If it was my arrogance that possibly could hold me in emotionally
Thoughts as he should know it was truly my arrogance that made
him leave~~

If I grow alone it is because of my selfish ways
It is because my self-importance stood once again
This is what has been throughout my life
Smugness always seem to step ahead of me
As someday the vanity will be the death
within me~~

Just to gratified to say I am not A-OK
As life alone is a daunting thought

I had this vision I might of seen within myself
To see my reflection in the mirror is such a moment of time
Coming forth I got to learn more about who I am
Some may like me and others may not
Reflection is nice if there is a shadow to drag with ya
If you see beyond yourself you will see who I am
Color is just a color, flesh is soft the sand is soft and the beach is calm
Summer is gone and winter is about to begin
Lost in time and standing beyond the days to come
I am just glad to see who I am and for you
I will remain that ghost beyond the breeze of the ocean

The man was weary and you heard his voice from afar soon the child cried out oh mommy please do not leave me behind as daddy cried out take shelter the storm is hitting now.
Rubbing hands together looking for the perfect spot to lay and rest was so many fighting for what once belong to him or his little sister.
Our nation is still and so many people saying what is going on the siren went off and so many ran for shelter and others wanted to watch.
Children torn as once was his toy room and parents looking to see what is the next step to go and where will we go tonight November rains and winds on the way in and the way out of Washington IL. So many feared and others just prayed and then it was still and then it was a mess of destruction as God has a plan and sometimes without an understanding.
Crying people who are weary as the community pulls together and individuals are claiming what once was their home but in altogether it is the sign of reality that times hit hard and could end soon.
“The core of the world as you read further in Matthew verse 12:39 as Jesus has spoken with the Pharisees” (King James Bible Mathew verse 12:39). Could not be spoken as the township of Washington IL, is broken and so many dismayed to what the earth will bring back.
God is good and so many were not touched and others where God uplifted so many as Church Bells rang on this particular day with high winds and higher weather hit in the 70’s and churches resume to hold on as others wondered if they would make it another moment until they saw the end of this day's disaster.
The reality of this is America can uphold the bad and the good so can we as God has that plan to rebuild and become who we were yesterday. Pulling together to detect what may of landed in a few towns close by a photo of the favorite pet or even a child or grandparent photo these are the memories that can be rebuilt but the home will never be the same unless you claim Jesus Christ as your Savior and this home will never have any distractions that lead to destruction like November 17th will forever be a scar on earth and a stone to what could just be the warning to what could be the end forever.

Where have I been?
Best of all is the facts I am back,
To take the thoughts to is she gone forever.
Has she lost the touch?
It is more on the line can she feel?
Of certainly of those who care,
I am back for the moment.
I had to see if I could still write,
Found myself lost for words.
Wondering as to see if there were,
The friends yet in poet's corner.
I once, knew.

Then I come to grips,
That it could just be you.
The one who thought you,
Really knew who I was.
Best of everything is I was here,
When will I be back?

Perhaps Another…

Earth~~

Below the sky they call it the earth
As the circle turns it is part of the world
A new child is born each hour of the day
To where another will lay to rest
This is why earth to wind
Sky to fire
Someday we will all be lifted from
This earth
To that happy place above this earth
Called the glory land of
Earth~~

I stumble upon a midnight thought it could be you or possibly me..
Finding my thought before it must drift away oh please stay awhile as I do not want you to go?

Under my pillow lays a dream and I wake with a smile knowing I slept with warm thoughts of you so near wishing I could recap it today for a life together as we feel like more than a dream....

I woke up and saw I was laying alone then when I realize I was in a dream I rolled over and soon fell back to sleep to ponder if you ever even existed to reality of more than a DREAM....

I once had a friend; it was not a girl nor was it a boy~

I often wondered why this friend was so close~

When I closed my eyes at night there that friend was~

As I woke of a morning, again my friend was there~

Everywhere I went that friend was so close by~

If this is not a female or a male how is it a friend?

Time went on and there that friend was very near~

Do I imagine that there is a friend there?

Imaginary friends do not speak,

Nor do they fight, grin, laugh at you~

Always there to listen to you~

When you need a true friend to be there’

You can always count on that~

FRIENDSHIP COUNTS

Brightness is the light that shines from behind us.

Please go away I like it dark...

Did it ever occur I am trying to sleep...

When it is finally dark I am awake.

What is wrong with this picture...

Night I want to be up to see the darkness..

Daylight I want to sleep away..

I often think this is messed up or I should.

Run to another part of the world

Where day and night are messed up.

So I will not be compleatly messed up.

Dark is black = Night

Light is sky blue = Light

However, both colors are dark on the color chart.

It is okay to like dark as long as you do not run from it.

We think of dark as the color black.

We often become afraid within ourself.

Dark sometimes brings out what is from within ourself.

When it becomes too dark we run.

Darkness is just the darker shade of gray.

Do not run from dark as dark closes within you.

Witches and caves, bats, and deep darkness into the night.

Do not be afraid it soon will be light.

As dark turns away to daylight. The thing to dark is not to run.

Sound of silence and calm waves of sheets
Crisp as a breeze...
Not a single noise to be heard..
Just sound of silence.....
Wondered if I was the noise to be heard......
Open the window the air is crisp of winter so close.
Lay here and wonder why sound could be so silent?
;-) could it be because I'm alone....
Shhhhhhhhhh the sound is of silence

I just thought about all of the holidays and how the time can be so blue for so many.
If I could stay away I would however, I had the whisper in my ear I needed to stop by and say I am alive and time is healing me once again.

I have heard and never could imagine in my adult hood I would be fallen as a cyber-bullies victim as I was.

Just trying to make myself better and not better than others just better than being low under myself...

For some they will wait the long line of welfare or unemployment...

However, this ole gal will not she has to do whatever, it takes
And if it means going little to survive then so be it...

I never thought much how one could be so cruel to another but as we work in teams in college the other five members seem to think it was
Okay to cyber bully well who won not them. I walked away not afraid just tougher than an ox and left them behind to wonder where the leader has gone and will they score...? Not as I did

I won and they hate it and this class has gone and I am strong because I do not except cyber bullies to even chat with and I walked away quiet and unknown...

Please all here in Poet Corner do know how I think well and wish well as you have been part of my family for some time now right here in our corner of love… Happy Holidays and best wishes...
Hope none of you were affected by the Sandy Storm as it hit hard…
