Best Corrina Poems
Oh breeze oh breeze upon my face your breath so soft and free
My body yearns to feel thou breath which blows so warm on me
Oh breeze oh breeze with birds you fly as you lift them far and wide
A thousand feathers gently flock to you begging for a ride
Oh sun oh sun such glories rays as you shine on flowers in bloom
All life does ask for your warming glow to save them from sure doom
Oh sun oh sun your hot healing fire makes the darkness go away
Each hour that you share your love, grey shadows never stay
Oh crystal waters fast and flowing over each mountains peak so clean
You quench my body and my soul nourishing every cell pristine
Oh crystal waters your precious drops quenching all life on this earth
Your raging essence and your awesomeness supports energy, life and birth
Oh earth oh earth under my body you heal as you energize me with your touch
When I lay upon your blanket green you fill my heart and soul with much
Oh earth oh earth my mother dear I thank you for holding me here
Without your love and your greatest force my spirit would fly up in the air
Each one of you does strengthen me and hold my mortal frame
As I enter one life from another I find your fire, wind and rain.

I wish I could just flip the world
and walk upon the sky
with the clouds beneath my tired feet
and the earth above me high
~
I would swim and glide through perfect blue
exploring every cloud I see
I would ask the stars for stardust light
for when the night fall downs on me
~
Like a bird I’d fly , I’d twist and turn
closing my eyes , sun against my skin
I would humbly ask the eagles how
to dance gently in the wind
~
I would dance and turn and fly about
till rest begged me to sleep
Then I’d open my eyes and my twisted earth
would be back against my feet
~

Sunshine
Punches sadness
floating on clouds weightless
delighted happiness will follow
I shine

Orange lilies sway
Swollen wood fence leaning drenched
First summers storm over

Cold autumn breeze blows
Bell ringing in the distance
Red leaves slow dancing

Tree branch barren home
Red oak acorns deep
Squirrels huddle for warmth

Ice soon melts new day
Gray chair with no color creaks
Sunshine breaths new life

One pierce from loves’ arrow sent my heart high
dear Cupid cast a gift from his red bow
weightless soaring through God’s lonely blue sky
Laced with bounties of love he would bestow
On that day we first met true love did soar
I pinched my own arm to startle my sleep
Then wondered if this new love would soon bore
yet love grew rich I fell deeper than deep
I knew that your love must be heaven sent
As I prayed to meet true love such as thou
Your love a bright spark of God He so lent
Just when I needed your love then and now
My faith restored in loves quest I believe
As Cupid struck hard that midsummer’s eve.

If I could be but a breath;
Anticipating each sweet rhythm; watching the rise of my chest
Collapsing in sweet song, sending out just my best
Id breathe out I Love you, and forget all the rest
If I could be but a breeze;
Id whisper my love in a rustle of leaves, anticipating as they awake
New fall colors scattering my love neither here nor there, Id debate
If this breeze was what could describe my heart, as it ached
If I could be but a gust,
Id blast my strong gale, erupting in a clatter and loud clangs
I would howl out your name as the gust accompanied hard rain
Tears streaming down by thousands, rattling cold window panes
If I could be but a draft;
Id slip under doorways, slide in next to you as you forever sleep
Rest myself within white satin's, under boards as they creak
Be that shiver that reminds you, you are never alone despite what you think
If I could only be with you;
As a warm wind I’d soar to heaven’s gate
I’d stay there
I would forever wait.

Sauntering without hindrance in consciousness
Sudden waves of lilac delight
Borne of a sweet tempered breeze I inhale
Powerful auras and essence soon ignite
Fields of flowers, tall grass, background birds singing
Closing my eyes I can no longer resist
I feel myself floating on air to that place I know well
Only in my mind does this utopia exist
Happiness and laughter fill my oasis
Birth of life from all nature abide here
Lilac carries me on a cloud of joy
Perched above all sadness and fear
Immaculateness wafting from rows of white lilacs
Serenity encompasses my spirit with peace
Pink lilacs increase my self confidence
My inner spirit strengthened, absence of meek
The violets ignite my spirits passions
Storms of rapture to undo all the wrongs
At peace I repose with new purpose
As my oasis once again has helped me grow strong
Written by Corrina
Thin ice fades away
Worms begin to stir beneath
Sprouted grass tickles ant’s toes
~
Fingerprints on glass
A blue jays nest on my eve
Babies sing its spring
~
Muck squash rubber boots
Rain sprinkles from heaven’s gate
Rainbows glow full bloom
~
Scent of white violets
Innocence blooms, babies smile
Sand grows in socks and shoes
~
Ah yes summer’s sun
Convertibles screech down roads
Trees awake leafless

Captured beneath a smokey red hazy sky, mesmerized
My attention and heart did follow
Sky aglow for as far as the eye could see
A beautiful sunset resting in her hallow
Red, pinks, some bedazzled grays
Imprisoned rainbows from this day
Quiet as they did sweep, silent
Across the land into the deep
Breathless, I gazed upon such beauty magnificent
She gently kissed the earth goodnight
With my hand to my heart
I was lost without word, simply grateful for such a sight
Too quickly she hurried
Whispering sweet promises of her next journey
Written by : Corrina
When my head had failed to sooth my heart
Common sense could not be found
Mother Nature hurled her cape of sustenance
In Her beauty, love tumbled around
When darkness from an impaired heart
Cast a spell my way with a leer
Love whispered “quick surround yourself”
A blanket of green earth appeared
When the thunder of my psyche clapped
Fleets of shame soon downward poured
Lighting strikes shook those within my breadth
No light came til the morn
Young spirits frolicked on my bed of green
Elapsed storm left a morning’s dew
Awakened with the sun’s bright rays of hope
A yellow bird settled on arms length bloom
Comfort of innocence and beauty enchanted me
In silence I submerge my thoughts in natures play
I whisper to my heart “it will be just fine”
For in Nature’s light and love, I am blessed today.

Once upon my childhood, for God’s love there had to be fear
His comfort I sought only arms length to please
As I repeated Acts of Contrition on my knees
Through my grandmother’s glasses I could see her glare
I knew God was above and when we die so were we
Yet narrowness and rules spelled out misery, strife
In God’s name wars began such pain ends of life
My religion got cloudy as I searched to be free
My heart so torn, there’s more I believe
This earth which we live on simply one of the few
With such little we know can we be so naive?
Too many galaxies and moons scattered deep in the blue
My quest for more knowledge too much too conceive
My religion I let go.......but in God I believe
Attempts at a ~Sonnet

Lashing out at me in rage anger
Speaking ill of my name and my strife
Forgetting all good and the love I have offered
Your perception is yours, not truth of my life
Why such dark anger and aversion do you offer
Lurking round corners my soul tainted thrashed with this hate
Poisoning those who had not met me with your lies no regret
This reflection you cast in your dark rain is not my fate as you berate
Just leave me alone in your cowardly scorn
I’ll do my best to forgive this negatively you rain
Your words and your hatred just the inner sadness of your soul
Such sadness I see, this pain that you hold
Your reflection of you and nothing more than your pain
This is but you your dark rain , not me nor my name
This picture you've painted lines smeared you lash out
Never speaking to me these claims you cast out
such foul words that you've said, too much anger resentment built up in your head
exploding the surroundings of those that dare enter your dark dread
So leave my name not on your lips
For I have a lot of good that you do not express
And this world that you live in, it’s only your world don’t you see?
Your anger is not mine to own it’s yours, so just let me be
Written by Corrina
Clutching the edges of the mirror I screamed in silence
"I see you, I know you are there! Show yourself."
Grief welled up inside as my swollen heart constricted; expelling ache in
one single tear that sped down my crimson cheek.
Stale cigarette smoke lingered in the hallway, yes
she was here all right! Her soft words murmured and echoed
off the walls as spiders hugged their cozy winter corners.
The air parted slightly as I heard a whisper, “I love you, I’ll always be with you.”
I know she is here, I hear her in my own voice as I whimper and shout
"I love you mummy, mummy, mummy", as I always did sing out in her praise.
Remembering how she held back her last tears as did I on that day. Moments
that I curse as it was so unnatural full knowing there would be no more hugs and hellos.
The good bye was loud as it screamed in the absence of the tears that were forced
so very far back . With a lump in my throat I winced out that one last fake smile.
I turned away choking on my dry thick sorrow, trying as best I could to swallow the loss.
My throat was closing in; I couldn't breathe out one last turn back over my shoulder.
My eyes glazed over as my heart filled with tears. I never thought I’d bear witness
to my first, my last and my final goodbye.
Written by Corrina
Passion withheld
Tormenting desire
Wanting so badly
My body on fire
Tasting your mouth
Your lips soft , oh so sweet
Longing all over
My will power weak
Temptation resistance
Confused with desire
Kiss me again
My body’s on fire!
Written by :Corrina
As my heavy eyes stretched open
I suddenly realized, I was not alone
You were there with me again, unwelcome with your heaviness and sorrow
stirring around once more in the depths of my brain, uninvited.
The acute pain you cause me
has seemed relentless this past year
as you stumble around in my dreams, sleepless I awaken
to curtains drawn as the thankless sunlight frowns forsaken.
I wondered in my drowsy state
If the curse was in the chocolate
or perhaps it was that one glass of wine which betrayed me
as I fell back in harm’s way while you laid in wait, veiled I could not see.
I long to have you out of my life
You do not define me yet you try
so very hard to keep me under your curse, weakening my very essence
with your intense pain , lashing out with your ever ready presence.
I am more than you
you may steal a day of my life
here and there as you savagely twist my hours into tragedy
only to see jagged lines of sorrow drawing out my agony.
But I am more than you
You cannot define me with your promise of pain
Or your lifetime of shadows cast from family with the same
No this girl, will not let you win even if you are dangerous and inflamed
I am more than you.
