| SMILE A LITTLE SMILE
Posted: 5/5/2007 9:41:28 AM | SMILE A LITTLE SMILE
Smile a little smile,
go the extra mile,
Touch a friendly heart,
when you're miles apart.
Let your day begin,
with just a little grin,
then stretch it through
A smile or two.
The next thing you know,
your spirits will grow,
like birds of a feather,
when you smile together.
Thanks for your cute poem Casheyes....good to see you drop by. | |

Posted: 5/5/2007 10:09:19 AM | Smile a little smile
dream a little dream
stand on this mountain top
be the wind with me....
When the night falls,
let the moon whisper it's secrets of the dark,
in the dark...awaiting a new dawn....
Dance with me....
dance in the the rain
knowing the only shelter you need
is me...holding you in my heart...
He paints us a rainbow
after the rain,
just to remind us the spirit never forgets...
to remind us ...nor should we...
Together,
dancing with our hearts...........embraced as one..... | |

Together,
Dancing with our hearts,
Embraced as one,
Miles apart.
Four eyes,
Locked with one sight,
Dancing long,
into the night.
Two hearts,
spirit blended quest,
bodies floating,
Astral guest. | |

Posted: 5/5/2007 3:10:20 PM | Hiya Mandrake,
Nice thread you have going here!!!
Hope all is well!!!
Warm rain drips slowly off the pine branches
The heavy boughs bend slightly
A rich aroma floats within the air
Sweetness as I breath in lightly
Sunlight breaks through the lifting clouds
Double rainbows begin to appear
One forming right above the other
The end of the storm is finally near…..
Sam

Posted: 5/5/2007 3:51:54 PM | Tonight I just want to relax
take a shower, kick back
watch some TV, kinda
movies on CD, via the USPS
Hot tea in one hand,
soft lap blanket over my legs
feet curled under me
maybe some popcorn or a beer
the couch is pretty big
anyone want to join me? | |
|
| MOVE OVER
Posted: 5/5/2007 4:07:31 PM | MOVE OVER
You have your tea,
hot chocolate for me,
put up your feet,
Now that is quite neat.
Popcorn and natchos,
A movie or two,
helps one relax,
and not feel blue.
Let's have a shower,
then relax with the telly
just lie on the couch,
and I'll rub your belly!  | |

Posted: 5/5/2007 4:32:49 PM | Strawberry bubble bath was the scent
to my senses it was sent
hot soaking release to my body was leant
luxurious bubbles engulfed me
candlelight flickers for me to see
such relaxation was heavenly
now I agree my couch I shall take
popcorn to I will make
watch a movie, let my mind bake
night comes to just find peace
struggles of day we release
to my bed later I will find with ease................ | |

| PARABLE
Posted: 5/6/2007 7:25:41 AM | PARABLE
Wandering, aimless and distracted,
Through mountains and wilderness green,
Endless paths of my impatience growing,
Come to rest at the edge of the ravine.
Here I lay my head, but for a while,
Calm the soul, adrift to dream,
The folly of the idle flies,
Follow not the silent scream. | |
|
| PARABLE The Silent Scream
Posted: 5/6/2007 7:51:22 AM | THE SILENT SCREAM
I came upon a clearing,
and here, I met the gathering horde,
The beggars, the cripples,
the blind man with his sword.
It is here, the lesser find
A tongue for the Silent Scream,
This place of undesirables,
Ahhh, this place, they are free to dream! | |
|
| PARABLE On The Virtuous!
Posted: 5/6/2007 8:50:20 AM | ON THE VIRTUOUS
Ahhh, but those of virtue,
Who stand before the virtuous claim,
To be risen up before their kind,
By virtue, this is their fame.
Go now, you disciples of virtue,
Quench your insatiable thirst,
For jewels and yellow lustre,
Till your soul is ready to burst!
To those of the Golden Serpent,
You virtuous seekers of fame,
Hear not of what you speak,
Your soul is one of shame. | |

| MANDRAKES house by the fire...for all to share
Posted: 5/6/2007 8:30:55 PM | Cruel intentions of self destruction
It’s all she knows
Life lived through all those she loves
Someday she’ll have the courage to change
Hell created by her own admissions
She’s supposed to be perfect …
in the eyes of others and the eyes in the mirror
Yet she hates those expectations
Why can’t she be her own girl
Someday she’ll live her own life
She wants to scream …
… but there’s no sound
no sound
She looks in the mirror and cries
She can’t even see herself
Lost, broken, pieces scattered
She looks in the eyes of others
But there’s no comfort
… the pieces don’t fit
A little here, a little there
She’s given herself away …. Unknowingly
Now she kills herself …
…. To find herself
And she can’t even see what’s there
She cries, but there are no tears
The river is dry …
And so is she
She’s so scared …
Will she ever be herself
Will she ever have the faith …
And the courage to change
Or will she forever remain
…. A prisoner
Of herself, her parents, her children
Will she ever know … will she ever know
She tries … she cries … the fear is strong
So she takes it away
Self destruction
Self inflicted
PAIN
She rips her heart, her world, her everything
For that’s all she knows
She asks why, but it’s always the same
Be your own …. Be your own
Yet she doesn’t know how
And she’s so scared to try
If I’m breathing …. Just love me
If I’m not … bless me
For I am where I need to be
>^..^<. | |

My grandaughter in tow,
Her hair with a bow.
With a smile so sly,

| Congratulations: Grand papa "gateau"
Posted: 5/7/2007 12:07:02 PM | Just want to dance
on the moon
Or run barefooted
in the dunes
Fears and regrets
washed away
My heart all shiny
and true
My path is smooth
All this love
just being borned
All this warmth pouring
from you
Makes me feel like
flapping my wings
I am an autumn piano
Just want to play
And sing
Together in harmony
be my forever
spring | |

| Congratulations: Grand papa gateau
Posted: 5/7/2007 12:57:02 PM | Thank you Wicked and Marie! I appreciate your comments and contributions
It feels strange, to say the least,
Her miscarriage happened Nov. 11th,
Rememberance Day,
and I might say,
her due date
is the second week of November! | |

I take great pride in doing my part,
They are the essence of my heart.
Thanks for the prayers Cyn...I appreciate them. | |
