Our union is stronger than we -
Measuring twofold -
And moves in the world.
Prithee, therefore -
Take it on with me.

In times lost
a struggle was found
when there was no war to fight
no reason to kill
a battle has met me
measuring my being
my strength
my hope
Form:
the feelings liquefy
from the heat inside
I pour them from my heart
into a glass measuring cup
they don't quantify
there is less there
than I thought
Behind all of my suffering .. desire,
measuring the space between
where I am and where I want to be
and billing me the difference.
Payment in peace-s of mind.
Audiologists test one's hearing
Most are expert at that
Yet for measuring the art of listening
I’ve not seen one Welcome Mat
Measuring up depends
on which way you look at it
a seesaw rocks from side to side
a pendulum swings to and fro
who says which side the weight is placed
on a pairs of scales.
Which Over-Reaction
Should I Choose!
So Exhausting
Measuring Time...
Valuable Time...
Wasting The Way.
Curds N' Way.
Weigh The Way.

if meter refers to a poem’s beat ~
why are iambs, spondees, and trochees feet?

Measuring with Metrics by Milt Hankins got me thinking...
Apprehension Appears
We were trying to define each dimension,
Used in measuring all the apprehension,
But did forget,
When we met,
Along with dissension that caused tension.

a role model
an inspirational
woman that is
used as a
motivational
measuring scale
on which to
weigh personal
progression upon
while on this
journey towards
self improvement
How much is a batch, it really depends on
Who's measuring it, if it's my dear son
Four spoons of sugar will do
A spoonful is about two
Love how he cooks, it aids my digestion
Always What Is Inside Counts
What is inside we know always counts;
Even after measuring all of the amounts;
With disdain;
Such a strain,
And on Trump will ponce ounce by ounce.
Jim Horn
bluish flowers kissing
the black stones rolling
green tendrils winding
she turns into a rock
of love
virgins are delivering
in the dark corners
they are measuring
the ocean with
the chalice of
blood
Form:
A feast for the eyes
Or a lamb meant to slaughter,
Respected not with respect to
Mother, wife or daughter;
Regarded as criterion used
For measuring machismo,
Or a way to exhaust
A fleeting need for pleasure.
When I am working in the kitchen
Removing my warm mittens
Pouring and measuring
Mixing and stirring
Preparing a sumptuous meal
Of some curry or veal
And when asked for seconds
My eyes glitter like diamonds
Gathered we were with solemn faces
Embracing each other different places
Measuring all the feelings inside
Induced into a constant river of love
Never to dry out or to stop
Immensely into the silent cold drop
I was not expecting to see big foot’s prints in the snow
When I came upon them to my horse I yelled “whoa!”
Took out my turquoise tape and measured one of them too.
Sixteen inches long, and the width was longer than my boo.
I've heard
no two are exactly alike
each flake
a world in itself-
so small
but immense enough
to be singular in creation.
Perhaps we sell ourselves short
by simply measuring
what we are
and not
all we avoided becoming….
The magnitude of one's humanity is measured by the concern shown for others!*

A Clock
Tom Wright
2000
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.
Man's invention
for measuring that most precious commodity,
called time.
A commodity which God retains control,
while allowing man to determine its use.
The sands of time trickle down,
Measuring the days of man,
Who now has lost his spiritual crown
And has abandoned salvation's plan.

Most kids learn basic math.
Mastering addition
Makes way for harder things!
Multiplying helps with
Money management and
Measuring while cooking.
More math than that . . . I'm lost!
