Best Gone Poems

For the rose without season is you
Light between stars shine through your soul
Ocean of kindness whispers your name
Joy resides in those beautiful eyes
Treasure trove,a friend to keep
Humbleness and Honesty your virtues
Open-hearted to all,expecting nothing in return
Mother and Wife who lives life for her beloveds
Admirable for...

Be gone..
Do not look me in the eyes 

We were not belongers
But,Intruders 
who happened to trespass 
into each other's  lives 

We were no Romeo and Juliette
But, Pretenders
Like moon rocks believing they are the ones
who light up the infinite sky


Be Gone..
Do not look me in...

Here I sit amongst the long grasses and the reed,
in a solitary place, where my breath is freed,
on an Indian Summer's evening on the lake bed,
autumn has come, yet the warmth has not fled.

Blazing orange skies, are mirrored to reflect,
I cannot imagine a scene being...

Great sun, your day is drawing to a marvelous close.
The horizon seems ablaze as you slowly spill into the turning of night.
Tomorrow we shall see your return,
as you stir sleepy eyes and herald the dawn.
Your arrival brings forth the songbird's call.
Though for now, your departure...

It was coming up for Christmas in the town of Soup Creek
Everyone was in good spirits and they had been all week
Jenna's saloon was very busy and Tania was about to sing
Folks had to stand and Jenna wished she had more seating. 

Tom glanced over...

Trills tumble through an air long silenced
warbled melodies enlighten the palate 
whistles delight but fly off to the thistle
freighted by the frigid speak  
amongst the downturn of the day
where blue skies lost their way

Memories of warm caresses
sing along in forgotten dreams
eclipsed heat of destiny
dealt...

How sad when things are too far gone -
when pleasures once you knew
are things no more to smile upon.
This plight for some is all too true.

Some souls are captive to their vice.
How sad when things are too far gone
and simple comforts don’t suffice.
To evil some...

Here one minute, gone the next
Life is everything it seems
Live each moment like your last
Never give up on your dreams

Wake each day to something new
Offer up a helping hand
Smile at a perfect stranger
Help a weary one to stand

Count your blessings one and all
Find the joy...

Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I cry
Sometimes I dream
Of Days gone by

Life was hard, each day we learned
We never wanted what we hadn’t earned
A handshake at the bank was the only must
Lives were built on faith and trust

Friday night dances at the school’s old gym
Pledge of Allegiance...

She kept it all inside her
and never spoke a word,
though her thoughts flew and darted
like a trapped and frantic bird.

Inside her was a garden
that was hung with Spanish moss,
like the massive oaks were weeping
to remind her of her loss..

The spider wove at breakneck speed,
a perfect...

she was a caterpillar,
i her cocoon

she was the music
i her dance

she was the rose
i her thorns

she was lost among the stars
i showed her the moon

i drifted like a tepid breeze
but she was lost in the storm

she was right
i was not wrong

she lit the fire
i burned...

It was my first Thanksgiving dinner as his wife
so I wanted the meal to be perfect in every way
But...trembling in fear, I cut my finger with a knife
It was the beginning of a day in piteous disarray

I didn't know a turkey would take so long...

I no longer search my memory
I no longer use my pride
I've loss the desire for liberty
I no longer speak for life

What I've said hundreds of times 
I'll repeat no more
Time has had it's passage
and totaled up the score

Love has used it's powers
both human and Divine
untold...

Meet in Eden's garden, where life first gave birth.
A beautiful paradise, pure and serene.
Amidst verdant petals, not seen on this Earth,
flowing in rainbow hues on lush lawns of green.
Like Adam and Eve, we'll roam in jasmine air,
adrift in nature's splendour without a care.
Sing lullabies with...

Have you longed to give your heart just for the sake of giving?
Withheld for years, for pain and tears spark fear that steals from living 
a full, enriched, and glorious life where joy outweighs the sorrow ~
one in which one yearns to live, believing in...
