Two Poems from our Inspirational Poems, Motivational Poetry Collection

 
 
FACING DEATH
   
Author: Anu Arumugam
   
Poem:
FACING DEATH
   
  Children lay motionlessly under the ashes left behind from a grueling earthquake
Houses, close by, tremble with fear, as they are flooded by a nearby lake
Forests, far and near, spread into flames, caused by a carelessly misplaced match
Only once in a million, will a person leave such a disaster, bearing no scratch
Throughout our lives, bloody wars and conflicts will arise
The actions of our leaders may sometimes take us by surprise
Throughout it all, our mouths are sealed, and we believe they're doing it for the best
So with unnerving caution, we put our oblivious minds to rest
Death will always surround us, at school, and even at work
Unruly death caused by the shot of a gun, the stabbing of a knife, or even the prongs of a rusty fork
The irony of all this is that most of us seem to ignore reality, not caring even a bit
Instead of trying to cheat death, we foolishly try to embrace it
We are idiotically flushing our own species down the drain
Foolishly destroying our own kind, we must refrain

Awaken our lives
   
Author: Aaron Johnson
   
Poem: Awaken our lives
   

Awaken Our Lives
This morning had its beauty
In its own different way.
The different risings are soothing,
Giving our lives a different day.

To learn and be thankful,
For what we have done.
To give and be grateful,
For our beautiful morning sun.

Rising to awaken our lives,
And to breathe the mornings air.
Rising to awaken our eyes,
To see our love and care.

Warming our hearts,
To comfort our soul.
To give life a start
Through the days we grow.

Motivating our minds
To commit to our goals.
Introducing our lives to
Believe their is something to know.

Now memories are made
As the moments go by.
The sun sets to end our day
To bring dreams upon our lives.
