I Built a Fire

Built a fire on a frozen pond Ice melted and cracked I fell through and froze to death

Robin's Love Poems: The Autumn of Our Vows

The hearth grows cold where
once our futures burned,
Unspoken grief fills every
empty space,
We weep for lessons that we
learned too late.

Built

Built


Build a promise or fake a love life.
The choice is yours,
But of course,
Be sure.

Premium Member Friendship built on sand

thought i'd stand by you
while you lied and cheated

you thought i'd watch
and help along the way

well you thought wrong
i want no part of it

Premium Member Bicycle Built for Three

We're as happy a family as can be.
Look out your window and you can see
us riding the New York City blocks
in our knickerbockers and striped socks
on a bicycle built for three.

Premium Member Built To Fry

Built to last
The train rolls by 
So close little clutter rattles
The walls seem to bow
Oh but what was I saying
Damn it’s gone beginning to end
To be remade anew
Oh fish tell me true

Premium Member I Have Built the Wall

I have built the wall
With my hands I laid the bricks
Mortar mixed with blood and tears
I built the wall high
You could have hidden the bricks
This wall will never crumble

Unicycle Built for Three

A unicycle built for three,
Would be a sight to see.
Where would they sit?
Would they all fit?
From sitting they’d all be free!

A gale can't blow down
Its the type of stability
Two people in love could ever hope for or attain
A definitive blueprint which to create a perfect union; a love built to last

Premium Member Life Is Built

Life is Built
       
        Open Terrace is made of Love and Dream.
        Destiny is the Glass- Ceiling.
        Emotion and Passion have done painting 
        Frustration is the door to escape.

Built

Built-up another
one to each other
a scene not recognize
growth, as one spoke
to obtain, non-revoked
hidden behind the scene
strength in the mist
not just one, but two
time for owning
in the midst as other growing.

Ford Dear

Ford dear
Vision in my eyes
Sounds in my ears 
Drowning in my tears
She steady coming near
Never causing fear 
Wind in my beard 
Smooth changing gears
When takin care my steers
She’s my Ford
She’s my Ford 
Tough but dear

Built For Better

Built for Better



we're failing to fit in with

this world's standards



but truthfully we

were never meant to



because we're built

for such finer things



and not by those

worldly trappings

I Was Not Built To Be a Slave

I was built never to be a slave
I was built to be free
I was built to resist oppression
I was built to kill or destroy oppression
I was built to disobey tyranny
I was built in the image of God
To glorify God
And live human enough
Never ever to be a slave

We would have built

A green gust dancing 
amidst the leaves of ferns 

In the obscure dawn, 
the birds are all restive. 

Had we all been 
a swarm of unleashed birds 

For sure we would have built 
a Mediterranean sea

Premium Member Farewell

Born two centuries yesteryear A young pair who passed through Ellis Built a frame home with rose trellis Intertwined blooms like them bound dear. Last roses on their headstones rest, Grandparents by whom I was blest.

Sand Built Mansion

My sand built mansion
Will one day sink in sand
And all my passion 
To yonder land
Whether or not you have seen me before
You shall see me no more
But I wont remain in the dark
I shall take another form and come back
I shall live forever
After that carnal life is over

Spike took a hike

Mike liked his bike

They looked just alike

Mike booked with bike


Spike looked for bike

Mike booked from Spike

Spike liked his trike

Spike booked from tyke


Tyke looked for trike

Trike booked with Spike

Mike looked like Spike

Mike booked for trike

Built To Soar

from dreams she will be made
built to set the spirit free
constructed with illumination
coated with creativity

so carefully fit together
she'll be prepared to soar
to the limits of imagination
flying through closed doors

propelled by the fuel
of the inquisitive mind
ready to explore 
the secrets of mankind

The Wall Built

This wall of sensations,
Built electronically,
Footsteps walking towards it,
Calling your name,
Thinking is that me?
What do we have here?
The veins inside,
The stream that's running through,
To the other side,
The dark shelf,
Anthologies,
Spine tingling,
When do you open your eyes,
For all the fright to collide....

A Palace Built Within

There lies within a palace
Crafted by my mind
Fashioned by the mastery
Of my own design
Nothing is impossible to me
I can fly and glide beneath the sea
Building there I find the life I need
Linked solidly, sublime
The best artistic manifest
Shows forth between the rhyme
I’ve been there
I have seen it
Crafted in my mind

How Life Is Built

In order for something to be born 
Something must die 
This is how nature lives, the world 
This is how all life is built
You can't leave and stay at the same time
It is important to cross the threshold
Hang the lock 
Be able to turn away 
From things that no longer benefit you
Then the world will open new doors 
You can move on.
