Premium Member At the Very Least

Nothing was ever okay,
But at least it's okay now.

I was never okay,
But at least I can even still say, 
"I will be okay."


At Least Writing

Writing, writing, in a journal
I do have faith; even if a kerne
To go to college, have job, be free
Just how soon can you liberate me?l

Priest Who Was Least At a Feast

we prefer a priest
of all said he was the least
being at a feast

when we could connect
surely would always select
one which was correct

At Least I Feel Pain

Hurt but not broken,
Words worth but not spoken,
An urge to just feel, anything that’s real, 
The sting of a razor was all that would save her.

May you be blessed today when you least expect it…
with beauty, grace and style
an old memory will sneak up on you
and make you smile…for a while.

I smiled and said hello
her loneliness ever so deep yet tangible
kindness ~ ointment to old wounds

Premium Member The Least I Can Do

Nothing revolves around me,
Nor does everything need to involve me.
Least I can do for everybody, is be
The one, when they most need somebody to see.

Premium Member Blessings where least expected

Rooted in muddy stagnant waters.
Suddenly up blooms the most pure lily.
Reminder to never judge harshly.

Premium Member Last Not Least

Mundane cells not immune to death Upon exhale of final breath, Tenuous trails towards the past, Luminous legacy to last. July, 20, 2021

Premium Member Least Spend Treasured Seconds

As the candle slowly burns until the faintest light flickers to the end, so does the human soul cease to exist. 6/30/2017

Or Happier At Least

I was happy, 
TV nightly,
As a family,

Simple pleasures,
"Any Umbrellas",
Family holidays,

I was happy,
Perhaps the world was happy,
Or happier at least.

Premium Member To Say the Least

Now that we are no longer the people we used to be,
Even after seeing the darkness in us we could never see,
Least I can do for all of you now, is let all of you be free.

At Least I'M Trying

It doesn't matter 
how many times you fail
just keep getting up 
hit the hammer on the nail 
the thing is you're trying 
and that's what you say 
at least I'm trying 
not walking away

The Least We Can Do

Why do we suffer? So often we forget that Christ suffered too without blemish, without sin He can relate and guide us through sometimes we just have to suffer for Him.

Premium Member at least I am not the only one

grumpy cucumber was pickled and put inside a jar
Oh this is fun, he lamented. Hardy har har
The other cucumbers were pickled and put in jars too
For some weird reason, this made grumpy less blue

Premium Member The Least

Desire…
Desert thirst,
Mirage
Chase futile…
Prudence.

Discovered
At end
Beauty of
The least. 

This or that
Options…
Conundrum.

Need none…
Unattached.

Happy soul.

At Least

I was never good at letting go,
but stuck there and seek revenge was not even the matter with me,

Isn't it funny??

If any of this was up with me,
I think I could have stayed happier at least.

At Least Whisper

tell me
am i being
a horrible person

but today
is Thursday but
postally it's my Monday

so instead
of going in i got
out my favorite pen

happily
deciding to
write down what's

up
in
my

life

Sigh At Least

silence of your soul 
trembles my lip
sigh at least let 
the leaves move 
set the breeze 
sooth the wounds
soon 
let the wind blow
dance the trees
move the earth
turn the wind 
 tousle not  let 
tornados tune
suck them in
sigh at least

Premium Member At Least One Screw Loose

         George was a prankster, at least one screw loose
         Peed in a bottle, tagged it orange juice
             His mom drank it all down
             Then she started to frown
         Her face turned red, then white ~ then chartreuse

The One Least Likely

The One least likely to understand, 
Was the One who knew the most 
On broken knees, I cannot stand, 
But haunt, do I, as wraith or ghost 
The One least likely to be subtle, 
Was as gentle as a Lamb 
And, Oh! My emotions, deeply muddled- 
Woe is me is all I am!

Premium Member The Least She Could Do

Queen Erselott ruled the living room
Wearing her gold crown and lilac perfume
Her sister Queen Mae, self-imposed ruler too
Was jealous of Ebony, told that cat to shoo.
But Erselott crowned Ebony Queen of the loo
Let her clean out their litter, the least she could do.

Premium Member More Within I Am, Least Discovered

When the soul searches
And found nothing
Emptyness, pure emptyness
Rebounds!
In some such moments
I feel
I am dragged to a shell
I could have
Sure. I could have kept the entire universe
Inside the drawyer
No more I am just a repilica!
More within I am, least discovered!

At Least It's Something

waking up on a Wednesday—
    a Day stranger to live than spell
iced tea doesn't make any sense.

blue shoes glued with Shoe Goo
    makes old shoes more new
but not much more less than Crap.

i've got Things today to do—
    paint the walls, save the World,
and dream of Alan Rickman.

Premium Member At Least Try

Listen to poem:
it doesn’t have to be complicated
let’s just be real
no need to pretend
we’re not hurting

no need to hide
our scars and bruises
we both know
we’re broken beyond repair

let’s just be real
you to me and i to you
let’s somehow together 
at least try to heal
