Short Constructing Poems

Memorial Day 
mother nature’s reckoning 
is gain worth such loss
de-constructing life with limb
Collision course toward ourselves

Leaves tumbling onto a green carpet
constructing a colorful scene.
Illuminated brightness
radiant energy;
spinning and spinning
October light
glittering 
in the
sun....

Here I am

Looking at the world’s mirror

Finding myself

at the center of a maze

Constructing the roots of a dream

For a nationless society

By the power of peace

quixotic dreamer
constructing silver windmills
when she looks at him

rose colored glasses
optimistic attitude
giving them a chance

forever unite
a starry eyed realist
rebel who needs love...

Born
Live
Still living
Fighting for recognition
Living
Constructing more to feel relevant
Still living
Fighting to create something epic
Living 
Looking for the end 
to my beginning
Living
To get ahead
Living
To leave a legacy
Living
To die...

I hear a gentle voice,
While my heart began to beat,
I proceeded through the soft, white, clouds,
For then we shall meet,
Our hearts started to unite ,
While we glared up at the sky,
Observing the stars constructing shapes,
Never longing to say good-bye....

Against the grain

Resistance to the

Appearances of

What is undesired..

Constructing a future

With a pleasant

Granular flow..

The plan of a

Reformer

Progressive

Self helper..

Stories of resistance

Against the grain

Already freedom......

old
                 tattered, decrepit
     replacing, discarding, abandoning
renewal, replacement, invention, novelty
       inventing, constructing, building
                    current, fresh
                          new

Silent screams echoing throughout my soul, 
turn to white noise after a while, 
constructing impenetrable walls, 
yet unable to crack a smile. 
Happiness such a memory, 
if it was ever attained at all, 
lied to by heart and brain, 
as the trust leaves during the fall....

yes mein friend
i like the muddled wasp
to only feel the spinning
whirling breathing
that the buzzing fiend sure sculled
to breathe and steam routine 
around sullied crawly roads
constructing measure
as my paper takes off

yes mein friend
i like the idea
of being like the wasp...

A man's work is his kingdom 
So I never stop constructing,
Equipping my throne 
With armor and weaponry,
Force field's and hidden nukes
But my garden green!
A lawn with lime flower petals 
Branched out trees,
The sky blue and sunny
I love my guardians,
And they never stop growing....

Building fantastic feats of engineering 
Constructing classic beats
For the inner hearing
I'm a pioneer of futuristic steering
Always greeted by superhero cheering

Or at least that's what 
I like to think up in my head
Am I writing in my dreams again
Or sending messages from the dead?...

the ants are busy
 engaging working, ripping
 and running building
~
tearing, constructing
harvesting bits and pieces
specks of food and things
~
and running building
engaging working, ripping
ever so busy

"constructing
an area to convey
the thoughts of many
sight for those
who want a world to be impressed
by the landscape of doing
they shall come and see
the sights that will make them
stand in this place and humble themselves
to the worship of people
manifested by the godman
who constructed it!"...

As poetic fruits,
Let us be stones of oneness;
Pillars of its words:-

Just as in nature,
life has its seasonal times–
constructing our growth:-

As is its nature,
Life has its sowing and reaping;
Its joys and sadness:-

As we plant our words,
may they be pillars of both
joy and awareness:-

Prone to portray an image to have it all figured out 
Externally put together while internally pulled apart 

Ready to take off armor and start letting down guard
Reinforcing interior instead of constructing a façade 

Possible to flip the script to stop putting on a show
Displaying my mess instead as an opportunity to grow...

A wakeful man riding
Constant terminal dusk
Coveting dawns glow

Conqueror of rapacity
Constructing his empire
Of gold and silvers avarice 

Feigning his thrill of life
So spuriously rehearsed
In his eyes they are trivialities

Only now he sees the truth
In the darkness of his sepulcher
Surrounded by his useless wealth...

It is the greed of man who ruins our earth
changing the natural course of rivers, 
constructing houses in areas of coastal erosion,
destroying our rain forests for filthy lucre.

Teaching traditional 
Is based on transmission
But is receiver tuned?
Cannot transmit culture.
Culture needs discovery.
A teacher must accept
To hear the students’ words
And work with their conceptions
Constructing  day by day.
No discipline succeeds
With rules imposed as truth.
Discussion is a need
To improve a conscious thought.
Become constructivists!...

The arch
in the targeted killing
was the bet when you
lost your virginity.

A slow dance
at the cold river of flesh,
with genitalia wiped off.
I was constructing-

your genome
from you saliva. Prayer 
was a form of begging
before an unpardonable sin.

The gradient
parting the hills will
find another arena
to start the game.

Creation's pigeon, flying to and from; gathering tiny bits of branches that she finds...
Constructing their nest inside this a building's niche; preparing, for her Autumn's child ?
Gracefully she glides without any cares as her heart upon nothing else; blue these skies
The sun shining bright; remembering her stars while catching a wisp, of His Summer's breeze....

They ride the waves of creativity,
hoping for that one elated moment of success.
Dreamers are the the future’s hope,
Their passion unfolds on canvas and paper;
sometimes, constructing universes.
Some dreams run deeper than the ocean,
like Manna from heaven, sent;
they pour through my soul, onto the page;
songs of joy and elation, fine euphora.

Almonds were enjoyed, and the nuts were crushed with a rock
Sleep in peace, our father, my mentor, our provider
Peace among the Angels, we will continue to cherish those fond memories.
Evening tide will go down with you constructing your pig pen
Greatness was defined by your achievements throughout your younger days
  Shall we evoke feelings of joy and celebration on this day?

my dendrite highway glides into spiritual realms
unbidden, unhurried, unsanctified by conscious me
meditative unawareness solidifies into dreams of the dead
bioluminescent shapes and songs form enticing my psyche
I slumber blissfully unaware and yet here is piece of me
The piece I am not in touch with during the daylight hours,
constructing, creating, and misconstruing my next day...

faeries create their own gardens in Liberty Loo
inventing flowers others cannot visualize
bringing their own hot pink fuchsia bugs too
constructing produce only they could fantasize

if you are lucky enough to get an invite to one
please ask if you can add a plus one for me
I have heard that Liberty Loo gardens are really fun
They even have flowers in natural blue said Laura Lee....
