It was OK to say she was cute and worship from “afar” This woman of Ohio in her perpetually on par
Everlasting for all time this friendship in rays from the sun To love her because she was but one
A woman of disaster made good this woman of heaven and faith Just to be alongside her like a cat pretending to be a dog in a race
That “escaping beauty” hers to give her internality all to desire Even with men of helmets protected wise in their ways of calling - “fire – fire”
“We three kings of Orient are; Bearing gifts we traverse afar, Field and fountain, moor and mountain, Following yonder star.” Words & Music: John H. Hopkins Jr, Hopkins wrote this carol for a Christmas pageant at the General Theological Seminary in New York City. 1857 Born: October 28, 1820, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

“Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.” Matthew 2: 1-2 KJV

| last one for the night Posted: 12/29/2005 8:32:44 PM | i really should pu titles to these lol ah well
Looking for puzzles that can not be solved Every time I stumble across one I regret I got involved To you it is just a game To me it is all pain With all I see I can not describe But it tares me up inside With lack of compassion It is easy to lose faith Where can I put my trust If you are always so filled with hate Look from with in for the strength to begin And the healing will be there my friend Face your own mortality and move on What I feel inside I can not describe Caught in the land slide known as my life Taking my time to get things right Taking back what is rightfully mine Searching threw the ashes of my mind Recognize my space and time Drifting slow like a stream Feeling your warm thoughts come comfort me What is left for me to tell Welcome to my personal hell As I prepare to break your shell On the other side what do I see The way life was meant to be | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 12/31/2005 8:27:08 AM | riverwild2, beautiful poem... in fact, do you mind if I quote it sometime if I include your name and such?
bonefunny, the poem that started with, "I keep moving on"... goooood stuff... caused me to remember a certain evil ex-boyfriend of mine, but that's okay
Happy new year, everyone | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 12/31/2005 12:19:07 PM | YAY my poems bring back hurtfull memories for people lol hopefully this one dosn't...
you took out my favorite part
now i just lie here in the wind
spit out the truth and let the real story begin
you took it this to far
you took this to a level it wasn't meant to go
so lie in the bed you made and reap what you sow
do you love your self you have a funny way of showing it
depressed all the time over things that shouldn't be
im not dead and im not for sale
but i sure can tell a tale
ill tell the story untold its about the everything you didn't know
its hard to have a bleeding heart when you are the one strung out on the cross
but i guess that's the price you pay for acting this way
don't lash out at me i wasn't the one that set you free
truth be told id put you in chains throw away the key and leave you that way
sometimes it hard to hold on one more slip and ill be gone
so take a deep breath and make it so
is as deep as our conversation goes | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 12/31/2005 12:57:08 PM | alone again naturally
i'm here with my children's children giving my children time out, but i feel a little lonely and time is passing by
i don't want sympathy i just need to know will i have that special someone to make my garden grow
to wake in the morning see love before my eyes hear him whisper i love you i would be in paradise

WORDS When you caress me with your words they are like gentle tickles on my soul tiny scratches and indelible marks claiming a part of me no one else will ever own I tremble from the anticipation of your words anxiously awaiting the things you'll say the knowledge that you'll share and the love you'll passionately express My mind is constantly challenged to find my own words to express to you my multitude of feelings, my thoughts, my learnings and my yearnings Often words are limiting & inadequate to express how much you make me feel, what you cause me to anticipate and the immense love I already have for you Some people fear words & other's use them as weapons You use words to lure me down your path to take me on a wonderful journey to make precious memories we'll forever share Your words are honest in their intent allowing me to have complete trust that they'll never wound me, never mislead me and never cause me to question my belief in myself Your words allow me to feel so much... the hand of God in my life the joy of a new and exciting relationship and the loving caress of your gentle soul ============== | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 12/31/2005 1:18:30 PM | aaaaww luuuv2laaaf you moved me with your words.mine were but short and from the bottom of my swinging brick lol, inspiration is a wonderful thing. have a wonderful new year...love diva.  | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 1/1/2006 2:51:04 AM | | As a publshed poet, lyricist, and writer who makes a six-figure income as Associate Publisher for a national magazine, here are my words of wisdom for would-be poets. First of all, don't ever write about sex, love, heartbreak or any other relationship oriented subject, or at least don't ever subject the general public to your drivel. Its all been said before and said far more eloquently than you ever could dream of. Second of all, read William Burroughs, all you can get your hands on. He is the one and only true poet who ever lived and you can never be him, but you can at least realize how much you suck compared to him. Third, just put down the pen and do something constructive with your time. Poetry is for broken down losers. Get a life suckers! | |

Without the trials there are no poems Without the dreams there are no points of view
Without mistakes there is no God Because without God there is no one
Without love we have no heroes Without people we have no friends
So can we do without His love No we need not ever be without Him
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Hebrews 11: 1, 3, 6 KJV

If Poetry is, as you say, "for broken down Losers," then I guess you're a broken down loser since you claim to be a published poet.
"Get a life sucker?" Guess you don't have much of one if all ya got to do is post on Poetry sites and give negative advice. Why are ya reading the stuff written here if no one but William Burroughs is worth reading. Stick to reading Mr. Burroughs & keep your "words of wisdom" about "drivel" that's written here to yourself.
Just cuz you write for a Sports Publication, that doesn't make you an expert on everything written. It would be preferable if you kept your negativity to yourself, but that is just my opinion.
Have a Happy New Year | |
