Beginnings and endings
-
(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
-
Begin a novel in a fresh book The sound of pen writing on paper Indents of writing on the next page No looking back now Make no mistake with pen Raw, uncut thoughts in ink imprinted Writing hours on end Seeing no reason to put it down Type the first word on a typewriter Sound of the keys click-clacking Don't look back or you'll crash Look back and you start all over This is NaNoWriMo A month of social abandonment 30 days that fly away from the nest 50,000 words have replaced the days
-
Days I thought we'd share together The ruby-throated hummingbird Prefers to fly to warmer weather Tropical climes with lush vegetation Far he flys across the ocean 'Free As A Bird!'
-
(hope you are doing fine with the NaNoWriMo, AngryNinja224 and Crossover Genius) Bird seemingly free to go where he wishes Yet drive by instinct to do what he must Do we differ from him when we make our choices Do we base them on instinct or dare we to trust Are we driven by fear Or can we hear What our inner voice tells us to do Do we dare to be true
-
(@wilhamina: thanks, wilhamina. I'm certainly having fun with it! Enjoying the wide-eyed expressions when I tell about it more than I ought to, though.) True, he thought, he could never be, Though, she hoped, he could see, That if some faith were poured upon, Then love will shine, as the sun.
-
Sun ain?t shining here today Clouds are covering the sky Rain is drizzling, everything?s gray Please wind have these clouds fly by I need a little sun and warmth and light To get me safely through the night
-
Wihamena, it has been raining here too....sending you a little sunshine Night is dark and drizzling grey, The soul awaits a better day, Here one comes just for you Hope it helps to get you through Sun ablaze a brilliant hue, Sunbeams?golden rays Happy days?.. Laughter floats, the sound Delight?Giggling chortle Joyful days?.. Enjoyment of family, the feeling Rejoicing?.Hands embracing Devoted days?..
-
(Wilhamina, that was beautiful. Such pictures in my mind! And, of course, love2travel, you match her poem for poem every time!) Days whittle away, I wished he could stay, The moonbeams carry him off, The wind begins to cough. Disappearing light, Soul taken flight, Such a far travel, Until he's a lovely angel.
-
Thank you both for the warmth, love2travel and Crossover Genius Angel, bearer, bringer of light Lucifer?s name meaning the same Things aren?t as black and white As we think, both carry the flame Of Love We divide everything, in wrong and in right And because of that, we continue to fight It?s us against them, they?re wrong and we?re right They are the devil and we are the light Of love But perhaps we are wrong Fight should come to an end It lasted too long Let us embrace my friend With Love

Kiriwana....saw a stem of a dark leaf made of gold today...thought of your poem
I'm very pleased ops: Angel talks When your words Ring at the time And bright rocks Roll down the hill, Make dust from lime.

Lime, bittersweet Like life My cat just had a treat A blackbird lost its life My vision is blurred Travel light little bird

A do over...
