There was a POF member
who thought they were a poet
they mocked others imperfections
A holier than thou attitude...don't you know it!
But, along came a novice
her words honest & true
knocked out old better than
into the sky so blue.
Words are to be spoken
however you write them down
no one is perfect, no writings are wrong
MOral of this rhyme is everyone's a poet
Some better than others,
but it's in the heart where you
honestly know it.

Posted: 11/23/2006 10:22:43 AM | a dream that i have every night,
and wish it would come true alright,
is to train with spurs
and be in goal,
the thought just warms my very soul.
id save shots from archibald,hoddle and crooks
although i know id get some looks,
id dive and grovel in the mud
but it would be worth every single thud.
but although i wake up all excited
im still only goalkeeper for southdown united.
hows that!! | |

Posted: 11/23/2006 10:24:19 AM | I guess you must have forgot,
I’m here waiting for you...
Why do I care when your not,
Loving me no more, your making me blue.
I need to get outta this rut,
that you caused me to be in.
Cause I know in my gut,
Your not what I was meant to win...
You did show me a passion,
I thought was dead inside of me.
You I haven't won,
But you set the desire in me free.
I'll never forget you now that I know,
Your out there in the world.
But I need not wait for you to show,
That my spirit could be twirled. | |

Posted: 11/23/2006 10:30:39 AM | Who are you to judge me
and tell me I'm not right
what you believe in is all yours
it's who you are and what you write.
My words may not be fancy
or twisted into meaningful phrases
but they come from my heart
and as does yours
of me they are a part.
Sometimes I make no sense,
there's no rhyme, no reason
Yet once these words are written
the understanding is there
of where I am coming from...
I talk of my fears,
my hopes,
my dreams
I write for me and not
someone else's damn expectations.
I see others words,
some I don't understand
but if it makes them feel good
who am I to judge as the upperhand?
Give me a break
my thoughts and words are real
I say what I want
what I feel. | |

Posted: 11/23/2006 10:38:16 AM | That's your Opinion
You mess with my serenity
Tell me what I feel
is not right
Thats your opinion.
Who are you to come into my world
and try to rock it w/your way of life.
I am on a journey,
have been there long before you
your just a stumblin' block
stirring up trouble
thinkin' your better than me.
Got news for you~~~
That's just your opinon.
I am who I am
and more of who I am becoming
Take it or leave it
Don't rock my world.
It's sad really
that you can't see beyond
your ego and expectations
of what others should be.
Enjoy your lonely life
Good luck on your finding
that perfection.
Stay outta my world
Cuz I'm in the middle of
a spiritual creation.
Don't rock my world
Stay away from me
Thanks for your opinion
Now just let me be me!!!! | |

Posted: 11/24/2006 5:43:11 AM | Does being grounded mean
keeping the feelings at bay?
Does it mean that I
can't think about you
and how it all seems?
Think about seeing you again,
yet another day.
Wanting to share
my ups and downs
Listen to your wisdom
your hopes and dreams
Think about your touch
our bodies intertwined
remembering your sweet kisses
wanting to know
all there is to find.
Stay grounded,
don't lead myself astray.
but as each day passes
another piece of me
heads your way.
as much as I fight it,
date others to forget,
their faults appear quickly
their existance I omit.
And then I think of you & me
how our conversations flow
so freely.
The closeness we have,
that gift of awareness,
all are so new to me.
How when your in another room
I can still feel your presence
feel good knowing
that it's just you and I
and I am right where
I'm supposed to be.
Stay grounded you say,
try as I might,
thoughts of you
just won't go away.
I turn us over to a Creator
greater than me
only to turn around
and it's you I see.
I'm letting go,
trying real hard,
but the more I push away
the closer you are.
Twisted up inside
Grounded from a far
Scared to run,
the feelings I must hide.
Not knowing what to say
without scaring you off.
Stay grounded.
Don't focus on you.
Must focus on me.
Dammit baby,
it's impossible not to see.
these feelings I have
grow stronger each day
I'm finding it harder and harder
to keep my emotions at bay.
I miss you
and all that you are
the togetherness we have
is ours alone
Keep it grounded you say,
I'm trying baby, but
it's your love I seek. | |

Posted: 11/24/2006 5:47:56 AM | INSANITY
Insanity.
Twisting, turning mind.
Crazy thoughts.
Sad....Angry....Hurt.
Feelings of hopelessness.
Nothing inside.
Pain within.
Beyond belief.
Seeking existance.
Unconditional love.
Acceptance.
Yearning to feel.
Wanting.
Memories.
Desire.
Ache for someone's touch.
That certain someone.
He barely knows your
Existance.
Is that all there is?
Insanity. | |

Posted: 11/24/2006 5:52:52 AM | As I read, it was clear,that someone said some things not so dear.
It upset you, because you thought your words were sweet as honey to a bee.
Bees have their own hive because they have their own way.
They only allow their kind, are skare them off, or die.
Lucky for you there is many bee hives in the woods, plus you can always start a new one.
So sing like a bee thats found the biggest best flower in the woods, and share it if others who want some to.
For the world is big enough, and no matter where you are. There is always room for everything. So buzz your heart out each and every day. | |

Posted: 11/24/2006 6:08:32 AM | Hi...
Some Words of Wisdom to ponder & strive for, when writing...
Account for the vileness enacted by the men and women of this (and any) century;
Be the lost child in the forest, making as much noise as you can to attract attention;
You are the Prophet, and the descendant of prophets;
Have a strong sense of self, and know your life has meaning;
Expect to lose a limb or two;
Be irritant to the repressed, the fearful, the self-satisfied, the incurious, the brainwashed majority;
See the world afresh and steadily from your own angle;
Always be suspect of conformity;
Be critical of man's inherent viciousness, filth and folly;
Be joyful in the creative process, never shying away from praise;
Understand that chaos and disorder are natural and beautiful;
One man's gutter is another man's home;
Cherish the loss of everything around you at the inception of a work, and don't stop until the song is over;
What you do is a blessing and a curse;
Speed first; decipher second; composition third;
Embody your ideas in a rhythmic pattern of visual images - make the words dance;
Communicate honestly, simply, sincerely;
Be continuously open to new experiences - do not settle for being merely an observer;
Take your images, your symbols, out for a stroll - the river, or perhaps, the marketplace;
Dance on the tightrope; do not walk carefully;
Bring water - they will need it for your Alka-seltzer realities!!! | |

Posted: 11/24/2006 6:28:19 AM | | Well, words are sometimes like people - you can see the sweetest, most beautiful, most precious poem, and there will always be someone out there who cannot stand its guts. We all come across folks who just rub us the wrong way for no real or apparent reason... | |

Posted: 11/25/2006 8:19:47 AM | thank you all for your finely woven words hopefulhun, om, sthrnbttrfly; such strong
and divergently unique writes! (msg 173 7 0f 9 pages) isn't even close to what's
stated in the original post. if i have somehow missed anyone acting unkind i surely would hope it would have been brought to any mod's or my attention to contact a mod directly.
how beautifully written the prose you left herein to touch the very dear heart of one of my dearest friends; thank you so very much for that; you know not how much of an impact your writing here left on someone's heart; thank you. actually wasmeant for you sthrnbttrfly; i was completely remiss in posting your name! i'm very hurt and saddened too by anyone inferring such occured in any thread begun by me by it's name.
i wish you very well in your thread, you have a strongly unique and very beautiful style of writing your feelings and prose very eloquently. please anytime feel free to contact a mod or Op of any thread you feel has wronged you in any way. but most importantly, never let anyone tell you differently about your writing, it has depth, is an expression of your very self; and it sings.
i must be somehow blind
i must have lost my sight
though i search n search
i cannot find where anyone
has attacked any other
or said anything untoward
in the novice thread
try as how i wrack my head
i am saddened deeply so
i feel violation behind curtains
subterfuge
unsure
as to the how the why
finger points in my direction
with something i neither
understand nor can even see
i too have tried to contact you
to let you know
who's heart you've touched
with your woven tapestry of words
tucked inside the novice thread
but to no avail as i've been blocked
a poet strong was somehow hurt
by another's unseen words
flames wrought invisibly it seems
electronic words sometimes
are misconstrued it's true
from from this novice's eyes
now i feel hurt are more than two

Posted: 11/25/2006 9:11:59 AM | Hi Soft...
it was the still a rookie and proud of it title that just really thru me off...maybe I was pmsing that day who knows....actually I really thank all of you for opening my eyes and reopening my heart to the prose I used to rite and what I am writing now....you, OM, and so many others write so intense and off the top of your head....LOL I am not good at that, but I am carrying a notebook around and writing again and for that I am soooo grateful.... and I unblocked some stuff as alot of UK and Canadians are wanting to keep in touch w/me as well...friendship is always so wonderful to have.....
Sorry if I hurt your feelings...it was not intentional...and there is one other person who tends to follow behind my writings in first line, last line and those little poetry games and get nasty about me or my writings...to which why I don't understand...so Soft, this wasnt against you....just my little feelings got hurt and now I am over it and back with a vengance!!! | |

Posted: 11/25/2006 10:21:47 AM | stumbling
fumbling
stomping on threads
makes
me
feel like running to beds
anger at some
directed at the wrong source
to find a place here
out of spite?
i have played poetry games
first line, 3 word simpletons
i've been insulted
i've insulted
ok let's get real here
when i see...
The ubiquitous dark sky illuminated my horror
candy, canes, small little men in suits
happy, happy, joy, joy
first line real, second and third sugar coated
hey... let's write a poem, wait until someone posts
do a little copy paste and were off to poetry school...
NO inference to anyone's style
i once was caught in some heavy emotions, i ran to the 3 word poetry game and followed along... something struck me in my heart to place a line in the... my heart told me 4 words... my hands followed... the next line in the thread read... WELL THATS CLOSE TO THREE WORDS... see rules are bullsh!t in poetry... there are NO novices... so i don't play where i'm not welcome...and yes... i don't like the guy!
and butterfly... not calling you out... but softE could be a good one to have on your side

Posted: 11/25/2006 11:50:29 AM | Life's Journey
I've navigated oceans of love,
And got hurt along the way,
But I picked up the broken pieces,
On continued on the day.
I've walked on through the winds of lies,
And weathered storms of hate,
And though i often got discouraged,
I did not hesitate.
The road ahead turned into two,
One was wide the other narrow.
I chose to take the easier path,
But that just led me to sorrow.
As I continued on my voyage,
I watched my loved ones pass me by
I saw them leave me one by one,
And still, I did not cry.
The days I faced turned into nights
The air turned bitter cold
I knew that I did not have long
For I was getting old.
I walked up to the final gate,
And paused to find the key.
And as I slipped it in the lock,
I ended my journey. | |

Posted: 11/26/2006 6:47:01 AM | Happiness
What is happiness?
The butterflies I feel inside
everytime I hear your name....
Red & gold leaves in the fall....
The constant ache of desire I have for you.....
Feelings of contentment, peace & serenity....
Being ok with me.....
The wind thru the trees...
Raindrops on a tin roof.....
Seeing your sweet smile.....
Dancing with the stars under the moonlit sky.....
Walking barefoot on a hot, summer day....
Hugs and Kisses from my little girl....
The touch of a fluffy kitten....
God's grace in my mistakes, each lesson a blessing....
Sharing a kind word and really mean it.....
Happiness comes from within
this I truly believe...
Happiness is this journey
created for you & me. | |

Posted: 11/26/2006 6:51:56 AM | Eyes meet.
Smiles shared.
Sparks fly.
Conversation flows.
A gentle touch.
A tender kiss.
Flames ignite.
Passion overwhelms.
Clothes are gone.
Naked, one on one.
Intertwined.
Spiraling orgasms.
Again & again.
Exhaustion takes over.
Asleep in each others arms.
The morning after.
Coffee in bed.
More tender kisses.
Intimate words.
Passionate embrace.
Hearts are found.
Can't forget.
Together again.
Destiny. | |

Posted: 11/26/2006 1:13:51 PM | ~~Beautiful thread you have going here butterfly....i was wondering when you were gonna get your own....well deserved...and dont let anyone make you think you are not a poet...a true poet is one that feeels...from their heart...and pours jsut that...raw emotion unto a blank screen or even in fine print....everyone has their own way and their own way is praised regardless...i wrote this for my dear friend in my thread but i thought it would fit here too....bubblez
~~~Just Write..No edit...Just Write....~~~
To write and write..of what one feels
is to be truely, internally real
i never ask of making deals..
write in beauty...unclassified
write of many a tear stained eyes
write of smiles bright and white
write of fears of nightmarish fright
write and write...and write once more
write of walking alng the shore
write of the demonic senses inside your core
write and write what you see
write of breathtaking immaculate beauty
write of the powerful waves crashing from the sea
write of intense powerfilled intenzity...
write what you will...write what you may
heed the words you write today
write from within...whether cold or grey
just believe in what you write and say
for wrting to some is a painfilled conflict
yet writing to me is letting out the demonic
is loving a life....
living with strife
hatefilled rage
the unwritten page
a simple kiss
a thoughtfilled wish
a pleasant firey blaze
a mightmare induced craze
running thru a never ending maze
just write...would you? could you? will you please...
no deals to make just be at ease
bask in the thought of being real
let it flow...no edits....just real............ | |
