Merry Christmas Momma
One very lonely day during the holidays the first year without either of my parents I found myself writing this and one for Daddy. A little sappy - what can I say :)
The room
the tormented mind
what is love
How you express the desire for love
ah to feel a hold of a love

TRIBUTE TO A DYING FRIEND
As told in the poem, a true story.
My Distant Prince ( Niall)
This is all about how my new found love raised me up from my traumatic experience in the past.He is from Ireland.I'm from the Philippines. We are far apart but our hearts met and our feelings transcends with no boundaries at all.
Love
Love A burning consumes my soul As I gaze upon thee Yet you do not see You are my goal Slowly you turn and walk away Though I do stay My heart goes with you Oh, if you only knew My days are filled with visions of you Yet our moments t

This poem came from meditation, and is displayed as conceptualised. love. Is an absolute condition of the human condition, hopefully all eventually realise the unconditionality of love. We are probably born with the concept of love at a deep genetic level, however we must learn to love. I find the last line the most intriguing, the word evolve separated by a dash shows love in reverse, ve usually in English conveys the position of I. So through the process of learning love or evolving the human condition we move to higher states and realise greater realms of love, the last line conveys or transports us to the position of, I HAVE EVOL-ED Maybe love and the evolving human condition are intricately symbiotic. That's the way I intemperate it anyhow. Regards.....Andy

"Grand" Parents
I came from a broken home and was thrown from pillar to post. I would stay with an aunt and uncle for a time. Then with a lady-friend of my dad's. But the best time of my life growing up was when I got to stay with my grandparents. The part about the tomato is true. My grandpa would sometimes take a salt shaker with him in his shirt pocket when he went out to tend the garded. He'd pick a tomato, lick it and then sprinkle salt on it and eat it. Well, "monkey see, monkey do"! One day he went to the garden and I followed. I started eating cherry tomatoes. He noticed and said, "Hey! Stop eating the tomatoes". I replied "But, you eat them all the time!" And Grandpa said "You just wait for supper". So, I still had one cherry tomato left in my hand. And, he made me angry with his one-way business,so, I hauled off and threw that tomato at him whilst he was bent over. The tomato just missed hitting him in the head by an inch or so. I got so scared at the thought of what would have happened had I connected, that I almost peed my britches.
wisdom of the snake
it's a riddle mostly seen from popular and yet unpopular myths somewhere in time. my poem style in this case was on a mood a bit like a jester. a dark humor that somehow makes me laugh about the stupid things we humans actually do. by the way no offense towards religious people!
Handsome Nell
this is the first poem Robert Burns wrote at the age of fifteen and the subject fouteen year old Nelly Kilpatrick, the daughter of a blacksmith near Mount Oliphant. It was written in the autumn of 1773.

"The Rose and the Weed"
One day while pondering the thought and possibility of plants 'thinking and speaking'... I came up with this poem. It's meant to be an analogy of the way people's lives can sometimes be compared to one another. Success vs failure, popular vs unpopular, accepted vs the outcasts. May it cause us all to be a bit more compassionate and sensitive to those around us who may appear to be less fortunate in life's circumstances.
Identity
I wrote this poem back in college when some friends and I would visit local coffee shops. It pretty much sums up my life at the time.
No Death!
I Death has no powers or state to rule Life is all there is on this simple plane No death, no darkness, only the Light For in The Master’s plans, there’s no dread night II And when the gloom descends and settles here And the heart makes q

Bananas
This poem is about bananas. I wrote it because I like bananas. I was feeling like eating a banana when I wrote it.

Leap to freedom.
(The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog) This piece is about the sentence that typists learn, to gain mastery of the keyboard, and enhance speed. I wanted to try to turn it into a poem without mentioning any of the words in the sentence directly, but to try to convey the meaning in a lighthearted way.
COSMIC INTIMACY
Connection and intimacy is the inspiration of this poem.
Paint Me In Chocolate!
This is just a sensual poem of what could happen if one was to paint me in chocolate. It's a fantasy, a dream.
true love
Writing this poem has been difficult, a roller-coaster ride of emotions, I probably should have written this many years ago, but I chose to stop writing instead. We all suffer hardships and grief in our life, sometimes it feels like our world is falling apart. The one truth I have found is that our dreams don’t just end; they change and bring new beginnings. Without the difficult times how would we be able to identify how precious and beautiful life is, and how insignificant the things we worry about really are.
The Best Ever
Thinking of the woman of my dreams.

"Mystical Honeymoon"
i am still inspired by Kitamura Kigin(japanese poet from the XVII Century)... i combine the love theme of "Iwatsutsuji"("Wild Azaleas" or "Rock Azaleas") with other elements of eastern poetry such as the scar of a warrior, hope from an auspicious star and the scent-probably from an incense of indian clove that shows a spicy inner feeling... about the queen bee, probably i don´t deserve this kind of relationship, and so, being humble, i compare myself to a beloved quean because i am not the main consort or lover to this unknown worthy drone...
