Welcome to Motivating Poems

For years we have saved poems, including easy poems to memorize, and quotes, such as friendship quotes, quotes to live by, and, quotes by famous people, quotes and sayings that we found were motivating. We set up this blog to share this poetry with you, we hope you find it motivational and that adds positive inspirational thoughtsto your day! Starting each day by reading positive words can actually help you in having a good day - you see it is our choice - have a good day or a bad one - many times it is our attitude, how we view a situation that determines that! Thanks for visiting, come back again for new poetry.








Featured Poem







Co-operation



Poet: J. Mason Knox







It ain't the guns nor amament,



Nor funds that they can pay,



But the close co-operation,



That makes them win the day.







It ain't the individual,



Nor the army as a whole,



But the everlasting teamwork



of every bloomin' soul.

Sometimes The Sun….

Poet: John McLeod


Sometimes the sun in shining brings
A joy that lifts the heart on wings
Above the lands of verdant green
Over the sandy sea-side scene.

Sometimes the breeze will bring to mind
The windmill’s creak as stone refined
The ears of wheat to health some flour,
Its constancy! Its gentle power!

Sometimes the rain on window glass
Echo’s the pain of times that pass
To leave perception sharpened by
The sunlight caught in dew-drop eye.

For sun and ran and breeze, it’s true
Can light one’s wilting thoughts anew, …
Just as the flowers, we survive
As sun and rain our Hopes revive,

And on the breeze far out to sea
We soar in thought,
Alive and free!
