Premium Member If My Life Flashed Before My Eyes
If my life flashed before my eyes…

There would be a moment of sadness
    Yet, there would be more joy and gladness

There would be a smile of recollection 
     With the melody of tender affection

There would be assurance and...

TIME PIECES

grandfather clock
time so easy to take apart
this child
with broken heart
couldn’t piece back together


that moment
she frowned and closed the door
i checked my watch
second hand stopped
gone forever more


summer vacation

hour hand
locked on 3:00 o’clock 
minute hand
but a tick tock away
“tick tock”   hooray!


in my closet
out of...

Perhaps if we were to take apart grief as we unravel life  
one single moment unstitched pulled out of time 
we'd begin to see that death is only a silent passage 
and we need not bear the loss alone,    
The memories...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Taking Beryl Apart
When I was a child ‘bout five to six I used to dream that this were me
I’d peel back frame from toys, take apart their guise to see what was beneath
I was ever so careful, every tiny pin, kept safe in a sealed plastic case
Just...

Harsh words impugn if slung in hate
and rip apart a calloused heart.
Expressed regret cannot abate
the pain that permeates our slate.

It's best to stop and take apart
the wagon which has run amuck.
Affix new wheels upon the cart
then shove ahead to a fresh start.

Deep in the mire,...

THE FAMILY

Still came the child in all her energy and essence, 
her smell of nickel and pumpkin, of lavender and bay; 
in little songs she's hummed, in her oh so gentle play.

A universe herself, 
before she landed here; 
in radiant lovely laughter and dropped inside...

There Is This Dark Place Where I Go
There Is This Dark Place Where I Go

There is this dark place where I go 
when feeling overwhelmed
When life is too much to go on
My light all but dispelled

I take myself up to my room
And lie down on my bed
Surrounding pillows cuddle me
My thoughts are...

Premium Member The Box
Where I live is in between
A memory and a dream
Walking a tightrope each day
I light my self on fire
And take a big box
And head down Main Street
The weasels in the front of Bill’s Cafe
Love it, spewing hate and spit
And laughing at me because they don’t...

One of a Kind
One Of A Kind
By MEH3

The lady is beautiful 
The woman is sweet 
The girl is fine, 
she is one of a kind. 
I admire her drive 
I love her walk
She has that sophisticated talk
that could blow one's mind
She has a motor like Ford
A body like...

My Valentine
If I had never meet you
I wouldn’t know what true love meant
I didn't know the meaning of happiness
my lonely life was just content

Never knowing the magic of romance
And to hear some one say I love you
To me these were just illusions
A dream that will never...

Waiting For You
U r not there in the lining on 
my palms...
Nor do I see you in the fate 
of my arms;
But your name is clearly 
inscribed in the walls of my 
heart...
Which no force on earth can 
take apart!
Why don't u descend from 
the domain of...

This Room
I like being alone
To find the comfort
That I'm not
This room knows me
The window knows
When to bring me light
This pillow 
This piece of material
Has cushioned 
Such tears
It holds my night

Together

A tossing of a head
A deep dark hole
When dreams
Piece together
And take apart
All that tears my soul

Who finds...

Sacrifice Your Light For Me
I will take the static silence and replace it with many roars
I will take away the violence and heal away your sores,
Let me take away the anguish and replace it with many smiles
Let me truly vanquish the hurt of the many miles...

Let me take your...
