My Teacher My Mom

My mother was my teacher she gave me her all.
So when I had troubles she's the one I'd call.

If I needed her help she was always there.
To help me through life and teach me to share.

I was the middle child four girls and three boys.
We brought my mom so much love and joy.

When I was little she taught me to walk.
My first words were"I LOVE YOU" as she
            taught me to talk.

If I cut my finger or fell and scraped my knee.
She'd kiss it and say now it's better baby.

She helped me with my homework no matter
                       what it was.
She's the best mom at no matter what she does.

As times got hard and as I traveled through life.
She led through example how to be a good mom 
                   and a good wife.

She was the best at everything she did.
Even though I wasn't her only kid.

My mother made me the person that I wanted to be
Standing proud,truthful and strong for her to see.

A Fishing Trip To Remember

One summer day as hot as it can be.
We went fishing just us three.

I got my pole a hook and a weight.
Going fishing for me felt just great.

As I cast out my line a fish bit my hook.
Ohhh I got one in five min.that's all it took.

So I jerked real hard as I reeled it in.
That's when my wheelchair begun to spin.

I fell backwards as the fish flew through the air.
And that's when a big cow patty got in my hair.

We all laughed so hard we couldn't see straight.
Remember I saved the fish I caught for next years bait.

beautiful princess lived all alone her name was Isabella.Every night as she laid her 
head down to sleep she would dream of a handsome prince to come and rescue

Taken To Soon

TAKEN TO SOON

A piece of my heart died today.
Benny left us here cause he couldn't stay.
There was so many things he wanted to say.
We will all miss him while he's on heavens way.
He was so funny and had a great smile.
Telling us jokes was just his style.
He was a wonderful son and a loving dad.
If he was your friend he was the best you ever had.
Micheal,Geno,Buddy,Daniel,Kevin,Dustin the list is so long.
Now all of his friends will have to stay strong.
His life wasn't long but he left us three treasure's.
Ashley,Morgan,Daniel his love for them can't be measured.
We all will always love and miss you Benny.
From all your friends there are so many.
In loving memory of Benjamin Joseph Hamilton  Born 08/03/76 Died 11/23/11

Mommy Don'T Leave Me Here

Please mommy don't leave me here.
He's standing there holding a beer.
I'm crying as she walks down the stairs.
Never looking back as if she doesn't care.
He was in the kitchen and I heard a loud boom.
Thats when I ran upstairs to my room.
He started upstairs screeming my name.
I knew he was looking for me to blame.
Under my bed is where I hid.
He opened the door and said"hey where are you kid.
He reached under my bed and pulled my out.
He said little girl don't cry or pout.
I never cried I just turned my head.
After he finished I wished I was dead.

Introduce Me

"INTRODUCE ME"

Hi my name is Teresa my friends call me big T.
I'm crippled with Muscular dystrophy.
I'm unable to walk or write my name.
Life is hard but there's no one to blame.
I thank God for my poetry that I'm able to write.
Also for all my friends on the poetry site.
I try real hard to do what I do.
Writing makes me happy anything else makes me blue.
Some days I'm sad and I need to cry.
Some days I'm happy and don't know why.
My husband and family dry my tears.
They're the reason I have no fears.
My love for them is why I hold on.
Hope I'm their treasure when I'm gone.

Sooner Nation

SOONER NATION
The Oklahoma Sooners are my favorite team.
  Their school colors are crimson and cream.

  They can run a ball and score real high.
    Make the other team fumble and cry.

             Yeah Boomer Sooners.

He's Gone

HE'S GONE

     HE'S GONE


We're gonna be sad and we're gonna morn.
We know he's in heaven and no longer torn.
His pain is gone and ours still lingers.
From the bottom of our toes to the tips of our fingers.
We will miss him more than he will ever know.
But he's ok now cause we told him it's ok to go.
We will see him each and every day.
Through rainbows and sunrays.
*********************************************************
His first breath came on the day he was born.
His last breath came on the day I'll always morn.
My heart is broke cause he left me here.
I hope I  can go on without the fear.
I will love him until the day I die.
Together later thats why I'll never say bye.
We will miss him so very much.
We'll always remember daddy's touch.
             Teresa & Pootie Skyles

In loving memory of Bunny Skyles Jr.

Drusilla

.Her name is Drusilla she's a creature of the night.
                 When she feeds it comes with one bite.
              Beauty and long black hair and skin of white.
                         She thinks death is her rite.

             In search for her prey was her deep,dark plan.
                         Russia is where she lives.
                   Her hunger for a hot blooded man.
                          His blood to her he gives.

                She lays in a coffin until night time falls.
                   Been a vampire most of her life.
        A castle where she lives she roams through the halls.
            Her teeth long and white and cut like a knife.

            Dark forest of trees she walks without a sound.
                       Wearing a flowing white gown.
              She lives in the dark but not in the ground.
            You must have a cross if you live in her town.

             A journey into the sun will turn her body to ash.
                    She only enter's if she's invited in.
               After her death cut off her head with a slash.
                 Gender doesn't matter women or men.
