That’s all there is Yes, I know the grammars bad. I don’t really care, I’m free. I don’t write poetry to please my English teacher. I write it because it’s inside of me, and wants out. I’ve never obeyed the rules, designed by men. Those words that keep us in line, like sheep to theContinue reading “Me And God”

Peaceful Moment At Sea
A photo haiku A moment of peace,where the living sea meets me,and we become one. A photo I took on Jekyll Island, Georgia. It’s looking to the west, just before the sunset. The Georgia coast can be seen in the distance, and a ship cruises by. The Golden Isles of Georgia, and the entire coastContinue reading “Peaceful Moment At Sea”
Winter is Gone
A springtime poem The long cold winter is gone.Blood of trees begin to flow.Birds singing a mating song.New plants begin to grow. Wonderful warmth in the air,with raging storms to begin.All the animals are a pair,Life’s cycle begins again. Lakes and ponds warming in the sun.Fish jumping, with splashes fall.In flight, the dragonflies hum.Spring PeepersContinue reading “Winter is Gone”
Created To Protect
Created to protect, this world.From the soil of the Earth, now turned.Mankind formed to love. But, this fallen world full of greed,rapes the land and pollutes the sea.Through love of money. Our animal friends living with us,run and hide, while we come to crush,everything they love. A perfect world; now fallen to filth.A lost paradiseContinue reading “Created To Protect”
Old Man Tree
Old man tree? How long have you been around? What sort of things have you seen? You stand full of might, with limbs still holding life.Despite the age of someand brokenness shone. Your spirit is vast,among the other trees alive.You are planted alone,but, speak to all around. Sun and moon for years,have grown you tall.InContinue reading “Old Man Tree”
In My Life Time
Rebel Poetry By Chris Bunton In my entire life,the worst things to comeupon me,has come at the,hands of respectablepeople, who call themselvesgood. It has not been,scary men, in dark shadows.It has not been,those people, across the sea.It has not been,the conman, stealing my soul. It has been,men and their wives,who own businesses,and lands,and courts,and governments,andContinue reading “In My Life Time”
Pere Marquette State Park
A Villanelle Poem Overlooking the Illinois river,misty morning sun waking up in a smile;on a ridge with beauty forever. Watching the powerful waters devour,miles and miles of golden land while,overlooking the Illinois river. Oak trees of mighty strength standing tall,with shag bark hickory beside in noble file;on a ridge with beauty forever. Frog, turtle and Continue reading “Pere Marquette State Park”

Isolated
Where are you? Alone In a sea of people. Not a place for me. A place where life accepts me. In solitary confinement. Trapped where I don’t want to be. As time drips away. Day by day. Those sands through the glass; flow to the space below. That deep space forever. That six foot deepContinue reading “Isolated”
Refining Fire
Purified through burning Gold bubbles in the pot,burning torment of mind.enough is enough. Anger rages at injustice,vile hatred spews forth,it bubbles to the top. Trouble burns and boils,and more rage pops.The impure scraped away. Darkness glows red,around the boiling pot. Trouble burns bright. Purest gold remains,after melting in painful flame.The filthy dross drawn out. GoldContinue reading “Refining Fire”
