The man I wanted to be
I look inside me, Trying to see, A vision of the man I wanted to be, With wisdom in his eyes, You could tell he was wise, When he was talking there was never a lie, And though he wasn't perfect you could tell the man tried, The twists and t
Good Bye Dear Friend
In memory of a very special woman: Donna W. Dear friend of 22 years. I found out tonight my dear friend had passed from an ongoing struggle with lung disease. The end came quickly and it's a reminder to us all to live well, laugh often and love without condition. Yesterday was the one year anniversary of the sister's passing. If there is someone you haven't forgiven in this life, do it. If someone seeks forgiveness from you, grant it. It's a win win situation. A moment of silence for all of us feeling the sting of loss right now. Blessings.
When Angels Die
The heavens shook.. The slaughter of the innocents have reached the throne of love And there was a great silence in heaven.. A terrible blight has blackened the skies of this lower world A cry has gone throughout the land A mother weeping f

As The Bell Struck High Noon
Was so long ago, lost in the mists of time Barely remember it, I must be getting old But one thing I do know, should not have happened Time heals all wounds, maybe even this one She came from, no-one knew where Settled down here, like a prince
Sunrise
As the sun slowly crests the horizon Life stirs, the world awakens You can feel the earth move beneath your feet As if slow rhythmic breathing And as you lay your ear to the ground You can almost hear a faint heartbeat It is then you feel one w
The Nothing Poem
Ok, cut me some slack..I'm off work today..lol.
unknown feelings
I wrote this poem as a song originally, a long time ago. Its about taking chances even when we are unsure of the outcome. Its just about letting our thoughts and feelings free.
"Tiny In My Eyes"
This was a poem that I wrote with a self-inflicted time restriction... I had 10 minutes before a particular meeting started and I wanted to write a poem within that 10 minute time frame... this is what evolved.
You are the last moon I love it

Kick it's challenge (crooked fence)
A thousand steps, walking a crooked fence. Where's the revalance, for my feet to transport such restlessness. What's in sight, as I walk not knowing where I'm going. Can't even see the light. One thousand steps is
SPRING CLEANING
This poem is meant to show growth and not to scare a potential partner. LOL. Simple an awakening.

Bye Bye Facebook
Unwanted updates that you don't want to see, new relationship status, someone else not me. Wasting my time flicking through past photos and recalling happy and unhappy memories of a life that's been, dwelling in the past on an electronic society. Already addicted to too many things, quitting FB is a start.

Alone with nature one can feel a strange unity with everything around Unity that is so strong and overpowering that one loses consciousness of one's individual self One's consciousness seems to merge with a deeper consciousness of the uni

Romany Gypsy (final poem here)
I first posted here 1 year ago today. I have learned so much from so many talented poets here who were unstinting in their praise and encouragement To so many of you I owe so much. Dear friends I will pop in from time to time to read your work A special tnx to my friend MM without who's help and unstinting support I would still be writing just free verse to Liam for his encouragement and loyal support so many poets here that I love and admire I bide you all adieu yet not farewell for many of you I will see on Soup love and hugs
who needs reality without you
still thousands more of dark and morbid writes as a testament of my undying (yet wilted and wasted) love. but the good news is I am now free..healed and moved on.. but yet the mark of this love in my heart lives on....endless...no other way..
