Best Stop And Smell The Roses Poems
Your Strongest DayYour strongest day is standing
just outside your door. Let it in.
Each day the sun comes home to you
it whispers with the wind
calling out your name.
This is no video game.
Life’s a bouquet banquet
made from your reflections.
You do not need directions.
Pick your moments carefully.

A Memorable PersonOn a train going south on business
For what seemed an eternity,
I chanced upon a memorable man
Who changed the path of my destiny
He was itinerant to look at
With tatty coat and shabby shoes,
An unshaven face, his hair unkempt
And string, as a belt on his ‘trews’
He boarded...

Life's Highway
Speeding along life's highway
With the scenery flashing by
Must stop and smell the roses
There's more than meets the eye
We miss the tiny intricacies
Subtleties that mean so much
Life's delightful wee treasures
The warmth of a babies touch
A gentle breeze at daybreak
Welcoming a brand new day
Puffy white billowy...

Smell the rosesSmell the roses
When you’re in an awful hurry and haven’t time to spare
And everything’s a worry you’re rushing here and there
While all the jobs are piling up, there’s dishes in the sink
You haven’t time to wash a cup, you haven’t time to think
Stop... and smell...

''Broken Wings''
Bird in a guilded cage, a broken heart, a solitary soul
Road less travelled, a soul full of longing, my heart bleeds
On a wing and a prayer, my heart is a lonely hunter, a weary soul
Kiss the rose,...

If only there was some way I could see what they see

God gives us to enjoy
The symbol of his love to us
His mercy, peace and joy
A white one, oh, so beautiful
A saviour white as snow
A spotless, shameless, beautiful Lamb
Jesus loves me, this I know
And there's a pretty yellow one
A Christians duty, the...

Promise of a RoseA moment of promise comes
to those who take time
to stop and smell the roses
Heard is this old phrase
once or twice, but still
a promising thought
Petals fragrant and soft
of pure hues delights those
who pursue its delicate form
The rose is full of romance
for many lovers for its...

God's Gift To HumanityGod gave us a gift
this blue marble we call Earth,
He had a divine plan
during the Universe's birth.
He scattered the stars
throughout the galaxy,
His paintbrush was never put down
He was thinking of you and me.
The planets were created
so...

ImagineImagine the sound of bright buzzing bees,
And ripe juicy apples planted on trees.
Imagine the sight of the birds that fly,
Or the airplanes that soar through the sky.
Imagine the fish that swim through the ocean,
And the brown, fuzzy squirrels that cause a commotion.
Imagine the green...

Stop running by the pool
Stop annoying your siblings
Stop picking your nose
Stop Drop and Roll
Stop talking in class
Stop making out behind the gym
Stop mashing your zits
Stop going so fast
Stop staying out so late

Stop underage drinking
Stop having sex
Stop wasting time
Stop lying in...

RosesI sit calmly in the state of shock, disgusted by my generation.
Precious life that so many struggle to have, kicked aside like a soccer ball.
Abusing the temple of our body.
We the youth, blinded by stardom and greatness, not stopping to realize what is more important.
The...
