John Sensele Poems

Forever you and I pine for the caress crest
Listening and fastening to sounds of care
You and I cultivate in our intimate interest
Far beyond the structure and rapture we so impressed
...

Sometimes you'd better let go
No point in clinging to a flailing flame
Heartaches by the dozen you can forgo
If no matter how much you try you're no closer to your goal
...

In spite of my cares, a smile I ought to engage
For it helps me not to fan flames of the rage
Boiling over inside my soul
Scoring and storing an own goal
...

I tell no lies my children
Great life I led with my brethren
Plenty bucks in our pockets
Always at the ready in our ration rockets
...

Gone without meals for days
Stomachs grow angry nowadays
Roaming from dirge to rage
Tired of being a hunger hostage
...

Don't unfasten our flowchart
When our avid arms entwine
Each of us playing more than a platonic part
Our love we grow into an art
...

Deplete birdies and eddies of spite
Heighten causes and throes of tolerance
Incentivize aces and paces of your freedom fight
Worry not about arsenals of their might
...

Love freely we receive, freely we ought to give
If much in love we strive to achieve
The more in love we invest, the more in love we get
For all mistakes made in love, let's strive to forget
...

Marriage and career seldom bury the hatchet
Marriage and career sometimes swim in the same pool
Career a pride of place packs in a packet
Marriage spins a flexible spool.
...

Thoughts drive my mind
Making me happier
In thoughts health and wealth I find
...
