Inspirational Poems (4,948)

A leisure suit is no defence
against the 35C
its a tight hussle
weather and horsemen
the game goes on

skeletal companions
smoking Marlboro
deep in the form
Malay Malay
horse lore in the haze

I move to the English lounge
gratifyingly stand-offish
public school accent
all taken with aplomb
mahogany boardrooms

I'm down 50 by the 5th
El Dorado's in the pocket
burst from the turn
commanding adrenaline
home for a 100

Singapore nights
harbour-side towers
champagne club
tall balconies
hewn from the jungle

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

"Now Listen Up! you maggots
you pimple-arsed poetry wannabe's
sitting there in your chocolate sprinkled candy cone bedrooms
writing about how your boyfriend doesn't call
or By the light of the Silvery Moon,
Let me tell you that's all bullshit, Bull Shit!
I want you to write like a flare just ripped open the northern sky
there's enemy fire from the ridge
and you're so far down in the rocks
you're sucking in the dust of the afterlife.
Do you understand me?"
"Yes Drill Sergeant"
"I want you to write it pierced and thorned
and with every aching sinew I can taste
the road to deliverance.
Do you understand me?"
"Yes Drill Sergeant"
"DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?"
"YES DRILL SERGEANT"
"Now write something that dignifies your putrid existence,
I want your mothers smiling with every waking sunrise"
"Yes Drill Sergeant"

You know him as a hero with a heart of gold
But try to understand
When you say your prayers
Say a prayer for spiderman

He wants good to conquer evil
He wants love to be everywhere
And people are happy when he shows up
Cause they know he really cares

Little kids wave when they see him
Grown ups say yes he can
Do most anything yes most anything
Oh how big the heart of spiderman

No matter how strong the web of love
Some prayer is needed too
And you know when he is there
He makes you glad you are you

When you see the sun shinning upon the water
As on the beach you stroll hand in hand
If it wouldn't be to much bother
Say a prayer for spiderman

Beloved of my dreams
Your love fills the streams
that flow from your channel like honey and cream

Thy fullness and ripeness of
your fruit that glistens of the morning dew
Tis' the season of spring where bluebirds sing

Your scent fills my every breath
I shudder within, pondering your essence
For it reminds me of your truth of your presence

Fair maiden of spring where do I begin to measure your beauty while flowers dance
in a ring
that you may know you are blessed by heaven where angels sing

With a tender kiss of your warmth butterflies dance to their freedom you give
to remind them their reason to live

Your love drips a sticky flow within your petals as your nectar feeds life to hungry bees
As they shake the fragrant dust like fairies to ensure all is fed with the rhythm of the breeze

How I long awaited from the cold of the snow to see you again watching your love grow

I long for your smell and crave your taste yea I know you come not in haste but, in patience to not allow anything to go to waste

For when the spring rain showers its light
The heavens declare when the timing is right

For all who wait for the kingdom come as the prince of peace brings healing to the earth with a gentle embrace
perhaps we all shall meet our beloved face to face

Evening lanterns,
Strung on the fishing line,
Glimpses of light
In my path.
Everything from before
Is not important anymore.
A web of good reasons
To leave ...

There is no salt
In my eyes,
There is no pepper
In my words.
No more pain
In my heart.
I close my eyes
And I fly away.
I absorb the freedom
Of my flight.
I open my eyes
And I see the seas;
Sea of wind,
Sea of color lines
Sea of spring..

Everything  achievable
Is not significant
Anymore.
Only something lighter than air,
Deeper than dreams,
Brighter than  stars
Makes sense to me

A seed was fertilised
For me to be born
Although there was passion
I believe it was torn
The youngest of four
Now on a plane
A new country perspective
And growth again
But alas I feel
My growth did stall
Trying to understand
Words and all
Not quite the same
As those around
Managed to survive
Upon playground
On the outer
But always looking in
It took a long time
To appreciate my grin
I stumbled and fell
Along the way
But that’s another story
And that was my day
Welcomed two boys
Into this life
Unsure of their destiny
Just guided them from strife
They were the lessons
I had to learn
So maturity was a fire
That did slowly burn
Weeks months and years
Passed along the way
A lonelier life
Than some I’d say
But I have been lucky
For choice has been mine
And freedom a life
That is very kind
So now as my energy
Slowly fades away
I can accept my journey
Every other day
Until I find the final end
Ever so near
I will still write
From the heart
And bless every tear ........

In this situation
Where infatuation n auxiliaration
Intoxication of liberation
Wait wait
Yes wait be patient
As it all comes together
Like ya can predict the weather
But whether or not
It's rainy or hot
Depends
And it depends on
Dance dance n sing me this song
Am I write?
Am I wrong?
Could I be high on a bong like Cheech n Chong
Wiv da energy strong like King Kong
m**turbate the mind n mek da Spirit c*m
Cu c*m c*m
Squirt dat shizz out
Action!!!
Not a bag o mout
Trust in this journey as it turn churn n burn me there can be no doubt
So I don't do doubt
I do or I die
There is no try
I am

With joy multiplying
No way I am denying
This truth
Like the connection with da bluetooth
Beaming
Streaming
Infinitely beaming
And seeming
To be
Spiralling through to infinite possibility
Feeling the bless
Like YES
Superman S upon ma chest
Passing trials, tests n quests
Now I open up this treasure chest
POP!!
Out comes the sun
Burning soooooo brightly n the fun can't done
In fact it's only just begun
Feel this rhythm n melody like playin violin n drum
Dee dum
Dee dum dum dum
High on this Spirit it's a bit too early for da rum

Fly me to the moon
Even if it’s on a spoon
I want to go up there and see
The light you shine down on me
You never let me down
Every night you come around
I want to dance
just you and me
Take me to the moon
I’ll sing you a tune
All afternoon
You mesmerized me
You are my prized light
I know tomorrow you will be around
You never let me down
My shinning light
I’m gonna say good night
For tonight
My ever-loving moon.
