Short Selflessly Poems

He who laughs at others misfortune

Must really be crying inside

And he who selflessly helps others

Must have a heart that's ten feet wide...

There once was a brash barmaid named Belle
Her virtue she would selflessly sell
	she was nicked by the cops
	for illegal house stops
She now spends her spare time in a cell...

Loved you selflessly,
Loved you unconditionally,
Loved you endlessly,
Loved you sincerely,
Loved you so deeply,
Loved you indefinitely,
Loved you helplessly,
Oh how madly, 
I loved you!...

It love requires not colognes - nor perfumes,
It requires not make-up nor a shaven.
Luxuries nought - when hearts are light as plumes;
Most thrive most selflessly in love's haven....

Renewal
life sought it meaning
in my palms of search
and outward reach
and love given selflessly
has show that it is written
of two souls becoming poets
in the fable of love's 
Jovians lore.
It is writen
It is writen....

come with me feeling free on my red sled
maybe we can revisit life and free ourselves from this dead bed

perhaps we could rekindle a flame long since faded
by letting the magic of the snow free us from feeling selflessly gated...

She serves amidst tears with selfless dedication"


A 
woman
is the most
magnificent
creation of God. She serves selflessly
Her tear filled eyes desire more time in hand
to perfectly
accomplish
daily
tasks

Holding a knife to your heart for her,

Willingly serve the other,

Always gazing with love at each other,

This is love,

Selflessly giving to another,

Just seeing the other produces joy,

Helping the other earnestly,

~This is Love~...

suns smutty shadow still  
symphonically shouting silently

ERASING DOUBT

I feel your love
Erasing all doubt~
How do you care
About even the small matters
Of my life
When you are God Most High?
I’m overcome
By your tender care~
You who would have
Taken your own son’s place
Selflessly you gave up
What you held most dear
Because I am to you
So dear...

Is it okay to say 
I fall in love easily,
is it okay to say 
I fall out of love just as easily

Do you understand this duality?
Do you know there's no balancing me?

Trying to live selflessly,
Is it time to live selfishly?
This confliction is confusing you see..
I've become my own worst enemy....

Sparing


Spare the rod, spoil the  child
Sayings are short-hand stories 
Sensible people support and encourage sensitivity
Selflessly give seconds, minutes, hours, days
Sow the seeds of empathy
Save their souls because it's not worth,  
spoiling the ship for a ha'porth of tar.

Never could there ever be, 
an odder concept to perceive. 
Long ago and far away, 
he lost his life to pave the way. 
It was to be the utmost act, 
selflessly upon his back. 
He did no wrong, he sayw no bad, 
yet he would die for those who had. 
While all of us still yet to come, 
would owe our lives to "God" someone...

The best gift a dog can give
Has not received fair credit
Every good dog
Loves its pet people
Often selflessly
Year after year
A good dog bestows its
Loyalty upon
Those it loves
You see it in the eyes
Often the behavior
From one day to the next
A loyal dog
Does all that it can to
Offer all the gifts that
God allows it to give of itself....

As “Taps” is played,
Faces are burdened,
with deep sorrow.
And all stand...
Trembling.
Each, lingering,
In their own
Distant solitude.


God bless these soldiers,
Who now shine brightly
From Heaven.
God sent these
Guardian angels,
Who fought selflessly,
To protect our freedom
Keeping this country...
“The Land of the Free”...

You always inspire,
To get the things I desire.
You support me to struggle,
Whenever I am in trouble.
You always have time,
To listen to thoughts of mine.
You taught me not to shed a tear,
When I was in fear.
You always showered love selflessly,
And gave me things endlessly,
How do I thank Almighty?
To bless me as your child, ‘Daddy!’...

She breathed…
An image I often watch
Silently, secretly
I admire her from afar.

She sighed…
Ah, to hold her at that moment
Lovingly, patiently
I love her from afar.

She looks...
As I would picture an angel
Sweetly, gently
I wait, still from afar.

She feels…
Compassion equally for all
Genuinely, selflessly
Making me want her more....

I'm the dove
fallen from heaven
selflessly quiet
undeserving of my own worth
giving compassion to everyone but me
my ups force me down, crashing down
my mind the flooded sea
chained to short grasps of breath
crisp air, my necessity
the sea pulling me back
its currents overpowering, strength overbearing
when will my soul be swallowed?
sweet relief....

No longer beckoning to my enemies.
Pain and deceit are just memories.
No longer sitting on my stark throne of lies
Luring days of treachery have gone awry. 
Rediscovered my soul, oh the precious gift!
Death of regrets, I beseech to be swift.
My heart and my truth are selflessly mending,
I am hale and hearty, my own happy ending.



**inspired by the poem, A Happy Ending ...

who lived like me?

who fought with me?

who reached the darkness before i did?

i lay them down, my walls and fears

if you would tell me which stone not to turn. . .
but so selflessly i rode into a storm . . .

. . . . .IN MY HEART A LITTLE KINGDOM FALLS,

and i live 4 that day,

like a prophesy foretold..

that one will come and we will build it once again...

Keeps guard
collects nectar
eats only to survive
community work supreme
parks nectar bank full
mindless of others’ roles

Without supervisor
Head bee labors softly
but every bee is Head bee
none a servant of the other
working selflessly each day
output without corruption
and the bee society moves on
flourishing, calm, peaceful
no insecurity, no famine
all proud of being a bee...

Lock protects your belongings

Waits till you open it

Always in a fixed position

Never looses the patience 

Does the job selflessly 

Never bothers to runaway 

When any danger comes on its way

It performs its duty until it is broken

Such a dedicated and sincere a lock is

It waits for you for hours, for days

The perfection of its duty can never be compared to anything...
