| | | SPECIAL BOND | Sun May 20, 2012 4:41 pm by antropolis | He can not imagine life without you just your daily presence gets him thru
For each day the Lord gives his sweetheart it's your love that sets him free
To live each day with faith and hope to face life's problems with courage to cope
There are so many chores left undone you work from morn till the setting sun
So many dreams still incomplete so many challenges to fight and defeat
They keep on …

| Shimmering brocade whispers. | Fri May 18, 2012 5:32 pm by backstreetdreamer | Trembling and shimmering brocade whispers smiled
So peacefully through morning’s limpid eyes,
Like rainbows through church glass windows
That framed uncertain thought stained morning skies,
And breezes played, entwining floral daydreams
As they wandered over bridges set on tissue paper strands
Just like messengers of mesmerism that fluttered in the air
Those cloistered echoes riding echoes …

| chase the blues | Sun May 13, 2012 1:10 pm by Ian Russell | When you are low and feeling blue
And know not what to say or do
Just think back to happy times
To good friends or some silly rhymes
Recall the fun that once you knew
Your silly scrapes –You`ve have had a few
Now look up- the skies of grey
You will find have passed away
The sun `s come out the sky`s turned blue
Your blues have left a happier you

| Bruce Hamilton's Redoing of Shakespeare's Sonnet #33 | Mon May 14, 2012 1:36 am by bruce_hh | Shakespeare's Sonnet #33
[Redone by Bruce Hamilton]
I've seen no end of glorious mornings wield
their powers, to flatter mountaintops and hills --
with bright eyes kissing many a dewy field
and gilding countless rocks and countless rills.
Yet, soon the grossest clouds begin to ride
with hideous shadows on the day's fine face;
and from the world the sun soon seems to hide
and slowly lumbers westward with no grace.
Exactly …[/Redone]

| WHO IS WHO? | Wed May 16, 2012 8:13 pm by bruce_hh | WHO IS WHO?
Credentials are necessary forms of identification.
Distrust necessarily has a rampancy
that kicks the midriff any society
might proffer masses of questioning.
That "so-and-so" is a such-and-such
that accomplished thus-and-so is a datum
that is appreciable. Any solid proof
has an opportunity. Knowledge has been
reviled and been given many harsh labels,
but the cerebrum, the …

| Encouragement | Sun May 13, 2012 1:05 pm by Ian Russell |
When you look into your past
At all the things you`ve done
It really will surprise you
How much of it was fun
I know you have had sad times
And times when you were low
But the happy times outweighed them
And made the dark clouds go
Tally up all your achievements
And start to write them down
You will find much to please you
And not much to cause a frown
When you have finished writing
I feel …

| Thoughts on a summer day | Tue May 15, 2012 8:07 am by Ian Russell |
It is mid-May the skies are grey
Although it`s Summertime
I feel that I should travel
To find a warmer clime
But when I see the news each day
Of earthquakes and of rain
It would not be worth my while
To go to sunny Spain
So I sit here in my garden
As the sun decides to shine
I think that I`ll just stay at home
The Scottish weather is just fine

| CURRY | Sun May 13, 2012 7:56 pm by bruce_hh | CURRY
Curry can lend
a dish a trend
respectful of glory.
A further story
might shout that spicings
are sad sufficings.
A curry soon hits
quite meaty bits.
The tasting world
can feel refurled
by sundry forces
of several courses.

| THE PERSON HE'D ALMOST FORGOTTEN | Sun May 13, 2012 6:40 pm by antropolis | There is someone deep in his mind, who changed his life forever, a ghost in his past.
Who haunts him with her love.
His passion for her was so true, it was unparalleled by any other and still is.
The hurt of his loss still pains him as his mind calls her name in his sleep.
He wishes for her body close again to his, yearning for her very touch.
The nights were hot that summer, the days even …
