when this broad brushes blokes
jaws drop roll and reconsider 

except the pyromaniacs
they can't get enough of her

I know you wanna do a lot in the name of fame,
But you got to reconsider the reasons why you came.
You're no longer being a sore loser,
But are still such a poor chooser....

and so our hero, the artist, 
forlorn as his palette, 
then sat down
to reconsider his life
not long having stepped back
from his paintings
only to find all his trees
were blue and his people
headless

Walls confine feelings, not people.
They lock them into buildings, 
make them face the walls and 
reconsider, rethink.

That’s the love locked within us.
Where’s the key?

This is not what I meant by closure.

Hmm you do not contact me
I wished that you would want to.
It turns out now that I see –
I’d have to reconsider if you do.

What a silly trick life played
This weekend for my party!
Thank God, I’m not on delay –
Yes I’d be happy but only partly…...

Living the dream
is not quite what it seems
with children, mortgages,and debt.
Reconsider you should,
whats under the hood 
of the the thing they call The Dream.
It can suck up your life,
cause all kinds of strife
 and drive you completely insane....

Bubbly and brown 
Very rarley wears a frown
Easy on the eyes 
Very easily she cries
The face that makes
Evil men reconsider
And bless the man
Who sleeps with her,
     As beautiful as the 
Sun that sets, 
Her impression on you,
You'll never forget....

Would give anything 
To have you reconsider
Would give up whatever 
Was needed in order for 
You to be convinced to return 
Whatever it would take 
I am will to do it if it 
Would mean having you 
Back in my life once more 
To stay forever More
Like before...

They say if you're tense
Just picture them naked
You don't feel clued in
Creatively fake it
Reconsider both sides
Look up -don't look down
Mad waters could take you
Crash you up from the sound
And your voice might be lying
Seems your thoughts are too loud
Far away from the quiets's
How you drown out the crowd...

I''m doing the speed limit.
Pass me if you dare,
It's on purpose that I'm within it,
my itinerant confrere.
Reconsider your position.
Please stay off my back side,
I'm in the labor force too,
Let's be safe ; enjoy the ride.
The harvest is abundant 
the laborers are mighty few,
Stick around,
The Lord may still need you....

Listen to poem:

ponder, puzzle,
pose the tos and fros
let the options reverberate
like pebble rings coiling on a pond
sing a chorus to decide
without punch drunk mantra lines
decide 
when its done, tis done, ink has dried
step forward, progress
never look back
never reconsider
never have any regrets
never retrace the 
whys, wherefores and
if onlys
deed tis done
indeed...

Politicians, stumbling and frozen in speech?
Aged senators who are unwilling to retire?
What has gone wrong with blessed retirement?
Is it the people's business they're faithfully pursuing?
Or, are they holding on to passion, power, and prestige?
Must we reconsider term limits before they die in office?
I'm loving retirement, but am I missing something?

voices beckon to me from inside
as distant lonely echoes sigh
I hear their voices pleading 
telling me to step back
from the precipice
of my despair
not wanting
the end
now
and
I stop
haltingly,
hesitating
to reconsider
the value of being
opposed to self-sacrifice
and selfish lack of concern for
those people who would mourn my passing.

A time to stop and think
A time to behave and try again
A time to sit and relax
Of those negative attitudes of yours

A period to think about your failures
A period to try again in that lost hope
A period to relax and make a decision
On those steps you have taken

A moment to give all your best
A moment to decide whether to stop or continue the race
A moment to let everything go
So that your future will not injure you...

Born into a family
grow into a world
life's calling.
***
Experiencing
learning
growth of maturity.
***
Ponder existence 
what has meaning
discarding the rest.
***
Reconsider meanings
as God reveals truths
re-examine existence. 
***
Bonds of friendship 
love blossoms
marital state of bliss.
***
Walk life's roads together
holding hands
true love defies all odds.
***
Changing seasons
light of setting sun fades
we made it....

Used to be an individual
now I'm just a complex number
stripped away from my own individuality
made me uncomfortably wake from my
slumber.

Used to be a boy wonder.
I was living the life.
Didn't think I'd get sucked under,
didn't think I'd end up wanting to kill myself
with a hunting knife.

My wrongful deeds have made me feel as if I'm living in a 
dreadful still life picture,
wishing someone would look at me
and reconsider and view me as a normal fixture....

We may have never met,
Never watched the sun set.
But i hear you when you sigh,
I feel your despair after giving up on only one try.
I feel every time your heart gets alittle more bitter.
Before you give up on hope, i pray you reconsider.
For in time,
You will find,
just how much love can be define.
So yes we may never meet,
Never feel the beaches sand under our feet.
But you'll forever more have a part of me,
Even though its me you may never see....

each sunrise holds promise

quiet rapture before he spoke

not thinking, the words spill out

too late to reconsider

the mess you have made

no mopping it up now



she listens,

not hearing the anger

but the very frustrations

that brought them here

sitting on this porch

together



but each is alone

although they sit side by side

not touching, not feeling

no reply from her

unusual at best

but there's nothing left to say...

Said flowing River
to glowing Mountain

What warms deepest
Thou cannot see
from sacred heights
of eternity

Robustly responds
growing Mountain Here
to deeply embedded River Now

What spills widest
shared compassion
Thou must deeply feel
to reconsider Integrity's warm
boundlessly reflective faces,
Earth bound graces

Said Father Sun's light
radiantly bright
when not in Mother Earth's
dualdark shadow night

Empowering shivered
quivered sacred passions....

Dear Friend
I
Miss you so
When the winter wind
Makes me shudder
And I notice the cold air,
And I know
That your no longer there
I
Wish
That you would
Reconsider
Your
Hasty
Decision
But I know
Your far to stubborn
To
Come back here
I pick up
My phone
And
Then I remember
Your no longer
In my life
When I have joyful stories
To share
It’s quite clear
that
 as I grow
As the years pass
And
I
Develop into the person
I was meant to be
You will never really know me...
