| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 9/16/2005 3:54:27 AM | Okay one more sad one and I will try for happy
You should know better Why don’t you? Do you always need to be shown?
There are those that are worthy Born to be loved You were never born to be that
I try to show you over and over You seem mute to it How can you not see it for what it is?
You are not worthy and it’s not your place You are the stepping stone The gap between sad and happy
I am tired of showing you You need to stop When will you learn and understand
Be what you were born to Second best if that Find peace in your station
Find peace stepping stone | |

Help yourself. Feel free to nibble on anything I have, anytime.
The Explorer
The warm inlet whispers a sweet welcome to the passing explorer. There, he lingers, gently probing its silken shores, gazing at the stars above, splashing in the river's mouth. Within him, growing excitement and anticipation for the journey South.
Strolling to the cliff's edge, he gazes at the beauty that lies beyond. Carefully, he lowers himself towards that, to which he's drawn. The explorer meanders along the graceful and delicate bridge below, soaking in all its charm, continuing towards his ultimate goal.
On the other side, so much to explore, the adventure escalates. He travels west, along a narrow trail, his final destination must wait. Not wanting to miss a thing, he takes everything in, like a feast. He makes his way back, then does the same along a trail heading east.
After this, the explorer heads, south into a glorious mountain scene, He traverses each one up to its peak, then travels the valley between. He roams wildly across the plain below, investigating the entire space, Then he comes, face to face, to his favorite treasured place.
But, the explorer chooses, to extend his, growing anticipation, He passes on by, ever so close, to that treasured destination. He continues along, slow as can be, adding a leg to his trip, When he returns, he adds one more, before exploring that final strip.
At the entrance to the treasure trove, he still doesn't advance. He takes his time, waiting for a sign, circling a local protuberance, A shake, a shiver, a quake, a quiver, the sign he was waiting for, The explorer is ready, takes a deep breath, and enters the place he adores.
Ummmm, that one's about...ummm...hiking...yeah, that's it...hiking.
Peace  | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 9/16/2005 2:32:54 PM | Not Forever Again I can't believe you just said that I'll take today right now and rejoice trust me forever isn't all that
no not forever again if you insist then walk on by I've learned forever isn't all that long so I'll take today and smile
no not forever again you just don't know what you say forever means until you grow tired then you'll go your separate way
no not forever again although you probably mean well I only want this moment in time as for tomorrow who can tell
no not forever again I will not bank on the morrow I'll take the present's laughter and joy you can have forever's sorrow | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 9/16/2005 2:35:29 PM | I had a dream last night and dreams are visits to me By truth and ever elusive clarity A pilgrim I on a quest into the land of reason Tired and weary ever betrayed by the treason Of this world Seeking my origin lover of my soul was the center of my quest I happened upon a queer old man whose words test All worldy thoughts and mores Why seek what you have he implored mockingly A waste of shoe leather your trip surely is Standing his azure eyes penetrated my soul and all breath was stolen from me and talked As in riddles that only sages Such as he have pondered for ages To be finitely infinite is troublesome at best To feel time wind down, to need to rest Wears creation to submission and Betrayal in the end To be selfishly compassionate introduces confusion Good acts for others merely an illusion For the world is always watching and creation Loves it's limelight for whatever reason And mortal immortality puts blinders on so That we are ruined by building security No fortress can stand against His lessons and plan Not for very long at least. He sent me along home with comfort and peace Stating that we all we seek lies within Its apparency betrays its location and it won't be Hidden by hobbies and vocation. n his final words with a smile he added with gravity There are those who seek their own with truth, ignore them And their depravity, for they mean well, but miss the mark And remain enlightened in the dark. | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 9/16/2005 2:36:57 PM | When scorned by one who pledged eternally true just love.... Lick your wounds, cry your tears but just love...
When confronted by hate remember tis fear and just love.. stand firm and just love....
It is hard to do, but worth it so and less hard on your frail frame. Hate consumes and love spreads, just love.
Thank your creator for making tough cheeks so to present to those that fear just love. | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 9/16/2005 2:46:49 PM | Me on my high horse you on yours no wonder all me manage to start is war
I want this and you want that we can speak so well in listening we fall flat
I want you to be... you want the old me... we've both lost sight of ourselves in reality
What if I focus on me being and you focus on you being perhaps then we can alter this presently perceived reality? | |

| So ya wanna be a poet? Posted: 9/17/2005 2:24:14 AM | Never Feel Alone Again
As sure as the rocks are met by both life's calm or stormy seas, Here I stand fast for you as a reminder of His eternal presence, A place to cling to in times of peril, A source of a shelter in times of needed rest, To offer you guidance when you are at a loss for direction, But mostly to act as his proof that no matter where, how, or who you are, That you are truly never alone.
When strife tears at you like a lion devouring its prey, He binds your wounds gently with the soothing words of his promise, A gentle reminder of his loving touch, A kind reflection in a world of distorted windows, To give you peace in times of turmoil and hatred, But mostly to help you walk quietly and safely, from where you came, to where you stand, to where he wants you to go. For you go it not by yourself.
When sleep evades you like a hand grasping to clench the morning fog rolling in from the sea, He gives you lasting comfort that pacifies even the most tormented soul, A taste of what your future brings, A continuous gift that you can both keep and give away freely, To help bring light to those traveling through a darkened passage, But mostly to ensure that if you remember to look for that light, to live and give in the light, and to grow in the light, The light will never go out.
It is in total darkness that we feel and act, that we are alone. | |

| So ya wanna be a poet?Thanks guys^^^^^ Posted: 9/17/2005 2:43:30 PM | Why do we rip apart the very ones we've pledge our heart to, when they decide its time to go and see beyond the horizon? And in that bitter sweet moment of depart our heart grows stony and cold toward the one whom seconds ago made us live and love crazy and bold.
we wail and cry they just don't love us and never did, and everything was a lie, never seeing the irony in our actions of wanting to hold down love and not let the beloved fly. Perhaps just maybe, all we say about lost love and the person who did us wrong is mere confession of our own lacks and shortfalls, areas we need to grow.
For love is love, it just is, and never wants or seeks its own. When a lover departs, picks up and flights, rejoice in the time shared, not mourn what has gone. | |
