A Little Bit of Poetry
Just for clarification, I am posting these up here because I would like comments on them. Why? Because critics help me understand what I did right, and what I did wrong. =) Alright, that said, here it goes. Short Poems First: Fire is my toy, The color of the leafs. Water is my trickster, Colder then the sea. Air is my emotions, Shifting to my will. Earth is my domain, For a very short while still. ~o~O~o~ I look out the window, And what do I see? Beauty that inspires me. Clouds and trees, Floating, rustling in the lofty breeze. This is what my eye sees Outside the Window View. ~o~O~o~ Cloudy, gloomy, dreary Sky, Sorrowful clouds floating by, Pain filled spirit within the tortured Soul. Eyes pear out, broken and dull… Where is redemption for a shattered life? Why do humans survive on their own strife? Quietly the winds blow by, Rustling the leaves under an empty Sky. Gloomy, dreary, grey, grey World, Into the infinite cosmos it has been hurled. ~o~O~o~ If I Fall, Will I Rise? Who’s to stop me, From my demise. Will I shatter, Like the wind? Who will send me, A God send. Can I forgive, And be forgiven? What is there to say, For this life I live in? |
Longer(ish) Poems: Title: Because of a Hurricane The sea starts crashing endlessly Turmoil rips apart the sea, People cry “God help me!” Underneath nothing is still, Water rises Waves crash against a sill. Water rises Air becomes scarce. Water rises The Desperation begins, Yet with hope soon to end. Title: Missing You Dried tears in mine eyes A slow sadness in my heart, How I miss you so far away, Since I can only see you on the Holiday. Why wont the snow stop To bring family together? Why can’t the roads constrict, Because when you’re away I feel sick. Perhaps the weather will clear Bringing you home all the sooner Perhaps God acknowledged my prayer, And the snows will no longer layer. But if you can’t come home today, At least be safe where you stay! We’ll meet up tomorrow anyway. Title: An Ode to Sir Toby Lionheart (my dog) Golden maned yet oh so tame, Our own Sir Toby Lionheart you where. You faced us all with happy smiles, To show you missed us when we traveled miles. Your bark was welcome at our return, Yet now we mourn for what we learn, Our Lion’s heart is Gone. We will miss you, courageous dog that you were. But for now may you rest in peace in fields of mur, For oh what a wonderful dog you were. Title: Eyes of love Those Eyes of Love, that look so deep, How can mine ever meet? They hold within a tender knowledge Of all the times I’ve stumbled off the edge. “The Road is to Narrow!” Is my cry, Yet He picks me up and lets me lie. Those Eyes of Love, that see all things, How can they look at human beings? Yet stern the tell and admonish me, To turn away every day and follow faithfully. “I am Weak in Love!” My second plea, Yet still He holds my hand, and teaches me. Those Eyes of Love that search the heart Forever it seems, an eternity to start, To follow my one true love Just as does the Turtle Dove. O Those Eyes of Love they turn and see, Even those deepest hidden regions of me. How it pierces every fiber of my being, Just knowing what He is seeing. Yet Those Eyes of Love for all, Arest my soul, and they call… I must follow my true Love, As does the Turtle Dove. To what end this may be, Will only be known in Eternity, But this one fact I often see, Those Loving Eyes that see through me, They never, ever stop caring nor let me be. |
