Waters Poems - Poems about Waters

Gloomy international waters
Let sail this doom and gloom Drinking gasoline with a blue lighter In the morning head up the gangplank The hours till I lay down is a lifetime I’ve become a child drunk on hydrocarbons How will I lay my aching head at night? Isn’t it how I’ll wake up young again? I’m a sailor heading to international waters Fuel in my belly...

A Scroll Of Unseen Waters
The Scroll Of Unseen Waters Come, you who carry fire in your bones and salt in your tears…? Children of the drum, the dusk, the dust, and the dawn…? From mountain root to river vein… the land remembers one song… But the cup that overflows can never be filled…? And the tongue that speaks before listening forgets the...

Premium Member Cool Waters
Cool waters casade over myriad rocks. That serpentine creek which heads to sea Voice lilts,, its charm draws me in period Fears enters as I sit under the tree Crescent moon rising gives off lunar light There appears a phosphorous light green glow Creatures who are naturally bright at night Water ripples by, while soft breezes blow Fear gives way to the beautiful...

Navigating the Treacherous Waters of Office Politics
In office halls, where silhouettes loom, Beware the boss who calls you aside to manipulate, A trap awaits, where whispers seal your destiny, Keep colleague woes locked deep, an unspoken weight. Security's helping hand may hold a test, Expectation's seed, in every coin you nest, Proximity breeds contempt, a subtle art, One day's omission, and you're branded apart. Close friendships forged in workplace...

How Still The Waters Rage
How still the waters rage In stillnesses of day Moving tranquil on their way Across the placid page, While simmering beneath In silent, stormy stare The torrent underneath In boiling cauldron glares – Between the lines the blanks Bespeak in volumes swept Words unheard in all their strength Speak, where they are kept Beneath the calmness of the page – How still the waters rage –...

Sacred Waters
"Sacred Waters" In the hush between the stars and sea, She rises, quiet, wild, and free. A tide that stirs with breathless grace, A rhythm time cannot erase. Not just of body, but of flame, A current no one dares to name. She pours from places deep and wide, Where gods and ghosts and dreams reside. Her waters bloom without a sound, A tremble shaking...

The Waters Hymnal
My emotions flow in time with the rivers current It's so close I can smell it, what I long for the tall cat tail grass brushing against my bare arms, wet sand and driftwood a heavy heart longing to be carried home again my soul craves this, the waters hymnal It must be a dream to...

Premium Member As If You Care
The oxide earth vapours, the vernal air trembles A dirty white sky overhangs in your glasses Viridian green tints the water, it shambles The exuberant stems of the lilies and grasses Like women with oars punt in David Brayne's pictures My senses are floating through waters in bloom No exaggerations in landscape are featured No lyrical effects, but seasonal gloom Filled with presentiment...

Premium Member Still Waters
Still as the wind who sings breathless praises to the tune of a softly glowing moon, stars whispering to the night, twinkling graceful abiding in the music, a soothing rhythm erasing the anxieties, the doubts, the fears wiping away the darkness, the gentle tears with a beautiful melancholy, a promise that appears when twilight fades to darkness and the trees sigh, praising...

Love's Uncharted Waters
You are my woman I want to love you like you never been loved before With depth that reaches beyond the shallow shore Into the vast ocean where hearts truly soar I'll cherish your strength, your fire, your grace Not as possession but as gift beyond measure In your complexities I find endless treasure A universe to explore at our own pace When...
