Holloween Jack
Its about time those Holloween Jacks come to visit you.
Scared about children --dying so true.
Dark nights are heavier these days-- When Christmas and Holloween brew.
Farther Graves are glowing Grey.
Autumn Leaves have their dark brown Frey.
Barks of trees feels so Rusted.
as Holloween Jacks feel so trusted.
Happy Holloween to you.
When Spirits Howl on their pale white hue.
Scared about children --dying so true.
Dark nights are heavier these days-- When Christmas and Holloween brew.
Farther Graves are glowing Grey.
Autumn Leaves have their dark brown Frey.
Barks of trees feels so Rusted.
as Holloween Jacks feel so trusted.
Happy Holloween to you.
When Spirits Howl on their pale white hue.

About this poem:
Happy Birthday to someone special and to everyone enjoying this beautiful December month and celebrating your special day!
perhaps AWARE should be the word BEWARE ~freecee!~
AWARE DOESN'T MEAN I CARE
so it's like i'm hanging out at a bar one night
and I met Nadine under the neon light
we had a very nice conversation and i thought being friends was alright
but she had another agenda so as to hide from the bright
oh yes, says she, and commands with such conviction
and then her leaving without saying goodbye made fiction non-fiction
because i thought she and me might be friends the way it was meant to be
her to ease the pain of losing the closest one to me
and i to help her when help be her plea
but you see one must see past the flaws of an ex-friend
except when they're not willing to flex or to bend
one day I thought we were friends the next i was grieving
because that's what i aways do when a friend doesn't say she's leaving
(c) 2011 (as if this has to copywritten, it's only to one unforgiving, oblivious and heartless soul who found a way to have a falling out for a reason sshe caused in the first place.....twice.....poets are supposed to have soul enough to say "hey, i did make it seem like we were friends and then took off without a word, maybe he had a reason to feel abandoned, betrayed and all by someone who wanted his help as well...maybe it's easier to say "I enjoy living alone" than iit is easier than to say, "i wish i had someone to live the rest of my life with, but maybe I keep
making the same damned mistake. some people never become AWARE!

About this poem:
BECAUSE JUST I DIDN'T DESERVE WHAT I GOT AND CAN'T GET MY JUST DESSERTS
Thine Way Of Walk
One day with evening downing,just saw thou glimpse by....
And some drop of persp chick on,Ask stare to for why.
And belief of love grooved strong,Some day to be your side....
But life still not fair to,If did feel same for never do hide.
May each morn bloom you with,Flowers smile to have thou touch....
But never forget to tell same,Am only own right,to greet such.
And walk with just hand in hand,Want to soothe of having care....
But do not leave path lend with,Myself to go without,and where.
And some drop of persp chick on,Ask stare to for why.
And belief of love grooved strong,Some day to be your side....
But life still not fair to,If did feel same for never do hide.
May each morn bloom you with,Flowers smile to have thou touch....
But never forget to tell same,Am only own right,to greet such.
And walk with just hand in hand,Want to soothe of having care....
But do not leave path lend with,Myself to go without,and where.

About this poem:
This poem is for one who do not feel shame to walk on road,rather have wings to fly....
Night Light ( Cinquain )
A crow
black's darkest hue,
jet wings aflame with night,
obsidian and ebony,
lit, here.

Syllables Per Line
Following the invention of this form, Crapsey made changes to the form and included a certain number of syllables per line.
Line one had two syllables.
Line two had four syllables.
Line three had six syllables.
Line four had eight syllables.
Line five had two syllables.
There are other forms of cinquain but I liked this one.
Writing
Writing for magic or money
One thing is clear
Wish I had the magic to make money appear
Writing for reason or rhyme
Love could be a reason
Love could be a never ending line
Writing for thought or pleasure
This is what I find
It was a pleasure to know you if but for only a short time
Writing for jest or seriously
Looking for the words that binds
Love is found deeper when you read it between the lines

Hand Out
Ups and downs of loving
we all do surely know
but friendships shared
have, too, a gentle
ebb and flow
When you are down,
above with spirits high
someone may well be seen
but also beneath can be found
a friend with their deep sigh
Spirits rise, spirits fall
as day to day we go
Just look around
we are always here
of this our lives do show
Shoulder-to-shoulder
footsteps help track time
sharing laughs and tears
some walk with us, both
under clouds and in sunshine.
In any direction is
a friend to reach, no doubt
Remember, then, when spirits flag
to give, grab life and hope
Just stretch your hand out.
