Rubber Ducky Poetry Hour

This virtual space
To whom does it belong
To the old or the new
Or those in-between

Yes we have been here a rather long time
And yes they just invaded
Showing no respect for any
Or maybe just not understanding our unspoken rules

Maybe education is the name of the game
Teach them with patience
Of what this site has to offer
Give them time to settle in

Everyone starts somewhere
Nobody knows everything
So open your mind
And open your heart

And just maybe make a new friend or two
Just give them some time
To learn the new ways
And forget their old ways

Wicked witch of the west am I
Though I live in the Midwest
Wicked more like misunderstood
My pagan ways confuse thee

Let my try to explain my simple ways
I am a lover of life and light
No matter who you are
I am more then willing to give a helping hand

I do not sacrifice life
I do not perform curses
I do not create spells
To make people do things against their will

All life be it animal, plant, or human should be respected
Give thanks for what the Mother has given you
And give back to the Mother as often as possible
What the Mother giveth, so the Mother can taketh away

Live your life as you like
But harm none
But if you do
Make amends as quickly as possible

I hope I have explained my ways sufficiently
Maybe one day your curiosity will lead you to ask more
In the mean time Blessed Be
Merry Met, Merry Part

Oh the sun!
How I have missed the Sun
Over this past winter
I want to feel the yellow warmth upon my face
Warming my body and soul
This winter has gone on far too long in my opinion
Let the Sun shine!
Let the world grow!
And spring forth with life once more!
Oh Goddess bless with an early spring!
Bless us with love, life and laughter
Growing strong under the Mighty Sun!
Like a lover the Sun wraps his warm arms around me.

When is enough enough?
When is calling it quits alright?
This is too much or maybe not enough

Your priorities are skewed
Are we even following the same path anymore?
You took one fork and I took the other

Can we meet up again further down the path?
Or will we keep going opposite directions?
I miss you already

Do you see that I am not by your side?
Or are you hypnotized but what you think is so great?
Is it so great that you are willing to lose me?

I love you and always will
But I cannot walk the path you are on
I cannot watch you either

So please stop and reflect on your current steps
They carry you farther away from me
Is that what you want?

Or do you want to walk this path with me
Remember the path we planned together
Take my hand my darling, lets forge ahead as one.

I know how you feel
Those moments of worthlessness so overwhelming
But your worth is not determined by others
If they recognize you for your awesomeness or not

I know you deny dashing good looks
That is fine with me
Because it means you have no ego I have to contend with
But that doesn't mean you are ugly by any stretch of the imagination.

You are a great friend in so many ways
I cannot count them because I think I would lose count
My friend you are awesome
Don't let anyone take that away from you

Your worth is determined by you and you alone
It is nice to hear thank you and what a great job
But in the end you must acknowledge yourself
And your awesomeness!

I stand there
Watching the people
Laughing and talking with each other
I wonder why I feel so distant from all of this

I walk through the crowd
Moving through them like a little wisp of air
Turning my head back and forth
Searching for something I have lost

The people move around me
Never seeing me
Never touching me
As if I am not there on their plane of existence

Then I see you looking at me
A smile spreading across your face
That smile just for me
That sends tingles through my whole body

I step towards you
A smile on my lips
Like coming to life
Just for you

You take my hand
Like magic I exist
For you and everyone else in the room
For they see me through your eyes

Behold the beauty you perceive before you
And it is true for you and for me
Our love for each other makes us the most beautiful in the world
And forever whole in each others arms.
