Inspirational Poems (4,950)

Im a director of movies, and so are you, I am famous, so are you too, you started with nothing, you have written the script, oh how it show be, and what people will see,,, are you poverty stricken? or eatiing kentucy fried chicken? Are the extras moving in?,, of where you have been?,,,have you somthing more to give?,, or are you happy how you live?
How will you direct where you go from here?, allow someone else,, because of your fear? Remember you are the director of where you go,, how you live,,,you make it so!
Tommorrow will come, if we are here, and if it does not,, dont worry,,, nothing to fear.

With a whole lot to say
At the bottom of that ballot
Was a box for an X.

Yet you studdered in pen
What you needed to say.

Look around you it's real
Beyond media hype!

Genial circus
With membership growth!

Self imposed blinders
Keeping it calm!

The future is yours
Yet in shadow you lurk!

My God can't you see
What's inside of that train
It keeps passing by
As each ticket is sold!

All future resides on our words being said
Yet, you curl up in a corner ingesting the news!
While it floats on by your reasonable mind.

Diversion attraction call it what you may
You're are part of the price the future must PAY!

The wonderment of life is lost in the trouble and the strife, dont take it all as true, your world is only you, you can give or you can take, you can be real or you can be fake, you can play this game that we adhere, theres nothing lost, nothing to fear, for you will cease and you wont be, until,,,, you are another entity,,,reborn amd new,, lets start again,, new you!

Is the pursuit of peacefulness worthwhile
Such as I discover in watching others
There is genuinely warmth in my smile
When I greet everyone as a brother

If the sun always shines somewhere
Does that mean my dreams are always possible
Not only for my own success is all I really care
Whatever mind my will makes unstoppable

Mistakes only make me want to press on
Get over them and beyond their past and dread
Just as each new day will bring a dawn
So why not enjoy brighter skies that still lie ahead

I think well of myself and life and peace
To live in harmony with all of God's creatures
Let me not take away nor rob and fleece
Just let creation portray all my features

Peace is always found in time and space
With faith and truth be the best I can be
All I really need to do is share my grace
And promise to be true to the best in me

A seafood risotto
mussels, mushrooms, a little salt
I'm pouring a little Cabernet
listening to Chet Baker and Paul Desmond
on Jim Hall's album Concierto
the tune Concierto de Aranjuez
if you haven't already
do it tonight
do it for your soul
don't let life slip by
without at least one listen
masterful

The sky is ragged
And stars
Got visible in the holes.
The smell of rain
Has become
The only perfume for your soul.
You are canning summer air
In jars
So that November
Could be slightly diluted
With joy of June,
With shooting stars of August,
The tender sea waves of July
And love of March and April.
You preserve your thoughts,
Dreams and feelings
To open all the jars
On the New Year"s eve.
So in a kaleidoscope of emotions
You are the one who turns the earth..

Just as the willow
does not yield to the flood
nor fear the rains
spilling from the crags

nor does the tall pine
that severs the sky
fear the lightning shot
from the thunder ground

we shall not fear
this cursed pestilence
O! brave poets
of the corner

from whom the finest lyrics
are drawn from the rock
as did Arthur wield Excalibur
onwards into the storm my compatriots

My hearth melt when i contemplate the hidden secret, of night blanketing sheet of the overpowering darkness gloomy night, thick and tangible, with no glimmers of light and no traces of life...

Balance...

Two sides of the same coin.
All points in a circle.

Synapses
and metaphorical bloods.

Come together...
Forged up- from will to hand
to remind me of the reason.

So find me-
Rarest, rawest form.

I have learned
to howl my marrow out.

I have learned to love the silence.

I am ready.

Look!
Look look!!
Look look!!
Look ya.....
When I put ma finger to da pen
Uncomprehend what I comprehend
Literally making ma mind bend
To curb
My egos influence
To open
My magnificence
A light bright enough
To burn away da fikkin huff n da puff
Call it smooth when it's rough
Taking this life by the scruff
Of the neck
It may not be perfect
But what is perfect?
Just a perception
All is really perfection
In the Most Highs eyes
But you keep looking up to the skies
He or she who is wise
Cuts all ties
Cos you know that the prize
Resides n relies
Upon n inside of you
Can you remain true
To you?
And manifest the best in all you do
Do it with joy n laughter
Be a happiness master crafter
Carving brilliance from stone
From dry n dead bones
Not by preaching
Or teaching
But by owning the shizz that you're in
Lead by example
Take a sample
Of your own truth
Look in the mirror
Say
I Love you
And mean it
Live it breathe it give n receive it
Power up baby
