Best Catching Poems

Missing words that drop from the quiet sky..
Some you just can't catch and let pass by..
Others are like tasting raindrops in the night..
Or trying to kiss a snowflake before its out of sight..
Clearer days and clearer minds let more land straight..
Now its easier to feel...

The black and orange dust
comes off on my fingers
revealing the fragile mesh
so easily crushed
therefore brave

I was troubled
the color was so loose
so removable to my hand
but even more at the
transparency beneath

Oh, don't go catching butterflies
until you are prepared to see
the underpinning delicate and clear
where there is...

TIME CATCHING
©Alfreda Williamson, 6/29/12
Spring’s first day . . .
	blustery, blowing,
	as cold as
Winter’s first blast.

Until . . .
	as hot as, blazing,
	relentless,
Summer’s sun.

Then . . . 
	as I stood in,
	the midst of the seasons.
	I felt it,
	ever so softly, almost imperceptibly,
	a brushing against my cheek,
	a landing on my...

It comes across as anger
But really it's despair,
It may seem bad tempered
But it's just because you care.

For you know where they are going
You know what's up ahead,
And you know that you have no control
And it fills your heart with dread.

Once again dragged down a path
Where...

my heart
    races so

my breath
    i cannot catch 

how the seconds the hours
    vanish

powder puff dreams
    crumble to dust

scattered
    by a gust of wind

there it was
    life

and...

Your wish come true
If you come back
And truly love.

It's worth the wait
If you believe
That love can wait.

Hope not in vain
If you pursue
And not give up.

Eyes on the road
Keep wheel on hand
Pursue your dream....

This poem is inspired by the second book in The Hunger Games Series. Warning- Contains 
Spoilers!

Sparks aflame
Fire and rage spread
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to run!

The capitol want's revenge!
They will do anything to get it.
Back into the arena I am sent
Pitting Peeta and I against each other.

*Paghuli ng Bulalakaw*

Minsan ako'y nakahuli ng isang bulalakaw,
at sa aking mga kamay inilagay
Ako'y lubhang napaso, nasaktan ng lubusan
kaya't aking itong pinakawalan...

Isang gabi, natanaw ko ang isang tala
na nagliyab sa himpapawirin
Akin lamang tinignan, at aking pinagmithian
Wari ko'y ngayon, tama ang aking ginawa.

Sitting there so beautifully-
the one who had stolen my heart from me.
I walked right by to catch his eye,
but caught a pole instead....

More open than a book My whole wide world has been 
shaken,rolled,flipped and shooked When Why or How 
this happened is beyond my comprehension Im 
discombobulated congested with all types of 
emotions and feelings So soon Too fast we clicked like 
puzzle pieces we fit...

Catching Fire
Some of us are watching the skies for works of fire
While some of us are quietly catching it.

Which are you?...

I catch the rain, speckled-droplets of life on my skin.
The pure water that instills life in our beings, soul and kin.
I catch the rain on my face to feel the wetness
In the heat of the yellow sun---in that brightness.
I embrace the dark wet earth
As it...

Dragonflies are the jewels of the pond.
Fluttering, they land on dewy kissed leaves,
Colors shimmering reflects in the sun.

Their four wings are always catching the sun,
Inspires thoughts of fairies around the pond.
Little nymphs flitting from flowers to leaves.

Emerald spread wings basking on the leaves.
They're magical creatures...

Catching Rays – a Duo Rhyme


If you’re lying naked on your chaise
in your backyard catching rays
be careful others may intrude
calling your behavior lewd
a towel cover you should include
in case your accidently viewed
certain parts must not protrude
when you sunbathe In the nude
your actions might be misconstrued
and...
