Of Better Days

It's coming from all sides, There's no shelter, no rest And no end in sight, Just an endless stream Of things to do. If I cannot run or hide I can only do my best, Get in there and fight, Then, triumphant, dream Of better days, with you. Sign in to see full entry.

Weather I think Of You

The faint sun caresses my face, Soft fingers on my eager skin And I think of you. Strong winds wrap me in their embrace, Nuzzling under my chin And I think of you. Kisses brought by by gentle rains Shower me with tender love And I think of you. As I begin my day again The smallest pleasure is enough... Sign in to see full entry.

She Is Not

She is not my air, Nor my wine Or bread and meat. She is not my fire Neither is she my lair, My triumph or my defeat, She is not my desire, She is infinitely more: She is why I breath and eat, And make life warm and bright, The reason I challenge and strive To be better than I was before. In her... Sign in to see full entry.

I Don't Mind

My world is bleached by snow and sleet, The sun cowers in abject defeat, Jack Frost is gnawing on my feet But it's okay, I don't mind. Gas prices are getting higher, They tell me in my weekly flyer, Now I can't afford to light the fire But it's okay, I don't mind. Such petty problems don't seem... Sign in to see full entry.

Trendy

He watched the smallest ones fit in, Following each manufactured trend And buying what they are told to buy As if they had no other choice. He wondered how long it's been Since he discovered fashion's end And began to learn the reason why We should listen to that inner voice That tells the truths of... Sign in to see full entry.

Counting

I do not like to count, To judge the cost or price Seems to make it easy to miss The value of a thing. Joy is not an amount To be portioned by the slice And sold at a quid per minute's bliss Nor is it a thing money can bring It is a thing we can only feel When we don't think about the cost, To...

A Thought

The whispered touch of winter's sun Passes unnoticed over my face As I, bestilled and thought lost, Ignore the sudden blaze of blue. Practicalities stay undone, Abandoned by the moment's race And unbothered by the future cost As I pause and think of you. Sign in to see full entry.

Sleep

Gentle Slumber murmurs to me, Luring me into her arms, Mumbling how great it would be If I succumbed to her charms. She promises dreams of beauty, Restful vistas of the mind, If I would just abandon duty And let her help me unwind. Her song echoes in the workplace, Gentle as a maiden's sigh, Luring...

Monster For A Day

I'd like to be a monster for a day, A Godzilla or King Kong, Something that got it's own way Because it's so big and strong; I'd travel to some boring town Where nothing much goes on, Dress up as an enormous clown And have a little fun. Could you imagine a local's face Watching the monster leap and... Sign in to see full entry.

Do not lead me, I will not follow; Do not follow, I shall not lead If you desire then walk beside me While we travel the same way. If you hunger I will not swallow, If you are cut I do not bleed Only my heart beats inside me No matter what poets say But if our path goes on together To walk side by... Sign in to see full entry.
