Steady Down Poems | Examples


Premium Member Life's Guiding Light

Life’s Guiding Light

He stands alone against the twilight sky
while guiding weary sailors on their course
traversing every danger by and by
that coastal waters seemingly endorse.

A Beacon in the darkness lending hope
to ship-worn seamen at their journeys end,
this leading Lighthouse helping them to cope
with perils they can never comprehend.

His beams that penetrate the dark abyss
will lead us steady down life’s foggy path
to calmer seas within the harbor’s bliss
and always keep us safe from evil’s wrath.

With guiding rays that ever show the way,
forever He will lead us come what may.

A sign in a Japanese hotel, “Please take advantage of our chambermaid”
Sounds like it could quite possibly involve touching her undercarriage
Steady down, friends
It's only pretend
But on leaving, you should thank her for allowing you backstage

A sign in a Japanese hotel. “You are invited to take advantage
of the chambermaid” sounds like it may involve her undercarriage
Steady down, friends
It's only pretend
But you may want to thank her for allowing you backstage

Pouring

The rain is pouring steady down,
The puddles all expanding,
While outdoor venue owners frown
With Plan B thoughts commanding.

The parched brown lawns and wilted leaves,
Though, welcome all the water
For Nature's magic, up her sleeves,
Keeps everything in order.

A rainy day may spoil some plans
No matter what the season,
But even those non-downpour fans
Must bow to earthly reason.
