Hold On Poem – Fun for National Poetry Month
This week’s prompt was a tribute to National Poetry Month. We had a form with the first word or words and lines to fill. Here are the results from all who took part.
Hold on to life
Hold on to your creative Spirit
Even if life is a drill down
Hold on the love of your life
Even if her life is gone
Hold on to your memories
Even if you’ve let them fade out
Hold on to your motorcycle
Even if the wind slams you aside
Hold on to your pen
Even when your hand is shaking

Hold on to your spirit
Hold on to the quiet
Even if everyone clamors with noise
Hold on to your own opinion
Even if other want homogenization
Hold on to the colors in your mind
Even if eyes fail you
Hold on to your youth
Even if others tell you to act your age
Hold on to your dreams
Even when waves wash away your sandcastle.

Hold on !
Hold on to hope
Even if there is only hopelessness
Hold on to Love
Even if there seems none returned
Hold on to trust
Even if you have been betrayed
Hold on to faith
Even if you’re being tested
Hold on to life
Even when death is near
Ellynore Seybold Smith

Hold on to Love
Hold on to me
Even if I fall
Hold on to us
Even when we are apart
Hold on to love
Even when frustration arises
Hold on to the future
Even if dark clouds hide the way
Hold on to hope
Even when doubt creeps in

Hold on tight – Lover It’s going to be a bumpy ride
Hold on to your man
Even if she walks down the street and takes a peek at your man
Hold on to you man
Even if she has style, class and a bit of sass
Hold on to your man
Even if she’s a Roman candle to hot to handle
Hold on to your man
Even if she’ll always be there so beware!
Hold on to your man
Even when she’s go looks, brains and it far from being tame. She AIN”T getting my man.

Hold on, My Friend
Hold on to all your friends
Even if it hurts
Hold on to me
Even if we’re apart
Hold on to Love
Even if it’s gone
Hold on to me
Even when I’m gone
John Gable

Hold on to my hand
Hold on to my hand
Even if it’s cold and moist
Hold on to it tightly
Even if it shakes
Hold on to it tight
Even if I cry
Hold on to it well
Even if I should fall
Hold on to it please
Even when I say we are there

Hold on to your oversized hat
Hold on to your bathroom mat
Even if they are not matched
Hold on to your house thatch
Even if the wind dies
Hold on to your neckties
Even if they flap above
Hold on to your love
Even if you are sick of this poem
Hold on to your comb
Even when there’s no wind blowing
Nancy Nation

Hold on to the good thoughts
Hold on to them even when age makes it difficult
Even if you wake up one day and don’t know where your are
Hold on to them and cherish them
Even if you fell like there is no time in your busy day
Hold on to them in the darkest night
Even if they cause insomnia
Hold on them–tight
Even if you arthritic hands can grasp nothing
Hold on to them– don’t let them fade
Even when the light grows dim
