Part Of Me...My Poetry
I was trying to decide if I wanted to put any of my old poems up and decided against it. Many of you have read them elsewhere, anyhow. It's been a long while since I've actually wanted to sit and write. So, I'll start slow and see if it comes back to me.
I'm going to start out with an Ode to a fur baby we had to have put down the day after Christmas and see where I go from there, so hang with me. Ode To Silver I'm no good at good bye Always makes me cry One more day one more hour Much love I will shower Closed eyes I see your face Knowing you must find your place Getting ready for the worst Thinking my heart will burst What you say you have to go Fond memories inside me will grow My little fur baby hold on tight You'll be lifted soon to another site Suffer no more as you cross that bridge Papa Boo waits for you on the ridge Always remember the times we shared How much you were loved and how much I cared Peace be with you go and rest You were so sweet one of the best |
I Yesterday I rode a cloud Above the world feeling proud Today I sit in dirt A different day and I hurt Yesterday I smiled wide Bottled up was so much pride Today I frown in pain Tears that flow like rain Yesterday I saw your face It was a happier time and place Today a shadows cast Helps me remember the past Yesterday I had true love Flying high like a little white dove Today I feel humbled Yet one more time I've fumbled |
Knowing Silently I suffer in pain Tears flowing without refrain Never letting others know They can't see what I don't show Sitting with pen I write This being my only fight Once was a time I was strong Shrug things off and move along Feelings never worn on sleeve Knowing what not to believe As I age I'm feeling weak In my heart it does sneak Always trying to be kind Unlike others wanting to be blind Give me strength to move along I wasn't the only one wrong Taking each day one by one Staying friends when it's all done Knowing there is hope for tomorrow Living again when there's no more sorrow |
True Blue You
Long ago and far away You came to me on a beautiful day I wasn't looking when you took my hand You led me to this magical land Easy you made it to embrace Joy and love in a happy place Every time I would frown You'd pick me up from being down I'd trip or stumble you'd still be there Showing me how much you care This last year has taken it's toll Something got lost or maybe stole Trying hard to get it back Thinking I don't have the knack Communication not as strong Knowing we were both wrong Wishing it could be as good As those days when we both understood Hoping for once to get it right Take away darkness and see the light Cannot change what is the past All I can give you is love to last If you can no longer be my wife You'll always have a friend for life No one before has been like you Someone I can trust and always true blue |

Your words run deep with much pain, wishing better days ahead for you. Tis good to see you write once again |

Thank you and it's so nice seeing you on this site. Looking forward to when you begin to post your writings. |
Baby Steps Today I take back me Wandering around I'm free Tomorrow I may be lost But at what cost Some days sad creeps in I don't want it to win Constant struggle to survive But I'm alive Living on the edge Making myself pledge Relearning what I know Taking each day slow Those baby steps I need So I won't mentally bleed No more will I fall Or beat my head against a wall |
To Her (with respect) Remembering our first embrace And how fast my heart did race The happiness in your eyes All the love and not the lies Our first long lingering kiss Something about you I miss Those once were the days Daydreaming I count the ways I guess there was a reason You were only a season A lifetime filled with thought Is what having you brought Laughter love and pain I'd do it again without refrain Future happiness I hope you find As what you seek fills your mind Staying true to your soul Is what keeps one whole Always I'll be here To lend a helpful ear |
Emotional Ride
Emotional rollercoaster I ride Some days it takes my pride Feeling the low I reach To myself I preach Lift me up and rise But to what guise Slow and silent pain creeps in All of a sudden tears begin Looking for the shut off switch I start to twitch Shake it off get through the day Tomorrow will be better I pray Been through this before Should've saw it walk in the door Emotions I can't show Something needed to grow Single road for me Perhaps the best place to be |
Seems my poetry has been pretty darn dark lately. I came across some of my old poetry while going through a box and thought I'd share a little of it here. For those of you that never read any of it before, here's some that won't be dark and dreary.
The Pervy Mind Ever do it on a boat In the water as you float A river bank in full view No time to think it through May be better to sink While you're on the brink Slowly reel it in By far it's not a sin Excited and much fun This little deed is done For the dirty pervy mind I hope you did not find Sex is not what this is about Now I know you're gonna pout This little poem is about fishing No matter what you're wishing Keep those thoughts inside your head You're better off instead Now that I made your day Smile be happy and go play |
Make Believe Slam bam ma'am Thank you for the jam A little uptight You'll be all right We haven't met But I make you wet Lustful little grin How long has it been Back up against the wall Happy to give you my all Knees getting weak You're reaching your peak Fall to the floor I'll help you score I hear that moan And now this groan I watch you shout As you let it all out Don't leave you yet And you're glad we met One more time around While we're on the ground Happy to fill that need Is how I will plead Your leg around my shoulder My tongue is getting bolder Delving all about Once again you shout I found that secret place Makes your little heart race Your face is fully flush You enjoyed the rush You ask me can I stay Wouldn't have it any other way |
Woman Woman walking past me Long dark hair I see With a wink and a smile I turn and stare a while That was all it took As she felt my look Woman walking back my way I stand there and silently pray Hoping she will speak to me Tongue twisted I do flee Will my words come out right Or will I stand a silly sight Woman stands there face to face Hands me the address to her place She's someone I already knew I stood once more admiring the view She shouts to me dinner's at eight And also says to not be late Woman stands there at the door Beautiful dress I want to roar Soulful eyes make me think As our glasses we clink To the future we toast Thinking she is the most |
I must say you write very beautiful words, I write poems but nothing as good as this.

Thank you very much. I just write what I feel at the time I decide to sit with thoughts and pen in hand. Your own poetry, maybe you don't think it's as good, but perhaps others will. I used to feel the same way and one day, just decided to share. |
Daydream With Me
Skinny dippin' secluded beach Today you say you want to teach Grab my hand and pull me along All the time humming a song Seductive smile you look at me Ask me to get on bended knee In front of me you spread a leg Hoping now I won't have to beg You take my hand and guide the way This is how you want to play I grab your ass and pull you near You may guide but I get to steer Pushing fingers in and out Working my hand all about Gazing up I see your face Looks like you're lost in space Knowing you can't stand much longer Moans and panting is growing stronger I am still on bended knee Lay you on back legs over me My tongue touches your clit Right spot I must have hit Never heard you shout so loud Makes me feel kind of proud The next time you may want to teach Lets do it at home and not on a beach Maybe then I just might learn And be the one to get a turn |
The One
Where can she be A lady just for me The one that looks inside Not ever afraid to confide The one that won't let go No matter what you show The one that sees you cry Knowing how much you try The one that makes you smile For more than just a while The one to take your heart And never want to part The one to stay by your side Who is always filled with pride Where can she be This lady just for me |
Every Day Every day I think of you A dream that never came true A chance I once had How it went so very bad Every day I sit and pray Wonder if you'll come my way Wishful thinking I can find It's always been inside my mind Every day my pain does ease No more do I have to freeze Keeping every happy thought All the joy you once brought Every day I worry for you Hoping you can make it through Build that life you talk about You can do it without a doubt Every day is just a day Nothing more for me to say Go to work come home and think Taken away in just one blink Every day I still love you My heart doesn't know what to do It hangs on and can't let go Sometimes I wish it didn't show Every day you wake with me First thing I always see Even if you're just a thought Morning happiness you brought |
Before When
Taking this moment before it passes away Wanting to know it before it becomes yesterday Before all the tears And all the fears When peaceful happy brought a smile One that lasted over many a mile When laughter was shared by two And beauty was still brand new Before innocence was lost And heartache was the cost Wondering where did it go And can it ever come back to show Will yesterday become a stat Is tomorrow all gone like that When will a future I see Be ready for more than me |
Random Thoughts
Slip and slide Side by side Oil in play Have my way Hands set firm Watch her squirm Set the pace Not a Race On the floor Thru the door Against a wall In the hall Try the tub You be sub Go to bed Have sex instead Makes me sleep Without a peep Good morning start Before we part In the shower Feel the power See you smile Content for awhile Gives a kiss You I'll miss Be back later Thoughts I savor |
This World If this world were a fairy tale No one in it would ever be frail If this world was make believe Tons of gold we'd all receive If this world was a perfect place Food a plenty a table would grace If this world had a happy gate We'd all walk through and never hate If this world never went to war Peace would walk through every door If this world should ever end Forever love is what I'd send |
From your mouth to Great Spirit
BEAUTIFUL Quote:

This is one I posted in 9 words a few months back Thought I'd repost it here, too absolute present accounted front page news deliberate choices today CHOICES We all have choices to make One wrong move and you break Present and accounted for Absolute pressure is in store What you know isn't always true Yesterday love, today you're through Not all news is good Miscommunication deliberate, misunderstood Another page in this life Filled with sadness and with strife Smiling up front, dying inside No more trying to confide Day to day living with hope Finding it hard at times to cope Never let it take your pride In your heart it should reside Make the choice that's right for you Even if it means you're through |
All My Years
All these weathered tears From all my years Was worth the pain That they did rain Many lessons I learned Had some concerned Hard knocks I took While others just look Like being a true friend What kind of message did they send Alive and breathing I stand Once in a while a helping hand With one regret And nary a fret I embrace my tears From all my years |
Joyful Spring
Spring is blooming all around Birds chirping, hear their sound Dark mornings becoming light Temperatures rising, sheer delight Tilling soil and planting seeds Gardening starts, the pulling of weeds Lawns mowed, the smell of cut grass Backyard mechanics with cans of gas Outside chores once packed away Back again so we could play The wonderful smell of bar b que grills Indoor cats on window sills Small children building a fort Porch sitting becomes a sport Dogs barking near and far Night time falls, gaze at a star Anticipating what summer will bring As we wind down from a joyful spring |
This one is old, but holds a special place in my heart, so I thought I'd share it here.
Shadows Dancing Shadows dancing on the wall One short, the other tall Two lovers in candle light Their bodies seem to take flight Shadows dancing on the floor As they move towards the door Against the wall, a soft embrace Two hearts begin to race Shadows dancing everywhere As the two begin that stare Suddenly four lips do meet Both of them can feel the heat Shadows dancing on the bed No words are ever said Enjoying each others view Sweetest night they ever knew |
More old to share I never did put a title to this one Build me up, don't let me down Make me smile, don't let me frown Show me strength, when I am weak Hold me tight, when things look bleak Stay with me, let time stand still Laugh with me, give me a thrill Dance with me, I'll lead the way Walk with me, when skies are gray Look to me, to see you through Talk to me, when you feel blue Run to me, when things go wrong Come to me, where you belong |
Remembering the days when writing flowed easily Beautiful Lady Her beauty shines through In everything she can do A forgiving, trusting soul Only wanting to be whole She had given her all Only to take a fall Hurting deep inside Losing all her pride Wanting back what she had This woman that made her sad Then came the day That woman came her way Telling of her pain With nothing left to gain Beautiful lady reaching out It's what she's all about Holding her while she cries Listening to her sighs Beautiful lady stays all night Understands her inward fight Never once does she go away She decides, with this woman she will stay |
Last one I'll share today
Beyond Tomorrow Look beyond the moon and sun After all is said and done Hearts together that beat apart That's a good place to start Knowing each other much to well Many stories still to tell Getting deep inside the soul Being together complete and whole Wanting all that you can give Waiting anxiously to begin to live Wondering what lies ahead Like an open book that's never read All your wishes will come true All your hopes to never be blue Everything you want comes your way Open your eyes to a brighter day |
This is a poem I wrote years ago, just after my mom passed away.
I'd like to share it with all of you today A Mothers Love Mothers are a special breed They fill a childs every need Leading the way with tender loving care A gift that only mothers can share Crying with a scraped up knee Child comes running with a plea Fix it mom so I can play With my friends I want to stay Teenage years filled with growing pain A mother that's almost going insane Asking mom, can I borrow the car I promise mom, I won't go far Off to college to get a degree A mothers tears is what I see Sad to see the child go away Happy to know she led the way |
Making Changes A heart cannot be played like a toy It brings happiness and so much joy A broken heart brings nothing but pain A heavy load with emotional strain We all have problems we choose to carry We try our best and can't seem to bury The memories haunt us every waking day We try to let go and they want to stay Making changes must come from within Reach down deep and you could win All the riches that lie so near Someone to take away all your fear Loving again is not easy to do Trust your heart to see you through Believe in yourself to get it right Soon you'll revel in sheer delight |
The Almighty I walk with Him everyday I listen to what He has to say He leads me where I need to go He has always been there to help me grow He brings me wisdom when I am weak He brings me happiness when things look bleak He helps me make it through the night He makes all my mornings very bright He showed me how to love when I couldn't He made me stop to think when I wouldn't I am His to take whenever need be I will follow Him and be set free |
As I eat some of the wrods in my OP, I realized sharing the old is as good as sharing the new.
I find rereading and posting some of my old poetry has been very therapeutic for me. Makes me remember who I was and who I can continue to be. |
Last night when I left the computer, I had a strange feeling about a friend. The more I thought about it, the more I thought I should grab my pad and pen......so, I did.
This was the results of my thoughts in verse Friend All the pain you hold From stories never told The tears you've never shed Scared your face may be read The lonely restless nights From all your inward fights Reaching out to no one Burning from that hot sun Melting slowly in the sand If you'll only grab that hand Trust you have a true friend With always an ear to lend Someone else to hold your pain And the tears that you refrain To ease your beautiful soul While you grow back into whole |
Walk On
When I walk through that door And not a day before Do not cry for me As I am finally free There will be no more pain And no longer will I complain Life has been hard but good Sometimes a bit misunderstood Find the beauty in what was And push on because You have today Tomorrow find your way The strength I know you possess In all that you caress Be that driving force And steer your own course Make your future bright For I have taken flight Smiling from above While soaring like a dove |
Quote:
I love all your stuff sweetie, but this one........... this one spoke to me. it's beautiful- thank you for sharing it. |
Quote:
You know Ms E, it's funny you posted to this particular poem. It's an old one and one that you've read before. This poem is what started our friendship online back in '05. I believe you said something similar back then. Thank you for being one of the very best online friends I've ever had. |
Quote:
I knew there was something particular about that writing.... and you're right, it spoke to me then too- you never have to thank me for something I give so willingly, it's always been my pleasure and an honor to be part of your world. I can't wait for Little Rock! |
No One No one hears me at all Battered broken as I fall Contemplating my next move Empty with nothing to prove No one to miss me when I go Dull dingy without a glow Thoughts inside don't go away Once was a time they didn't stay No one cares how I really feel Lost and alone I tried to heal Two steps forward one step back Feeling fragile I can crack No one sees my shattered look Hidden away in my little nook Outside appearance not always right The pain in me kept out of sight No one bothers when I cry Never to share the reason why Every day looks more bleak Not understanding the feeling of weak No one gets the real me Good bad or ugly to be set free How many times can one lose Before nothing is left of the fuse |
Hands Raised Hands raised to heaven I pray For the sick to heal and stay For the family broken in two Because they know not what else to do Hands raised to heaven I pray So throw away animals find a way Keep them alive with shelter and food Unknown to us some are feeding a brood Hands raised to heaven I pray For peace love and understanding each day Keeping faith and hope for all in need Teaching others how to follow my lead Hands raised to heaven I pray Freedom for all without death to pay For the child that needs a meal So they don't have to go out and steal Hands raised to heaven I pray For the voice I have and the things I say For my freedom of speech came at a cost I'll never forget all the lives that were lost |
Quote:
I'm a mother and I raised my sons - pretty much on my own. So when I see someone pay tribute to their mother - for all the things we do, our strength, our willingness to love our children in spite of their successes or mistakes in life, it brings a smile to my heart! My mother and I, for a longer period of time that I care to openly share about, once did not have a healthy relationship. But we are closer now, as time has moved on and she is a pillar of strength and hope to me. She's 70 now and might not be around for too much longer.... I do all I can to convey how much I love her and forgive her for her frailties (sp?) in life. Thanks for writing your poetry about her and leaving it here! |
