Farewell Cafe under
seagull skys
With your umbrella
tables, and boardwalk
fries
Farewell to the girl
with sand in her toes
To beachballs and cokes
and sunburn nose
Farewell Cafe to your
neon lights flashing
electric colors on
boardwalk nights
Farewell Cafe to your
menu of love for mine
was taken..to angels
above~

Thought I'd throw in one with a twist..

She look into his eyes and knew he hurt, by the way he held his head away from crowd...
She saw someone approach him and the smile was there, as if by magic it appeared...
She knew everyone thought all was well, when in reality he was living in hell...
He stretched out his hand to take a drink, and standing so close her eyes on the glass she saw his fingers clink...
It hurt her heart, She felt his pain...
Knowing what it feels like to love someone, who may never feel the same...

you never walked..
twas more
the curve of the earth
found a mooring
in the shape of your foot
you never painted..
twas more
you found the depth
of unwitting testimony
and magic
bled through the canvas
you never sang..
twas more a distillation
of vibrated yearning
and what emerged
saluted a starved ear
you never chased
numerical truth..
twas more
the starling cloud of value
settling
on the branch of your logic
you never laughed..
twas more the agents of joy
constructing
permanent dwellings
beneath your eyes
you never swam
the springs tide..
twas more
the sea inhaled
and the normal laws of physics
let you pass
you never died woman..
twas more
every smile, ever formed
took flight
forever

be it couples , be it elements ,
be it fire , be it water .
Always there is a mystery to them ,
the opposites.
their existence baffled many ,
baffled philosophy , baffled science .
some exist in conflict , some in harmony ,
the opposites.
ying yang , positive and negative ,
good and evil , light and dark .
balancing one another since the dawn of eons ,
the opposites.
in the origin with the big bang , in the every existing atom ,
in the age of the cave man , in the age of the modern man.
they were with the dawn of the universe and will be there till it ends ,
the opposites.

About this poem:
this is my amateur poetry on opposites . It began as a describing of couples who are opposites but completely transformed into a discription of opposites in their essence .
tell me what you think about it .

Singles not connected in anyway, login here from day to day. Love they seek by day, happiness by nite; they pray. But could this yet be, an elusive distant dream? Each new day sees, new-faces coming on stream. Profiles they are building, hopes are all they have. Yet months and years passing, most remain for love- starved. Longing for that tender kiss, passions long unfelt and gone. Nightly reminiscence, of what they missed, wondering whether to go on. But dream on my brother and sister you dream too. 'connecting-singles' is like no other, dreams here do come through!

I'm looking for you I think- I wish-
wondering why must I be alone?
I've much to share, and give and heck,
don't want to be an old crone!
Laughing, smiling, hugging- yes
nothing better to do this day!
Will you share some time with me...
there's much to do in many ways.
I'd love a partner to
whittle away time
to comfort, console to
help with a rhyme.
Let's share a sunset,feed the ducks,
watch tv or feed our face,
Stand or sit or "heeheehee"
Play or talk in yours-my space?
Inside , outside, upside down.....
Have a picnic, go to town?
Live, and like, and laugh together
With no thought to whats the weather.
As I did when all these words...
tumbled out quite absurd.
The thought remained regardless
of rhyme
I'd love someone to share my time.
Are you out there...
Am I just dreaming
Just like these words effortlessly
streaming.
Am I ...are you looking too ?
I hope that I can find you.

Salvation
Sweet Jesus I owe everything to you and to you alone,
You have shown me my home,you are my anchor stone,
You have saved me always when stormy winds have blown,
You have always been my rock,the truest friend I've known,
So why do you think me worthy as a seed you have sown
What can I ever do to earn all the love you've shown .
Ch:
Let me know sweet Jesus, let me know beyond my days
Let me know my savior,when I bow down to you in praise,
When my time here is drawing short and coming to a close,
As they carry me away after leading the life I chose,
I pray that I will leave not sorrow for those that I love,
But instead to know the joy that waits for us above.
I am not a wealthy man but I am very rich by far,
When I walk my journey you're my guiding star
And you know that I am honest in all the things I do,
I have never born false witness,I only say what's true,
You have strengthened my soul before I even knew
Of life's losses with your love to see me through.
You have always had your hand placed within my soul,
You have shown me your light that has made me whole,
I have never known this love that comes from your grace,
Nor have I known compassion that shines from your face,
For I am still a sinner and you are the son of God
I can only meet you after I've slept beneath the sod.

About this poem:
Note: I could not get to sleep after attending a gospel show in our sister church.The entertainment was from my home town and they were great.Anyway,I had 2 cups of coffee for brunch earlier.Perhaps both kept me awake.The melody started in my head followed by the first line of the chorus,then I had to get up and this is the result.Other than a couple typos,I did not change one syllable.

to the man i love
If I die, please don't cry..
Pray for me and just say good bye..
As i go, want to let you know
I was happy and love you soo.
Don't be sad instead be glad
Because from now on I will be with father God..
Forgetting me would be better,
So you can find a happy ever after.
I'm going now with a happy face
But I will never forget you're sweet embrace..
Wipe those tears and keep the smile,
I want you to be happy as I say good bye..
