Beginnings and endings

Thanks CG.... we do owe all our poetic fun time to you!! YAY Earth so blue, from outer space Home to all the human race I pray each day for Peace on Earth Wait patiently for Spiritual Birth Turn from the dark, look toward the joy, It?s there? just look? and you will find A smile, a hand? it?s someone kind Keep Hope and Faith in your back pocket Keep some Love inside your locket The rest of Love please pass it on Love Peace Compassion is now in fashion ~Aloha to all~

(it is inspiring, isn't it ) Fashion shows, world of glitter and glamour Looking for beauty at the outside of our skin A world alas deaf for the clamor True beauty can only be found within

Within us and without us... Whatever does that mean? Synonymous with the Tide, It Rises and Falls, By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. (meh? Not so poetic today...but The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls is my favorite poem *ever*) ( ops
-
(hi everyone...not feeling poetic either, but had a 'thought.' yes, thankyou CG! ) Falls into my outstretched arms The Bear with gentle kind ways And charm, Having waited so very long How could I not whisper, 'I do love you too.' To say otherwise would simply be untrue.
-
Untrue is the lie I told, It really was his fault, I slapped his arm, too, Violent and gross, Simply rude. (See Because Thread for reference...)
-
Rude seems to walk alone In the embrace of the whisper, Violent to look without seeing And coward to lie in moan.
-
Moan of pain when child is born During labour very hard Child cries out, feeling left forlorn Separated from his mother?s guard But before there is true mourn They ?re reunited heart by heart

That was very beautiful wilhamina.... a beautiful picture in words Heart is the temple Where Love does reside Heart is the beauty Of which you can?t hide Heart is the home Within lies the truth Heart is the fountain Of caring and giving Heart is the soul Who sings loud and clear Heart is the center Of living and being
-
Being as light as a feather Laying in a field of heather My soul floats up to the stars Travelling in the Divine Loop Here there is no Time Male and female energies intertwine.
-
Intertwine is what they will do Like molecules in DNA The male and female energies Will stand together day by day No longer torn apart by fear No longer can fear divide them They will create a better world Remembering from where we stem
-
(I can't resist the temptation to join the others to compliment your poetry, wilhamina ) Stem of the dark leaf Is made of gold As it falls down To be picked up By soft hands Of the spring breeze.

(Thank you, Kiriwana. You just painted a beautiful picture yourself. This is why I love this thread: the interaction brings out the best of all of us.) Breeze touching me gently Strolling across the sand Dabbling my feet in the sea The sound of the waves The smell in the air Enjoying it intently
-
Intently he watches the ducks on the pond The old black lab sits on the shore He can swim no more The hourglass of his Life is running low Yet the sparkle in his eyes has not diminished For his earthly existence is not finished The same spark of Life will live on forever And return.
-
(that was beautiful, kittay, so touching) Return and leave in the circle of life We live and we die and yet we survive For there is more to it than meets the eye We say hello and we say goodbye And yet we carry in our heart The notion that we will never part For this is how life once begun We are all one

Hey Kittay.... I loved your poem.... it brought back beautiful memories of my Black Lab.... he did have the sparkle in his eye til the end...very nice....thanks One sweet song on the radio Has a haunting melody Dancing with abandon across the floor All the cares flown out the door Music sweet music is the simple gift Unlocks the soul inside, gives us all a lift Music it sets my heart and soul free To where it always wants to be Enchanting and beckoning, to a happy place inside, From the music, I can never hide Universal pleasure The hearts golden treasure
-
The treasure inside small black dots That are living among lines Makes me live or die. The magic they do in babies' cots While the evening of life dines Makes me proud and cry.
-
Cry out loud Share your cry With the world Twist and shout Having thy Hose unfurled High in the cloud Up in the sky Music twirled

(love2travel, wilhamina, kiriwana, thanks glad you liked the black lab one. it was really meant for all animals though. I am enjoying this thread very much and you are all so talented and very inspiring. ) Twirled the colours in the sky Light refracted to the crystal eye Sun Dogs appear so bright Warriors of the Rainbow United ignite.

Kiriwana....saw a stem of a dark leaf made of gold today...thought of your poem wilhamina you are right....this thread is very inspiring... I love it! Ignite the bonfire on Samhain?s Night Haunting melody of mythic days Round a fire they gather to listen Dancing shadows flicker, shimmer High above the moon lies watching Musical notes float out in space Soft the glow is seen below Ancient secrets in the glimmer Of the dawn?
-
(I love reading all these gems ) Dawn, breaking of day First wavering rays of sun?s light Still in the place in between Dreams fading away At the end of the night Birds starting to spleen Whistling their tune As a goodbye to the moon And a hello to the sun A new day has begun
