Inspirational Poems (4,948)

Hi all,

Poetry traffic has been very slow on "The Corner" for a while, so I'm laying down a challenge for all poets to write something, anything, even if it doesn't rhyme.
(The treacherous subject
is "Love".)
So get those pens out and share your thoughts.
All poets welcome !!

Good Luck....
Mick.

*** Dunes ***



“Foot steps
On sand;
Marks reign
Where winds
Blow dust
To fill
Such waste
In stirs
Of flute; -

*** Root ***

Sun sets
A path
From east,
To south,
White hawks
Hunt close,
Weird flights
Soar hopes
For peace; -

*** Root ***

Deep eyes
Sink in, -
Dunes weave,
Like grains
Bend gems
On rays, -
Swift, sharp,
Chimes call
Raw winds; -

*** Root ***

Can you
Feel thirst? –
Who could
Give price
To life. -
If not
Same soul
Who knows
To heal?..”

*** The Edge ***



“Just hold
This stone;
Whole earth
Could fit,
To bind
Thy mind,
But more,
Sky has
No limit; -

*** Root ***

Dull edge
Gives shape
To change, -
These rocks
Felt rains
And storms;
Each crack
Bares signs
Of Time; -

*** Root ***

Sharp edge
Makes sense
Of what
You hold, -
Deep sea,
High peak,
Waves, weaves,
Of same
Known core; -

*** Root ***

Thy self
Still search
New ways
To rise,
For bright
Must be
That soul
Who knows
Each edge.”

*** The silent teacher ***



“World sink
In noise, -
All seem
To scream
Dark times,
Chains bind
More evil,
- Slaves, bow,
Kings, rule; -

*** Root ***

Could you
Find rest? -
Tides come
To shore,
Waves wash
Dull stones,
Thoughts sail
In squeaks,
Their weave; -

*** Root ***

All but
A dream; -
You strive
To live,
With lies,
Through fears,
Then cope
With tears; -
Soul, dies… -

*** Root ***

What is
So sad? -
Each then
Must feel,
To learn
From deeds,
For good,
Like light,
Breaks evil.”

*** The good will ***



“Keep find
Right path
To what
You are; -
World looks
So strange,
For all,
With time,
Will change; -

*** Root ***

To be -
Is verb
Of life,
- Thou art
A spark,
To lean
On fate
And sing
Thy song; -

*** Root ***

To live, -
At strife,
What is
To win,
To loose, - ?! -
Thy heart,
In weaves,
Must see
It clear, -

*** Root ***

No speech,
If rife,
Will give
Right sense,
For truth
Of what
World gives,
Is just
A glimpse; -”

*** Chirps ***



“Old monks
Came close
To hear
My birds; -
Hearts dwell
In love,
When springs
Of tears
Seek life; -

*** Root ***

Such bliss,
To have
No fears!.. –
- No words
To shove,
To sculpt,
In wood,
Or stone,
Burnt tears; -

*** Root ***

These birds
Are free,
Like what
Is Thee
To me, -
No cage,
No chain,
No whip,
No sword, -

*** Root ***

For each
Tight chirp,
A tune
To heal,
To mend,
To care, -
I climb
Their stairs
And feel; -”

*** Motion ***



“Could you
See through
Dew drops? -
Dim shades
And sparks
Of light,
Bent curves
To wraps
In sprite, -

*** Root ***

Here, low,
Pale stones,
Shrink sight
Of hues, -
Trees bow
To write
Their rite,
While cones
Spread cues; -

*** Root ***

Up there,
High brims,
Where clouds,
At peaks,
Catch flight
To dance
On clues
Of blues
In trance, -

*** Root ***

All but
A flow, -
In each
Of them,
A muse
To grow,
From stem,
- A stream
To fuse; -”

*** Trails ***



“Three snails
Search lore, -
With each
Small slip
- In depth,
Count stones,
Roots, leaves, -
Smooth, steep,
Bright trails…

*** Root ***

None seem
To ask
Where paths
Will meet,
Nor task
To gleam
On straths
In heat,
At dusk; -

*** Root ***

None seem
To tell
What right
Or wrong,
- In sight,
Their song, -
But for
How long
Will last?.. -

*** Root ***

Take heed
Of all
That is
A home; -
What do
They need?
Stay low,
- Then hear
Their call; -”

I Am
Because
I=AM
Dwells
Within

There is a heaviness that falls upon the soul
Demanding a precise and exacting toll
Measured in endless nothingness day and night
Obscuring the distant horizon of glimmering light

What is this innervated feeling of hopelessness
Banishing the mind in degrees of dispossess
Emotions fading and falling to the barren ground
Sunken depression pushes deep and profound

Time moves slowly in a grand progression
Devoid of voice affecting definitive expression
Anticipating soaring on whirlwinds of change
Replacing the darkness in a swift light exchange

Feelings evaporate into undusted thought
Oppression laden in full anxious fraught
Lift up the lucid burden of minds unchained
Live a life in union with peace unrestrained

Glance back on memories in cloyed reflection
A mission of freedom in adjunct projection
The misty sunrise of breaking new days
Washes over heaviness like simple nosegays

Visions reflect a new dawning to apprise
Carrying thoughts to accelerated highs
Contemplate the emotion of passionate elation
And emerge like a butterfly a most unique creation
