Stoic Poems

Waggers

In cricket what is the definition of Stoic?

Who is the limited edition who debunks tradition

Who is the true rendition of heroic?

Pay heed to a rare breed from a special creed

The house of flying daggers

Batters staggers and Waggers swaggers

Because Neil..our man of steel…was the real deal indeed..


Weirdly underrated not celebrated and venerated

What is happening?
Will we ride the tides of life & time?
Will we wind up sunk to bed instead?
Will we act all we will,
All accept what we won't?

How is this happening?
Well, we find the tides of life & time.
Well, we wake up from the

"Bring it, life, all your adversities...they only strengthen me!" - quote by  poet.



oh, adversity... 

haven't you exhausted 
               all efforts 
to knock me off my equilibrium,
to make me 
        cry a river?

OYSTER

Stoic she sits
        As an oyster lacking a grain of sand
        No Pearl of Great Price or wisdom to share.

Stoic she sits
        A smile adorns her face while we hold hands,
   

The Ballad Of Two Young Lovers

where the pipeline meets the lake
spewing sewage in its wake
several snowdrops grow and help to paint God’s earth

and as acid rains from clouds
upon the litter strewn by crowds
lines of daffodils speak more than words are worth.

next to piles of household waste 
tipped by those who fly in haste
there are bluebells growing wild on urban floors

Harmony Within: a Stoic Symphony

In stoic rhythm, the heart beats serenity,
a sequoia weathering life's windstorms.
Whispers of Epictetus, soft zephyrs,
navigate the soul through tempest trials.

Resolute amidst chaos's dance,
a stoic symphony, resilience embodied.
Each breath, a hymn to self-mastery,
forged in the crucible of inner dominion.

Emotions carved into stoic sculptures,
adorn the sanctum of a contemplative mind.
Acceptance, a soothing elixir of solace,
for wounds dealt

Stoic View of Life

Our path, sometimes grows arduous with bends and twists.
Trials of life keep tormenting us and others.
It's miserable to watch or endure such suffering.
But despite all heartache, we feel we are not done.

When I see the swamp bird with broken wings
Struggling to rise from the water’s edge.
When I see the deer, running away from its predator,
With

My Stoic Enduring Existence

 
"The story of our life is like a leaf-
Bring beauty to this world, however brief."

                                       

Stoic Stance

Laboured breathing and bones weary
Yet vibrant heart, far from dreary
Gentle eye, echoing love’s sigh
Soul’s stoic stance, seems so eerie

To be as such, fear forms must die
That flag of love and light flies high
Poised, irrespective of outcome
Mantra of life being, retry

Within heart continues to strum
The gong of Om, God’s cosmic drum
Bliss magnetism pulsates inside
Music of spheres

STOIC

Some people describe me as stoical
Stiff upper lip and chin raised, I’d say
Yet take it as it comes – it is the way
I’ve firmly held views, always logical

It’s probably inherited from my parents
I’m imbued with a sense of being strong
Of course, knowing right from wrong
And really about showing forbearance

The lack of anger shown isn’t monotony
Slightly

Stoic Path of Virtue

              _________________________________________

Among the living is where perfection is found.
Stoicism is a path of life that acts as dull ground.
The advice is to focus on the bright side of life.
Dispel the negativity, and let vanish all strife.

In this ethereal dawn, we discover solace.
As the aurora borealis implies the sky grace.
Psychedelic light illumination.

Stoic Stance

hot and humid, energy drained
with mosquito menace to boot
why’d we worry, we feel not strained
nonchalant eye cares not a hoot

transfixed in the bliss dance within
jibes and taunts of fate matter not
the void’s our home, we dwell therein
choosing thereby, to be self-taught

one with oneness, we are at peace
following the fragrance of love
breath by breath, turning a

I Care

I love my country
My people
Family
And friends
Thou I find
A need
To isolate myself
To protect them
And those
I wish to love

I love the
Locations
I place myself in
Those far 
Distant ranges
Open wide
Outback plains
And deserts
Deep
In rain forested valleys
Among waterfalls
Beneath dripping leaves
Golden sand beaches
That are far too long
To walk
With headlands
And there tragic
Stories

Where there are
Only three
In the bubbles
I create
Myself
Nature
And the spirit
Of our land
