Writing a poem is not about bringing some words together to create some charming sentences. It's so much deeper than that. Writing poetry is a bridge that allows people to express their feelings and make others live every single word they read. Poetry is to educate people, to lead them away from hate to love, from violence to mercy and pity. Writing poetry is to help this community better understand life and live it more passionately. PoemHunter.com contains an enormous number of famous poems from all over the world, by both classical and modern poets. You can read as many as you want, and also submit your own poems to share your writings with all our poets, members, and visitors.
Laughs the happy April morn
Thro' my grimy, little window,
And a shaft of sunshine pushes
Thro' the shadows in the square.
Dogs are tracing thro' the grass,
Crows are cawing round the chimneys,
In and out among the washing
Goes the West at hide-and-seek.
Loud and cheerful clangs the bell.
Here the nurses troop to breakfast.
Handsome, ugly, all are women . . .
O, the Spring-the Spring-the Spring!
...
Love is not a profession
genteel or otherwise
sex is not dentistry
the slick filling of aches and cavities
you are not my doctor
you are not my cure,
nobody has that
...
Parallel colors go on forever, others swirling and merging,
Hued rainbows and smoky sunsets, from a chaos surging!
Hanging from the Christmas tree, ruby peppermint candy,
And circus clowns entertain us, attired so gaily and badly.
Often seen on animals, birds, leaves and even mountains,
Coloring all the days of our lives, from mystical fountains!
Arrayed all in purple stripes, the mischievous joker is wild,
Sharing this streaked world where very nature has smiled.

Still tears in the eyes for our Brave Haiti
Still tears in our eyes for our incredible Country
Still tears in our eyes for our mortified, martyred
Bludgeoned, tricked, tortured, vilified and murdered victims

My Devoted Beloved
She remains in deep love to follow me
Her charming style attracts me like a magnet
Her enchanting eyes are like a vast sea
...
It's known the left abhors white privilege
A fact they don't believe in hidin'.
So, now, would a good example be
Let's say, none other than Hunter Biden?

Encore des larmes aux yeux pour notre brave Haïti
Encore des larmes aux yeux pour notre incroyable Pays
Encore des larmes aux yeux pour notre peuple mortifié
Martyrisé, matraqué, truqué, torturé, vilipendé et assassiné

Positive thoughts make people see good things happening though world is in turmoil;
Many simple ones hear, see, speak and do good things to live good life ever;
Knowledge of truth give them courage to go on the route of right path to progress;
Rich harvest they make at the end of the year to celebrate New Year with joy!

Born as students
To study life
Wisely alert
So maturing
...
Where are you, my friends?
My heart is bleeding
My soul is searching
Spirit is dying
...
Loving every moment then,
Walks across a crowded beach,
If only to go back again,
The past is sadly out of reach.
...
It really is true
The present of life
Will always be wrapped
In trouble and strife
...
The papers are wet with ink.
Russia is losing it's war.
North Korea is swamped with the Covid.
Tucker is backpedaling his replacement theory.
...
I Am Blessed
My sweet heart you are heart to heart with me
I am the fortunate in the universe I must admit
Let me dive in the ocean of beauty to just see
