Water Poems | Examples of Water Poetry

Playground for the waterfowl, Other creatures swim there too, like the fish and frog. Not a place for humans to swim, because it's gross! Delightful to watch nature's own playground. ...

a roar that swallows the petty grievances of shore white teeth gnashing at the stubborn sand each surge a lifetime beginning in the deep cresting with furious purpose then surrendering to the inevitable pull back a rhythm ancient predating our hurried steps a constant reshaping of what we thought was fixed the salt-laced air a primal breath carrying the weight of untold journeys of ships splintered of secrets dragged down we stand at the...

The weight of the water is heavy in my chest, a force pressing against the ribs. It rises when I don’t expect it, like a flood breaking through cracked, neglected seams. The truck of my memory rumbles through my mind, rusty with age, hauling fragments I thought were extinguished long ago. I paste the pieces...

Under the veil of night, when the stars sing their silence, a wave of fire flows like living water, enveloping the gathered crowd, called by priests to receive the Holy Light, and the hymn of the Resurrection rises, flooding the streets and souls, an echo of eternity, "Christ is risen from the dead, trampling death by death, and...

"Pretty clouds filled with water, then it rains down." By Poet I love to sit and watch the clouds, as they dance across the big blue sky. If I watch and wait what will I see, animals like a zoo walking by. One day I ask a big bright white cloud, where are you going? I was shocked when it answered back, off...

Morning dew clings tight To thin branches reaching to the sky While gravity tugs down. Crystal balls reflect the world While keeping their secrets. Some round, some oval, Frosty beads and clear droplets, Nature's chandelier. Light breaks through water droplets, Forming bridges to the sky.

It feels like screaming underwater. Like I opened my chest, and handed you my lungs. You told me they weren't real. Like I am sitting in a room with the windows shut. Everyone smiling, nodding, laughing, while I am on fire, but nobody smells the smoke. I say what I think, and it echoes back...

Painstakingly perfectly placed path Turn slowly..surely over Fern festooned forest floor Sun dappled glade, bathed and swathed Glorious green sheens in every shade Follow the hidden hollow - through a secret door.. Fairies frolic on tour…bucolic tonic to explore Rumbling..fumbling through moss tumbling dreams Stumbling…rambling, ambling & scrambling Rugged roots hugs…tugs.. rock hewn strewn rugs... Babbling gabbling brooks..dabbling with nooks Where all...

Mankind in all his stupidity and greed is slowly destroying our beautiful earth, the warnings are there but he chooses to ignore them. Quote by poet. I sat down under the cool shade of some weeping willow trees, a babbling brook flowed nearby and was so soothing to hear. I felt totally relaxed then I fell asleep...

Silt collects at the outreaches of an ancient, murky marsh. Twisted tendrils of white oleander form archaic symbols. Deviant rituals, cocooned and lost eons ago, lie awash— Taken to the surface, unleashed by a cacophony of demonic cymbals. Now, time suddenly stops by this grotesque swash. War is waged, and...
