Best Common Ground Poems


Common Ground
Starry night, Star bright shine your light!
It’s a lost world traveling at a rapid speed.
Oh guide me and teach me to properly lead.
For I am down here where nothing is right!
 
Send me a wind to take my flight,
And let them all take heed!
I am...

Trying To Find That Common Ground
trying to find that common ground
is best done when trying is not even in thought
letting the self go is not always two plus two
however, if a good ebb and flow is established, the greatest common denominator is positivity

trying to find that common ground
is the most...

Common Ground


They would emerge
sandy grisly looking beings
mysteriously become a presence,
a part of a momentary event
Following the scent of happiness,
creeping past the invisible sentries,
blending into the fabric of time’s
need for companionship.
They carried the rudiments of fun,
a smile, a stick, two seashells,
a bucket, a bent shovel.
The borders...

We share a love of nature, of the birds and the bees,
a warm zephyr breeze that blows through palm trees

The seasons inspire us to write of beautiful blooms
so vividly described, you almost smell their perfumes

Depicting a sunset as if painted by Monet in the skies
set...

Common Ground 


Air lifted, weightlessness, falling, falling down
Tiny circles, pirouette, searching for common ground...

Enveloped in bitterness, this flight feels so free
Dead within the emptiness of wilted dried up leaves...

Dangerous, unaware of it, the sky is so damn blue
Paralyzed as dementia sets, colorific eyes of who...

Sensing...

We are bound here
By sound we trust....

Mutual Understanding On Common Ground
now there are no battle of wills
now there are no feeble attempts to spotlight and emphasize 
now there are no empty benefits that result in crystalline nothingness
now there is just us....pure and simple....back to cool via the agreement
we now take it light and watch the...

One common ground we all share,
That life maps for us - fair and square;
We do start scattered all around,
Ending up in common ground.
From down below we aren't much worth -
While still above, let's save the earth.

Common Ground
It'll take some time now,
But we'll find our common ground.
I love you most without a doubt,
I'd be a fool to live without.
Time and time and time again,
It's time that it'll take to be your friend.
I'm willing if you are, to find a new start,
Just give...

No Common Ground
5/26/21


Get off your high horse now
Obviously we got no common ground
So quick to put me down
And to spread my business around
The town
Because you think I've been a clown
People like you, I wouldn't help, I'd watch you drown
Because what you got away with, should have never...

We all continue to feed from the soil
Except for the children that starve
Seed our world of turmoil
Save Eden, sow a garden...

Common Ground
(8/30/12)

Here we both stand on common ground
Fighting for recognition when there’s none to be found
Two hearts that have become as one
And has fought every obstacle and has won.

Why don’t people see the love that we share
And if it doesn’t hurt them
Why should they care.

But the...

Common Ground
I have so much 
to offer, so much 
to do, but I 
Stay grounded so I 
can continue doing what 
I do 

life is a gamble 
so they say, take 
risk live a little 
this is a game 
to me so I 
stay focus
