  • my daughter poem

    Wednesday, May 28, 2008

     
    MY DAUGHTER POEM   
    in the cluttered chaos
    of a busy city
    kissed by God
    i conceived
    all by myself
    unlike
    the Virgin Mary
    a little poem
    named maia
    girl-child maia
    momma's baby madonna
    blue eyed girl
    with untamed hair
    untempered spirit
    in her bones
    inside her eyes
    willful child
    that a mother
    is afraid for
    but proud of
    i nursed her
    greedy guppy mouth
    she
    starving to get going
    on this road
    called lif...

    Roses are red

  • Angel Wings and Butterflies...

    Friday, September 26, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story


    Angel Wings and Butterflies
    Spread your Angel wings and fly through the skies
    Dance swiftly across the earth like butterflies
    Keep giving tenderness to the lives you touch
    Who knew one special soul could do so much
    My heart is weak and on the mend
    But in you I’ve found a friend
    Whose guidance will help me to new limits and reach the skies
    You make me melt with those pouty lips and puppy dog eyes
    Whe...

  • Courage to face tomorrow

    Friday, October 3, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

     
    Courage is admitting that you’re afraid and facing that fear directly.
    It’s being strong enough to ask for help and humble enough to accept it. Courage is standing up for what you believe in without worrying about the opinions of others.
    It’s following your own heart, living your own life,
    and settling for nothing less than the best for yourself.
    Courage is daring to take a f...

  • Prayers

    Saturday, October 11, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story


    I
    C stands for concentrate. The first word in the model prayer is “Father.” Almighty God says that His children are to go to Him and call Him Father. We are to concentrate on Him as God, Father, His nature, His character, His dominion, His omnipresence. That’s the first ingredient.
    H stands for hallowed. “Hallowed be Your name.” The name of God is not to be used in a ...

  • found this poem thought u all might relate to it

    Saturday, October 18, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    It is called the knowing. I can relate to it myself. I hope that u all like it too.
    Piece by piece i peel away,the calloused layers of emotion which i have built up over the years.
    Slowly,and gently,i remove my masks which hides me from the world,exposing me to the light, forcing me to trust you.
    One by one,I drop the screens I hold before my mind. Until finally i stand before you in naked truth,and...

  • End of Mankind...

    Saturday, January 31, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    End of Mankind
    We don't care
    we don't share
    It's all about greed
    instead of need
    The media lies
    it's satan's disguise
    I'm tellin ya friend
    it's gonna be the end
    Time for destruction
    end of mankind
    You can't fathom
    what goes on in my mind
    Get your bibles out tonight
    hold your loved ones tight
    Where will you be
    when he comes looking for thee
    Another president
    in a long line
    Bought by ...

  • Perfectly Imbalanced...

    Thursday, February 5, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Perfectly Imbalanced
    I'm a lover and I'm a fighter
    I'm conservative, but I'm liberal too
    I will agree & disagree with you
    Sometimes hot, sometimes cold
    Never young, never old
    Perfectly Imbalanced
    in so many ways
    happiness and sadness on my face
    found in the nights, lost in the days
    there are dreams I chase
    I'm in a perfectly imbalanced place
    Things are black, others are white
    somtimes...

  •  
    THE BEACON LIGHT
    by Dan Carlson
    Just as the ship that breaks the waves through a cold and windswept night,
    The jagged reefs and shoals we brave in search of the Beacon light.
    From the bow and from the crows nest, through the fog and through the gales,
    At the rudder I can take no rest as the weather attacks our sails.
    My hands grip tight the wooden wheel, my knees now weak and shaking,
    Each onslaug...
