Poetry


  • On my way to the  Children's Garden, I crossed a little bridge besides a wooded pond.
    It was very peaceful there. 
    As I walked through the garden I spotted some pretty little butterflie's and I started trying to get some pictures of them. I managed to catch this one atop a flower.
    This garden had many lovley flowers, but I found this one especially interesting so I took it's pi...

  • I love to go to the zoo...

    Sunday, August 23, 2009

    One of the most enjoyable day trips I love to take is to grab my digital camera
    and go to the zoo.  These pictures I took over this past weekend at the
    Point Defiance Zoo.
    Imagine my surprise when I looked at the photo and saw what I
    snapped. I just love this picture.
    Another great picture that happened by accident. I love the expression
    of the girl looking at this moon jelly fish.
    The Octopus wa...

  • New Poem LXXXVIII

    Monday, May 25, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    This is s poem im working on, this is draft one. any input would be apreciated :)
    She is the nicest girl you will ever meet
    But you will never know her name
    You would never even talk to her
    Because she seemed far too plain
    She stood with a heart as bright as the sun
    But exclusion and isolation clouded her soul
    You could have picked her up and cleared her skies
    But you laughed and heckled her, forcing he...

  • A Poem...

    Saturday, December 27, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story


    Well, Here is a poem that I wrote and I wonted to share it with my friends....
    The name of it is Living with Cancer...It kinda sums it all up for me...
    " LIVING WITH CANCER...."
    Being diagnosed with cancer,
    Has made me live with fear in my heart.
    Every ache and pain fills me with terror.
    I've watched many other people die this way.
    The end is not a pretty sight ...
    I often wonder will I be ...

  • ALONG THE WATER FRONT
    Waves smacking the rocks
    Gulls flying high above me
    Drift wood scattered fro
    Foam and weeds  blanket
    Salt the taste of breezy air
    Clouds float high above
    I walk slowly on
    Take the scene in as I go
    Along water's edge
    Boats away from shore
    Sails luffing as they change course
    Then take up the wind
    My dog besides me
    We walk further the beach
    The suns warmth on us
    At a bench we stop
    To r...

  • Dream Catcher

    Saturday, August 8, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    This past week my art therapy group worked on making dream catchers. We used instructions from a website called nativetech.org. The project though it looks intricate was actually not too dificult to pick up. We added beads in the web to symbolize the things we wanted to catch in the web.  Either the bad things we wanted to stay out of our dreams or the good things we wanted to focus our drea...

  • Three Poems I Wrote

    Monday, July 20, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    I wrote three poems last night and thought I'd share them.
    Defected
    I am defected,
    Different,
    Incapable
    Of ordinary tasks.
    I can't cry.
    I attended the viewing,
    Funeral,
    And burial
    Of someone I'd grown up with.
    I was completely
    Devoid
    Of tears.
    I have flashbacks,
    Horrible ones,
    With tremendous pain.
    My eyes are dry as a desert.
    Nightmares
    That I wake from,
    Screaming,
    Don't call up a...

  • Poem XCII

    Monday, June 29, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Play your harp little Angel
    But it cant help you at all
    You're about to find out the pains of earth
    When heaven gives out, prepare for the fall
    Play your harp little Angel
    But it wont help you in the least
    What will you do to save yourself
    When even music can not tame the beast
    Play your harp little Angel
    But its hard when the beast is upon you
    Your wings broken and your harp shattered
    So now what shall...

  • More Poems I Wrote

    Wednesday, July 22, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    All three of these I wrote three years ago.
    The Lone Tree
    a tree
    stands alone
    on almost barren ground.
    the tree
    tries
    to be strong
    but won't last
    forever.
    hail and stinging sleet
    assault it,
    rains pound it,
    the sun constantly
    looking down
    on it.
    when lightning strikes,
    it bursts into flames,
    each time leaving it
    a little
    worse off.
    under this abuse,
    its branches get broken,
    its being burnt.
    it's been burned time...
