My Poetry

I feel my poems are portraits
I try to create a scene
I use my words in a fashion
To let people know what I mean

I try not to bluster or blather
I try not to write things inane
I want to make the mind smile
Or cause the heart to feel pain

I like to write about nature
I love to speak about love
I point out the hells here on Earth
And the hopes from Heaven above

Aromas and colors excite me
They both make me close my eyes
I lay back and savor their flavor
Then grab my pen when I rise

Thoughts are constantly spinning
Around inside of my brain
I try my best just to sort them
And put them down in refrain

I could go on about feelings
But this poem must come to an end
So I hope those reading my writing
Will be my poetry friends


Rockman  :-)

Heidie Buys Date: 6/25/2011 8:41:00 AM You might have a point. I read a lot of the poems, but only comment if I liked the read. It is agonizing to sit and wonder what to say about a poem that you just can't connect with. On the other hand it might be insulting to just leave your name without a comment? i will have to mull over this one, lol Login to Reply

Heidie Buys Date: 6/25/2011 7:45:00 AM My first read of the day and a very pleasant one indeed. Very well written and so very true in content. Well done. Regards Login to Reply Rockman Pritts Date: 6/25/2011 8:02:00 AM Thanks Heidie. The purpose of it is to get people to connect. Wether or not you like it, at least put your name out there to be known and solicite more reading. If people don't want to comment, just putting your name in the comment says that you were there and I can search the readers poetry in kind. The more I see the name the more I remember it. :-)
