Posted: 7/5/2009 4:22:03 AM | battles I've fought ,
be they won or lost
doing my time,
paying the cost
walk in the sunshine,
trudge through fog and frost
each day is a gift that i spend above ground
all choices are free when destiny's unbound
(sorry we- Next Poet; please look up^^^) | |

Posted: 7/5/2009 4:38:31 AM | but J, i like your last line much better than mine...
so i'm choosing to use yours if that's ok. :) 
all choices are free when destiny's unbound
whether living in the city or the country's surround
it's your life you live so don't let others push you underground
try always to be respectful for it all comes back around
how you be may be destiny or your will is free
yet we all must learn to take responbility
for everything in our lives, eventually,
and learn to live humbly, honestly and lovingly | |

Posted: 7/5/2009 7:20:52 AM | learn to live humbly, honestly and lovingly
seems lost to most of the privileged roaming free
accumulating piles of stuff they never use
while off handed the staff around they abuse
working to always be on top of the pile
their children bought with the latest styles
or passed on through courts and alimony
thinking that nothing in life is free | |

Posted: 7/5/2009 7:25:43 AM | thinking that nothing in life is free
yet how simple it can actually be
breathing in the freshest air
enjoying the moment without a care
while others live life like a rat in a race
without much soul, without much grace
so i sit here oh so quietly
go live your life just let me be | |

Posted: 7/5/2009 8:56:42 AM | go live your life just let me be
all that stife just ain't for me
I'd rather float in a stormy sea
than listen to those selfish pleas
I see you drop down to your knees
crying "why's it always me"
when all around is real disease
you can't see the forest for the trees | |

I can understand where you are now
a kind word is what you need
acceptance of a life you didn't ask for
but you are not as alone as you think
there are those who care
while you're on the brink
let them drive, while you think | |

scratch your head and sip a drink
look out the window and count the stars
if your lazy count green cars
try to figure what is real
what's fake and what's a steal
if plastic has enough appeal
if wood and paper are better deals | |

You’all sound like a selfish little kid.
Let’s just bring a more mature matter to this forum,
Let’s just be adults and doing so may bring a quorum.
Let’s drop our egos and childish rants for something more mature.
And I’ll get off my ego too, lets all be more demure.
I’ve read E. Tolle’s now famous book, an tho I try my best.
My ego’s fighting for the lead, it seems that I’m obsessed.
I’m doing better than my friend, who’s right and never wrong.
I see his plight that hides from him, tho he thinks he’s strong.
He tries to rule & dominate every minute detail.
It’s like someone has severed his hands and all he knows is braille. | |

Posted: 7/5/2009 1:58:21 PM | if wood and paper are better deals
they might be, but this means we must grow more trees
at least they will break down to nourish the earth
though sadly we've cut so many for their profit's worth
now plastic seemed to be just magic when it first appeared
but now we can see it's not set us free
for all the plastic will seriously last an eternity
so what will really help the survival of the planet and humanity? | |

its all the same from sugar cane to road rage
Just turn the page to another idea
Pick and choose your words
and actions carefully
Their outcomes determine our feelings
Sometimes tearfully
Its our reality | |

from a sea of ideas
tangled weeds of ideals
to riding on waves of ecstasy
our mutuality
vies for thoughtful fertility
in a storm fit for deep keels
paddle boats with futility | |

there are only two oars that know
the whole truth and neither
one of them is the you
who make assumptions
who has hope
who thinks
you know. | |

Posted: 7/7/2009 3:25:15 AM | who thinks you know
will become where we need to grow
when your mind and heart need shifting
when Spirit is calling for uplifting
when your body is just drifting
on the sea of mundane
when around and within is sounding profane
then perhaps we are all going insane | |

Posted: 7/7/2009 8:41:00 AM | then perhaps we are all going insane
when the boat has sailed down the drain
drinking rain from a curled up leaf
hoping the storm is only brief
the sun keeps shining above the clouds
its only noise if you think its too loud
as proud as you are of some things you did
the truth of the matter remains well hid | |

must learn to hedge his bets
he said to himself by and by
needing to cool his jets
placing all his chips on the girl in red
all or nothing his noble quest
thinking a win would land them in bed
but, no, not even a brush of her breast | |

no place for even his head to rest
so he planned to head way out west
until the sun finally sets
thru valleys and mountains he makes his way
he didn't have much of anything to say
started to live each and every day
no longer with any regrets | |

miles of smiles and harmless cigarettes
rain falling only on flower beds
in glorious display of purples and reds
no anguish nor woe nor prickly fear
now free from misfortune of life on a sphere
blues turning white, up's sprouting from downs
floating with poets and minstrels and clowns | |

travelling on a horse drawn carriage through towns
in a hand painted beautiful gypsy caravan
so moving art you'd see as they drove through the land
for this poetic troupe full of energy
were living carefree and sharing creativity
'cuz that's how they chose to be

quixotic dreams and windmills line the hills
beginning journeys a brand new story
a hand to hold her lips to kiss he always will
came rushing in old feelings cover
the pains of drifting in and out of ills
but written in his heart newly discovered
a hand to hold her heart to keep he'll always fill | |

her cup half full or twice as much as such
in love is due the lover;
and she'll sing his praises always
in the morning when he kisses sweet
and through the darkness his lips cover
and so where goes the young lad's thoughts
to see the lady, cherished, caught | |

His shoulders stand back
His head straight and tall
A raise of his wrist
The offer of a dance
Her eyes like diamonds
Filled with glittering glee
Hand in hand, two hearts collide | |

each having the other for stability
safe and secure feelings
can't we stay here a while?
Let the world slide past us ....
finding joy in what we see
isn't it enough ... to have found each other?
Off you go, searching for more than love. | |
