Compassion Poem

I wrote this poem for my wonderful mum who felt so very alone when my dad passed away. I wrote it to fill her heart with some sort of hope

She

 
She got up this morning,
sun shining through the blind,
she took a look in the mirror,
and something crossed her mind.

You weren't there to see her wake,
she didn't see your smile,
for when she does she feels like,
her days are all worthwhile.

She went into work today,
kids running through the halls,
she looked at plans for tomorrow,
and is sad when nobody calls.

She got in her car to go home today,
on the radio she heard a song,
it reminded her of you,
and how hurtful it is you're gone.

She went out with a friend tonight,
smiled and wore a brave face,
for all she really wants in life,
is to have you in this place.

She gets a daunting feeling,
one which won't disappear,
what's the point in all of this?
what's the point when you're not here?

She went to sleep that night,
tried to prepare for the days ahead,
if she looks real careful,
you're there on your side of the bed.

Stroke her hair and tell her,
that no matter what life throws,
you have a love like no other,
in death it continues to grow.

She got up this morning,
sun shining through the blind,
she took a look in the mirror,
and something crossed her mind.

You WERE there to see her wake,
and she could see your smile,
and when she did she realized,
you're only absent for a while.

She closes her eyes and in the dark,
she knows she'll see you again,
the only thing that troubles her,
is not being able to say when?

For now she must be patient,
and one day her time will come,
and you'll be there to take her hand,
and safely guide her home.

Dream Poem

Live each day to the fullest

For Alexis From Your Mama

 
Sitting on the steps, looking across the lake,
Wondering why, life at times, can seem great.
But in that second, it took me to just think,
My life could change, faster than a blink.

Is this a reason why we should always cherish?
Not knowing when loved ones may suddenly perish.
Living everyday, like it was our very last,
for our days could be very long or go by very fast

So I'll cherish and take nothing for granted,
not say things that shouldn't be chanted.
If this is the last day I have on this earth,
I accept my life, for what it's been worth.

Tomorrow isn't promised to young or old alike,
Today may be the last day I'm able to hold you tight.
Don't wait for tomorrow, do it all today,
If tomorrow never comes, you'll never regret a day.

Faith Poem

I am Wind Walker from the Glamorum Clan. The journey of self is what this poem is about. From a messed up kid who found my path, to a Shaman.

A Spiritual Journey

 
Across from the mountains,
A little house sits in the tree's,
I'm lost in tranquility,
As my soul tries to breath.

White clouds moving slowly,
The breeze a calm still,
I'm caught in the moment,
As my heart starts to heal.

A piece of me,
In the startling blue sky,
As I spread my wings,
My soul starts to fly.

I fly to unknown places,
Where pain and hurt once dwelled,
As the memories flow pass me,
My eyes start to swell.

Tear drops drip slowly,
Down my cheeks,
The wind wipes them dry,
And gives me some peace.

Soaring so free,
Over water and land,
My Spirit Guide gently,
Takes me by my hand.

He shows me what was,
And what's meant to be,
And why my life,
Is so important it seems.

A long soar,
Like the eagle high,
I bow my head,
And I start to cry.

Back on the land,
Across from the tree's,
I began to realize,
What healing means.

It mean's not to forget,
Let the past flow,
Of all the horrors,
One soul had to go.

To take the strengths,
And apply them to life,
Is a valuable lesson,
I've learnt this flight.

Alone in the sunset,
I watch it go down,
When I finally realize,
What peace I have found.

Poem

 

Consciousness
 

A massive shadow of hubris
crashes through a universe of thorns

having no feathers but smooth skin
and wing flaps of nearly transparent

lugubrious membrane
there's lightning by firing of eyes

thunder by flapping of wings
cowboys leaving a trail of moonshine

fire at the heart of it
while the legend disappears

rumours persist of a big dead bird
nailed to a barn with a mighty span unfurled

and several men posed under it for scale

Life Lesson Poem

I wrote this poem for my two brothers who were taken from me in the height of their lives. We never know when we will be called home...so just take a moment to see the beauty that is around us.

Carefree

 
Young, carefree, innocent
You sing, laugh and dance
Taking in all Gods' glory
At every single chance.

Grown up
You ignore the wonders
that you cherished as a child
Gone is the carefree, honesty and mild.

You walk around with blinders on,
Into the race of money and greed.
Not caring who gets hurt
Just to fulfill your selfish needs.

Stepping over the line of morals
to have wealth and material things
Ignoring all Gods gifts
Like the first rain in Spring

Keep that little child inside!
Hold her close to your heart,
We're only here for a brief time
Then with this world, we must part

For a moment each day
It's OK to get silly
to laugh and dance.
Take in all Gods glory
At every single chance.

Courage Poem

The title says it... putting things on paper is therapeutic for me yet. A "poetic" style works best for me to keep my thoughts from straying...thanks for allowing me to share!

Love In My Life

 
I married a man too early in life
and wasn't prepared to be a good wife.
I believed he loved me and things would be fine.
My love for him would grow over time.

The years passing by were good for awhile.
Then came a time I could not see my smile.
He cheated on me and I deserved more.
With a heavy heart I went out the door.

We parted as "friends", which ended one day.
With a baby conceived he went on his way.
He now liked his freedom away from me.
I carried our son -- he didn't want to see.

Soon after another cared about me;
I ignored the things I didn't want to see.
I married that man -- I thought it'd be best.
But soon after that, he was failing the test.

Driven by fear, I mistakenly thought
A son of "his own" was thing that he sought
I now had a toddler and one on the way;
there was no doubt, I now had to stay.

Things started to spiral out of control.
The alcohol had a firm grip his soul.
Choosing to leave to protect us all;
I was forced this time to really stand tall.

Now on my own with two children to raise
I examine my life in so many ways.
My relationships failed, for that I am sad;
but the result of those could never be bad.

Now long gone are those men from my past
replaced by a "true" love that forever will last.
My love for my sons, my two little boys,
erase all my pains and reveal only my joys.

I remember you

I can't see the moon anymore,
coz' i remember your face.
i can't see the stars anymore,
coz' i remember your eyes.
i can't see the dew anymore,
coz' i remember your tears.
i can't listen anymore,
coz' i remember your voice.
i can't smell a flower anymore,
coz' i remember your sweet smell.
i can't think anymore ,
coz' i remember you.

e live in such a world where...
..
-If a guy is with 10 girlfriends he's a
dude
And if a girl is with 2 friends who are
boys
she's said to be a s**t..
-if a guy drinks he's cool and if a girl
drinks
she's cheap..
-if a guy is out for late nights he's
asked by
people About the plans for tonight
and if a Girl is out she's been asked
her rate for
one night..
-A girl is expectd to forget a guy's
past and
be with him..
Where as if she speaks about her
past
she's just a bitch to be played with..
-We live in a place where guys want
their
sisters to be praised by the world and
their
girlfriends who they can show off the
world..
A girl is not a thing, a girl is not a
toy ,she
is priceless and a princess..
RESPECT HER!!! LOVE HER

anyone in my life completely

because of you I will not be able to live my life
without any regrets
.
.
because of you i
will not be able to express my
feeling ever <\3
