Spinning Good Advice For Winning !
by mv venkataraman
Experience that you earn,
Must be utilized profitably,
Sad memories, you must burn,
And pursue further indefatigably,
Hopefully wait for your turn,
One day, you will win indubitably,
If efforts produce no return,
Fret and fume not uncomfortably,
Pray to the Lord to show concern,
Without keeping silent unjustifiably,

Advice To A Butterfly
by Maxwell Bodenheim
Aimless petal of the wind,
Spinning gently weird circles,
To the flowers underneath
You are a drunken king of motion;
To the plunging winds above
You are momentary indecision.
Aimless petal of the wind,
Waver carelessly against this June.
The universe, like you, is but

Advice To A Butter-Cup
by Maxwell Bodenheim
Undistinguished butter-cup
Lost among myriads of others,
To the red ant eyeing you
You are giant stillness.
He pauses on the boulder of a clod,
Baffled by your nearness to the sky.
But to the black loam at your feet
You are the atom of a pent-up dream.
Undistinguished butter-cup,

Advice To Maple-Trees
by Maxwell Bodenheim
O little maple-trees,
Slender and unkempt, looking with shaggy askance
Upon the moon-spiked solitude;
O little maple-trees,
Growing a little toward the sky
That touches you to all eyes save your own,
You rattle insistently for wings,
But wings cound never tear
The stain of earth from your feet:
The earth that gnaws at you until

Best Friend Advice
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
Do you remember the time when that buddy...
Tried to give you their best friend advice...
They said “You don’t really have to do this!”
And you didn’t think they were being very nice...
You thought you had made the right decision...
You would be in love ‘til death do you part’
You thought you had married the perfect girl...
Until on your wedding night, all she did was fart...

Love the Life
by Somali Mukherjee
No more will I make life freeze;
I will enjoy my life up to its lowest lees.
Life is short; it is precious;
Life can't stand with things malicious.
Why shouldn't I, why shouldn't I?
Soar with wings up in the sky?
Aye, I do love to dream;
Like the stars, I don't gleam,
But I will shine, shine, for sure;
The more will I shine, the more endure.

An ode to your frozen face
by Julie G
I am moved by your frozen face.
A testament to endless chase, controlling time with needless haste.
But past the mask, your honest life does not deserve to face a knife.
Injections for sale, a culture’s embrace,
A lifetime of living you plan to erase. Our culture's obsessed with endless praise
And authenticity's lost in the haze.
As you chase perfection, an image remade
Do not allow your true self to fade.
In seasons to come, may you welcome a thaw,
for true beauty lies in every flaw.

Bumpy Road
by Percules The Poet
•••
Mind so bright it's bling blanging and blinding so close your eyes.
You're not invincible everything eventually dies.
Even when it's dark you find a way to shine.
Nothing hurts forever but some things take time.
I did not make the rules so don't ask me why.
Don't believe anybody's story there is always 3 sides.
How you feel, how they feel, and what's right.
Stop wasting your breath telling me your lies.
I only believe what is seen with these 2 eyes.
