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

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! |

Recaptured
Long ago you told me we're through Your heart recaptured by an old view Still your eyes speak to me Not what you say but what I see Your need to follow your heart understood I wouldn't try to change it if I could I'll take each day and cherish our time Knowing any minute it could stop on a dime Losing you not to another soul Hoping recaptured makes you whole I'll not regret a moment with you Having you in my life was a gift come true

This is an old one I thought I'd share from 2006
Make It Real Shed that skin you hide Open up, show your pride Walk out into the light Everything will be all right Grab hold of the old Forget what you were told Reach out for today Wash the rest away Believe in what you feel It has to be real Let go of the pain It brings thunder and rain Push away your fear Stand up and cheer Be who you are A bright shining star

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.

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
