Most Liked Ode Poems (274)

Here he lies before me, my friend for many years,
he saved me from the water, now I'm frowning in my tears;

Grief is but a poor word for everything I feel,
there can be no greater love;

He was there to guide me through the follies of my age,
always there beside me, everything forgave,
held me as a father, showing me the way,
there can be no greater love;

No fear did he have before the storm,
the fate of others was his only thought,
and though it was the way to certain darkness,
to save my life he gave his own;

For my life he gave his own,
and these words are writ in stone.
where he lies;
"Greater love hath no man than this, that
a man lay down his life for his friend"

Last time we met I think I left your smile with me.
I've been trying to hold on to it until I could give it back to you.
But it's harder than you think.
The damn thing jumps on everyone it sees

It giggles with toddlers
It chuckles with grandmas
and gazes with lovers

It seems like everyone loves your smile, but I'm not selfish.
I won't keep it for myself.
I'll give it back to you and put my one on.

Sweet release, and free flowing fillament.

Theres something to be said about a woman who stands in the middle of a river waiving a stick. She fishes.
The sound of the quiet gives way only to the life of the water you stand in. It beats to a rhythm of fancy and a free flowing soul.

With closed eyes, hear the ages of time as they surrender their stories with voice of a breeze through the knowledgeable trees.

It kisses the leaves with a wisdom of certainty.
Senses revealed and surrounded by scent of untainted life and oh how peaceful the collaboration it has for the need in me..........I can breathe...
Fisher of men I am woman, river, brook, stream, creek no matter...if you see me I need to find a new place to stand.
Memory had a story of may flies hatching soon..fish will be hungry and desperate to feed..Got my fly on, to and fro as I seek my mark it cuts the wind with fine precision. The thought crossed my mind once of how a fish must feel.

Seems a shame to trick a fish with promise of treat, but as I stand in the river for my health as it seems a fisher of the wo part of man here I stand and waiving a stick shakes up my appetite. Must remember that fish do not think so a meal if I catch they will be.

Time of times in the life of a river I stand and I smile.

The odds are stacked against one of us out here, they give hell of a fight sometimes...and sometimes they win. But then again, sometimes so do I.

Beware little trout ...from tippet's first touch, doomed is a fish hit on fly, that tickle you feel is the river saying goodbye.

The best of life's reflections I've found, here, standing in a river waiving a stick.

I always find peace, and dinner if this time I'm lucky.

Your Love is the symphony of my lonely hearts sorrow in repose, the unwitting precociousness of a child's innocence I see in the reflection of your eyes as the elucidation of my happiness dances deep within.

My heart flows with syncopation
as it beats to the dancing winds
of the ~Ruwach~ you hold.

A simplicity of rhythm,
that of familiar duplication
that does comfort my soul.


The Chief Musician inside of me sings to the melody of your Love.

Eye of time changed the forest, the perch
my owl sister, so eternal your search
so mournful your yearn
return

A yellow eye awaken
memory of the moments forsaken?
in your echo a solitary tear
disappear

Lonely calls hauntingly
for the Soul you couldn’t grasp, slipped away, untimely.

Screech my soul her eye closed from the daylight,
dare it scorch the Shadow she holds so dear.

It was shiny as headlight
Its hedges smooth as bright
It came in a box so pretty
and light
Oh what a delight

I open my eyes to see it sight,
then i realize it was mine
alright

My heart was happy
everything felt right
I just knew this was my moment,
to smile with my might


As long as i had it,
all will be right
It takes one day to fall
and another to get up and fight

I smile so much that night
the stars moan with fright
I just felt so happy to get
mine alright

tender is my heart that aches for the union of a pure soul
late autumn moon sheds light on wilted trees leaves almost gone
ancient stars glisten in the crisp evening air
to touch an angels face and cradle her from solemn tear
I am here I am here

Captured thats what i am
captured by your heart's hand
that reached across the miles
holding me in your beautiful smiles


Captured thats what you have done
so i can once more see the sun
every dark cloud rolled back
when you fufilled the lack

Captured in your eyes
with warmth that has no lies
Captured i am yes i'll stay
forever your captive

Love
to love
evol-ve

Time after time we live through the years
We gather our thoughts and take them through
And we never fear
We gracefully pray to god and ask
Always forgiveness
We make mistakes but only to learn from them
As we grow old
As life goes on we make it our path
To love to give to be all as we were made to be
We all share a gift a gift of faith
You all take a part in life to give others the strength
The strength to share a part of ones love
We all gather together not just for sadness
But for the love of one
Look into each other’s eyes and there you will find
An angel
An angel to guide you through all the darkest nights
To look over every one of you and give you the gift of light
The gift of knowing that all lives within your hearts
