We all have a bit of magic,
Coming from within,
You can see it twinkle in an eye,
or a wicked little grin.
Think of all the people,
For whom life is so grim.
they drag themselves from day to day,
with no vigor and no vim.
Just living in the moment,
Makes life a thrilling ride.
Life begins anew each day,
like the changing of the tide.
Don't ever let life grind you
Down to a lifeless bone.
let your inner magic lift you,
before all your dreams have all flown.
Live life as an adventure,
every second filled to the brim.
If you live life just for the moment,
Pure magic will shine from within

You found me broken at the side of the road
Dazed, confused and almost no hope
You sat down beside me and chatted a while
Then stretched out your hand and said with a smile
“Come walk with me down this road
We’ll take a few steps and see where we’ll be.
It’s a good time to live, just come walk with me."
I looked up and saw magic in your eyes
And felt a spark light somewhere deep down inside
You held my hand and dragged me along
“This is life’s road. It’s where we belong.”
I walked by your side in wonder and awe
At the beauty that is in all that we are.
You showed me the love you wanted to share,
So I walked at your side along this strange road
Learning of love and yearning for more.
I turned to the side and the path that was there
“Come walk with me down this wandering path?”
You smiled as you said “Of course I will dear.
We’ll make our own path and tend it with care.”
So we walked down that road paying no mind
To those who would laugh as we passed by.
So when we walked home the very last time
And we lay down forever in each other’s arms.
And when we were gone and the laughter had died
All they could say is,
”Where are the lovers so old and so grey
Who lived their love new each and every day.”

About this poem:
I write quite a lot now "I am Broken and alone"
and I wrote this in about 15 minutes when i Woke in the middle of the night. At the time I was just starting to explore the realm of dating. Unsure and eager. I was rewarded by a scammer contacting me one one of the sites i was on. Never the less I was flattered and this is what spilled out of me that evening when I thought that I might have received an opportunity to love again

When you look at someone sweet,
Whom you're sure you'd like to meet,
Could it be love?
Should that someone touch your heart,
And it hits you from the start,
Maybe it's love.
If the things they say and do,
Trap you up and capture you,
It could be love.
If the two of you connect,
And your souls then intersect,
Then that is love.

So many brave, brave soldiers have fallen in the war,
They Battle heated flames and toxic smoke,
that come knocking at the door.
They hear inferno's victims calling, when they grasp their chests and choke.
They make their way through falling debris, to find them in the smoke.
The mighty soldier's gear protects him from his angry foe,
His suit, his hat, his boots, his mask, from his head down to his toe.
But sometimes his gear can't save him, from collapsing things around,
And then our mighty soldier sadly falls and hits the ground.
He's risked his life to save us from the awful raging rival.
We owe our lives to all of them, They fight for our survival!
But sometimes the fire wins the fight, though our soldiers did their best.
And though he gallantly did fight, for now he's laid to rest!
So remember all our fallen soldiers, They did it selflessly.
And remember, support with care and love, their loving family,
For now they have an empty void that is tearing at their hearts.
So honor what the soldier did before he did depart!
And make it known to all their kin, to all that heed your voice,
You appreciate the firefighter, and his brave career choice.
When you see a fighter black with soot, or cleaned with utter care,
Then smile, and say, "Why thank you, for just you being there!"

Bright and sunny days,
Can be quite oppressive.
Heat, humidity,
Can become excessive.
Heavy clouds can be,
Shields from radiation.
Cooling fevered brows,
Welcome, soft sensation.
Summer thunderstorms,
Oft bring a freshing breeze,
Rippling 'cross the puddles,
Waving through the trees.
So please don't curse the rain,
Falling from above,
Just another proof of,
Mother Nature's love.

Too hot to go outside, so I wrote this poem instead. Life brings both sunshine and rain, might as well enjoy them both as best we can.

I love you so and always will,
On that you can depend.
Though we're again so far apart,
With only words to send.
Our time together was so brief,
So swiftly did it pass.
I treasure ev'ry moment now,
In memory it lasts.
Each day is spent now, struggling,
To make my dreams come true.
Hard though it be, somehow must find,
The pathway back to you.

You know something no one knows
You’ve been somewhere no one goes
Heard the music no one hears
Unless they listen with lover’s ears
You’ve seen color shape and form
That no one else could see
You’ve felt chills and you’ve felt warm
You’ve touched every part of me
Is it better? Is it best?
Knowing more than all the rest?
Is sweetness glinting in your eye
Because denial is a lie?
Do you await the confrontation
By someone who suspects
So you can gush your heart’s elation
And quote a name from scripture’s text
Or do you worry? Feel unsure?
Too soon perhaps to feel secure?
If blooming heart were meant for pain
To share it would be no one’s gain
Nothing ventured nothing lost
None to trouble none to blame
If risk’s unworthy of the cost
If thrill and peril are the same
Don’t decide until you feel
That what you know is truly real
For no one knows, no one can guess
At work at home or on CS
Does your secret make you smile?
Will you keep it, for a while?

I am the very definition of perfection.
Just as perfect as perfect can be.
So please do not judge me with a razored tongue,
nor eyes so dull, they fail to see.
For I do not measure my worth, by another's perception of perfection.
It matters not, one single wit to me.
Under divine direction, created just as I was meant to be.
A perfect work of imperfection, progressing most perfectly.
In any imperfection, it is only perfection that I choose to see.
And how I choose to define that, is always up to me.
For I was created imperfectly, so very, very perfectly.
Yes, just as perfect, as perfect can be.

How to tell you to understand me very well
Understanding is not easy as you think
If it is between two souls
And more if they are more honest and truthful
I am sure you will take more time to do this
But how can I wait for you
To live without a dear and near
Understand me is so simple
If you are honest and humble
Then you never take more time
Bcuz you just need to take the way to
Think about your feels to understand me
But it is not easy as you think
If you are trying to cheat me and your soul…

We need money to live better
Someone lives for money
And others living in money
Others are not aware about money
Someone kills and someone killed for it
And started war only for this
Finally every one goes to end
Which cannot stop by money?
So money will make more pain…
