Best Special(A) Poems

So it was that tragedy, which lead me finally,
Have another invasion, upon my lands-never, 
To guard my boundaries, and bolster my army,
Let the pain in my heart, with cold fury- wither

The petty palisades of wood, are now of stone,
Upon ramparts are erected, many cannons strong,
Mighty...

Through thick, thin, high and low
Anytime, whether it's sunny or rainy
Asta is there when you need one hugs
 
Spending time with you, share joy and love
Beautiful and valuable as a summer day will be
Her presence will bring light and beautiful colors in your life

Sweet kisses from...

Up in the ink sky
A lone star shines

My eyes fixed on its sight
winking at me its diamond eyes

Empowers me to strive
To make a wish come to life

To bring someone special a smile
By love, a dancing light, beguiled

Crossing my fingers tight
That God, His love, my light

Moved into my first apartment, I was now standing completely on my own,
Called the telephone company to install my phone so I wouldn’t feel alone.
Felt pretty proud of myself, just didn’t realize how young and foolish I was,
The telephone man hooked up my phone but...

The loss of a child, can be quite hard, to bare,
it’s just not the natural order and it will never seem fair.
Our children are everything, we give them our all.
They get every hug and kiss, and we pick them up when they fall.

I remember a...

The world is a lave a pallet of creation
Looking into space, a futile distraction 
The earth is in space and all it represents 
Looking upward wondering ignoring the obvious 
The pattern of nature the key to life 
Everything in nature release us from strife

I keep meetin 'em
don't really understand
why..
eyes always lookin ahead
calm.. 
slow to rile
yet quick to
lend a hand.

Kiss their mother on the cheek 
sayin a last goodbye..
going off to chase their fortune
never knowin' why.

Boys most, not yet men,
practiced at the two step.
farmers some..
worked out on the plain...

Sometimes friends that are far away
can be your best friend
He lives in Malta
Which is 7,609 km in distance from where I am
I came to PoetrySoup in Jan of 2016
Obviously, at first, I didn’t know him
But soon it became clear to me that this man
Was special…a...

I spread my arms, like wings
To embrace love that sings
That reaches my mind with peace
While my wishes and hope increase
Inspiration flows with words to me
I welcome to keep for eternity
You are special, a light to shine
All that you’ve given, grateful is mine
To cherish, as if...

I sit all alone thinking of you
and all the things we've both been through
You are my very best friend
and I know you'll be there until the end 

Your shoulder to cry on is now gone
who will be there when something is wrong
When times are tough...

AN ECLECTIC ENIGMA 1
The rhythm of life,spontaneous
and easy,lively & special a touchstone
of the ephemeral.An all embracing delight
imagination made manifest of stray
objects.Inspired informality,of
leisured elegance,a pervading
atmosphere of a coherent whole.
Quiet& simple charm in divine
eloquence,perfection in simple
continuity to bring a shared rapture.
Inspired by Jim Ede’s collection of artworks

A mom is someone special, a mom  is someone kind
When you’ve had a bad day, she knows what’s on your mind.
When you’re not feeling well and you feel like crap
She always comes with open arms and a space for you in her lap.
She doesn’t...

A small cameo rests inside a velvet-lined chest
Its latch broken, there’s a faded picture inside,
A thumbnail-sized sketch of her handsome best
Has rested inside it since Great-Grandpa died.
Her cameo’s been treasured through the years
Passed through generations with loving care,
Which once was handled through flowing tears
Now is...

No clouds could grace the sky on such a day
'Tis too special a time, they know their place 
Conformed to my word that I have my way
And sun never leavest thine pretty face

The inner beating of my finest race 
Perfection is what I must realise...

Jessica, in time, became ripe with child, the only child that she would bear. 

“I know who that baby was,” a sweet young voice interrupted the story.  This is my favorite part.
“Shhh,” came from the Storyteller, quieting the child.

Joulupukki knew his child to be...
