Take Heed Poems - Poems about Take Heed

I take heed of what I’m too scared to admit, 
Keep stepping on, 
Sometimes you just take the lead and head on into the darkest abyss. 
Focus hard on what it is that you miss, 
Make time for yourself, 
Sometimes you’ve gotta remind yourself that you exist. 
Take heed of what you transmit, 
Cantankerous,
Cancerous,

Go upon your knees.' And just listen for His spirit to

I paid no heed to the call of the sirenS

I paid no heed to the call of the siren(s)

where amble lances 
hurled with the might 
of off fish hull seductress dances
setting figurative stage to take a bite
from canoodling beastie boy best eaten alive
or just after freshly being killed.

oblivious to the ramifications
courtesy the deafening ear splitting sound,
nor mindful of the devastating emotional fallout
lurking within outer

Premium Memberhow many will heed

I imagine the heavens opening up
Angels giving us a little talk
Asking us to be kind
Not only to our friends, but to everyone we meet

Showing us a video of how wonderful life can be
When everyone looks out for the greater good
How many will heed?
How many will listen?

Sadly, some might think it is a trick
A trap
Something from

Heed My Advice

Your beginning to ingrain
Your insanity on my brain
Do not drag me down with you
There was nothing I could do
I tried my best to help you friend
And I can't remember when
There was a time I didn't care
I tried to always be there
But you never even took
My advice--you didn't look
At the facts in front of you
Before she

Premium MemberHeed a Volcano Warning

May 18th, 1980
Mt. St. Helen erupted.
It was expected, many had escaped a bad fate.
Some opted to stay, wanting to go down in glory.
Two thousand square miles of trees were destroyed.
Mt. Pinatubo erupted eleven years later.
Both of these events reminiscent of the destruction of Pompeii.
Where twenty thousand people were not warned.
Many discovered permanently covered in molten

Heed the Call

HEED THE CALL

In a dream that I dreamt last night
A message received was meant for real
It was difficult and painful to accept
Even as I laid there in bed and slept
Now as dawn is breaking I can reveal
I am summoned and must go to fight

We always knew the war grew near
My orders came from an unreal

Heed To My Advice, I Pead

Calmly proceed,
It is the need,
Show no speed,
To you, I plead,
Do a good deed,
Sow love-seed,
Minds, you read,
Remove weed,
Life you lead
With joy indeed,
Don't spoon-feed,
If you have agreed
To remove greed,
I will gladly proceed,
As you will succeed,
Make not truth bleed,
Feel never worried,
Limits, never exceed!

Premium MemberHeed Loves Voice

Heed love’s voice, conscience whispering
Else flounder in darkness
Pure of heart feel bliss throbs spearing
Aligned with That oneness

Ego stalks us in stealth
Yielding dwindles soul’s health
Love divine, our sole wealth

There’s no choice
Heed love’s voice

Premium MemberHeed and Believe

A dazzling blaze sews magic on warm eyes.
Hurdles were solved, and secret vows were heard.
I won't steer the yarns while holy denies.
My cheers are shorn, and my heart is averred.
All musings are being wrecked with a sword.
Bumptious, you believe, life tricks may apply.
So shut your eyes and bear yourself a few dries.
Earth life has an

Pay No Heed

Harness the sun on a tropic isle,
A shaded nook to dwell.
Perhaps, a book or two as well,
Pay no heed to grey lands of woe,
For what its worth,
When rain pours,
Pelting edifices doused and damp,
Pay no heed when toes wriggle
The soft sand of a golden beach.

Pay no heed where cars honk horn
And wheels speed by
Spraying passers-by,
On dreary

If I leave before you do
These words you must try to heed
Remember them forever
So from your grief you will be freed

I know that you will miss me here
And life will not be the same
But "your "candle has not gone out like mine
It's just a flickering of your flame 

Live life to its fullest 
Don't let sadness anchor your
