birth of an angel (paloma)

becoming more precious with each passing day
it is so very simple for me to say
ever cherish your presence upon this earth
God blessed all the world, the day of your birth

Empty~

I lost my heart
I lost my place
Foolishly traded it all,
For a pretty face.

I found an empty heart
within an empty soul,
And lost the best friend,
I will ever know.

Will You Remember Me

Will you remember. the Spring, times that we've shared..
Sitting under the old maple tree.. watching as the sunlit amber leaves of the forsynthia,
fell scattered amongst the ground.,
like a sudden golden meteor shower. around Easter time..
and then watching as the lilacs
burst forth,like a passionate purple flower showering us both with love,and making our heads spin with their heady scent ,.right around Mother's Day
and...then the days spent.. taking seemingly endless drives along the countryside..
Laughing and lost in nature's beautiful spell she cast.

Pages turned
and,bridges crossed.
love we began,
hoping it would not be lost.
Will you remember,
times we've had,
loved shared.,
The hot July sun..
days spent floating upon serene blue waters..
aimlessly without a care..sun dancing recklessly in our hair,
summer's spell rendering us utterly powerless.
to resist starlit dreamy, romantic,
summer nights..spent contentedly around a bonfire,
daring us, luring us..
to give in to it's moonlit spell..
Hoping it would not be washed away.

Will you recall, as the summer turned to fall..
the cool chilly air and nights spent in,,,
staring into eachother's eyes..
we had no secrets and we had no lies..
Pillow talk, till the light of dawn..
Sometimes dreading,the imminent arrival of nearby stormy skies.

I wonder will you remember, the first snowfall..
the wonder of it all.
as we placed lights upon the tree
As we traced angels in the snow..
Tracing memories we came to know..
As if in some other time,
some other place.I can't help but wonder,
Will you even remember my face.

Will you remember me at all,
Or have you ,already been taken you from me...
Only time can know..
And sometimes it feels as though I'm in love alone.
And though you haven't yet actually gone,
I already miss you, so.

shall we have another year?

where will fate deliver us?
to the moon and back, anew
it was a bumpy ride the first time
who dreamt we'd ever make it through?

yet, here we are today
as one...you and I
our voice and touch so soothing
as some distant lullaby

the hard part became simple
be loved and love as well
all turmoil surmounted
from the blessed day we fell

in love with one another
our hearts had opened wide
no earthly matters mattered
we had let go of pride

and now we hold all number
of that we deem as real
to hold our breath no longer
for tis happiness we feel

if today we are to die
our life together end
let it be, for we have found
our rare essential friend

The Horse from the Course (challenge)

'Twas a curious horse of course
who ran round amok with great force
He had on his blinders
and rolled on his hinders
Cuz he'd crashed the mini-golf course~

About this poem:
Hmm... use this box to tell about your poem-
What it's about - a limerick(I think- it says a limerick can be a nonsense poem of 5 lines)
why I wrote it - b/c I like to be silly sometimes(& I've been told I should write a poem, tho I don't agree LOL)
how I was feeling at the time - ambivalent... but brave for Dog(It's a Dog's Life poem)

Nowhere...and Thinking

Suddenly thrusted to
The Edge of Nowhere.
The entrance to beyond.
The exit of what once was.
The Threshold of Destiny.

About this poem:
Sometimes we find ourselves thrown into a life changing decision and feel as if we are on the edge of an elevator looking into a dark shaft. Wanting to drop one floor to the promise of a great life, afraid to leave what was safe, and just suffering while we decide

I Wear Your Smile..

I wear your smile
when my face
is a frown

I wear your smile
when my spirits
are down

I wear your smile
when my heart is
in pain

I wear your smile
til' I wear mine
again~

Did You Know?

When I was confused
and lost in my soul..

You found me..

I was not searching
for you.. yet

You sought me out..

I was like a lost child
in the wilderness of
life..

You saw my love and my
hatred, but you were
greater that my heart..

And you captured me with
your love..

I did not know you..

Did not understand why
you would want me..

But you knew me from
a distance..

And you loved me..

Why did you comfort
the weak..

What am I that you
would take joy in
my presence..

Did you know?

Have you measured my
devotion to you..

You are more than
the stars of heaven..

I cherish the thought
of you..

I breathe your name..

I can barely say it..

I draw a breath..

And I tremble to
speak the words..

I whisper these
words..

I whisper.. my love..
my love..

Depression

She was depressed
She had no way out
She's been through
it all..

She's been laughed
at
Put down
Run down
Used
Abused
High jacked
Jacked up

Told she could
Never

Would never:
Stack up
Measure up
Get up
Shake it off
Put it down
Turn around
Make it
Break it
Take it

Told to:
Give it up
Call it quits
Forget about it
Fall down
Stay down
Don't move
Play dead
Act dead
You're dead
Drop dead

Said she was:
Nothing
Ugly
Dumb
Stupid
Over weight
Under weight
To tall
To short
No talent
Worthless
Useless

Told to:
Go away
Stay away
Far away
Start today!

Said she was:
Walking swamp slop

Even told her the
graveyard didn't
want anything to
do with her, so
she was wasting
her time even if
she did drop dead..

BUT!!!

Somebody spoon fed
her these pack
of lies..

And she BELIEVED THEM!!!

She BELIEVED THEM!!!

That's what gives
DEPRESSION it's
power!!!

Throw away this
list of

LIES
LIES
LIES
LIES
LIES
LIES
LIES

You are the crown
of God's creation,
Mrs President!!!

Ocean Views

Waves come in, bringing more sand
Then take it right back out again
Building up here, breaking down there
Maintaining the balance of nature’s design
Crashing-wave bubbles, frothy and white,
Some bursting in their glory, under the sunlight
Others rejoining the water source for
Another ride on life’s wave.

As I walk, my feet sink into the sand
Level, even-spaced impressions left behind
Oh so briefly before the next waves come and
Obliterate my having been, leaving no trace.
It is as it should be, leave no trace behind.
If I am to remain longer, it will have
To be within your heart and mind
While sandpipers dart back and forth

My footprints follow their own path
Close to the water’s edge as it
Laces its way across the beach
Lapping at my toes and jumping
Up to greet me with a warm
Southern drawl, caressing my thighs
Waiting for the moment when I give in
And submerge myself in its salty depth.
