Short Philosophize Poems

   The ‘meaning of life’ oft escaped me 
     for I got quite busy, you see

   There’s just wasn’t time to philosophize
     untimely death ~ forever unwise

As I philosophize in this ferocious rain
In search of a gentle note on this quatrain
Inside I see a strong, impermeable porcelain
And you trying to break it, not in vain...

Sky
Clouds
Sun
Breeze
A hill is sat upon
Daydreams
Wander
Come and go
Breathe deeply
Feeling at peace
Philosophize
Mind explored
Watch as the sun passes
It sets...

I’m going to comprehend my rhyme

Breakwater below your feet

Psalms I scream

For his brainless thoughts, are not his fault

So please absorb, guzzle or swallow, this free verse

For I speak to a ghost

Each second, I see your eyes

Philosophize the beat to my heart

Has I scream out your blood

Hoping you’ll disappear

Before I finish breaking water below your feet

And, no you may not have a seat

Life is a joyful ship
        that brings impatient tourists
        to discover the beauties
        of life...
        Death is only a vehicle
        that takes all these people
        back to destination
        source...
        If we so philosophize,
        we face the certainty
        that life is eternal
        and death is simple
        order fulfiller
        of the superior, the divine ...!...

My love awakens me
with playful purrs,
with kitty licks 
and padded paws -- 

we are never far
from our primitives, 

to know the world by
touch, and God through 
tactile mystery, replicating
senses till soaring -- 

Oh, one can philosophize
and theologize!
or one can cling to the
moment~ lips diving,
arms like vulture wings
enfolding, love’s cooing
triggering a salivating, primal 
response – Coffee can wait!...

Rumbling thoughts crescending,
Beyond knowledge ascending,
Wreathing daze, unfurled,
Meanings twirled…

Outlived incomprehension,
Outlived tension,
Era of delusions,
Era of illusions…

How shall our guile emphasize?
How shall our wisdom philosophize?

A million words alleged,
A million vows pledged,
A million beliefs agreed,
A million creeds…

Yet, life remains an erratic illusion of distance,
For
Knowledge stretches afar our existence…...

I am thinking of moving to old Zanzibar
Where I shall relax and strum my guitar,
Among the fields of cinnamon and clover
Perhaps I shall invite a few friends over,
To while away what is left of the day
With a drink or two from a jar of clay,
And philosophize on the rare idyllic life
Free from rumor, pettiness, and strife,
In the early morning considering the dew
I will spend some time thinking of you.

When I am depressed
I float in self-pity
I roam in fantasy
I bask in solitude

When I am depressed
Thought of God bores me
Thought of family irritates me
Thought of life bores me 

When I am depressed
Doctors question than test
Doctors suggest than prescribe
Doctors philosophize than treat

When I am depressed
Self-confidence eludes me
Self-worth evades me
Self-criticism controls me

When I am depressed 
I loathe your presence
I detest your concern
I NEED YOUR LOVE...
