Popular Poems About Learning

Behind the daytime of my worn eyes.
Throughout the black static of my mind.
Exists an endless ladder that winds.
It climbs past memories drawers.
Where the long forgotten is stored.
Memories, both warm and cold mental burns.
Keys to doors of what we have learned.
Crucial reminders of knowledge earned.
It's time to descend with thoughts elated and free.
And open enlightened eyes to finally see.
The now of the ripest possibilities.

Will I ever know why
making a wish is so hard?
Turning a wish into a truth.
Hold the breath until I'm blue.
Why should I...
Why could I...
Why would I even try?

No year is ever so new.
No bone is easy to chew.

So let me simply just blow you
a kiss... a kiss... a kiss...
Let's wait for the blizzard to end.

I swear to you no one else will know.
No soul was harmed in the making
of this movie slow motion!

No light is clear until meeting
the darkness.

A single junco hopping carefree;
pecking stray seed in the snow.
The bird fully embraces the world it knows.
It's tiny heart thumps in gratitude;
for the wondrous discovery of food.

There is a difference between nice and kind;
you will hopefully someday find.
Being nice, you are pleasant and agreeable;
only to make yourself shine
in another's judgemental eye.
If you are kind, you have a deeper level of compassion
for a person's needy cry.

I saw you and felt you.
Through a screen.
I don't need, the real thing,
To know what's infront of me.

You caress.
All around me.
Like the multiple eyes,
Of angels I can't see.

You're the caregiver,
Of a cripple.
Doing the dirtiest deed.

I felt you pick me up.
I saw you stop me bleed.
I knew you wouldn't give up,
Even when I think I'm nothing.

You don't need to hush me up.
You don't need to give me your family.
I am just a kid on a bus,
Being tortured and bullied....
