also he forgives me when to him or her i cry
being in my body my mind is where he st...

| the 4th July | Sat Jul 04, 2009 11:44 am by Doreen Hampshire | The 4th July
Many years ago on this July morn
The United States of America was born
So today in the U. S of A
All enjoy your special day
So let the flags fly high
And fireworks light the sky
All join in the fun
As the flag is for freedom
Joyous reunions, a drive away
Family barbeques, inde...

| SLEEP BABY SLEEP | Fri Jul 03, 2009 2:00 am by Margaret Latter | SLEEP BABY SLEEP
As I lay you in your crib so gently
Your tiny body soft and silky
Your eyes are closed and you breath softly
And I thank GOD above for you in my life
SLEEP BABY SLEEP
As I watch you sleeping I think back
To when you were in my womb
Kicking and rolling around waiting for your big day
Precious mem...

| To Rhyme or Not to Rhyme?* | Sat Jun 20, 2009 9:10 pm by davidf | Rhythm and meter can be very hard
But if you've got the time
To sit and write a poem
You can make it rhyme.
Poems dont have to rhyme, of course,
There's experimental and free verse to name a few
Of the non-rhyming forms
And of course, there's haiku
So, to rhyme or not to rhyme,
It's up to you; it's your choice,
You have to make ...

| Face-Scape | Fri Jul 03, 2009 10:28 am by Rowan Hicks | Face-Scape
Back and forth turn the heads, no thought
But for the action. They move with the play,
Following the ploys.
Two camps, opposing armies
Intermingled, cheer on their heroes.
Dark glasses and white headgear, how can they
Call the shots? Identically uniformed,
They gasp at thrust and parry; they glo...

| Colours of the night. | Mon Jun 29, 2009 5:43 pm by backstreetdreamer | Neon rainbows write themselves upon the harbour's flow
Like modernistic madrigals that hide the moon's soft glow,
And starlit silver shadowed shapes dance gently to the sea
On multitudes of greys and golds that wave farewell to me,
Bright crystal goblet promises are held up to the sky
To toast the breath of evening like the twinkling of an eye, ...

_____
Since youth she had wanted to marry
but Mr Right refused always to call.
Her heart remained free for a taker
while her friends married, one and all.
She's now in her middle forties,
tired of her life on her own,
but she still holds her dream of a partner,
not continuing her life alone....

| Dreams in formal dress. | Tue Jun 30, 2009 10:22 am by backstreetdreamer | Come back to me once again
on the merest glimpse of evening’s aspirations
When the darkness carries all of my sublimely painted essences of you,
And untangle me once more
from life’s moonlit path of silver complications
Leaving midnight’s brush to paint the night’s complexion
as each shadow glows with such a different view.

I have become obsessed,
With wild Orchid photography,
Our countryside is blessed,
But to find them isn't easy.
Yesterday I was in luck,
Around Stover park they were dotted
But on identifyi...
