Tethered Poems - Poems about Tethered

Tethered to a sandman’s chair Oblivious and yet aware Who would think or know Abstraction would be a show Of endearing love and such care Nonetheless fingers crossed in air Cuffed and bound no escape A tethered rope invisible stake Yet here I sit and simply stay Sandman’s victim on this day Seeking freedom from this curse Laiden bare within a hearse Run my...

I want you, not in a symphony of promises, but in the raw rhythm of now, each beat a fleeting note, strumming on the strings of today. Your smile? A wildfire against the dark, brief but unforgettable, scorching the edges of my calm. I don’t love you, or maybe I don’t yet. This isn’t a sonnet etched in stone, but a freestyle verse, imperfect, raw, and...

Bound by the curse arise from inception, Tethered was my fate,with this ruthless salvation_ Despair got this hand through the reality' shade; Despite being apoplectic your glint never fades.. Redirected were your sights, only on this influence While the rumbling glares got healed through your calm incandescence_ "Hey god", if you can feel the sanity of my heart! Then confront this...

I’m tethered to work And weathered by chores’ And follow a measured Run-of-the-mill course. I’m tethered, not feathered And no longer fly, I’ve ignored my wings And do not know why. Flying was certain When flying was free; When trying and flying Were the best part of me. I flew through the world Or was it a dream, Feathered and untethered Was life what it seemed? Or was it quite the...

The deaf dog repeatedly barked, loud, timely, bellowing, sharp.. Tethered tight in his back yard, his family slept as he kept guard.. Day after day on an eight foot leash, he pulled at his chain as far as it reached.. He was not aggressive. He had never bit. This was life as he knew it. His children hadn't played with him since he was quite...

We tethered our hearts to the stars, And we dreamed of a world that was free. We dreamed of a world without war, Without poverty, and without pain. We dreamed of a world where everyone was equal, Where everyone had enough to eat, And where everyone had a place to call home. We dreamed of a world where love was the law, And...

In my heart, there's a place for hope; for it gives me the strength to cope. I keep it nestled next to love, gifted to me by God above. Like faith, they're tethered to my soul, and together, they make me whole. (Rhyme) 06/01/2023 Bite Size no 65 poetry contest Sponsored by: Line Gauthier...

You lift me gently out of my cage Into the palm of your hand You smooth my feathers with such tenderness. Up into the air, You raise your arms In a swift motion, you release me to fly I believed I was free If only for a brief time. Up into the sky Until...

From ashes of Sokovia, a twin sister rose, With powers of chaos and psionic flows, Wanda they called her, tethered spirit unfurled, As women before her, she reckoned this world. Her pain born of loss, and hurt tragedy, Fueled a hatred not native and made enemy, Tony Stark, as she knew him, her symbol of ire, Whose projected missiles did actions...

Short shadows stretched by a sinking sun, darkness denotes the day is done. And Sol slips over the edge of the Earth tethered to oblivion, and yet, shackled to Dawn. Twilight morphs into Dusk, summoning night, as a canopy of twinkling stars shine. And the moon imbues a phantom sun's light with magic, where wishes and dreams entwine. an ebony...

Tethered To the Llano Estacado David J Walker The red thicked dust Replaced the air we breathed With floating rust In shrouds bequeathed in The Earth’s crust Flying by Higher than the clouds Blocking out the sun It is the price you will pay If you are going to stay Tethered to the Llano Estacado...

A juicy nectarine sparkles through the dove-colored limbs of the fully flushed trees as the light seeps around the edge of the cool morn’, yesterday. Today the dayspring's lemon-cream rubs the irradiating Summer sky, it is of a squeezed lemon....
