Poems
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.
I SEE before me now, a traveling army halting;
Below, a fertile valley spread, with barns, and the orchards of
summer;
Behind, the terraced sides of a mountain, abrupt in places, rising
high;
Broken, with rocks, with clinging cedars, with tall shapes, dingily
seen;
The numerous camp-fires scatter'd near and far, some away up on the
mountain;
The shadowy forms of men and horses, looming, large-sized flickering;
And over all, the sky--the sky! far, far out of reach, studded,
breaking out, the eternal stars.
...
The moonlight breaks upon the city's domes,
And falls along cemented steel and stone,
Upon the grayness of a million homes,
Lugubrious in unchanging monotone.
Upon the clothes behind the tenement,
That hang like ghosts suspended from the lines,
Linking each flat to each indifferent,
Incongruous and strange the moonlight shines.
There is no magic from your presence here,
...
Aren't you done living this way?
To save this heart from further dismay
Claiming what you are not
And not knowing your worth
From this very act when will you refrain?
From things that are eating up your brain
Having legs but walking with clutches
Looking old but living like apprentice
When good thoughts approach your senses
You do stuff without taking chances
...
Oh little beautiful queen,
Or should I say more than a queen,
So adorable like a shining gem,
Smiles of more than a shimmering gem,
...
In all nations, there is a feast
with two sides, called the rich and poor
The rich devour mercilessly
...
Infinity beckons
On the wings of the future
Sweeping back
To the deepest past
...
There was a man named Adam
Who loved a girl named Eve
Until one day that girl
Changed into a boy named Steve

I would like to thank you for your kind and very generous comments.
I do reply but I am not sure if you can see them or not as they vanish!
...
You can be a messenger
Thats alot
Its godly
You can find the source of the action that speaks of the legend,
...
Gaze
And I hope you don't mind the daze
By the voices of architectural beauty
Spoken from the midst of indigenous trees
...
Youth takes its stance from happenstance,
arriving before anything is ready. Powerful,
and full, leading to a falls.

~~~~ Relics of Little Big Horn ~~~~~
Hill Top Deposit of Past Ghost
inches down, Relics of Men we Toast
...
Is this everything?
Perhaps....yes,
Perhaps.... no,
Nobody clearly knows,
