John Sensele Poems

Pain so pesky
It maims my memory
Pain so cheeky
It evaporates my paper emery.
...

Savour each slice of solace
That from your life subtracts strife
Ties on your shoes the lace
That ensure strong step in your life is rife.
...

Zoom out of negative thoughts
Zoom into prospects of a productive tomorrow
Delete and serrate noughts
From tomorrow, sorrow never borrow.
...

To quaff-if we feel callous
Conceals the void we feel
When because we're jealous
Our sadness and sorrow we can't heal.
...

Each year we make resolutions
Which we seldom implement
Cos along the way solutions
To our blues we fail to cement.
...

Wings of woes and wars wading away
Warm the heart
For so long held captive pray
For freedom in a kingdom soon to dispense a tasty tart.
...

Memories of twenty seventeen linger
Shafts of shimmer from twenty eighteen beckon
For all creatures of credibility to lift a finger
As a token of appreciation a mellifluous morn to own.
...

A new year bestows hope
Promises new pages
Sliding on a salient slope
Where the wise earn deserved wages.
...

Fake news, fake views
Garnered from a single source
Blown out of proportion with no clues
As to whether views add to a ridiculous resource, of course.
...

Don't repine, redefine
Priorities and possibilities
That in the long run mine
On your behalf a plethora of utilities.
...
