Two Poems from our Inspirational Poems, Motivational Poetry Collection

 
 
FINDING HAPPINESS AGAIN
   
Author: Lee Emmett
   
Poem:
FINDING HAPPINESS AGAIN
   
  in a moment’s sadness can
be found a joyful spark
fan it gently for a while and
it will brighten up the dark

when a loved one dies it seems
the world holds only pain
memories come like buds in Spring
and love can flower again

reflecting truth, a quiet mind
will find peace at last
letting go of old, spent desire
allows freedom from the past

and opens up a heart again
to happiness right now
then hope kindles into flame
showing new paths somehow

when expectation gives way
to actual feeling in the present
dread will melt away and life
will become more pleasant

when the desperate urge to
control the world is quelled
self-awareness and altruism
will complement and weld

reach a state of union where
perception opens wide fresh mind
to possibilities productive
in a universe gentle and kind

IN MY SISTERS SHADOW
   
Author: Marcia Schechinger
   
Poem: IN MY SISTERS SHADOW
   

In my sisters shadow
I walked
Shoes' clicking at her heels
following her through paths
tearing moments of time
for attention
She was the wind
I a slight breeze
She danced with me for years
through our jagged existence
Two silhouettes in the night
tumbling through time
I cursed our brother's death
for she left me
Both two parts of a play
left unfinished
