Nichole Kaci McKnight Poems

the raging sea water
the motion of the ocean
waves are receding
...

I reached for you without any hesitation and I must reminisce.
You tempted me with your promise of sweet unadulterated bliss.
This temptation sometimes can not be controlled, almost everyone can relate.
This temptation I write of can strike most of us from nine to ninety, so do not hate.
...

Tell me why there are blue birds in the sky?
Please tell me why my little sister had to die?
Why can’t some of us find true love’s embrace?
Can you tell me why some people live in disgrace?
...

A well crafted cliché can express exactly how we feel.
Just like a good salesman knows the art of the deal.
Another cliché advises us that an apple a day can keep the doctor away.
Did you know even William Shakespeare wrote using an occasional cliché.
...

They say art often imitates life.
Why do we feel so much strife?
I really don't know the true meaning of life.
A well crafted word can cut just like a knife.
...

This constant complaining is always somewhat draining for us all.
Most of mankind must realize that life doesn't always enthrall.
Humanity will always continue moving forward with its own destination.
Hope is one of the reasons for all of mankind’s unending modification.
...

They say life is like a bowl of cherries.
Why did my sports car crash into a ferry?
I know a man named Larry.
I don't know why the man mades me wary
...

Why am I so philosophical, a philosopher a long time ago once wrote.
The song writer, script writer, poet and novelist like to use a great quote.
Some poems are written with a catchy rhyme and a theme.
A well crafted word can help and be a great writers dream.
...

This year marked the anniversary of your death.
When you first died I couldn't take a breath.
I can't believe you've been gone so long.
It's sad you died at twenty-nine, you were wronged.
...

I once awoke in a fury, and my mind was in a hurry.
All life is bleak and bleary.
The body is weak and the soul can be weary.
For all of mankind is in chaos theory.
