lilygold76 Poetry (13)

The days are swiftly hastening
The shadows softly fall
I seem to hear the shepherd calling
From way beyond the wall
He has come to fetch the ill ewe
That lies so forlorn
To unite her with her lamb
She lost,a decade or so ago,
She has been pining for her,
Life for her has never been the same,
The ewe has now to bid goodbye
To all she knew, when on earthly meadows
She did graze,
The shepherd will pick her up
tenderly in His arms
And carry her safely o'er
And lay her gently beside her lamb
She had longed so dearly for;
Now Forever to abide;
No more heartache or pain,
No more tears will be shed,
For the place where He will lay her down
There will be peace and eternal rest,
Beside her precious lamb.

My soul is eagerly awaiting to take its flight
To the land beyond the sunset
Where my loved ones await my arrival
At the pearly gate
With outstretched arms,
There will be no more pain
Nor heartache or tears
Sleepless nights will be
Perpetual rest.
- Your personal message will appear here -

Sailing in the ocean of my dreams
Each night I come to you sweet child
Sharing precious moments with you
And when dawn breaks
I awake and in my room again
In a land across the sea from you.

Hearts Throb.
Pensive thoughts,vacant dreams
No memories
Blown away like fallen leaves
to lie dead and forgotten
Selfishness,ego of another
Strikes at the penury of the heart
Depriving her freedom
Keeping her tethered to vows
While she wilts day by day.

About this poem:
About a friend who suffers silently.

My baby left on a journey
To a haven beyond the stars,
She is quietly resting
From this world's pain & tears,
God looked down from heaven
And saw your tired face
He lifted you so gently
And took you to paradise to rest;
Though it shattered my soul to lose you
But you did not go alone
Cause part of me went with you
The day God called you to His blessed home;
I wish I could see you once more
I know its not possible,
But I will meet you soon,my baby,
Never to be parted again;
God can see how much I miss you,
What pain I go through each day
The tears I have shed all these years
Since you went away.

N New Year ahead of us
E Ever thought what to do,
W We must bury the past,ring in the new.
Y Year full of hopes to come true
E Evening rolls into night
A All celebrate to see the old year out
R Rallying round a bonfire,singing,dancing.


Here's to a wonderful New Year All CS poets, hope all your dreams do come true.

Flapping growing tired
Freedom is invisible
Sits so forlorn,Caged

A heart full of love
given: expecting the same
but waiting in vain

CHRISTMAS ( Wishing all the lovely Poets on CS)

C is for the Christ Child lying swaddled on hay,
H is for the Happiness His birth brought on this day,
R is for Redeemer who came to save the world,
I is for Immanuel,"God with Us," always,
S is for the Shepherds who came to worship him,
T is Tidings of joy the angel brought to them,
M is for His Mother Mary, the handmaid of the Lord,
A is for Adoration by the three wise men from the East,
S is our Savior so peacefully asleep.

About this poem:
Thoughts on Christ's birth.

Cold,silent dusk
Gold tints west,
Birds fly to rest.

Steaming broth
Warms the insides
Cosy evening fire burns.

Nostalgia takes over,
Sweet & bitter plays
The scenes on blank wall

Wintry days,silence reigns
Brings to mind
Sweetness or sadness.

Golden threads of memory of you
Keep running through my mind,
Thinking of the times we shared
Keeps you still alive within my heart

Everyday I miss your smile
Though I see it in a frame
But no one ever can replace
The sweetness and comfort it brought;

My heart still bleeds in silence
Silent tears still flow
What it was to lose you my baby
Only I ever know.

Losing you was unbearable
And still it is the same,
I keeping searching for answers
That no one but God can explain;

Your Memory is a beacon
That guides me through this lonely life
It is a precious keepsake
Embedded in my heart.

Death is a mystery,it tears loved ones apart,
But one thing I know for sure
God has you in his arms,
I have you in my heart.

I know we'll meet again someday,somewhere
Beyond the blue,
Till then I'll find the strength
To live through each lonely day.
