Best Shania Poems


Premium Member I Wish

I wish I were an angel
To flood your world with my light
To hold, comfort and cheer you
All through long lonely night

I wish I were a fairy
To flit about your dear heart
To give it tiny squeezes
When about to fall apart
	
I wish I were a goddess
Of beauty a paragon
So you would gaze and wonder
Thoughts of any other gone

I wish I were a muse
Living there inside your mind
To offer inspiration
When right words you need to find

I wish I were a princess
Blessed with luxury so fine
I’d make you live in splendor
If you promise to be mine

I wish I were a star
Sprinkling stardust down on you
Guiding each and every step
Make your dearest wish come true

I wish I were the moon
Working on your inner tides
Drawing you ever closer
Till in me your love abides

I wish I were the sun
Burning to the very core
Searing you with my passion
Rays touching what I adore

I wish I were a flower
To bloom nurtured by your care
Wrap you in my loving scent
Make life beautiful and fair

I wish I were the wind
Caressing you every way
Enfolding you in my arms
Seductress having my way

I wish I were the rain
That wets body through and through
That sprinkles love droplets soft
But then drums itself on you

I wish I were the sea
Foaming, churning ecstasy
To draw you into my depth
Riding waves, unleashed and free

But I am just a woman
I’m as simple as can be
But if you give me your love
All these wonders you will see

Inspired in part by Shania Twain’s song: “Jealous”   I love that woman…She is awesome. Wish I could see her in Vegas…She is there performing now…Such great songs….

Premium Member It Only Hurts When You Let It

It only hurts when you let it. I used to be the living example of the words to Shania Twain's song: "It only hurts when I breathe." I'm becoming stronger. I need to be. It's called self-preservation...and I need to survive.

It only hurts when you let it. Will I be liked by everyone? NO! That thought in itself used to KILL me. The need to please and be liked by everyone would make me unable to say no to things people would ask of me. I didn't want to lose face. I didn't want to disappoint. I didn't want to offend. I'm still like that....but I'm working on it.

It only hurt when you let it. What others think of me....doesn't define who I am. It used to. That related to my poetry as well. I'd try to write what's kosher. In particular, my sensual writes were and are a source of torment at times. Judgementalism still stings. It only hurts when you let it.

Yes, it only hurts when you let it. I will TRY not to give anyone the satisfaction of bringing me down through their criticism, prejudices, and yes, even through their neglect. If I'm not read or congratulated or applauded, I won't let it get to me because it only hurts when you let it.

This is a big step for a sensitive soul. However, I'm taking that step. I'm tired of letting it hurt me, but here's the thing: It only hurts if you let it! :)

Premium Member Shania Twain Drives Me Insane- In the Best of Ways

That Shania Twain
Drives me insane
She croons out the songs, “In my Car”…..
My glorified feminist is “SHE”

The ferocious female hunter
She knows when to be feminine
“Man! I Feel like a Woman!” is what gets her prey
Oh, Shania, “I’m Jealous!”

Confident of her sexuality
Yet, “She’s not Just a Pretty Face”
“Don’t be Stupid,” ….You KNOW women rule 
Cause, hey BOYS….“I’m Going to Get You GOOD”

Yes, Shania, “You’re Still the ONE”
Who makes me believe 
That I CAN control of my life 
“From this Moment On”

Eileen Manassian Ghali

Favorite Lines of MINE:

In My Car:

But in my car--I'll be the driver
In my car-I'm in control
In my car--I come alive and
In my car—I am the driver--
Watch me now! 
(I’m never as free here in Lebanon as I was in Cyprus…….Driving over a 100 Kilometers per hour…..Window down……..Wind in my hair……..Music blaring………IN CONTROL) 

I’m Gonna Getcha Good:

Uh, I Know I sound serious and baby I am
You’re a fine piece of real estate, and I’m gonna get me some land
(FOR ONCE….MEN get treated like objects and NOT women!)

Man! I Feel Like A Woman:

The girls need a break tonight we're gonna take
The chance to get out on the town
We don't need romance, we only wanna dance
We're gonna let our hair hang down (OH HOW I LOVE TO DANCE)
The best thing about bein' a woman
Is the prerogative to have a little fun and
Man, I Feel Like a Woman (Sorry guys…There is NO feeling like being a woman IN CONTROL)

She’s Not Just a Pretty Face:

She is your waitress, she is your judge
She is your TEACHER
She is every woman in the world
She’s…not…just a pretty face
She’s..not..just a pretty face
She’s..got..everything it takes
She’s..mother..of the human race
She’s..not..just a pretty face


Premium Member Shania My Love

Shania my love, you gorgeous creature
Sure like to explore all your amazing features
It would blow my mind
Snuggling up, I'd go blind
I'd be your pupil and you'd be my teacher

My tribute to the gorgeous and talented Shania Twain!!!

Victory Day!

It's a Victory Day,
It's a Holiday of our Country,
Dance: we are free and genious
Citizens of Art and Dancing
City where my father and my
Mother married many years ago,
We are free, my little girl,
Free and happy boys and girls
From the little town of Joy,
From the West of Fest
Is also the beautiful country,
Music:
Sing my baby song and rest,
Have a good time,
Smile and dance,
Shania is merry
With a cowboy and  are married
Now
In the new sense of a holiday
Of all our Big Love
As the happy people say!

Favorite Lyrics

“We got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout”
And though we may dream of ‘Jackson’, the fire has yet to go out;
I smile as I idly think of you, tempting me still to this day,
And  no matter how much time has passed, I know I’ll always say…

“Someone so perfect can’t be falling for me”
But your love is there, plain for me to see;
It never wanes from day to day,
You still show it blindly in your own way;

“I can still see love for me in your eyes”
Not a chance now for sad sobbing goodbyes;
We find in each other more than just lust,
It’s friendship and love based solely on trust;

Our love grows stronger with each passing year,
Through good times and bad, each smile and tear;
We sometimes reminisce about all the places that we’ve been,
You always seem to say “And I thought I loved you then” 

*Johnny Cash (Jackson)
**Leann Rimes (Nothin' 'Bout Love Makes Sense)
***Shania Twain (Forever and For Always)
****Brad Paisley (Then)


Love Is a River!

Love is a river, love is a kiss,
Love shines forever, it is ageless,
Love is a Sun, on the Earth it is Shania!

You Can!

If you are free woman, not only fan,
Do for our people what does a superman:
Love Shania Twain and sing if you can!

Girls and Boys!

Let George, I think, let MTV will be again,
Our George... Michael - the best singer
And Shania on Christmas: all girls and boys!

You Is A...

You is a song and all are with holy fire:
Even the King and Queen start to dance and sing
New thing from our dear Shania

People and Children

People and children  work in the Internet,
Dream to have it like other use their head -
Free from mass media anyway!
And I must say -
It's our happy nowday,
Children, have always if you need
News in your pocket and read
Now electron-mail from London Beat,
Great! Like a pager socket -
Mobil  phone by tele-Nokia Rocket,
Is made radio scan for fan -
Professional system for fun
And very hilarious walk,
And now with stars on-line talk!
Want - speak with Madonna!
Want - with Birkin, sorry, Aliona?
Lisa, Shania or Mona?
Free is... Michael, John, Chris,
Iraqliy and Boy George, Beatrice!
Or Michael George - 
You can now search!
Paul, Robert and Kurt,
Peter and Deter are good!

Premium Member Shania the Oak Leaf Cat

Shania was an oak leaf cat with ears to the sky.
She was a jokester with barely a snarl or try.
We met her on an autumn day, my buddy and me.
She was sitting on the edge of a huge oak tree.

After the Evening Rain

N-ight cold chill has turned
I-nto warm new morning light, 
A-s dawn has broken.
