The Best Poem Of Anthony Basilovecchio

Living The "Why"

Esteemed, confided in, liked, loved,
Riches of family, friends, acquaintances,
By Many, some, few, or one of the above.
Respect and wealth never willingly relieved;
Fame and Fortune perceived
Is Fame and Fortune achieved.

Meowing, barking, chirping,
Purring, puttering, playing,
Rising bubbles upward.
Eat, sleep, clean;
Comrades souls unifyed, gleaned.

Reversing degradation,
Victorious reformation!
Forgiving self limitlessly,
Loving self unconditionally,
Hope anchored "now" eternally!

Frame welcomes another dart,
Home diminishes another fear.
Gratitude swells the heart,
Joy infuses a tear.

Great novels, teatime, music!
Unforgettable performances,
Inspiring atmospheres.
Concerts, plays, sports, vacations.
Eat, drink, dance, with merriments.
Holidays, holy days, work days,
Memories and remembrances eternal.

Wind whisking leaves to color,
Chill freezing branches to the sky,
Budding transforms the duller -
Warm and clear by and by.

A shoulder for leaning,
A hand to lend solidifying meaning.
Giving gifts for a smile,
Working for humanity all the while.
Providing for the needy to nourish,
Pray and hope time to flourish.

All offenses forgive, Never Forget!
Recall again and again,
To relinquish over and over,
Never Forget!
Friends and Foes we are one,
never forget; Insure No Regret!

Politicians are process,
Voters are glue,
Refusing anxiety and anger
Adhering today to history's cue.
Permitting honesty travel more freely
Perhaps someday without a passport,
Halting deceit everywhere to abort.

Birth and repose enjoins everyone
Living the "why" abundantly fun.
Always considering now,
Rarely rubric's how.
Death, there is no time, down to bow!
