| A poem by my daughter Linney:)Yay shes 8
Posted: 12/10/2005 8:04:45 AM | Christmas is a time of year
When everyone gives us special cheer
A time for love and giving
And happiness and friends
A time for sharing and caring
A time to receive and give
A time to decorate,a time to celebrate
A time to discover the true meaning of Christmas
Thats my babay

My mom is sweet
She makes yummy things to eat
Shes cute shes sweet
Her happiness cant be beat
I know she loves me
Because she hugs me
She smells like a flower
Id sit there and smell her for an hour
I love my mommy
      
PS I let my daughter pick the emoticons when we posted this..She has the same sense of humour as me..LOL  | |

| My all time favourite poem written by my 8 yr old daughter Lindsay:)
Posted: 12/10/2005 8:26:22 AM | My Kitties Maymay and Cali
By lindsay
They give the room a lot of light
I love them both with all my might
maymay may be orange
And Cali black brown and white
i still love them both
With all my might
Even though kitties are cats
They do naughty stuff too
Like knock over my projects
And spill all of my glue
maymay likes yarn balls
And Cali loves her basket
They look up to mea and they both think
That Im just fantastic  | |

To Smile
We all do it
It's shows on your face
We can all feel it
Try it, it's great
It comes from here
It comes from there
I know,
I've seen it everywhere
Smile every day,
you shall be cured
Smile in a way,
genuinely pure
Someone will catch it,
I know foresure
It will travel far and wide
Causing joy around the globe
We all understand its power
Small, tall, young, or old
If everyone smiled all together
We would see this world ease
It may not keep or last forever
But in that moment
We would have peace | |

Posted: 12/10/2005 9:03:08 PM | Pain(rough draft) sorry about posting first drafts...i dont like to post a finished work
i sit here alone lost in thought
the nitemares of days gone past haunt me
causing my soul to gasp
some much i have lost
and nothing i have gained but anger and pain
my one true love
before my eyes
went to the bottom i did not rise
my babies murdered before i even see their eyes
my soul screams as it is slowly ripped apart
all i have loved has come to depart
leavin me feelin so cold at heart
alone i sit
knife in hand
blade to wrist to stop this pain
tears flow forth as it peirces the skin
and of you i think again
my life i owe you for i dropped the blade
to you i come my love
it wont end the same
i love you now more than then
you i will never lose again | |

Did you ever see the sun rise
in the morning over the mountaintops?
a sight to behold, signalizing a new day
a chance to begin again and start off
fresh, The storms of yesterday only a
forgotten memory left in the cold
Did you ever see the flowers
bloom in the spring?
sewn by the seeds of yesterdays
frost implanted in the ground
rising up again to spring beauty
where yesterday there was
darkness and decay
Did you ever see the ocean in the morning
waves calmly splashing to shore?
soothing the soul with peace and tranquilness
where yesterday it's fierce waves
and powerful winds, made you cower
in fearfulness
Did you ever have a love that made you
whole and complete?, where everyday was
a new day, a love like this will last for an eternity
yesterday's sorrow will perish in defeat | |

Here's a poem I wrote for one of em. I'am always trying this fer friends utilizing there names or handles etc. Its a simple innocent frolic! Hehehehe.... hey no one tried to answer that bit about the "hehehehe"!
The Mistress of Pain
is here today
just call out to her loudly
and avoid that big stain.
You want to keep on
the good side of her
'cause if you forget
there'll be another one with a bane.
The room is chaulk full
of those looking for gain
no need for another but a
Queen Mischief of Pain!

Posted: 12/11/2005 2:56:48 PM | OKay! Okay! I'll just tell y'all! It's a naught chuckle or laugh,... semi-perverted in a 'nice' fun way.
I find the following to have something of a mysterious lilt/cadence/rythym to it but still find it pretty cool despit its subject.
A purple petal falls
gently to the ground
one teardrop follows another
summer breezes rustle the branches
above his lonely head
having lost what he never had
a spring gushes forth
cleansing his dirtied face
the flower is laid bare
on a flagstone near the bench
where his promises once were dashed. | |

Posted: 12/11/2005 3:23:39 PM | There are a lot of very talented people on board !!!
This poem is about my last 3 1/2 yr common-law relationship. I met him on the net and his handle was White Knight, thus explaining the title. Sadly I STARTED writting it in year one. I finished it 2 months after I booted him. Guess I should pay more attention to the poetry I write.
Shadows in the Knight
Broken dreams, broken promises; who is right, who is wrong?
Does anybody really care.
A heart shone brightly but for a moment,
defused by unwanted discoveries.
Reality becomes disguised with deception,
tearing love apart one petal at a time.
Communication transforms caused by painful truths learned
chasing shadows in the Knight and capturing even the most hardened soul.
Memories of days gone by best left forgotten sour the present, the future, the beginning, the end.
As the light slowly dims,
another chapter draws to a close,
bringing with it a long awaited peace. | |

The Wedding Day
Our love has grown in many ways
if our love was like a flower
there would not be enough
space in the sky to hold
its blossoming petals that
grow larger by the hour
Our souls soar and glide together
as two eagles glide gracefully
and hauntingly above the sky
moving in sync with the wind
people gaze upon it's beauty
hypnotized unable to
look away with their entranced eyes
A love like this comes once
in a lifetime i know in my heart
you were sent from the
heavens summoned by the angels
right from its whirlwind start
Our wedding day begins with
a magnificent rainbow
lighting up the morning sky
stretching over the snow peaked
mountains and across the valley
resting on the middle of the highway
It's as if god is signaling us to follow that path
to the end and that is where our salvation lies
its many treasures saved for us made
up golden memories and polished unbroken
chains of undying love its brilliance
blinding to the naked eye | |

Posted: 12/12/2005 10:20:46 AM | Short and sweet
It's all over except for the crying
I realized my heart was dying
All this bullshit I was buying
Now freedom is what I am eying
Ends the hurt and all the lying
Walks away while she is sighing | |

Posted: 12/13/2005 8:21:32 AM | christmas smells like gingerbread and marzipan
with a hint of chocolate
i like to feel the wind biting at my face
then the feeling as i sit with a lovely cup of tea
eating quality street and watching corrie
i love christmas ,its the only time of year
everyone is pissed in britain at the same time
and we are all happy
its the only time you can eat meat ,gravy,booze and chocolate
in no specific order
i remeber eating my mars selection box at six in the morning
and then watching the racoons on tv for what seemed like a day
syril sneer made me laugh! | |

Posted: 12/13/2005 11:54:30 AM | You walked away from me.
You whispered your reasons many a time.
You walked away from me.
I never understood why.
Why must you so desire the one thing I lack?
You walk away from me.
You whisper your reasons many a time.
As your tears stain my cheek.
As you passionately embrace me.
As your lips brush up against mine.
You walk away from me.
I will never understand why. | |

Posted: 12/13/2005 12:06:50 PM | the main thing to do is to write in expressing words from your heart
keep those writes coming - and this thread alive in your words
So ya wanna be a poet?
so lets show it!
I may have composed over 90 of my poem things so far this month of December 2005
but we all had to start some where - once

Image of Her Soul
13 December 2005
A man can love a woman so far away
He can look at her in image
With these words to say
His eyes focused upon her steer
That sunlight reflected from her soul
She told him - his words were beautiful
He returned to her in knowing
She was beautiful in view
The poet - his heart - her poetry
Twice in exposure picture fixed
A force of admiration both
Lips touching in metaphor
This was why - love held no bounds
While barriers prevented touch
Of these words of poetic flavour to taste
What of love to this life
his to her - neither and either to waste

| Morning Kids:)(from my previous post)...Long phone call...I can talk for hours lol :)
Posted: 12/13/2005 3:40:56 PM | a sensous look, a wicked glance
mentally, im trying to get in your pants
a devilish smile , the wildest grin
youd think that i am living in sin
a stunning bod, long flowing hair
so much heat it's starting to flare
a sudden shake , i bit my lip
my hands are hovering above your hips
the kiss is hot , im starting to shake
our bodies entwined causing a shake
just when she's about to scream
i wake up , what a hell of a dream
DAM

Posted: 12/13/2005 4:45:30 PM | Now i lay myself to sleep
Protect me God from those who creep
With evil plots and wicked schemes
To snatch me from my peacefull dreams
I know theres bad things i have done
Thats why i'm sleeping with my gun
If i should be startled from my peacefull slumber
My gun will roar with blasts of thunder
Got to fight to live one more day
So many things to do
So words to say
Sick of being treated like a criminal
Sick of working like a slave
I gotta keep my head up
And keep looking over my shoulder
Cuz this crazy world keeps getting
Colder! | |
