Liars Dwell

Is the truth even electable
   redemption now a sin

The confessional a voting booth
  —where liars dwell within

Dwell For Spell and Avoid Hell

Dwell for Spell and Avoid Hell

Here on earth is where  we would dwell,
While time spent had been a short spell;
Bible read;
Prayers said;
Stayed out of trouble and avoided hell.

You Can'T Dwell On It

You can’t dwell on it
For it gets to you in the end
With each day 
You sit and think of it
Its harder to defend
And you feel isolated
So move on
Each day is a bright and new one.

Our Creatures Dwell I

little brittle bones
break on ancient stone 
left there by my monsters 
we sleep where our creatures dwell 
in the corners of my minds eye
deep dark shadows grin
something wells
as little bones brittle bare
break on ancient stone

Premium Member Dreams Dwell

For in dreams, we enter a world that is entirely our own.
          ~J. K. Rowling

Dreams dwell in the place nostalgia leaves empty,
the silver space between late autumn and and winter’s embrace~
please, make my bed of dreams beneath the old willow tree.

I Miss You

I fell in love with a girl
Mirthful strength of hers I admire

Isle of the merciful she now dwell
Soaring up above my realm

Startling me by her extinction
Yes! She was a girl with unfulfilled mission

Of all things I wish I could say
Unto her soul I pray every day

In Perfect Peace Is Where We Dwell

precious lord
you are 
the 
captain of my ship
you 
put a faith bubble 
around me
so many blessing
around me lord
to 
navigate around the world
to 
spread the good news
through
the 
holy gospel
in 
perfect peace
is where we dwell
thus
sharing the bread of heaven

You Dwell In My Heart

They say you dwell in heaven
They say you dwell in shrine
It’s not easy to reach to you	
You are a power divine 
But I feel you here in my heart

You are a hope of ray
You are in my every pray
You are the power which make 
Me stand alone and stay
You are not mine part
You always dwell in my heart

Dwell On

Boredom,
Lack of Freedom
Tabula rasa gone
Counting countless days when I yawn
‘Dwell on!’

Blank slate
Where’s my big plate?
Need to satisfy him.
Just playing some games. Screw the gym.
‘Dwell on!’

Silence
No compliance
The void kissing my mind
While hugging me tight from behind
‘Dwell on!’

In Memory's Embrace

In Memories of dead

Many questions arise-
Where does he reside now?
Are we in his sight?
Oh! Where have you gone?

You were once among us ,
And yet alone.
If only I could met you once more,
To ask and understand.

But now , you're within nature,
Everywhere,elsewhere,
And yet, to be found nowhere.

Premium Member What Is This Place Demons Dwell-

Where do demons dwell; Just what is this place; Just what is it called; sinners skin peeling drenched scarring Hybrid heat burning & fires Eternally devoured What is this place What is the space Where demons dwell

Listen to poem:
Who Heaven Dwell
David J Walker

Those of us
	Who heaven dwell
Upon the earth 
	A living hell
And hear the voices
	From afar
Huddle beneath 	
	The evening star
Await the fate
	A Bleating moan
Interpret late 
	The words unknown
And call it all
	Deciphered mail 
For those of us 
	Within its spell
Those of us
	Who heaven dwell

Don'T Dwell

Don't dwell on things you can't change.
Only worry about what you can change 
 and do something about.
Think of what you have
Think of things that make you happy
Think of things you wouldn't change
Now breathe.
Don't let your emotions control you.
Keep your head up.
You have strength within.
And no matter what,
 Don't hide that smile.

Where Does Doubt Dwell?

Not between heaven and earth,
but between “yes” and “why.”
Not in the mouths of philosophers,
but in the wounds of those who had no time to read.
Doubt is a woman with bound hands
who waits for me night after night
to say I no longer love her.
But I come,
and keep silent,
and lie down beside her
like beside a mother who forgot to give birth to me.

Where the Sad Spirits Dwell

An icy zephyr 
Bestows the night 
An empty house 
A not taken heart 
The fire illuminates 
An unsolicited dark 
The haunting embarks 
On its nightly trek 
At the unchanged time 
I've come to expect 
Appearance not subtle 
From the hell they arise 
All malice as seen 
Flares in their eyes 
Alone in a dungeon 
At the bowels of hell 
No respite for me 
Where the sad spirits dwell

Come! Dwell! God's Paraclete Spirit, divine!
Release tensions and turmoil that entwine!
Cleanse each black cloud of gloom! Make the light shine!
Come! Dwell! God's Paraclete Spirit, divine!
Thoughts of ego that says 'me' and 'mine',
Give way to love, the universal sign,
Come! Dwell! God's Paraclete Spirit, divine!
Release tensions and turmoil that entwine!

Premium Member Don'T Dwell On It - Magicicada 13

give priority
to veggies . . . 
weight will drop right off

June 24, 2018 
For Maureen McGreavy's MagiCicada 13 - Body and Mind Poetry Contest

All my life I struggled with counting calories, different diets, etc. When I stopped stressing and just emphasized in my life consuming more salads & other veggies, particularly at dinner time, I got much better results! My tip for those interested!

Best not to dwell on the reasons why

When blessings come our way,
Best not to question why,
It will only fry our brain, 
Without relieving the pain,
For those who have not been blessed in this way.

When blessings do not come our way,
Best not to question why,
It will only fry our brain,
Without any gain,
Only showing envy the light of day,
And putting out the welcome mat for hatred will not help in any way.

5 Words To Dwell Upon- 5 Words Contest

(5 Words to Dwell Upon)

Though once I was homeless, 
 Twas my diagnosis,
 That I might once again rise form the ashes like the phoenix.

Though did I rise again,
 Twas more like a butterfly,
 Lifting itself from a dandelion after a long respite.

~RC


(Diagnosis, Homeless, Phoenix, Butterfly, Respite)


Dear Dr Diagnosis
Homeless on Mulberry Street
No Respite for Plato
I THE PHOENIX
Oh dear my, Butterfly

In grit and guts does hope dwell

Hold thy hope, happy scene shall come,
To parched and keen, ocean shall come.
Rest nor relax O wayfarer,
Thy dream with joy within shall come.

Rakh hauñslaa, voh mañzar bhi ayegaa,
Pyaase ke paas chalkar samañdar bhi ayegaa,
Thak kar na baith O mañzil ke musaaphir,
Mañzil bhi ayegi aur milne kaa mazaa bhi ayegaa.
