So tender is Thy mercy
Where forgiveness
Triumphs over blame
And righteousness.
So tender is Thy mercy
That heals a bleeding
Heart once wounded
To Love again
So tender is Thy mercy
Where nothing can
Divide or Conquer
The quest for truth
So tender is Thy mercy
When our spirits
Delight in life
Are set free to love
So tender is Thy mercy
Where no chains
Can hold back
Our freedom to love
So tender is Thy love
When truth once more
Forms the bedrock
Of our freedom
So tender is Thy love
When forgiveness
Triumphs over blame
And righteousness

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 .

All the little pieces,
fragments and crumbs of life.
The troubles, the love,
the fears and the spice.
Make us what we are today.
Show us where we went astray.
Genetics of course play a part.
wit, talent, mood and smart.
Your fist step into first love.
Those highs of emotion truly absurd.
Insecurities we gather and carry
inform who we should marry.
Too late the wisdom of age dictates,
who would have been the perfect mate.
Our little offspring pick up clues.
Some from me and some from you.
Unintentionally we guide them unwisely.
History repeating itself precisely.
Through it all true love prevails.
We have it in abundance, females.
Mother to child, friend to friend.
It's love in the end that makes amends.

Ten cats went for deer hunting
The mercedes cat fell into the abyss
And then there were nine
Nine cats were sleeping on the couch
A heavy chandelier dropped on the cossackcat
And then there were eight
Eight cats were on the hill having a picnic
A big storm flew the sour tomcat away
And there were seven
Seven cats ate some big fish
The serene cat choked a fish bone to her death
And there were six
Six cats were having a big party
The balloon helium tube exploded and torn the track cat apart
And there were five
Five cats sat in front of the fireplace in a cold winter night
The fire suddenly burnt the giant pekaatje cat
And then there were four
four cats played in the garden
The neighbour 's pittbull bit the pedro cat's neck
And then there were three
Three cats were walking by the river bank
A giant crocodile ate the pat cat
And then there were two
Two cats were sailing in the sea
The high tide swallowed the hexagonkeyset cat
And then there was one
The friskyone cat was all alone
She hung herself
And then there was none

We talk almost every day
You are always in a positive mood
Love every minute or our conversations
I think of you always caring for me
We are made for each other
You are always on my mind
I think of you of a moment
A moment of love and passion
A day where we will spend the time of our life
I don't know why I always think of you
My special rose

~ Love ~
Do you love me!
I could fall in love with you
Could you love me,
Tell me, Tell me true
Hold me in your arms forever
I was meant for you
Never, never let me go!
Kiss my awaiting lips
and taste them very slow
They were meant for you my dear
This I really know
Hold me tight, melting in my arms
As you are meant to do ~
Close your eyes and dream of me
As I do of you!

I know somewhere there is peace,
I'm waiting for the day,
Along life's path I keep searching,
Hoping to find the way,
It's lonely here alone inside,
My windows allowing in no sun,
Crying as I endure someone else's pain,
The torrent of memories just begun,
THE CRUSHING OF BONE,
THE SHREDDING OF SKIN,
HER HEAD TWISTED COMPLETELY BACKWARDS,
HIS HORRIFYINGLY DEVILISH GRIN!
Scorching steps through my minds' parched scenes,
Sidelong glances at forgotten dreams,
No water here, no food, no one to care,
Forever locked,
Into my,
Alone Inside,
Stare.

About this poem:
there is a song by british rockers, the police, called "king of pain." my life has been a series of very tragic experiences, for myself and those i care about. i deal with them ok most of the time. but once in awhile i find myself sitting alone, with my eyes closed, staring.

I think then I wonder,
I wonder then I know,
I understand then I see,
I accept then I grow,
I love then I cry,
I laugh then I sorrow,
Only live for today,
Could be no tomorrow,
I sing then I dance,
I gaze into the sun,
I yearn deeply for wisdom,
Is The Battle ever won?
Says my soul to my heart,
"This thing must end",
Says my will to my longing,
"No. It must surely begin",
Fiercely I fight The Battle,
I stand here all alone,
No one cries for me,
Nowhere to call home.

About this poem:
From my youth I've tried to understand us Earthlings and our thought processes. But most times I feel I'm about the only one who gives a damn.
Just can't find my Tribe.

I haven't seen one flying to my direction. All I come across are heart breaks and game players....not even the dating site helps to find Mr right. Just gamers and jokers....wherw is Mr right. I know where he is in the mist of nowhere that's for sure.
