our today's 
For if they come ? They will come for one of us ! 

Ready they will be standing bold in absurd form ready
To hear ,no negotiation , peace bell rolling off 
Our hearts soul of human tongue.
For war and punishment is all they already have in mind.
For if they come ? They will come for one of us !

Aggressive tactics...they are willing to explore .
Snatching our humanity , while they delivering their 
Intergration war upon our human right's 
For its empathy they lack and trauma 
Pain is all they willing to serve in an 
Empty prison sell , with no Lock's nor chains 
For if they come ? They will come for one of us ! 

Knowing they have to auto flame ,booms of fear 
For our voices is no longer ours, our tongues 
Along with thought's ,they have stolen away and the law of injustice gloom over the world ,darker then the living day .

For if they come ? They will come for one of us !

if there be nothing external we prioritise ~
truth about our inner Self we will then realise

Premium MemberAscent

Dipping in and out of spectrum of light,
which vibration should we prioritise,
given all heart seeks is heightened delight,
whilst mind is prone to weigh, measure and size?

Befriending silence, dwelling in the void,
sans thought flow, ego cravings too recede
and no longer by illusions decoyed,
light of Self manifests, taking the lead.

Divine entwined, now aligned with God’s mind,
benign bliss burns reshape our body urn
transforming us to be loving and kind,
reclaiming soul’s light as we slowly learn.

Life as impulsed will play out in space-time
but we’re enraptured by love’s sublime chime.

Premium MemberTake Stock And Prioritise


Sometimes we need to take stock and prioritise

Remind ourselves of what is truly of value and worth 

Have awareness and gratitude for life’s positives

Give the trivial and petty a wide berth


Humans are suffering absolute devastation

War, natural disasters, or just in daily life

Unjust …. without reason 

Complete loss, despair and sorrow runs rife


We need to remember our blessings

Blow the insignificant into the wind and let it fly

Stop stressing over the unimportant small stuff

We need to take stock and prioritise!

let us prioritise the comma, the pause ~

Premium MemberPrioritise

Take stock of whats truly important
Open your heart and eyes
Don’t bicker and sweat the small
Just  take stock and prioritise

Injustice runs rife on our earth
Wars, loss, human cries
Despicable acts of cruelty
Just take stock and prioritise

Put your energy into what truly matters
Be compassionate, kind, wise
Focus on being positive
Just take stock and prioritise

In the big picture of life
Let go or ignore small differences that arise
Be the bigger and better person 
Just take stock and prioritise

If one-upperence is that important to you
Take a good look at yourself here applies
Give our world, people in need your attention
Just take stock and prioritise!

Premium MemberThere Are No Shortcuts

When we are driven by greed and not need,
heart is consumed by cravings of ego
and although conscience continues to plead,
demons of desire we’re loathe to forgo.

If we but take time out and gentle thought,
shifting inward our attention focus,
we find we’re at peace, no longer fear fraught,
ambling joyfully along love’s locus.

Our soul becomes what we prioritise,
so if God search is our quest, let fears rest
and renounce desires as do sages wise,
that we may be by caress divine blessed.

There are no shortcuts; we must walk the talk ~
Choose love and light, oh hermit; do not balk

Hail Farmer Deity

Fantasy ...

Farmer chills
even on heap of chillies
After all, chilles are his babies
he nursed, made it ready for dishes 

Harvest joy, no less than a winner 
Time to voyage in blissful orbiter
Not as a toiling Farmer 
But as a harvesting Emperor 

Reality ...

Though deity of food, fodder
Farmers, unaware of own future 
Will crop be meager or bumper?
Will his efforts satiate hunger of poor?

Hail Deity of arable land treasure 
Prioritise resolving issues of farmer 
Else, Deity may curse in different manner
May quit farming, trigger epidemic hunger

Premium MemberMidweek Recitation

the class
   of summer fifty five
left to ply
   their business lives

the office     partners just two
pens   pencils nearly-new

clerking the lowest
                of the low
daily drudgery
  reality soon shone thru'
down the cellar
    my steps did wend
scuttle filled   fires to tend
the 'old man ' yelling
      'ere lad  chop chop
get me baccy
   from t'corner shop

wait-on
 tea-break brews'
                        in a stew
bellow the back-office crew
one more task
       to get done
   for the partner's son
another errand     no time to chat 
  he'd forgotten the fish
          for his wife's cat
then
    the switchboard clicked
           the doorbell chimed
skills to learn  juggle  prioritise
        which to choose   to attend
mail in the tray
            still to send

whew!
    nearly five  knock-off time
in view
    just one task  still to do
fetch the 'boss's evening  news

  was this really
           the career    to choose

Will You Rise Again

Will you rise - again? 
By Michelle Morris
17/07/2020

Will you rise - again? 
When life keeps knocking you down?
Will you stand tall each time?
Keep adjusting your crown?

Will you remember that 
you are special to this universe?
That you are needed come what may?
Will you prioritise your soul's evolution
each and every day?

Will you rise - again? 
And rise one more?
Until it's time to rise up to
heaven evermore?

Cost of Living

Cost of living.

The cost of living is getting me down, now my smile is always a frown.
Juggling bills, there's nothing left, before long I'm going to have to turn to theft.
Government don't understand or care that now my cupboard is always bare.
Pay rises are now a joke, don't they realise we're all broke!
They need to spend some time in my shoes before they prioritise company profits over our blues.
Because before long we will rise and put an end to all their lies!

Power to the people,
Chico.

Premium MemberVanity

Our hearts have huge capacity 
When used wisely
Yet so many hearts just hold
Selfishness and vanity

Love and attention for only self
No thought for another being
Visions only of appearance and ego
Eyes and heart unseeing!

Nothing natural in behaviour or looks
Applied and rehearsed for perception 
Vain and shallow hearts
Prioritise their own reflection

Self conceited swollen hearts
Never to experience the joy of giving
Unable to set narcissism free
To know the gift of charitable living!

Premium MemberStoop To Conquer

Discarding outer layer by layer,
mind body becoming a hollow shell,
choosing thus we are our own soothsayer,
sounding to the ego, final death knell,
even as bliss within begins to swell!
Path clear on choosing to prioritise
divine connect upon ceasing to size.
Our choice itself is our prayer fervent,
allowing magnetic bliss throb to rise.
We rest then thus in tranquil calm content.
