Newest Inspirational Poems (4,949)

she was tough
(as they come)
in a coat
of pain

she was harder
than diamonds
left out
in the rain

and she smiled
qualified
at how life
slipped away

and she wallowed
in strength
tíl her
final day

no one
knew her
her fame
was too great

so she built
a blood moat
that circled
her fate

sexy as hell
cold
as a stream

her talent
too vast
to thrive
in a team

so let it
all out
you might
as well

the back door
to heaven
is the entry
to hell

so sleep
little bird
but soar
like prayer

and I'll tell
the world
that once
you were here

I spit bars for the cruel n the kind
And stars shine brighter when ya free up the mind
In a world where the blind are leading blind
My suggestion for progression is to knock seek n find
Banging on those same hollow doors
But I gots my path n you got yours
Drama baggage n flaws
And perception makin wars
In that mind heart n soul
Anger upset they're on a roll
Remember what you put out comes back
So keep being angry n you'll get back just that
Flip this script quick like an acrobat
Battery fully charged n never flat
Just like the sun
Shine that light until your last breath is done
There's no reason
Every day it is your season
The sun doesn't question whether to rise or not
Whether to shine or not
You came to live so give it all you got
With a shot
Of respect
A bag of gratitude worn round ya neck
Songing n singing what the heck
The ship might wreck
But I'ma survivor
Ting called deep sea diver
Created to win
Paint a picture of ma teeth dem skin
With all this trial n test I stay bless
Ma joy n laughter manifests the very best
Negative depress n stress
Pleeaaaase
You're justa pest
Eyes open
Get ma shine on
Shine so bright n ROAR like lion
The darkness must pass through you but we strong like iron
We came here not to fear
And yet we came to fear
And do what we gotta do anyway
Work hard
And play
Much harder
Appreciate this moment of life
Don't let time be your master

When words that sink too deeply
Into our hearts like a knife
Our feelings discarded so cheaply
The true meaning of this life

When times that last too briefly
And so colorful is the rose
Are taken away as thiefly
Such beauty lost and goes

When life becomes too weary
Into dusk the day will grow
Sleepless as night is dreary
Despite all the stars that glow

When dreams become too scary
And darkness becomes old
One cannot become too wary
Until all the lies are told

When trust can save us really
So great a need in strife
Is something given so freely
For those who honor life

When faith renews so freshly
Just like the turning tide
Is all needed so specially
So smiles no longer hide

Respect is way over due
You don’t know what I am going through
Much less him or her
Stop judge n concur
Respect you
Respect me
Respect each n everybody
Respect breeds grace n harmony
A simple key & it is free
For what I put out comes back
That’s a natural spiritual fact
So that sudden impact
Of respect to me
Coming in like reflections reflectively
A sure cure to emancipate n free
That mind
That soul
After all isn’t that the goal
Give respect
Let it reflect
With intelligent intellect
You can perfect
This flow of energy
Not necessary to dwell in so much misery
And that’s the point you see
Perception tweak agree disagree
All I can do is speak think n act for me
If you feel it lika fisherman reel it n heal it
I mean
Your own soul
Give respect and watch the magik unfold

Laugh
Laughing that freakin azz off
Laughing it like art of Rembrandt n Van Gough
Laugh even harder when they telling you to stop
Ya may not get it now but oh my gosh when the penny drops
Them 1nes
Try hold it in maybe cover ya mout
Face twitching n itching to let it out
Eye filling with water, trying not to scream or shout
Maybe the environment is giving ya some doubt
Then all of a sudden you forget who is about
The joke too sweet
Forced to skin teet n finally let it out
Feel this energy
Churning in ya belly
Lika burning in ya belly
Signals to the brain saying this shizz is funny
So then laugh a little more
And though your humour might be twist
And though many are butt hurt n pissed
Feeling positively dissed
Laugh at that shizz too
Laugh at the news
Laugh at the blues
Laugh because it’s a choice that you choose
Laugh at what they say n what they do
Forget the what when or why
The more you laugh the more you’ll realise
Everything is funny
Me I be like Bugs Bunny
What’s up Doc?
To me it’s very evident
Lika present
Laughter a gift n indeed the bestest medicine
Literally
Creating chemicals that stream through the system
They fight to deactivate negativities influence
Very important to laugh at yourself
Though always laugh at everybody else
The laughter renews the health
Some call it blasé
Some will never understand it when I say
Joy really is the most powerful key
Even more powerful than Love n I’ll prove it you’ll see
Without joy there can be no Love
Without smiles n laughter there can be no joy
Now I hope you’re getting my point
Wait a minute let me light this joint
Puff Puff Pass
Get some sensimelia in your azz
Haahaaahaaaa
Laugh man
Laugh woman
Why?
Because life is really a joke
We’ve been tricked into believing do n don’t
Politically incorrect
And every word n action is disrespect
Lighten up
Take a pew
If you can’t then I will laugh at you
Your blue shoes
Your hair do
Your tiny or your giant boobs
If you’re a guy ya may have moobs
My best friend name is YouTube
While they stay serious n focused on problems
I’m in the lab getting ma joy on to solve them
Cos happiness manifests the very best of the blessed
Burning away dark clouds n disintegrating stress
Looking in the mirror when ya feel like a hot mess
And remember life’s for living n everything is just a test
Laugh yes
Laugh hard til that vibration in ya chest
Sings nothing but blessed
I’ve proved it before
Laughter is the key & cure
To open up your mind n hearts spiritual door
A greater tighter connection to your
Higher self
Increase of health
And don’t start about the wealth
What is money really? Just paper
When you’re in your highest joy you become a money maker
Everything manifests naturally
Effortlessly
Spiritually
Because you are at the best you can be
I said it already
Smile leads to laughter
Laughter leads to joy
Joy leads to Love
Such a powerful tool of which we know so little of
Be my guest I’ll be your clown for the day
Laugh at my skinny a** you don’t even have to pay
Lika game come let’s play
This power of joy can n will brighten any day
Let the laughter continue

This journey through my own soul
Come lika black hole
When I think I reach an end it only bends
Again n again
Through perceptional intent or non intentional
Con n unconventional
Whiling n spiralling
Still I’m confiding in
This being that is me
My purpose n responsibility
Simply
Be the best me I can be
Let ma vibration ripple out reflectively
Respectively
Affect n infect all of me
Fuel injecting
Curb n correcting
Pe pe per perfecting the essence of this present
By remaining present
Accepting this gift
Naturally
Spiritually uplift
Every crevice & rift
Shine on boy
This world’s your toy
Bring the happiness n endorse the joy
And though negative people annoy
Smile anyway
It’s their game too let them play
And bend yor perception a different way
I say I say
Have a nice day

flailing wire
bars ripped from the ether
sinew wrapped
around the neck
fingered fury
bringing forth a
sonorous salute
suckin' in the air
here I come again now baby
like a dog on heat

A Man should treat his Lady with, honor. respect, dignity, grace, loyalty, passion, and tenderness. Bring her flowers, candy, cards, and presents. Do everything possible for her to have her me time. Do more for her than he does for himself. Show and tell her how much he loves, adores, and admirers her. Make her laugh, smile, and giggle. Do the unexpected. Tell her how beautiful she is. Be spontaneous at the right time. It's about her needs, desires, wants, and dreams Take his time and make sure she is pleasured first. Weather he gets his or not. Leave the past in the past. Or place blame on anyone if it was his responsibility to do as such. Do whatever, anything, and everything it takes protect her and keep her safe. Don't let anything or anyone stand in his way of his want and devotion for her. Trust her. And above all, treat her as the Goddess she is.
A man should not ever, harm, ridicule, hit, argue, disrespect her, (or the kids), lie, steal, cheat, hide facts, abuse mentally, emotionally, or physically in any way. Call her a liar. Call her rude, vulgar, hateful, hurtful, disgusting, and demeaning names. And above all not ever yell at her or raise his voice in a threatening manner. If she started yelling at him first, it means he gave her a reason to. Which is worse.

Last year expired to sounds of Auld Lang Syne,
The bells of Christmas past are heard no more,
A 'New Year Toast' is raised with mulled red wine,
Before December bills come through the door.

New resolutions made with fervent mind,
So sadly most are destined not to last,
And in such broken promises you'll find,
A mirrored image of a failed year passed .

Act kindly to a pauper on the street,
Is all your spare cash for the bargain sales ?
Give help to some old pensioner you meet,
Or will it be another of your fails ?

Though '21 it was a trying year,
We must dig deep...for coping skills to delve,
Farewell old year, I doubt we'll shed a tear,
I couldn't wait to hear the clock strike twelve.

I send you all good tidings with fine cheer,
Straight from the Em'rald Isle across the miles,
May all your Covid worries disappear,
And future frowns may all revert to smiles.

I am sorry this is not a poem,
though, I could make it one, I suppose..
The thing is, since I lost my husband,
I've not really, felt able to compose.
What I would like to ask, if someone should happen to know,
Is how to go about getting a book of my poetry published here..
To leave for my kids, and grandkids, when my Good Lord calls me home?~
