just a poem...Page 1 of 31    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
Immutably, unutterably, my heart entwined with yours.

All the years and all the differences, walking away... endures.

Not here but here still, forever in my heart,

all the tears and all the fears are mirrored in our paths,

nowhere near yet nowhere far, forever in my heart.

A whole, a one, separate lives yet souls entwined as one.

Drifting thoughts, idle minds .. take us there to roam,

for all the years and all the tears our souls entwined as one.

Our paths have crossed, words not needed... the one that makes me completed.

I am a whole, fully complete, I come to you as one,

Our souls singing in the distance, gently whispering in the sun,

I feel you here, you feel me there, dancing blazes of glory

A long time, different people, souls entwined as one.

We are different yet still the same, lives full of story...

Immutably, unutterably my heart entwined with yours.

Still the same,
funny as hell,
laughing here out of my shell,
thoughts the same,
our minds as one,
past been seen,
day has done.
The future hasn't got you in it,
never mind, you really did win it :)

I saw the truth and saw his face,
my heart for you has still a space,
not quite the same,
better still,
feelings deepened,
weirdly weakened.

Our paths unwind,
our tale ends,
with you now in the friend zone well :)

Creasing up at the past we spent,
seriously glad, that there we went,
no regrets and no pain,
forgive me now,
our day won't reign.

Lovely. Just lovely.

The metre gets a little confused here and there, but the opening couplet grabbed me and almost wrung water from my eyes.

Nice work.

Thank you - comments welcomed and agreed with... the rough edges are caused by myself not editing them at all after i've written them.
Don't know why I never edit but it doesn't feel quite natural to do so :)

stuck in the shed,
typing these notes,
endless arguments,
analysis and quotes,
Fodor, Pinker, Chomsky - old goats.

I'd rather be running around in a bog,
looking at gremlins,demons and frogs,
these words are funny,
and yet it's true,
they've made their money,
so quit whining you.

get on with the study,
and write it down,
the future isn't orange or purple you clown.

Study can be rubbish, we all know it's true,
get with the analysis,
get writing you.

Graceful wings in Wind
Butterfly gliding over
The rushing Waters

Be one with Nature
To attract bunnie rabbit
Act like a carrot

welcome to insanity,
my world is full of madness see :) ,
monday blues,
can't find my shoes,
seriously... where's my muse?

I've written about 200 words,
of rubbish that my tutor heard,
raining, pouring - always boring,
arrrgggh studying this...
is like a ship filled with dip,

random as a jelly plane,
Chomsky, you're the biggest pain,
U turn of knowledge,
just pass the porridge,
and I may finish with half my brain.

A veil is lifted
As Waves over Water
Ways of Wind reveal

{Thx running water. I would also appreciate anyone's edits or suggestions; especially counting syllabels.
Ex: Is 'Waves' 1 or 2 ?

A Veil is lifted
As Waves over calm Water
Reveal the Wind's Ways

jest sounds more Fu'ng Shui to me.

been enjoying your poems, running water
I too rarely edit, in truth, just don't bother :)
(villanelles excepted, ha)

in answer to he who Sophia seeks
having syllabic differences vs how he speaks
I feel your pain with my NY slur
using fingers to count in a haiku blur
I'm hearing pome, surely not po-em
and the dictionary's such a heavy tome
while google might seem to fit the bill
howmanysyllables.com looks quicker still

Thx Andover, so 'waves' are only 1 syllable~~~ and I learned Haiku should Not Rhyme.

Read or write Haiku

Head here but still in bed,

Thanks for the welcome everyone - some nice people around :)

Emoticons are cute,

jealous here of those,

I really am a random poet,
the problem is that I truly do know it,
my poems rhyme,
lets do the crime,
taking that car and travelling far,
itchy feet,
stupid, sweeeet.
A forest on the plains of Ra?
I didn't think a car could go far.
while you lay you down to sleep,
beware the gremlins don't munch your feet :P

The beat of a poem runs through my head,
writing and twisting, a story, a thread.
A poem is not just something to read,
it's music and grace, the flight of a bee.

All around me in the sky,
the beat of a rhythm pulling me high.

Waking in morning,the poem of spring,
catching the rainclouds is really my thing.

Watching you wake with a yawn on your face,
makes me consider this time in our space.
Sleepy stretch gives out a sigh,
face is crumpled with sleep in your eye.

This poem has beat and meaning it's true,
this world makes us pay more than our due.
With beat in a heart and the glory of song,
there's nothing here that can make me feel wrong.


The beat of a rhythm,
the world at my fingers,
writing this poem is a gift said the heavens.

The world at my fingers,
the cat on my knee,
the flight of a ladybird whistling on a leaf.
The story of sunrise and the sunset at dawn,
every day brings a shiny new moon.

The ocean of rainbows,
the season of now,
listening to reason and rhyme and somehow.

The cat on my foot and the smile on my face,
chatting to you brings it there with full grace.
Perched on the step listening to birds,
singing a song like they'll always be heard.

Ants running past collecting their bounty,
makes me feel hungry for the sight of the mountains.

Listening to the spirit of a gentle flowing stream
Reveals the meaning of an unforgotten dream
Like music tells the story a singer sings so well
Written words release when read a truth to tell

Your poems make me smile for true,
humour injected into every one you do.
Chopstix and cats with musical bats,
I laugh a smile and think something new :)

There is this still sinking feeling,
thoughts of you they send me reeling.
It doesn't matter and yet it does,
we should have spent that time instead..
I should have told you how I felt,
and cradled your thoughts as you slept.

This time is never made for us,
i'm sorry though... was such a mouse.
Shy and retiring,
not really admiring, the way I was back then.

You were seriously just as bad,
thinking things you never said.
I walked away, why didn't I stay..
thoughts of hurting.. too much in my head.

Randoms and rainbows and pieces of string,
mermaids and seabreeze and vases of Ming.

Pirates and fishwives and mermaids afar,
these are some things that play in my heart.
The music of seaweed, hang-gliders too,
things that sparkle in the visions anew.
Playing and dancing and twisting this thread,
storyweaving a poem is always ahead.

Messing with the paddling pool,
sparkling in the sun,
Dance with me here now, this story has begun.

Jelly fish and snowcones and pirates ahah,
waving a flag for seeing so far.
Splishing and splashing and laughing with glee,
listen to the rhythm and dance this with me.

Twisting and turning and falling on grass,
pulling and pushing and playing with laugh.
Darting up mountains and walking on air,
dance this with me without any care.
Loosen your hair and listen with me,
only really then can you truly be free.

Listen to the rhythm and dance this with me,
swinging from the vines, facefirst in a tree.
Dancing on clouds and drifting on dreams,
life is all and nothing it seems.

Birds soaring past high in the air,
plane goes so fast that you hardly will dare.
Sinking into carpet with little bare feet,
grabbing hold of life is seriously sweet.

The ancients of mountains and the youth of the sand,
cattle in fields, a farmer, a brand.

Looking around you should hardly be wrong,
so how could others not hear this here song...

A drummer drumming in my head,
a beat that surely others heard,
maybe not but then that's weird,
a musican, singer without a beard.

Drummer drumming in my head,
beating beating, never said.
Rhythm felt so truly here,
wonder that only ancients sometimes hear.

Streams and dreams have always heard,
the secret whisper of a bird,
the silent kiss of a snowflake,
crickets listening, throughout the years.

Mountains and rivers have always said,
things that most will not stop to learn.
Drummer drumming in my head,
this beat will never ever ebb.

Mosquito bites and coconut ice,
falling into dancing.
Rhythm pulls me to my feet,
laughing, singing prancing.

Slamming our feet into the beat
forgetting ourselves with only the heat,
keeping us here with dancing.
