I have a Bird in spring
I have a Bird in spring Which for myself doth sing-- The spring decoys. And as the summer nears-- And as the Rose appears, Robin is gone. Yet do I not repine Knowing that Bird of mine Though flown-- Learneth beyond the sea Melody new fo

The tavern of ghosts
As I sit in the corner of my thoughts at the empty booth in an abandoned tavern, watching ghosts as they float past no one looks in the shadow. I tap my pen on the table. over and over yet none hear my anxious tapping. I look inquisitively at
The Universal Poet ( A Challenge, Are u in? )
Ive been here a while and not only have I read from a lot of poets here but have made friends with you as well. So I put this together by using just your poem titles so technically you all wrote it. Every line holds one to three titles. It was fun so I thought maybe it would make a good challenge too, but you decide. For me its simply a dedication to you and a thanks for reading my many years of doom and gloom. It helped to "get it out there" as TruRob once said to me.. Many Thanks again, Cheers…Jesse In the famous song of Legend Bob Marley "One Love, One Heart, Let's get together and feel all right…"

One can only be faithful to those whom require faith, for faithfulness is shared, one, willing to offer, the other to receive. Hence, the act of faith is not abstract it is motion: I am faithful, you trust in my faith, equal parts to the m
The Many Shades Of Love.
So varied are the hues of poetic pen, With a multitude of exploding coloured ink, In endless shades to choose from now, and then, To set the writing mood, into which we sink. Should I decide upon a nature write, I must select just one of many
A Sonnet to friendship.
To have a true Lady friend, is often subjected to ill founded thoughts, thus this sonnet is written to such a special Lady, the passage of years have not tainted one iota of the close bond we share.

My Saviour
I wrote this poem for someone special in my life at the time I was at my lowest ebb they befriended me and made me realise that life has more to it than just a lost love. They are no longer on CS and our friendship has been lost for I became to embroiled in my own world and lost contact, I was never going to publish it without their permission because in my mind it belonged to them and still does but she gave me so much hope that I feel all should now see.
