John Sensele Poems

Shed no tears if Jim, Jack or Jill
Should shamble away to link up with Bill.
Free choice for folks to make
Don't you claim it's fake.
...

Hope for the best
Pass a tenderness test.
To all folks give much love
Flown on wings of a dove.
...

Common sense, larger than life
Encapsulated in minds that appreciate sanity's value
To actualize and revitalize purposes more precious than strife
As people of goodwill enable diverse dreams to come true.
...

Focus, the master key that unlocks
Stoutly locked doors to your future
Feeds on discipline that blocks
Distractions and fractious fractions in your culture.
...

Social Media, a much maligned platform
Neither incites nor recites cretin creeds to form and inform
Cultures and futures steeped in heaps of disorder
Which account holders in their folders call to order
...

The forlorn love, torn from a lonely heart
Growing weary, vowing in infatuation to play no part
In home hostility and usurped utility
Scorned and shorn of humility
...

I drop my guard and rabble raps my door
Which welcomes no anachronistic arrays
To dampen the mood on my floor.
...

Poetry peoples my planet with joys and jingles I contemplate
Empowered, enlightened and elevated in my mind
Images flow and glow at a speed no other genre can manipulate.
...

The demise of tears and fears fraternizes no frown
From my heart honed to handle an emphatic event
That stresses the face and pace of concerns in my town.
...

I have loved the best
In my tenure as a blue-eyed boy
Injecting zeal and zest in my quest.
...
