In Retrospect
Why are we fighting each other? We are here to unite, understand and learn. In the end, it won't matter who has what, it's here and now that we make a difference. In Retrospect In a hundred years from now, all of us will be dead and gone. Strangers will be living in our homes and our...

In retrospect I wish I’d smacked a few smug faced intellectual bullies gloating bathed in their self-centered superiority. The more physical I was devious enough to redress given time and opportunity and the limits of schoolyard dictates There is a satisfaction in settling a score even when the opponent Isn’t aware that they’ve just been bested. Revenge may be best served cold yet justice should always be warm and present. John G. Lawless 3/16/2021...

In Retrospect
We were all such happy people Before the fall, atleast for some There was never any chance for change To grace the lesser of our race. We are all such boring people Are we all? Atleast for some There was never any chance for change To see the error in our ways We are all so full of anger, fear...

IN RETROSPECT I remember, two years ago, today I wrote my first poem “Reflect” in my first self-published book “Love and Celebrate You”. In the silence of the night before, I was pondering and asking what could I do that would better something or somebody for I had already done my part of raising my four children. I thought it was my...

Rumination
Rumination Let your heart take around Of the deep within you; Let it dive into the memories Fond and dry, deep and blue; Let it search the unknown You buried for the known; It's the time to retrospect And cry out your voice loud, Because it's you who matters Not because a lot you chatter But to take the responsibility And be the change, For you could nurture...

My Life In Retrospect
If I could travel back in time and change the paths I’ve taken Some changes could be quite sublime and others be forsaken But everything feels just right and nothing would I alter My destination is yet in sight, so my path shall never falter I’m sure we all have made mistakes, some much more than others Some may have...

Retrospect In June
There comes a time in our lives when we will see the forest for the tree's. The faint, constant voice within our hearts that has beckoned us to turn inward and seek the answers of our soul we will no longer deny. We will learn of the place that cradles our aches, our desires, our...

A Broken Heart In Retrospect
Let us sit upon the ground and talk of broken hearts. We'll drink wine from a paper cup and smile now and then. Was it the first or second time that broke into parts A heart so young and eager to please and please again ? My heart is old and scarred now and it no longer aches. Fill my...

Retrospect
My senses recalled last summer When we met at the coffee shop I couldn't tell what was on your mind When our table was your stop But now these times are useless what we try to do today 'seems forever hopeless To carry on this way Not knowing one day later if together we will be or if your heart will find its place in another...

In Retrospect I'm glad I chose friendship in the midst of disagreements. In Retrospect I’m glad I realized I wasn't perfect and took ownership of my flaws. In Retrospect I’m glad I took the time to find me although I still discovering myself. In Retrospect I’m glad I realized how important it is to confess LOVE as often as you...

Future Retrospect
Yes, I have often seen, the early rising sun when I wake to witness, another day begun. But when I see tomorrow’s, it will surely be the best! Yes, I have seen the Seasons, in ritual parade, adorned in all their beauty, a Master’s hand displayed. Spring brings us great pleasure. She’s a most welcome guest. Dressed overall in...
