Stepping Stone Poems - Poems about Stepping Stone

It was a stepping-stone, ten and half years, but a stepping-stone A woodstove burning on the hill Distant mountains seen through bare trees A place of laughter and many tears Accidents, achievements, love and loss Flowers and wildlife so wild, but tame Quietness that settled the soul Bird songs that brought a yearning to dance Sunrises and sunsets seen through the windows A timeframe in...

Preparing The Lips for repeated groans And The Heart for as many moans, Left long in it one’s contacting phone: “To whom it concerns I’m pitiably alone!” Suffering never was a stepping stone To our Remote-Controlled Throne, For all its merits steadily overblown And at Non-sufferers readily thrown … Some bit Suffering releases in The Grown With the doggedness he’d sown: The often insupportable...

at the other side of river are the stolen roots of healing-moon-giving trees left by wayward wind. my skin whispers— wind is traversing to reach the corn field of druid for another robbery; that it’s a good chance for me to be a thief and rejuvenate my lacerations-covered heart. without blinking, i jump from bank to stepping stone...

My first test, easy like taking toys from a spoilt brat, now I know I can take what I want without issue. Now time to up the anti, push hard or go home crying I scour my audience reading each one like an open book, searching for my chosen one. I pick them out, start by studying...

M-ake a stepping stone, A-iming towards success; R-ising above the crowd I-s not without a mess. E-arly twenty-fifth of August, just learn from your error; L-et your life correct the wrong, use the failure to your favor. S-tepping stone to triumph I-s truly hard and rough; L-earn to reach your goal, A-s the going gets tough. G-et up when...

The day fast fades the end draws near our time is fleeting so brief and so dear Over and over I longed for you so the longing unanswered and so I must go I gave you my life you gave me my death in very small portions between every breath You ravaged my heart and invaded my mind an addiction so sweet a torment unkind The truth is masked where your comforts...

There is a journey out there; it can’t be taken alone I am happy to help you, and be your stepping stone Of course you will pass me, but please show respect Leave some space for the one; who passes you next This weary stone worn down; from over all the years From given a helping hand; wishing you...

I’ve been robbed of perfection Then starved for attention When I though I’d found love She gave up, without mention I’ve endured pain for my wisdom Then lost my mind thinking When I thought I’d found love She gave up without blinking I’ve put my madness in ink Then burned it onto paper When I thought I’d found love She gave up without failure I’ve...
