Burden Sublime

The weight of your words…

Premium Member Afraid of This Big Lizard

heaviest lizard intimidates me
just how heavy can a giant beast be?
a curly buffalo eater
has gulped down brother Peter
Komodo dragon I now run from thee

Premium Member Heavy Heart

Far deep within the realms of this heaviest heart of mine,
There is more to everything I have ever said to you.
Here in my heart lies hurt feelings, on the other side of this line.

Premium Member The Sun's Face

The Sun selects her cheeriest face
   when heaviest rains abate

There's nothing worse
   than daylight gray

as with bated breath
   here on Earth
      the Sun's face
         ~ we do await

Tritium

The heaviest isotope of hydrogen,
It has one proton, two neutrons,
And one electron.
If you forget the mass number is three,
Use the prefix tri
You’ll remember the mass,
And the chemistry test you’ll pass.

Iron Is Iron

One pound of cotton,
One pound of iron,
Which is the heaviest asked A,
Both are equal,replied B,
A,hit the head of B with the pound of cotton,
Smiled B,
Then iron,
Didn't cry B this time but said "iron,iron"!

Premium Member Poetry

Poetry is good. The rhythm of the words can reach within the heaviest hearts. The meaning of the words free spirits to dance in the moonlight, or between earthen boundaries, if released to pass thru the gateways of the heart.

Silence

Somehow, silence speaks more than words.
Sometimes it's peaceful, sometimes it's not.
Sometimes, it's the calm before the storm.
And sometimes, it is the answer to the war.
But silence- it speaks the heaviest words of them all.

Premium Member Hearts-

Open, humble, heroic, open healthy hardened hearts open, happy honest hearts, open hungry hearts Open human hard hearts upon heavy, heavy heaviest hearts

I Continue To Walk


With my heart hovering
On the heaviest roads
East, West, South and North
I falter and fall 
But continue to walk

As a bird who carries his nest 
In his heart along 
I continue to walk

With a hearty smile 
as I recall the eternal call
I continue to walk

Chokri Omri

Busted Flat

Busted Flat …

Poetic busking
the white lines advancing

A voice on the asphalt
the rubber — the road

(Dreamsleep: December, 2023)



The Heaviest Silence

Oh, to be cursed
with the burden of truth

Without the propensity
—to speak it out loud

(Dreamsleep: December, 2023)

Premium Member Meeting a Sun Fish

Heaviest bony fish at five thousand pounds
The ocean sunfish is the roundest of the rounds.
Looks like a giant head maneuvered by a frilly tail.
Eats jellyfish by the dozen, ten foot long is the male.
It cannot move daintily, delicately or very fast.
If you meet one in person, the memory will no doubt last.

Premium Member I Refuse To Work Said the Ant

I refuse to work today said the miserable ant
As he began to hoist the heaviest crackers
onto his broken, torn sensitive back
startling his comrades who reported him
for being lazy and trying to get out of work
which annoyed them in every direction 
as they marched in a line to the pink side of the blue bowl.

Premium Member Kais Wares

Kai put the koi on first
Their bags were the heaviest
With all the water weight

Next he attached his bags of goldfish
Luckily, he lived in a town where people understood
His need to sell, and the need for the fish to survive

Kai pedaled his bike to the market
Hoping not to encounter practical jokers or thieves

The Heaviest Bull World Record

Three thousand, eight hundred and forty pounds
The record for the heaviest bull alive
Belonged to a Chianina named Donetto
At the Arezzo exhibit in 1955

Nobody in Italy could imagine
What it must have cost, just to keep him full
Three thousand, eight hundred and forty pounds
Now, tell me that's not a lot of bull!

Premium Member A Graceful Grief


Gentle mist falls, breathless as the heaviest rain
Melting through my struggles, the darkness and pain
While I can never imagine what it is for the leaf
Who falls quietly to the earth in its trembling grief
Coloring the heart of autumn winds with spiritual notes
Blowing like the crisp, cool leaves who ride the winds coats

Pocket Watch

I want to hold time in my pocket
Hide it away for another day
Pull it out maybe put it on a locket
Observe my cache in the shade

Store away my redeemable hours
The minutes, the seconds
Even in the heaviest of showers
Look how they glisten; I reckon
This could all be for nothing
But surely many I beckon
With my siren song of endless time

Forever In Dream

Not knowing Weighs the heaviest on the mind For the dreams of what could be Occupy the very core of being Allowing not the breath of free time My mind seems Forever set on dreaming The constant wishing of changed color A penetrable hue of fragrance and emotion The very offerings that breathe life Back into my dying heart and mind

Premium Member For Those Who Care

May you meet new people who will expand your life.
Allow me to help lift your burdens when they feel heaviest.
Teach and share the meaning of caring unconditionally.
Let my words cause a smile, or laughter, once in awhile,
and somehow help you believe in things unseen,
by expanding your heart like never before,
so you remain optimistic in spite of it all.

Premium Member Serenity

With a still small voice, 
As if in Gethsemene,
I am given a choice
To allow for serenity.

It is there
I feel alone.
It's a place
So unlike home.

It is there
I take the high road.
It is there
I carry the heaviest load.

But serenity is my reward.
It's my brand new start.
This place I leave no longer alone.
This place of belonging, home.

Premium Member Guess John Minnochs Weight

Do all people want to be famous?
Maybe when they are kids.
I wonder if John did.
It’s difficult to tell.
No one recorded his feelings.
He is known to be the heaviest human recorded on record.

Care to guess John Brower Minnoch’s weight?
Six hundred pounds?
No
Nine hundred?
Sorry
Twelve hundred?
If history is to be believed, John weighed fourteen hundred pounds.

On the Sparrow's Beak

A passerine bird,
One of the smallest of sizes,
With a beak almost minute.
On its beak you can count many;
the tiniest to biggest,
the slimmest to the fattest,
the lightest to the heaviest,
the ugliest to the finest,
the sourest to the sweetest,
the slowest to the swiftest.
All on this paltry beak,
it houses them all.
And what do you liken this beak to?
A lad's might,it is.

Bleeding Shame

I write to impress,
Nothing less than self-humiliation will do
Humor in the darkest form
Suffering at our own hands,
Deriving pleasure from our pain
Painting the sky black with our fears;
Our sins drawing blood from our shame
The heaviest penance is that of our own
We lay crushed
Dying,
A victim of homicide
Killed by the crimes of a man,
Existing only in a world where we cannot

Australia

A continent on fire 
fueled by fossil fuels.
Mother nature will not cry
our stupidty she will not  deny.
As nature pays a heavy price
to add a bonus on some  fat cats pay .
All creatures great and small 
payed a heaviest of tolls.
Will the politians never see the light
and take on the global warming fight.
Or will they just  throw another burger 
on the charcoal powered  barbie.

Longest 7 Days

With the heaviest heart, I wrote you the hardest letter I have ever written.
I read it to you face to face, pages trembling, eyes overflowing 
Knowing in my head that I need to let you go...
Wanting in my heart to hold onto you even tighter...
Granting a week's grace to digest and respond, I fear that you may not
And so it becomes 
the longest 7 days my life
