Best Life Is Wonderful Poems
Open the windows.
Open the doors.
Let the glorious sunshine in.
Remove the dust.
From the floors.
Listen, the birds are singing.
A happy, happy tune.
In April, May and June.
Live life to the full.
It's never dull.
Feel the vibrations.
And the thrill.
Over whelming you.
Stirring your soul.
Lifting you up.
To where you belong.
Begin the day with a song.
Life is wonderful and a joy.
It's there for you to enjoy.
To the country side.
And the sea., I go.
I hope to meet you there, you know..
I feel I want to shout out loud.
To thank, whoever made it so.
Made nature grow.
The sun to glow.
The flowers to bloom.
Come out of your lonely room.
I hope to see you soon.

HOW I LOVE CROCHETING....HOW IT RELAX ME SO....
EVERY TIME I USE MY CROCHET HOOK....
I'M SOMEWHERE ELSE...FAR AWAY I LOOK...
WHETHER I'M DOWN IN WONDERLAND....
WHETHER I'M IN A SILK RED GOWN,LIKE IN OUT LANDER...IN SCOTLAND....
WHETHER I'M DAY DREAMING OF A MUCH BETTER LIFE....
FAR,FAR,AWAY IN BRIGADOON...AS SOMEONE'S FUTURE WIFE....
OR EVEN IN A COUNTRY FARM HOUSE WITHIN MY DREAMS....
WHILE I CROCHETING ANYTHING....ISN'T WHAT IT SEEMS....
CROCHETING IS MY FAVORITE DRUG....
AT LEAST IT KEEPS AWAY FOOLISH WHORES AND THUGS....
LIFE IS WAY TOO DAMNED SHORT TO BE SWEEPING UP SOMEBODY ELSE'S RUGS....
FROM A BABY SACK OF RAINBOW COLORS DELIGHT....
TO A TINY WEE CHILD'S CLOAK...VERY WARM FOR A VERY COLD NIGHT....
A WHITE WEDDING CLOAK....YES,I MADE THAT,TOO.....
AND EVEN MULTI~COLORED PATCHES...FOR A BLANKET,I HELPED LADY SUE...
MUFFIN CAPS,AND EVEN SHAWL WRAPS...
AND I'VE EVEN CROCHETED,UNTIL I TOOK A NAP...
HAPPINESS,IN THIS ART I DO....
I EVEN BEEN INSPIRED BY A CLOAK MADE BY FIRST NATION INDIANS AT THE OAKLAND MUSEUM OF CALIFORNIA...AND I'M STILL NOT THROUGH....
CROCHETING EVEN SAVED MY LIFE....
BARELY A YEAR I JOINED BEFORE MY BELOVED MOTHER HAD DIED...
THIS BE MY TRIBUTE TO WHAT I DO...
LIFE IS WONDERFUL,THROUGH AND THROUGH....
HARD TIMES COME...AND HARD TIMES GO....
BUT,CROCHETING...IN TRUTH FULFILLS MY SOUL....
THIS BE MY HAPPINESS...THIS BE MY GOAL....
CROCHETING IS A HELL OF A DRUG...THAT I MUST CONFESS....
IT FULFILLS MY NIRVANA...NO LESS...!
Life is wonderful and beautiful
Like the waves beating the shore
my love for you, grows and grows
with each intake of breadth.
I know you will
never leave, me always be near
sharing my sad and happy times
we walked lifes path,
now it has ended,
no more as it had been
I walk alone, yet you are near,
feel your presence, I hold no fear,
you are in my prayers and in my heart.
life was so beautiful,
so beautiful, with you

Contest : Song Lyrics.....Peter White - Lifes Path
Sometimes ,
it feels like I’m lighting candles in the rain
desperately trying to make it work
trying everything I know
yet it”s futile
Sometimes life doesn’t seem fair
because it isn’t and
it’s not meant to be
Still, life is wonderful and
only I can change it
so though it may rain,
I’ll find a spot in-between the clouds
and let my candle shine bright
Today of all days, this is the most important one. Don't
look back nor forward rather be happy and contented within
this moment. Sail the self made boat on the lake - let it move
about swiftly and then perhaps run ashore on its own for the
next master to sail her. Lay down under the trees, taste your
wine and fruit divine. Watch the children play until the end of
day. Time has no mercy and within a blink all is gone. SEIZE
THE DAY (Carpe Diem) Knowing all the while that life is wonderful
precious, and live it to the fullest measure...
I was never a follower anyway
a big fan of the matrix; my heads loose
like a few screws you know
Suggest right I go left.
The first I ever witnessed man evolving
into something else
I would tell you what but I can't pronounce
the word.
Theres a machine lodged in the moon
on the other half whispers of atlantis
exscape the through sound waves
They blamed it all on mental illness
truthfully maybe it is, or maybe they
were just grinning for nothing the day
it arrived.
They call them screaming folks on the corner
some of us call them crazy depending on the color
their blasting prophets off their sqaure in the new
millinium, as for me I'm still searching
screaming out in the night like a mother-less animal
trying not to become prey to no man
keeping the scriptures close to my heart
like they will the sword as soon as some claims
he will return; like a thief in the night
Hope I won't be stealing that night
out of the front door hands filled with valuables
not ever knowing the owners will never return
Sorry for getting religous on you, acting out what
they want me to be
The reasons for all the mind f---ing ya dig
and all the incouraged words of suicide
Life is wonderful and free
Dude I got hooked on the episodes of schizafrania like
a television now I need it to live like a hit from the pipe
NO, NO I'm drug free never was for peer pressure
I use to watch my favorite aunts suck up the gothic lines
and leave and mentally able to push away in the ladder years
Their playing politics with our Christ
placing him at the door of prascastination
meaning; no one wants the truth of his coming
to much money involved, to much sin un-resolved
and everyone could be the prophecy but you
Your just always the victim.
- RAINFALL
By: Jade T. Miraflores
I can hear sweet music in every drop that falls.
Soothing unto my being,
bringing nostalgia into play.
When you fall and you own the universe,
I can help myself dancing through your alluring grace.
My voice cheerfully yells the life-blooming noise.
I tap my feet into the ground,
my arms stretched to feel your embrace.
I cuddle with you,
caressing and petting.
Ohh, your infinity fills the withered.
You speak none, yet I hear you whisper;
come, life is wonderful even when there is RAIN!
LIVING IN THE DEEP BLUE SEA
Sparkling sea with water so blue.
Swimming with fish,sharks,whales.
For dinner we eat seaweed and kale.
All my friends live here too.
A mermaid that lives in the water.
Arieal what a beautiful name.
Deep in the sea there's no fire or flame.
She's the king of the sea's daughter.
We have one thing in common"red hair".
Ocean living is a great place to be.
Life is wonderful in the deep blue sea.
We both are about loving and being fair.
I love to fish and she is a fish.
Jelly fish,clown fish and a sea horse.
Out of water things couldn't get worse.
If things got that bad she'ld make a wish.
She has a cartoon,movie and a book.
A special mermaid that children love.
Lives under the ocean and not above.
If you tried you can't catch her on a hook.

You’ve pushed the boat out once again
You’re out there on the beach
With the one you chose
to exchange your vows
Were the best ones out of reach?
Well you’ve done it now the deed is done
So make the best of it
Treat him mean
and keep him keen
Avoid litigious writs.
Italian life is wonderful,
all women wine and song,
But this thing I’ll teach,
allow him one of each
and you won’t go too far wrong
best regards

Spring's about to die,
Summer to start it's rebirth,
Life is wonderful.
Life is an adventure
The more you live the more you understand.
Life is a teacher
The more we live the more we learn.
Life is a rolling ball.
Life is more expensive than man himself.
Life is like an everyday tax.
Life is important,life is wonderful.
Life is an interesting ,
But dangerous game.
Life is ev'rything needed for man.
Life is the most expensive gift given to us
By God.
It shouldn't be defiled
All in the name of materialism.
Lets join hands and make this world
A better place,
By living life to the fullest.
To have a friend in you
There isn't a thing I wouldn't do.
No matter how high the tides were
You are my anchor,my guide to sail through.
We have seen the laughter and tears
We have been through ups and downs
Our success and our failures we shared
Helped each other to build lives together
Tomorrow distance may keep us apart
However our friendship will last forever
All these years of friendship with you
I cherish with joy,laughter and positivity.
My life is wonderful with friend like you
All I can say to you is,
Thankyou for your love,commitment and companionship.
A FAIRY TALE FOR CHILDREN
Once upon a time, long, long ago
In the land where your Dad once lived
There came a woman of great beauty
She was wandering along the roadside
Your Dad was watching from the shadows
She didn't know there was anyone around
He watched her closely as she stopped
She picked a handful of flowers
She continued to walk down the road
As your Dad watched her he had an idea
Why don't I introduce myself to her?
He quietly walked through the woods
When he reached the spot he had chosen
He stepped out onto the road
The lady was startled at his appearance
But she didn't seem at all frightened
Your Dad introduced himself to her
He invited her to come to church
She accepted his invitation
Do you know who that lady was?
Yes, Tommy, it was none other than your Mom
Now, she and your Dad have all of you children
And you all live happily in the little town
And life is wonderful!

They come to me, no time they see
Specially when I am the busiest me
Calm me down with words so clear
Wonder why others cannot hear
Let go….they say, It is okay
Nobody is perfect anyway.
They’re like crumbs left in wake
the end of a devoured chocolate cake
After the laughter has been laughed
Tears shed and worries shared
Bits of love and peace are left behind
Life is wonderful…A whisper reminds
The day is spent and I have listened
To people, friends and family
Now I sit me down with a cup of tea
And just silently listen to me.
Day after day, endless, I walked away from your tomb,
brokenhearted, melancholy, sorrowful and woebegone forlorn
my life in bits,
and pieces
my steps faltering, halting and hesitating
I wanted to die
to be with you:
under the cold white snow of winter, and
the azure sun:
I spent days, months, maybe a year desolate, like this
but inside me a fire was burning brighter and stronger,
then, one day I threw off my black cloak of grief
I felt the sun, on
my soul
my steps now move to the notes of music
I want to live
to be happy:
each day is a new day now for me, and
life is wonderful:
I still go visit your tomb, and it makes me weep
but now, I leave the grief there and turn away.
