To find what
we seek on the
road of life,
The best proverb
of all is that
which says,
“ Leave no stone
unturned,”

Rest in Peace, Sweet Angel

You went to your new home this morning,
you are still on everybody's mind.
When God selected all of the angels,
you were one of the best ones He could find.

I remember the times I visited you. .you
always made me feel welcome; like you
really wanted to see me.

Every time I see pictures of **** cats. .I will
always think of you.

Rest in peace, Sweet Angel,
you are with Jesus above.
We will always remember,
when we had your love.

*Three Blind Men*
Three blind men, see how they run, see how they care
They take what's left of me
and leave me standing there
Standing there all alone and holding
my broken heart in my hand
What am I to do
Do I put it back and hope for the best
or do I throw it away
and pray that the rain washes it
away

On a magic carpet I ride
Above a mystical land I sail
The laws of gravity defied
In my enchanted fairy tale

I observe the snowy mountain tops
Of an undiscovered land
In the fields farmers tend their crops
Appearing to me like grains of sand

No worries have I navigating the skies
As the clouds sail by in mystery
The wondrous sight that adorns my eyes
Are forever burned into my memory

All is still, on thermals I float
My imagination could give me no more
Sights which bring a lump to my throat
As my mind is filled with awe

And as the sunset, on horizon, I spy
I ascend into the dream
To get to the West I do try
Before my prison becomes a moonbeam

Then a different scene as I cruise the night
So perfect I could reach my star
And watching all those welcoming lights
My mind drifts away to afar

This solitude becomes my friend
No worries or foes have I
I lie back and my gaze does end
As I fall asleep to a lullaby

Here's a poem that I can't think of a title for. Any suggestions would be appreciated....

To live and let live they say
Well, this can be taken anyway
I live by that saying but it goes without saying
today's society keeps you in poverty or
keeps you wealthy
To struggle everyday like I do is taken
it's toll on me, is true.
And our mental health system and professional people suck
They sit in their fancy offices while I'm
knee deep in muck
Waiting for this and waiting for that
Is no wonder why I can be a
"BRAT"

The Yearning

How do I compete with your social life
I just want a bit of *TLC*
Not asking to be your wife
By nature it's not me to give up
I can be very persistant
Loyal you might say
But c'mon, why do I bother anymore
As I wait for you to walk
through my door.

the ice in needlepoint
cracking silver raindrops spreading
she sweetens the earth with a white lick
terrestrial breath carries the winged
where seasons die
her peaks are regal breasts of earth
unassaulted and nurtured by the sun
the golden-white mane kissing her gently
where men slide down to run

green ooze leaks skyward from the rocks
a giant be-heading
carnivorous thirst supplying the thrust within hypocracy
looking away, humans disintigrate into revolting dogs

Threads of pure gold
Lined the sunset sky.
Bright rose fades
Into clouds on high.

Deepest blue gives way
To green, to yellow gold,
Vivid red to rose,
To blue-rich and bold.

Swiftly fade the colours
As the sun sinks westerly,
The moon rises in the east,
Now each star winks easterly.

Another cycle has been completed,
Another day is done.
One more day fulfilled,
Another cycle begun
.

Here is one i wrote this morning...................

Chaotic Thought - -by Rene

Coyly walking through the abyss of my mind,
Regressing to the very first time,
I fell for a devastatingly beautiful smile,
Then too could only stand on the side,

I wonder if beauty clouds even the eye of the beholder?
Blatantly ignoring whats over your shoulder,
Allowing my heart to forever remain colder,
Learning silence is sometimes in order,

So used to lies confused by the truth,
Questions always unanswered, proof?
Look in my crystal ball, poof,
Darkest conclusion the only root.

Keep the great writes coming......later..............

I wrote this for someone very special last night.........

Just for her – by Rene

Sitting in the veil of night,
I am drawn into the moon light,
Spirit radiates with unfamiliarity,
A gem of this caliber such a rarity,
I look to see and I am right,
This woman so graceful and buoyant with life,
I wait as forbidden fruit dances,
Longing knowing she sees the glances,
One day it will pass,
The woman of my dream will be held fast in my grasp.

Enjoy...................

Honor? - by Rene

Sometimes I wish I could lie,
Just smile and saunter around,
Relinquish all the euphemisms,

Pretension now the standard,
Metaphorical motives embraced,
Engulfing the world as cancer,

Politics in all circles,
Equality a notion forgotten,
Along with rituals of the past,

Defiantly I wait,
One person to stand alone,
Fighting the numberless,

Belief is odd that way,
Justifying the reason to die,
Its only honorable, right?

*Shards of Me*

To let go of love's pain is hard to do
I know that is what needs to be done for
me to move on, for me to get through
But this sorrow just won't die no matter
how I try

I remember the look of wanting in his eyes
that use to be, him only wanting me
Oh! What a feeling of ecstasy
Now he's gone, I'm alone with my memories
and a slow burning ember of what
could be's

The way he abandoned me without a word
Four years later I was kicked to the curb
Not a goodbye, not a word spoken,
poof gone
left behind a heart broken

Shattered like the thrown crystal
against the wall
Is how I was left, alone to pick up the pieces
Some I can't find for they are missing
So I go through life with pieces
here and pieces of me there,
broken.

*Loneliness*

Loneliness can make a person go
crazy

I sought out friendship and
got none

What am I to do when I can't find
a friend that's true

I tried reaching out

Oh! but put out and
friends come out

I really like this tune and thought I'd share it... enjoy............

The Sleep - Pantera

Understanding what has
Happened before us
We are confined to a
Darkened hidden tomb
The conquering of our world
As we knew it
Rise above this pit
Of sorrow and pain
Among the few
We are the avant leaders
We've got to live
Through this trouble and decay

This question haunts my mind
Will we survive this night?
We're harboring the meek
Will we survive the sleep?

Unsure and scared
We are planning our reprise
Revolves around this world
We don't know anymore
The odds against us
Yet we're stronger and prevailing
Learn from mistakes
Counting souls for sale

This question haunts my mind
Will we survive this night?
We're harboring the meek
Will we survive the sleep?

Fresh new one for you to enjoy, hot off the mind......... enjoy................

Linger - by Rene

What will I do?
When it all falls on you,
The strength of myself,
No longer willing to help,

Delinquent in so many ways,
Ever increasing number of days,
Living to die, light from rays,
Counting the people, not knowing their names,

Soft spoken words that linger,
Like plucking the guitar with all but one finger,
Melodies and notes form and injure,
Shards of ice through frozen figures,

Faceless drones running the world,
Plans "classified" never to be bestowed,
On a populous never meant to know,
Living for dying the only goal.

This poem I just wrote today. Some of it ryhmes and some of it doesn't. Therefore don't know what to call it.....but here it goes just the same as a poet in the poetry game....

*The Mirror*

Life keeps reflecting back at me
and this makes me feel trapped

Keeping A positive attitude
I no longer know how to maintain

It's like I'm suppose to be reminded
of the mistakes I made

Maybe with hopes to learn from them
or to be punished

Pondering and pondering,
wondering why

This Burden is way to heavy
as self-pity eats away at me

Seeking relief, I once tried
Don't know if I could go there again,
the grim reaper and I

The mirror of life as I call it
gleams with distain at my plight
Watches me as I start to
loose the fight

Thinking to shatter it with my soul
absorbing the pieces like quick sand
till the blood starts to flow

Or should I turn the mirror around
and away from me
But then a coward I'd be.

Forever hold your piece and not say a word
for this can be a bird

A bird that flies high in the sky
with a tear in it's eye

A tear of hopes that washed away
many ago, yesterdays

Does this make sense or is it insane
or is just the way of the game

Call me not or call me true
but I am here to stay
and won't go away

I am still here waiting
watching the time pass us bye
I know the us was a bit shallow too often
and I'm not really sure why
but would happily try
to push this beached whale back into the open sea
see if it can swim again
or wash to shore for a final decree.

Time passes,
life happens,
distance separates,
children grow up,
jobs come and go,
love waxes and wanes,
men don’t call when they say they will,
hearts break,
parents die,
colleagues forget favours,
careers end.
but..
friends are there,
no matter how much time
and how many miles are between you
a friend is never farther away
then needing them can reach.
when you have to walk that lonesome valley
and you have to walk it by yourself,
your friend will be on the valley’s rim,
cheering you on,

pulling for you,
intervering on your behalf,
and waiting with open arms at the valley’s end.
sometimes,
they will break the rules and walk beside you,
or come in and carry you out.
the world wouldn’t be the same without them,
and neither would I.
when we began this adventure called life,
we had no idea of the incredible joys
or sorrows that lay ahead.
nor did we know how much
we would need each other
every day we need each other still.
pass this on to every friend who makes your life work.......
I just did.

Long time no type, anyhow here is one I wrote while away...... Enjoy

Day dream – by Rene

Woke from the greatest dream,
Never wanted a thing,
Loving and enjoying it all,

Enticed by the sirens call,
Remit and regress,
Forget all about the loneliness,

Caffeine and cannabis,
All the energy left,
Depressed and unforgiving,

Ache for a day,
When happiness comes,
Shift life into high gear,

The past a bitter reminder,
Focus always away from the point,
Mistakes necessary for all.

thank you all for your additions and comments, keep them coming......... later

New one for you to enjoy...............

Behold - by Rene

There's a game life plays,
Filled with notions of what is good,
Toyed with again,
Beauty to me misunderstood,

Carnate dolls of delicacy,
Playfully misleading at best,
Evasive and mysterious as can be,
Claiming, ” I'm not like the rest ”,

However proven at the turn style,
You've reached it, was it worthwhile?
What was a single path is now divided,
Memories of destiny's crash frequently I'm reminded.

later................
