Smoothing Poems | Examples

Premium Membertitle

the sweet of those
ever carnivorous
of your front teeth
that are still babyish
and so cute
and underneath
that
I am so still fond
of your history,
there's this
chance,
that was taken.
Mathematician
cannot ever explain,
the calculations
the new of
limbs so smooth.
And eyes
lighter than
dark
of your glassy
super sparkling
comprehend,
hair so new and
without knots
and take em over
BUT KEEP
them in all in line,
beetroots are sweet
but grassy greens
are less than
satisfying
to the emotions
of the smoothing blues
of waters and emotions
and browns and relaxation
are more to satisfy
to the hypnotizing
and guilt of free,
as she's the bee...
Then the blues
will write the poetry
when their machines
will one day be breaking
like its a coop of nothing.

Premium MemberSheen in the Afterglow

A silver brush stroke
turns rose thorns into blossoms,
fangs into white shells
lion roar hums you befriend~
while shadows follow your feats

mist makes a palace
where puddles and weeds had been
you drink the shimmer~
never asking what lies shrill
behind the painted curtain.

the day peels scene back
the crown, only thorns in sun
shows what's becoming~
smoothing the frown from your brow,
following in afterglow

She was an angel of mercy
bringing a smile to all as she passed
her manner gentle yet confident
smoothing were her hands.

She took trouble and strife in her stride
seeming to draw strength from them
her face lit up when she smiled
a true nurse of mercy.

Bringing hope and light in her wake
always ready to help patients
to go the extra mile
she walks with god and will sit beside him

Premium MemberMULTI-HUED DAMSEL IN THE BEAUTY OF HER WETNESS

Out of the womb of seedless water came her birth,
And no less than always has been her silent beauty;
Radiant essence, crowning the earth’s heavenly throne:-

She’s a special reflective bouquet of God’s creativity;
Mothering sun smoothing each of her rays into its chosen place
As her regal dome challenges the matter of her crowning magnanimity:-

Her celestial realm is a royal domain established by her creator;
Her celestial curvaceous tinted arch has forever excited the mind’s
Voracious appetite for things whose worth and beauty rivals gold’s own:-

Yes, from time immemorial, humanity has had the privileged 
Of her celestial beauty and teeming glow; yet, humanity,
Has never been able to control God’s teasing rainbow:-

Premium MemberBlack Veils and Plaster

For the most part, the lost years were self-inflicted
the foundation made from a hypersensitivity
which had a foundation of insecurity
which had a foundation of instability
which, in turn, was born within 
the whisper of a black veil.

The hypersensitivity was replaced by wet plaster
allowing for the smoothing of the wrinkles of living.
I'm slowly coming around-now 
back into the light of the light
Its and absurdly cautious plight...

I've yet to master the fine art of happiness
Every moment an exhausting sparring match 
with black veil and battle axe.
Thank God, that plaster is very slow to dry.

Premium MemberThe Bell

There is a sadness soothing to the soul,
And with its smoothing, Herakles made whole.
And deep within him, pealed a bell,
And those who hear, must harken well:
For from the void, its rhythms swell,
And all contrivance shall it quell!

Premium MemberSea of Roses

I walked past ancient tombs and graves
past swaying green trees
and birds singing a symphony
to where they buried you
under a sea of roses
I find the scent both glorious
and sickening at the same time
you were my secret lover
and friend
we shared magical moments
laughing, crying
holding each other in sorrow
when I found out you died
I stood in the shower and cried 
and cried
I walked around a ghost for days
thinking and remembering
you always brought me roses
oh, if I kept them all they would be
a sea of roses
I took a few from your grave
and they are in a glass on my dresser
wilted, withering
I heard and read that the airplane
you were piloting crashed
no survivors, ending of story
but it is not  . . . 
because I visit your grave
as your secret lover
my tears falling on your stone
the wind is strong today
taking my long hair, pulling it
I feel your fingers smoothing the strands
and hear your whisper "I will always love you"
and the birds are singing us a symphony

Premium MemberTime- Like Feathers, Fly

Where have the years gone: 
like soft feathers
they float in the breeze of life;
fragile, wispy thoughts
to gather in, one by one 
and stroke with loving care,
smoothing edges
ruffled in their years of flight.

Feathers of our memory-
they fly faster as we age;
time has learned a new step
spinning us around.
Feathers held just yesterday-
grasped from us so fast
before we comprehend
their colors and designs.

Relish each moment
lest the thief of time 
deems feathers fly no more.
Caress the silky texture;
smooth the separated vanes
to flawless beauty
before they are whisked away-
from memories- or soul.

Premium MemberI Will Love Him Forever

I never want to give up on my twin soul lover.
I will always long to be with him forever.
I am not sure when we will truly be together.
I often wish someone can give me an answer.

I only know I love him as a significant other.
I am always left waiting, feeling so unsure.
I wish I stayed pure in all the ways that matter.
I only know we're learning how to love each other.

I am realizing now that I want to do better.
I want to prove to him I am worthier than her.
I love him no matter how his past makes me feel bitter.
I am learning how to free myself from my own tether.

I will wait for him, even for up to a decade later.
I see the rift between us that once made us differ.
I am smoothing things out like the rapids of a river.
I know someday our separation will be over.

Premium MemberSmoothing of a Name

Life becomes weighted
as stones are placed upon the backs of men, 
till they bend.
Pain from the weight makes us curse away 
pain makes us pray-pray away.
pain welds a frown to the face.
Eventually they will all go away
nobody likes to breathe in another's pain.

A smile is a pigmented trough 
where nuggets of life are often caught
shining like Gods cavity and everything is ok
until the next wave takes the nuggets away.

Life is weighted.
Even in death they weight your name with stones
which is forgotten by the weight of 
time-
In time your name fades away
into the cool blue shadow of forgotten.
life is heavily weighted.

In A Shadow, In A Storm

In A Shadow, In A Storm (Comments Welcome) 
Written by: KRD - Written on :10/25/24
In a shadow in a storm that calls to me in the night and through this darkness I can see a small sliver of hope. Soft, bright and warm, a welcome trapped in a comforting embrace like a hug from childhood after something upsetting, peaceful and smoothing that is given with a grace not deserved.

Through troubled waters and life’s ups and downs it’s so easy to get turned down the path that is opposite of ours. But through His will life is blessed each day, learning each day. Taking new steps to be closer to becoming a virtuous person. A good Person.

Through His grace and His Son’s love a way will find a place to belong. A voice that can be heard in a shadow in a storm.
