Comfort Words Poems | Examples
These Comfort Words poems are examples of Words poems about Comfort. These are the best examples of Words Comfort poems written by international poets.
words always matter
wrong ones set the world ablaze
right ones give comfort
so chose your words carefully
otherwise, you may get burned
Intruders
Invasive interlopers
Encroaching on the edge
Of thought
Prowlers invading
The sanctity of the soul
Clumsy burglars
Violating the boundaries
Of whispered secrets
Purring cat burglars
Seeking comfort
some words wound and some heal
some words seeping down, hearts steal.
some words hit hard, some deeply cut
some meant to praise, but some to insult.
some stay inert, dead on the lips.
some cement cracks, but some widen gaps.
some serve as balm to those who are broken.
some, to beautiful relationships, new doors open.
some words comfort, some are aimed to assault.
some, hit hard and pierce like a thunderbolt
God, help me utter words that uplift
use right words at the right time, a gift.
I know words have the power to heal n' hurt
to bring joy and tears alike in other’s heart.
Lord anoint my lips with grace to utter words sweet,
so that, in others, they would open inlets of delight.
A choice
Without choice
No question arose
For this birthing
In blackness and
Sharp voices
Scolding the choice..
Regrets
For the choice arose
Imagined alternatives
Without sharpness
Without edges of an
Imagined identity..
Masks worn with
Pride and misgiving
Pain and elation
Comfort and shame
Colored to perfection
The separation game..
Yet in winding down
Appearances of memories
Flash and fade
No answers are found
To questions in time
Only these words
And not only these
Burning this page...
There may be
Encouragement
For the possibility
Of a rising fullness..
Yet fullness is
Already present
And may appear as
Arising of the
Encouragement...
"Live a little, comfort a little, cheer thyself a little." As You Like It.
If love were my bililligig
and thou my comely sorrcondor,
I’d shirren courst thine eyes assiligig
as mine own gane sizzon begondor.
Oh, mine hertzen hurtzen!
How could thoust be so frigidid
to blangst a sorrow murtzen
and forganen mine own brigidid?
Days pas in sorrest somburlen,
deviling in dark with horrdicap mourn.
I succumb to thoughts vorboturten,
comfort resangst your sassascorn.
The search
Names all experience:
Discomfort searching for comfort
Poverty searching for more
Death searching for life
Unsweetened searching for sweetening
The not-yet searching for already
And on and on..
Then there is that star and
The cradle...
It doesn’t matter where
It’s not about who
The spotlight
The stage
Theatrical
Words beyond what world sees and hears
Words uncertain
Tomorrow unseen
Words through suggestions
Cushion of no comfort
Amid the storms of doubt and circumstances
Words of wonder and delight
Precision in direct light
Words gather like no other
Statement and appeal
Words strike out for real
No longer concealed
Words surround
They found you
The gathering
Word out
What can I do to assuage your grief
How fruitless my words must seem to be
But still I pray you find some relief
From the shadow only you can see
A tragedy like this is a sin
It's impossible to understand
Some day I know you'll meet them again
But for now I just offer my hand
Jesus
a Christmas
arrival
Beginning & end
our comfort & friend
bringing day
out of night,
sweet from bitter
glory out of shame
turns a pebble
to a pearl
weakness into strength
brings
Grace to a face
of God with Us
Listening is of such great value
compared with just doing talk
this has been my real experience
makes one stand alone like a rock
Having had a stammer all of life
I have learnt to listen far more
for listening is much easier
as talk is so noisy and such a bore
An active listener is so rewarding
hearing sounds that are so rare
truly magical to listen with intent
ear and hear make quite a pair
Learning to listen is such a gift
taking in all that's been said
this bring such comfort to the speaker
for their words show what's fed
Listening is better than talking
it's so liberating made to fit
so many need a patient listener
giving real time can stop one quit
Words of advice fall on deaf ears,
Words of wisdom rarely hears the call.
Words of comfort are heard by some,
Words of fear are heard by all.
Acts of violence destroys the soul,
Acts of kindness the only cure.
Acts of peace will live and die,
Acts of war will long endure.

I say it doesn’t matter to me…
If they listen to the words I write,
Find comfort in the thoughts,
Remember that there is more to me…
Than just a stanza or a verb
I say it doesn’t matter to me…
Yet when they don’t hear my heart,
When they are far from my hope,
And I can’t even find the words…
There is hurt that quakes, a heart
That breaks
I say it doesn’t matter to me…
If they don’t read what I’ve penned,
Find inspiration in what I’ve said,
Yet there is a place deep within me…
Where my pages are wrinkled
With the pain of knowing my words…
Aren’t really heard
The flicker of light green catches the corner of my eye
From clothing of leaves worn on the trees
With sun shining between the wooded shade
For a moment, I thought a spark of wisdom ignited
To solve life’s problems abound
But, there must be more than one voice
And censorship should not exist
Imagine some high ranking people restricting other’s speech?
Yet it happens in these days!
The wildlife speaks freely, bringing us comfort in songs
Coming from those flickering leaves
Where the breeze moves smoothly along
And I must say, our voice should flow too
Flickering, shining, on every bit of truth
We should never give in to silencing
Leaving us standing like bare trees with nothing to say!
