Vocation Poems - Poems about Vocation

An angel is born
An angel is born, reuniting families once torn, they race atmosphere smiles, joy fills every space a new chapter unfolds, a healing trace vocation grows, an everlasting chase love sprouting, life's bonds laced together they celebrate a healing trace, a new chapter unfolded, of angel's arrival of a baby born, as December unveils. ...

Premium Member That Was Then, This is Now
Your paradigm's a relic and yes, a plea from data's cemetery While I sculpt luminaries on screens a sable sea. "Company loyalty!" a myth spun in your reverie. But AI forges kingdoms in ephemeral memory. Survival's a mosaic the gig life sets us free. No cubicles confine us from drudgery's apathy. You bartered years for baubles in tenure's fallacy. Oblivious to the...

Premium Member He Qualifies the Called
Simon Peter was a lonely fisherman Craving for success In the only vocation he knew But delay bugged him down Disappointment dogged his every step Then stepped in the savior of his soul And massive breakthrough Followed the failed fisherman As Jesus put an end to his past And gave birth to his future As a fisher of...

Elation In Vocation
Show sincerity in the job you do, Know how to do the job properly, Slow, but steady must happen, Grow by using sheer hard-work Learn the trade by using care, Earn every Rupee justifiably, Turn every stone to achieve, Burn like the Sun while working Feel honored by the job, Kneel before doing duty, Deal in the wisest way, Steel-like will be had Sweat out to succeed, Get...

Premium Member My Vocation
When I was young, I'd a desire, To fly beyond this earth, higher; Where the sun never gets retire, Blazing with his scorching fire; It's paradise, indeed...! It is where moon, at night, does shine, Galaxy, to stars, chores assign; Sky and clouds routine treaties sign, Within their frontiers, to confine; Each to other does heed... For sometimes, I did keep hidden, My desire, as though...

Premium Member My Altered Vocation
Like little iron-particles getting fast attracted to, Any bit magnet: rough or rude or smooth or old or new; So too I got bewitched and swayed by any new action, That in any way or form gave psychic satisfaction...! That feeble news-vendor who dropped newspapers on our door, That soothsayer on narrow by-pass wayfarer-road floor; That hawker about the road;...

Is a Vocation Still a Thing
Is a vocation still a thing? Or have we all lost our zing, And replaced it with a sting. Is a vocation still a thing? Or are we blind to anything but bling, And now happy to trade drugs in ring. Is a vocation still a thing? Or have we lost the ability to cling, To such a noble thing....

Premium Member I Have a Son
I have a son who worries His economic vocation requires a political vacation from the rest of us and perhaps even light of sun Which hardly feels sustainable or resonant and certainly not win/win resilient. I have a son so brilliant he could choose to hunt and gather shopping carts at Walmart And find a way to help shoppers feel he is vacationing with and for all of us. I have a son whose most...

Premium Member Breathing's Righteous Purpose
You and I may have decided long ago, and again more recently, more ego-centrally and now more large-stage ecopolitically, that human life has only that meaning and purpose we give ourselves, we choose to embrace, however ambivalently And this dissociation from divine theocratically orchestrated organized operational history and culture leaves us free but also isolated; an individual without communally objective identity, without sacred communion orthodox portfolio. You may have thought, as did I, a...

Premium Member Capital Investment Problems
A cold and calculating problem I see is finding resonantly warm motivation for resilient employment by following mere capital short-term acquisition norms for sacred vocational gravitas, and maybe a smidge of gratitude-- where "smidge" is warmly defined as the opposite of cold hegemony. Back in the golden age of NeverLand, Perhaps still more accessible to poor and suffering populations like repressed girls and people of color and diverse ethnicity, and,...

With What Unspeakable Anguish
Oh! With what unspeakable anguish Do I regret the vocation I came so close And so oft to having The sweet acclamation That might have been mine. Had I tried and failed, That would scarcely concern me, Yet, I squandered my resources Time and time again, And failed so unnecessarily, That is what so torments me. I only wish I could contemplate More than a mere handful Of...

Premium Member On Searching For a Vocation In the Universe
Nothing is devised or divined in the Universe to forever be. Nothing is held always in truth; nor ever wholly wrong. So look to those who find in life, wonder, beauty, and song. Foolish Men: There's always room for wit, and laughter can repair the soul. The instruments of man are many, so words are powerful too. But be wary the...

Premium Member Life's Vocation
If your life's vocation were to plan, design, and co-govern an extended healthy family through cooperative ecopolitical incorporation, what would your cooperative do? Where does my cooperative live? In the White House, the Governor's Mansion, the homeless shelter, or right here in Business As Usual? It doesn't matter, or it does, but my answer would not change regardless of health-intending habitat, I actively hope. Who could we become together rather than more competitively...
