Best Peoplesound Poems
I would say on first summings, being a little shy
sit back and read my poem,i`ll try to explain why
my speach is not so perfect flowing,i get a little tensed
until you get to know me,i let down my gaurd and fence
Of all that can succomb to me,`til i`m comfortable you`ll know
my confidence,relaxing and along my speach will flow
when i do feel at ease, and amongst all friends
the joker does emerge from me,then i will probably tend
To come out from my shell, and enjoy a drink or two.
Or onto my Fiance` and family,that i love so dear
my friends i do have a few or just general peers
i have one daughter, and a grandson,my heart i hold so near
I like to think i`m thoughtful,kind,selfless and caring
and give sound advice,whenever it seems bearing
so Tracie, i`d like to think i`ve covered, all of your ground
without blowing my horn, i`d say i`m sound as a pound.

HEARTS
Somewhere back in time it started,
The beating of two lonely hearted,
Synchronized by times now charted,
And there they stood together.
*
On a grassy, sunlit hill
Those two hearts made their appeal
For one another's love so real,
While not a sound was uttered.
*
One heart looked in the others eyes
And saw love there to no surprise.
Then at once, both realized
Their love for one another.
*
Innocent, and not really knowing,
Those two hearts their love bestowing
Their love to one another showing
As the world and time went by.
*
It isn’t really fair they say,
For hearts to be in love this way,
Keeping their secrets locked away,
But there they stood together.
*
For what did those two sad hearts seek
When together they did meet?
Was it for love to be complete,
Which they could find in no other?
*
Was it truly in the stars
That those two hearts with all their scars
Would find love where morality bars
Their loving one another?
*
Now this grassy sunlit hill
Where two hearts made their appeal,
Is standing desolate, parched, and still
And not a sound is uttered.
