Beginnings and endings
-
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...
-
OK new ending Birds of a feather do flock together Taking flight from the dark night, Letting go of earthly tether Flying high toward the light Under foot leaves crackle, crinkle Geese are honking in the sky Autumn colors, golden sparkle Winter's creeping chill is nigh Bountiful harvest Family feast
-
(I liked the Oz ending as well; had to start all over again now ) Fest of the family All gathered together Sinterklaas has arrived In the lands of The Nether Jumping with joy For he has a flair For scattering presents And rhymes everywhere
-
Everywhere thoughts scatter Except to places that should matter A dark void of space The Light has been replaced By betrayal.
-
Betrayal by my friends Our friendship ends Fence my heart Should have done that from the start I will cling to the pain And never will I trust again Everything will be dark and cold No one there to hold No love, no light Like a bad dream in the night And then suddenly I see The only one who is betraying me Is me
-
(I'm really touched by your poetry, wilhamina. How long are you inventing such lovely piece?) Me - the ghost of the glass plate, Part of the world and sinking thoughts. I know your voice - the silver coin And dreams to join.
-
(I agree kiriwana...wilhamina the poem is lovely. Everyone is inspired here. ) Join hands Let's walk to the ancient well Capture the flowing life force Renew ourselves Clean and sweet is the taste No worry of environmental waste We laugh and tell stories to the local folk Under the shade of an oak tree
-
wilhamina: That was a beautiful poem. *tear* *applauds* Tree that stands in the way of our love A trunk made out of stone Leaves crafted from disdain Impossible to cut with a mere chainsaw. [/writersblockgoawaynaoplskthx]
-
Oh Wilhamina.... I too had a tear from your poem.... sending you some today... Chainsaw buzzing in the forest Careful, there?s a bird?s nest? The scent of pine and dirt Sunlight filtered on tall trees Nature?s cathedral Birds singing the hymns Gee, now I'm kind of sorry I missed the Oz poem...
-
back at all of you Hymns of peace, hymns of love Ring out high in the sky From the tree where the white dove And the blackbird Are dazzling my eye Each rejoices Joining of voices I gladly overheard
-
Overheard from above The cooing of love A song from the dove Peace on Earth? Global Harmony Meditate to the sound of.... A World Symphony
-
A symphony waiting to be performed Still sitting on the desk As the orchestra waits It is left untouched The master stows away the papers He takes it with him to the graveyard Sitting by his wife's gravestone He performs the violin solo for her departed soul The conductor cannot wait Constantly nagging at him Yet the master doesn't say a word Infuriated, he mooches off someone else Doesn't matter what he wants Eternally at rest with his wife The striped violin buried with him The symphony tucked away in his pocket They will never part again As he performs it for his lover.
-
Angry Ninja....very very nice indeed Lover of life, Wooer of the heart Never wishing to part Simple gifts of life found... What we yearn for, Dreams and desires You will find, Peace of mind, Love in kind Waiting smiles, Familiar Faces Reflections of Love In their eyes... I can relax Breath? I am home?..
-
(Beautiful AngryNinja224; it seems like the writer's block has gone ) Home at last It has been so long Since I got lost From where I belong I was so blind I couldn?t see They were all there Waiting for me I was so deaf I couldn?t hear Their voices whisper Come here my dear I was so numb I couldn?t feel The love they sent Was there for real But the ice melted And the walls came down I could return I am back in town
-
Wilhamina....how I wish I could write like you...so clearly...so beautiful.... this thread has been getting me back to writing which is so great.... I do love this inspiration..... the challenge .... thanks to everyone here.... Town of which I hope to find Longing for a place to unwind Roaming far across the planet Just haven?t found what?s right yet Searching for a familiar feeling A place that gives my Soul it?s healing Then perhaps, I'd like to keep moving I find the change and challenges soothing Direction unknown A place to call home And so I continue to roam I am the traveler

(writer's block is horrible! hey, I got kinda lost in a phantasy in this one... ops: ) Traveller riding in the mist of the night Covered head to thigh in a woolen cape Moving fast, the ones who hotly pursue She must escape! Faithful black stallion smells her fear Stomps the frost in the forest Faster! Galloping to the meadows near Within the castle walls ahead Her True Love awaits The Code she carries for the human race And to touch her long, silken, black plaits She is safe!
-
Why thank you! ^^ *Puts the Block as a foundation for someone's house* Ok, so today, I got really mad at these middle school girls in school... Safe in her parent's arms Away from the dangers of society Doesn't know what's ahead of her With the wool covering her eyes Preteen girls all in class Caked their face with make up Their Juicy Couture bags on their shoulders Texting their "boyfriend" on their phone While the teacher lectures about lab safety Yet the girl has no idea About the crowd's opinion On normal girls Who don't think they're all that The fashionistas gossip at their lockers While the new girl walks in No makeup, no fancy bag, just a normal kid "Who IS that new kid? She's so pale." The new kid feels embarrassed She isn't like the other girls And the end of the day, she goes home She steals her mother's makeup and clothes The next day, the new kid is nowhere in sight She blends in with everyone else.

'Else Where Is a better place to be.' The tree spoke quite unhurriedly Clear as a bell Soothing waves of the Ocean's swell Call out from distant memory.

(it is very inspiring and challenging in a positive way, isn't it, love2travel; I am not a writer, but this thread just hooked me, so I second your thanks to everyone ) (AngryNinja224, please be you and don't blend in with the rest ) Memory of long lost love Awakened when I met you You were afraid to let it in But I knew my love was true I had to let you go your way While I had to go mine The pain almost put out the flame But it is strong for it is divine I hope this love will heal my soul So once again I will be whole
