Short Poems
1. “Melancholy Meadows”
The fields of green and gold,
Stretch out before me,
But my heart is heavy,
And my soul is weary.
2. “Nighttime Serenade”
The sound of crickets,
And the rustle of leaves,
Are the only things that break,
The silent still of night.
3. “Whispers on the Wind”
Softly spoken secrets,
Flutter on the breeze,
And I strain to hear them,
But they elude me with ease.
4. “Silent Prayer”
My lips move soundlessly,
In a silent plea,
As I ask for guidance,
And for blessings to be.
Medium Poems
Autumn Leaves
Autumn leaves on the ground,
A sea of gold and red,
Whispering their final sound,
Before they lay to rest.
The wind whispers gently,
As the leaves dance and twirl,
The trees lose their beauty,
But it’s all part of the natural world.
The crunching sound underfoot,
As we walk through the park,
Reminding us of what took root,
Before the days were dark.
Autumn leaves, a final farewell,
Before the winter cold draws near,
Their beauty forever will dwell,
As we anticipate spring’s new cheer.
In the Stillness
In the stillness of the night,
When everything is quiet and calm,
The stars shine so bright,
Guiding us with their charm.
The moonlight casts a glow,
A mystical, enchanting sight,
The silence speaks a language we know,
In the peacefulness of the night.
The sky is a canvas,
Painted with stars so bright,
Each one a story encompass,
In the stillness of the night.
The world seems so serene,
And life feels so right,
In the stillness of the scene,
On a tranquil starry night.
The Ocean’s Song
The ocean sings a melody,
A tune so pure and free,
It dances in the waves,
And flows endlessly.
It whispers to the shore,
A lullaby so serene,
It echoes through the seashells,
And becomes a dream.
The rhythm of the waves,
A symphony of sound,
The music of the ocean,
Forever to astound.
It’s a song of life and love,
Of heartache and of pain,
The ocean’s power and majesty,
Forever to remain.
Oh, hear the ocean’s song,
Let it fill us with bliss,
Let it carry on and on,
Forever in its kiss.
Long Poems
A Journey Within
I close my eyes and start to dream,
I let my consciousness take the lead,
I’m floating now, it seems so real,
Thoughts and memories become a reel.
I see myself through someone else’s eyes,
I see the world from different skies,
I see love that’s pure and true,
I feel the pain and joys anew.
I travel to places I’ve never seen,
I meet new people, kind and mean,
I see life through multiple perspectives,
I break some molds and change perspectives.
I explore the depths of my own soul,
I find new treasures and hidden goals,
I feel the conflicts and the peace,
I come to terms with the release.
I take a break and breathe in deep,
I feel the calm and let it seep,
I open my eyes and feel refreshed,
Ready to take on life’s new test.
For in this journey deep within,
I find the strength to start again,
To live my dreams and be my best,
To seek the truth and love, no less.
