You listen to the heart
You are a billeting once and listen, What does your soul want? We so often don't listen to soul, On a habit hurrying somewhere... We it is so frequent - in desires of t

This old fella's determination just amazed me ..........losing the feelings in his feet he would walk approximately 2 kms along the soft sand with these walking sticks every day
Fallen Tree

Night time, what divides today and tomorrow, a new start, for some a new life, time to put things behind us and look forward......Sleep well...Andrew....xxx

ONE LITTLE WORD
One Little Word...And a dole, sour face erupts in a Smile. One Little Word...And a clouded Spirit floods with freshness. With One Little Word...the most heavily burdened takes a lighter step and pursues a task with grace. Just One Little

Soul Goddess Challenge, YOU MADE THE SUN SHINE
Hi SG, Looking at your brief, I thought I would approach this from the viewpoints of both teacher and class, it is so easy for misunderstandings to go unsorted on both sides when they don't communicate properly. So this is about a teacher that sees that learning is a two way street.They were too busy doing their job to teach, and, a class that finds a teacher is not what they thought, who helped them in ways they never expected. Hope I got it right and that this is OK for you.....Andrew...xxx
NOW!!!
Let’s listen to the silence – it’s important, We lose so often great and special moments. Just look at sky – it’s full of dreams and light, And our lives – significant and bright. Keep quiet and listen to new baby born, And look at growing sm

what your LOVE Meant To Me
This poem was inspired by TattooQueen . But I have also included a brand new way of expression in this poem.every capital word is a replacement of another word that sounds alike and has a different meaning completely,I strongly believe ENGLISH POETRY is evolving.I could be an idiot or genius whichever it leads was worth the effort made. If you think i'm correct about this ,i also offer the challenge to try this new style of writing which I call it Morgan's verse . Not sure if it has been written like this before ,what does a high school dropout know? Lack of knowledge ,not of trying ! Please I beg of you for your generous comment for my enlightenment! Also for those with poor english i've written down the correct word in sequence .they are ..this...dream...eagerly...lover...these...tea...me...me I thank you all for reading this humble intro .

Pause
Close your eyes let out the world. Listen to each note let your body sway this way and that way. Let the music into your soul let it just be there if only for this moment in time. Let your body and music become O N E.

It is not even close to the original, but at least I have tried. "Try and fail, but don't fail to try" as the saying goes. Or after I have tried it may end up like this: "I see it all perfectly; there are two possible situations - one can either do this or that. My honest opinion and my friendly advice is this: do it or do not do it - you will regret both." (Soren Kierkegaard) If I regret both then why should I worry?! Best wishes, dear poets!
The forgotten life...
There it lies in a corner, That life you wished you had befriended, That life you wished you had become more familiar with, Lying forgotten in a corner, Lost in tatters in some pain-filled alcove of your mind..., Waiting, drained like an orphan
