Poem 2 for the teamwork contest

Where is the light that lived within 
Why has the flame of doubt appeared 
The trees bend slightly in the wind 
Towards darkness now have you veered
 
Focus on the things dear to you 
Where is the light that lived...

I See Beyond - - Contest Poem
I See Beyond…

I see beyond the damp, moldy roof shingling
I pay no mind to the stray cats on the stoop mingling
For I know that behind that chipped painted door 
Is a not just cape cod cottage but much more

A young girl in a dress runs...

Premium Member Informal Contest Poem: Crack the Code To Win
Within this rhyme there hides a key I have encrypted,
Find it if you can crack the code that must be first decrypted,

Look upon a poem called "Caesar's Cipher", which I wrote,
And within it you'll find a key to unlock the following nonsensical notes:

Contest Poem: 1984 Or 2017
1984 or 2017 (For Contest)

I ran as far away as I could
It predicted we'd fail, that all would ...
We humans revolt against "ought" and "should."

Orwell knew better - O well, you say!
In 1948, as one War seemed to give way
To a quieter, colder one, he...

Premium Member A Tongue In Cheek Contest Poem
I entered a contest the other day
Waited patiently for it to be judged
Oh drat - I’ve got yet another N/A
The ‘glowing comments’ I received were fudged!

So I thought I’d change my poetry style
To see if a new strategy would work...
ANOTHER N/A's added to my pile
Now...

Where Is the Light - Team Work Contest Poem 2
Where is the light that lived within,
Why has the flame of doubt appeared.
The trees bend slightly in the wind
Towards darkness, now have you veered.

Focus on the things dear to you,
Where is the light that lived within.
Your day will come before it's through,
You that have, not...

Fire Contest Poem
For every person, there can be a desire
It is to touch and hold that beautiful fire.
Rageful though it can be, it can be tamed,
Even then, for destruction, it might be blamed.
It is really our fault for the destruction it caused,
And the huge fires can not...

Jesus Contest Poem
Jesus the lover, the helper, the saviour,
Gave his life so we'd be forgiven. 
He died for us so to repay him,
In harmony and peace we should live in. 
He loves us no matter what,
And so we should do the same. 
Towards him and all our...

The Toymaker
The Toymakers Toy

I thought once Pinocchios strings had been cut, 
his wooden body turned to flesh 
and he became ‘real’

Yet, I have been cut loose from my strings, 
only to be left feeling numb,
and raw? 

I feel as though I have landed, 
like a twig...
