Short Upmost Poems

Money is for spending, rules are for bending,
Food is for eating, tricks are for treating.
Upmost in life is the best gift from above,
To those lucky in life to find someone to love,
Treasure it, protect it, love it wherever it goes,
Because the thing about love, is that love is all it knows....

I COME BEFORE YOU I LOVE YOU ALWAYS---

I come before you only;
With praise and worship soul;
As I bow down before you;
Worshiping and adorning you;
I give you upmost praise;
On my knee I pray;
Lord Father Jesus God;
I love you always;

In bits and pieces

Truth now comes
in bits and pieces
Leaving us dwindling 
to fret and to take flight
Waking up to a staggering dawn 
Walking with tips of toes 
We are so bewildered  
With upmost chills 
Crushing our topmost wills 
now wary of kings and princes 
As the sword emerges 
Dicing every word....

Do not give up on your dreams
One day they will become reality.
All that glittersis gold
Have the faith to believe in your goals
Take the time to nuture your craft
Make it a work of art.
Give it your upmost care so much so
Others will see your creativity.
Your Dreams will make you a star
With this you will go far....

Blood-shot eyes are blue

I just want to tell the world
He gives me
He gives me joy
He gives me hope
everlasting peace
to the upmost
He gives me love that the world can't buy
This mere man can only try
I just want to tell the world
He gives me
He gives me joy
He gives me hope
everlasting peace
to the upmost
He gives me joy

Lucie is my loving cat.
She snuggles with me in my chair
and I’m content when she is there.

Lucie likes her tummy rubbed,
but most of all, her ears I knead,
but not enough, she shows her greed.

Lucie loves her laser light.
She chases it with upmost glee;
gets exercise, assuredly. 

Lucie knows her dinner time.
Stands by her dish and starts to cry;
sometimes she likes not what I buy....

The human heart is an amazing organ
It needs to be treated with the upmost care
It is the one most delicate features
That keeps us alive from birth and death
How could it survive for so many years
It's not magic well some say it is
It's the magic of the human condition
The amazing feat of reproducing itself
In it's own image AMAZING!
The human heart is an amazing organ
Treat it with the upmost care...

When I feel a sense of upmost profoundment,
I know  it is poetry.
When my heart yearns for words of creation,
I know I've created some poetry.
When my words come flowing fourth following
excitement, joy, pain, or sorrow then and
only then do I know it is poetry.
Most of all, I know it is poetry, if my heart
burns with thoughts of needing more words and
when out of my heart comes the deep impression
of a warm feeling of surety....
