GREAT CONTENT

WITH A SMILE IN MY HEART

Sometimes I can’t find the words

That fills my messy head.

Can’t find the effort to smile or get out of my bed.

MY OLD PEN

Hugging my soft pillow

As I gather my lost shattered thoughts

I reach for my pen

My best friend, my old fellow

THAT GIRL

Silent tear fall from her eyes

As she fell on her knees and cry

No one can see her pain filled life

It doesn’t show in her hazel eyes

THE RAINBOW

Boats sail on the rivers,

And ships sail on the seas;

But clouds that sail across the sky

Are prettier far than these.

Transcendence

When imbalance of life churns hapless poignancy

And the zephyr of inequities breezes melancholy

Dissonance reverberates echoing pathos of grief

Seeking exaltation within metaphysical profundity

We Are Not Merely Poets

Some of us are secretive at first. We hide our poetry’s soul self,

gently letting her peep out; sometimes regretting it immediately.

Fearful of critiques from people who do not understand that poetry

is something we are compelled and born to do with our feelings.

YOU WILL NEVER SEE ME FALL

You may see me struggle,

but you won’t see me fall.

Regardless if I’m weak or not,

I’m going to stand tall.

Everyone says life is easy,

but truly living it is not.

HIGH SCHOOL

Growing up.

The next four years start here.

Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors.

Hear the feet pounding the floors.

Eyes are watching, everywhere.

INNER PEACE

The wind whistles past my ears.

Closing my eyes, I lose all my fears.

The waves crash into the rocks.

Out here there is no time on my clock.

NOW WE ARE SIX

When I was One,

I had just begun.

When I was Two,

I was nearly new.

When I was Three

I was hardly me.
