GIFTED FREEDOM.
Sense of silence, as waves beat the shore
No humans linger, just gull give the encore
Wind drives ocean spray, scatters all around
Surf-shells upon the sand, cause rolling sound
Dune grass waves and bends, eerie-wild
Seaweed wet and twisted, randomly piled
Bleak in the evening light, giver of peace
Rugged solitude, raw beauty will never cease
As the light fades, only sounds will be heard
Crashing on shore, silence from sleeping birds
Moonlight plays its part, shimmering on the sea
Nature never harnessed, and gifted for free...….
No humans linger, just gull give the encore
Wind drives ocean spray, scatters all around

Seaweed wet and twisted, randomly piled
Bleak in the evening light, giver of peace
Rugged solitude, raw beauty will never cease
As the light fades, only sounds will be heard
Crashing on shore, silence from sleeping birds
Moonlight plays its part, shimmering on the sea
Nature never harnessed, and gifted for free...….

About this poem:
Unspoilt nature.....
Fireball's Diary Entry
What a day of practice we had
Turns out my buddy Rudolph is a freak!
He has this huge glowing red nose
It's a real shame too
Cause that reindeer could really fly!
But Santa doesn't want him around any more that the rest of us
I really liked it when Santa scolded his father
Telling him he should be ashamed of himself
He should be ashamed!
Probably ate too much of that illegal lichen
Everybody knows if you eat too much of that crap your kids will come out goofy
My dad never ate that crap!
And look at how awesome I look!
Except for the red hair I'm pretty handsome
Well, I'm looking forward to tomarrow
Practicing running and jumping into the wind and shaming Rudolph!
Turns out my buddy Rudolph is a freak!
He has this huge glowing red nose
It's a real shame too
Cause that reindeer could really fly!
But Santa doesn't want him around any more that the rest of us
I really liked it when Santa scolded his father
Telling him he should be ashamed of himself
He should be ashamed!
Probably ate too much of that illegal lichen
Everybody knows if you eat too much of that crap your kids will come out goofy

About this poem:
Trying to bring Rudolph's experience into the way kids who are different are treated in school today.HOARDER OF BEAUTY.
Rock formation, reach for the sky
Sharp and majestic, soaring high
Cloud capped, at the start of day
At breaking dawn, sun-rays play
Surreal beauty, as a picture posed
Snow capped in winter, until day close
Wearing hostile, haunting-chilled face
None can deny, pure natural grace
Beckoning, to view in true awe
Cone like inspiration, never bore
Within its shadows, or from afar
Viewed by all, unique rising star
From close up, true details seen
In the distance, a magical dream
Of wonder, allow eyes to focus-absorb
Storing beauty, nature collectors hoard
Spectacle, rolling plains that stretch
In all directions, as if scene was set
Backdrop, forms a frame of wonder
Whether viewed in sun, rain or thunder...…
Eerie, in darkness glows surreal
Wearing halo, heavenly light peels
Drawing eyes, from miles around
Haunting beauty, that makes no sound......

About this poem:
a mountain that one passes when travelling south....always worthy of a glance.......FOREST HUSH.
Through tree mass, river weaves
Surrounded by scattered autumn leaves
Flickering light, through tree canopy
Haunting peace so special to me
River cuts 'round rocks, running fast
Crystal raindrops drape, but won't last
Waiting the sun, to change the scene
Fresh russet shades with forest green
Stillness broken, eyes can't see
No visual movement, sound the key
Muffled footsteps, on carpet of leaves
Echoed dog barks, carried by breeze
Hollow and cool, this shaded bliss
Spent rain carried on breeze, to kiss
Naked cheeks, that branches touch
Sharing nature, enjoyed so much
Solitude engulfs, those who walk
Total silence, no need to talk
Eyes darting, to absorb all
Creatures watching, others call
Cobwebs, damp with past rain
Clinging to trees, as spiders gain
Airborne travel, between the trees
Humans walk, aim to feel free....
Leave the hidden place refreshed
Forestry time their soul caressed
Nature heals, the healthy way
Sharing with all, every day....
Surrounded by scattered autumn leaves

About this poem:
Coolness of a forest, sheltered from sun and giving solitude......for those wanting to replenish soul.....with nature's gift.
habit
needing no one, not you
with no uncrossed lines
sure as can be in theft and blameless flight
mist assuring friend, purrs pleased
and pleasingly
mistaking love for
mutilated mice gifts
rabbit heart morsel
creating singleshandedly

“Why did We Meet?” - I asked the God
“Why did we meet?” - I asked the God,
“Why is it that I love again as never did?”
The God responded: “Wait a little more,
Soon I will make you part – no more to meet.
You know, together you are not to be,
Not in this life for sure, just believe me,
But you yourself are well aware of this,
Law cannot be reversed, there’s not a thing for it.
It were you who asked to stay with him for blink,
For mere instance, just to look into his eyes.
No thanks, no gratitude from you I now need,
Though I’m aware you are sending curses up.
I gave you little more than you had asked,
If only for a shorter time, if not for endless spell.
But was is not for what you ever cried?
With him you’re happy, aren’t you?” And I will answer: “Yes!”
“Wasn’t it for what you ever prayed?
Feel happiness with him, be it for little while,
Say all you ever failed to say,
His tenderness, its smell to breathe inside.
You asked for kiss, I gave you nights,
You asked for tenderness, I gave you lust.
I gave you more, in vain you agonize,
It’s always painful falling from the height.”
“Do you remember, God, to you I prayed,
To let a part of him with me remain?”
And He responded in despondent way:
“I have this happiness in store for someone else.
Hold on to what you have, feel no regret for past,
And just remember that he was your happy chance,
That tenderness you keep in mind, with which you loved,
I’ll bring him back in dreams once you have closed the eyes.”

About this poem:
My translation of a Russian poetess for your pleasure, dear poets!This poem is not about giving up on the past, we will cherish it to the end. It is about going on with our life and finding reasons to be happy, no matter what may be happening to us at the moment, cause life is more than the past, no matter how happy or troublesome, and it is more than the present with its worries and joys. Life itself is a precious thing appreciable in many ways with, sadly, end of the line at some point, so the mere fact of being alive and walking around seeing things should be filling us up with happiness!
~ Missing You ~
Missing You
~ Let me tell you how ~
Would the Heavenly Night, miss it’s shinning stars
The Moon ~ it’s glowing beams of love,
on lovers, holding hands in it’s Moon’s radiance!
Ocean furious sea’s smashing on it’s far away rocky shores
The Earth spinning around madly on it’s axis
The smiling, laughing faces of happy children
Young lover’s strolling along sandy beaches in love
Does the morning miss the beauty
of it’s crack of dawn
Holding you in my arms
~ Do I miss you ~
The truth of the matter is I do!

About this poem:
Tis a poem of wishing& want!
Got Your Love
I don’t need to be good
Even if I could
I just feel the need to be
A little understood
I don’t need to be rich
Ever was my dream
Happy with what I got
Only light in my eyes gleam
I don’t need to be happy
At least all the time
Just whenever I see you
It makes my spirits climb
I don’t need to be lonely
Feeling dark inside
I just feel the need to be
Sharing some paradise
I don’t need to be famous
No idea at what
Just treated a little special
Tis enough to make me strut
I don’t need many things
I can really think of
None that come to mind
Long as we got love
Even if I could
I just feel the need to be
A little understood
I don’t need to be rich
Ever was my dream
Happy with what I got
Only light in my eyes gleam
I don’t need to be happy
At least all the time
Just whenever I see you
It makes my spirits climb
I don’t need to be lonely
Feeling dark inside
I just feel the need to be
Sharing some paradise
I don’t need to be famous
No idea at what
Just treated a little special
Tis enough to make me strut
I don’t need many things
I can really think of
None that come to mind
Long as we got love

About this poem:
Another little abstract about why love is so necessary.Capturing Time
Just when you feel most alive
Life is full of beauty
A feeling that you get
Like the ocean
Flowing through your veins
Life is full of blossoms
An orchard in spring
Just when you feel most afraid
Life is full of darkness
A feeling that you get
Like a storm
Raging through your space
Life is full of promises
A chest of hope inside
Like a treasure
Glittering with gold
Just when you feel most in love
Life is full of grace
A feeling that you get
Like a rainbow
Shining in your face
Life is full of sunshine
A perfect summer day
Like a dream
Spinning out of place
Just when you feel most secure
Life is filled with love
A feeling that you get
Like the children
Playing in the park
Life is filled with laughter
Each frame a perfect shot
Like a camera
Capturing time
Life is full of beauty
A feeling that you get
Like the ocean
Flowing through your veins
Life is full of blossoms
An orchard in spring
Just when you feel most afraid
Life is full of darkness
A feeling that you get
Like a storm
Raging through your space
Life is full of promises
A chest of hope inside
Like a treasure
Glittering with gold
Just when you feel most in love
Life is full of grace
A feeling that you get
Like a rainbow
Shining in your face
Life is full of sunshine
A perfect summer day
Like a dream
Spinning out of place
Just when you feel most secure
Life is filled with love
A feeling that you get
Like the children
Playing in the park
Life is filled with laughter
Each frame a perfect shot
Like a camera
Capturing time

About this poem:
I feel 'a cosmic green light' staying on for me to write just now.~Santa's Elf has fallen in Love ~
~ Santa’s Elf has fallen in Love ~
Elfie was smitten, as smitten as he could be
He met her as a new elf in Santa’s toy shop
And when Elfie saw her his heart did a flip flop!
He said to Santa, please make me a special diamond ring
I want to give it to her, she’s such a pretty, lovely thing
So Santa made him one with loving care
She shows it to every one, she’s as happy as can be
And Elfie has his love, prettier then any angel upon the top of a Christmas tree ~
~Merry Christmas to All ~
