I Miss You
I have no words today, No clever rhyme, No metaphor or simile, To expose something hidden, but true; I have no smart word play Or enchanting line, All I have, today, is me Saying "darling, I miss you". Sign in to see full entry.

Breathe
Breathe, let the fires of rage burn out And the irritation pass as I exhale. Just breathe, don't rant, don't shout Or let cruel instinct prevail, Just slowly inhale. Breathe out the anger, out the fear And make room for something better Let your heart and mind become clear Give up the cage and... Sign in to see full entry.

Snow
My world is blanketed in cloud fluff, Thickly layered by fragments of the tender sky Which have drifted from homes high above To make my world more beautiful for a while. This soft display, more than enough To recall puerile days when this season and I Were better friends, restores forgotten love As... Sign in to see full entry.

The Protest
Step by step, stride by stride We walk for what we believe in, We stand for our rights, our freedom To say "this is not right". Paragons of resolve and pride We may not be achieving Our goals but at least everyone can see them And give thought to our plight. We don't demand that you agree We only... Sign in to see full entry.

Your Tune
Find your tune and let it take you Out of the moment, away from fear And pain and into the wonder of your dance. Find your song and sing it your way Unconcerned by what you ought to do Or by who might judge what they hear. Find yourself and take the chance To be who you want to be today Regardless...

Last Words
Let me samba with disaster, Or, perhaps, salsa with doom Undaunted and unafraid Of what might go wrong, Let our unfettered laughter Strike merry echoes from the room And bring joyous light into the darkest shade. Let me not grimly prolong A sad and meagre span By eking it out day by day, Playing it... Sign in to see full entry.

The Music Begins
He dances, out of time, To a tune he cannot hear And a dance he's never seen But has only been told of. He shuffles his imagined line A gentle, graceful pioneer Of the dance that should have been To the music of his love, And yet as he performs his hopeful, sultry sway Quietly behind him, the music...

The Lonely Piano
How lonely the piano sounds When all the orchestra has gone, Without the chuckle of the drum When tender strings and laughing horns Are nowhere to be found And yet the piano carries on. Knowing that is the only one, The piano sings alone, forlorn, Making such sad beauty as it can make In memory of... Sign in to see full entry.

Winter Dances
Winter dances at the window; Minuettes of snow and ice, Or waltzes of a bitter breeze To dazzle and enchant. Winter dances as the wind blows A soft chaotic melody to entice Me to join its final frigid tease But I shan't. For here I have a summer tune, A song of gentle winds and tender skies, Of warm...

Misty Morning
Morning, like a virgin bride, Blushes behind her muslin veil And shyly tiptoes into day. Behind the last breath of night, she hides, It's gentle mists conceal detail And leave subtle beauty on display With which to greet the dancing eyes That see her efforts and delight In her bashful attire.
