The Boxers' Motto

To hit hard

and not to be hit, 

boxers believe

 

each jab and hook

and straight to chance

they just can't leave.

 

Yeah, with punches,

than to receive!

My Life's Motto

Life is cold, with a little hint of warmth.
Life is bitter, with a little hint of sweetness.
And 
Life is full of opportunities, with little time to spare.
But despite this hardships I will prevail,
And become 13 times the man that I am.

Rambler's Motto

Gentle Earth, and you
Inseparable, no?
If made, as meant for
Why shun? Enjoy!

With each rushed up breeze
Of its embrace
Lover's, perfume-filled
Lover's revives
Hilled and coastally
Opes wide its arms
Feeling that rapport
Instinct. Not coy!

Does your conniption fit?

If it's not a laughing matter, then it's not important. 

Did you ever notice that when you stir a glass of something, the spoon says, "Jibiddy jibiddy jibiddy jibiddy"?

Worst first name of anyone I ever met: Schmedroy.

Heart Motto

Endulge in peace and rebuff war
Embrace faith and to your heart accord franchise
Step where you could trigger a grin
Endulge in peace and rebuff war
Advocate fortitude and malevolence entomb
Capitulate to love and to rectitude succumb
Endulge in peace and rebuff war
Embrace faith and to your heart accord franchise.

My Parents Favorite Motto

First hear it from my Mom and Dad,
at first I thought the idea absurd,
but then I thought what the heck,
so I went outside to look around and check,

Investigating every single inch of property,
some squirrels running by my young feet,
with my happiness being short lived,
when I noticed no money growing on our trees.

Motto Inscribed

dug up 
unearthed 
a time capsule
of sorts yesterday 
will planting a tree
when the capsule 
was unlocked 
inside was found 
a lovely heart shaped 
antique locket
the motto 
inscribed within 
the locket was 
indicative of a time 
gone by 
when their was hope 
when their was faith 
living within the youthful 
heart 
imagination drifted 
to thoughts of where 
are they now

Premium Member My Motto

If I am desperate, I have no hope
If I am thirsty, I cannot cope!
If I am hungered, I will cry for more
If I am lonely, I will shut the door!

If In Jesus, I do believe
Hope will flourish; I will receive!
If with Jesus, I will sync
Rivers of living water I will drink!
If unto Jesus, I will go
I’ll never hunger, I will grow!
If Jesus, I choose follow
“I’M NOT ALONE” will be my motto!

Premium Member Need of the hour

From apes we have evolved,
The theory of evolution declares.
As social beings we gradually advanced;
Ignoring harmony, we suddenly ruined.
The advent of caste, creed and religion
Has broken up the world into fragments.
Our deities, prophets and saints taught us
The principles of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’.
It’s time we make peace, love, understanding and mercy,
The pillars on which humanity survives, our sole motto.
