Short Definable Poems

Peace is what there needs to be
No more wars, guns or fights we’ll see
How many lost and lonely souls
Or death dealt with destruction as a goal

Fight for the right a slogan made
Definable and needed for this escapade
Is that a slogan or a price to cherish
If we march to our future we may yet perish....

Nothingness neither space nor time 
Between then and now, now and then
What was no more, is now...begin
Blank mind with no rhyme
Where there is not anything definable
Best by being here and being gone
Being neither off nor on
Nil, nada, maybe gaseous unrefinable.

Lighthouse

Time on the ocean uninspired  
The lighthouse beams immortalized
Reaching out forever, tranquility
Holding sky, sea, unencumbered 

Keepers watch gradual gravitation's 
Storm Forces, the ingredients 
The elements congregate, obedience
Lighthouse walls definable, unflappable

True beauty has no title.
To be beautiful is not to be objectified but in awe of. 
The beauty in your eyes....
Sunlight captured in a smile
Is beauty truly definable?
Or is it more? 

Beauty is a inspired feeling creating joy and excitement.
True beauty goes far beyond confidence 
Beyond the ability to describe... but feel. 

And in every describable way known....

You are beautiful....

What

What do I do with that love that filled the void
Do I fill it in with a choice that is inevitably yours
To do with it what meanderings in the mind one might contrive 
Which presents definable conditions
That define us inevitably 
What if the world really did revolve around you
Should I simply capitulate and resign
Or is there more to this than what I perceive
And simply leave it as it is
As what was originally conceived 
And leave...

Our eyes met, only for an instant
Yet something incredible had passed between us
It made us equal
More than a look, a shared moment
The exposing of each others souls 
The conveyance of some unspoken bond had formed
More than thought
More vague than definable
The essence of love
The pureness of heart
Desire, loyalty, trust, sacrifice
It was all there hiding in our eyes at that moment
And we knew it was beyond mere words
A thing that had to be felt 
And couldn’t be explained...
