Premium Member For the First Time
For the first time from the creation of eternity we find ourselves now standing on far different facing shores with no bridge but one designed to reunite us. Though hidden from my sight I yet feel your presence living within me, abiding in calm restraint, your understanding our moment apart is mere flicker...

Snow, Seen For the First Time
If, for the moment, should you Touching, forgo The most appealing landscapes Do make the snow. But prone as we are to prove Through a tingling If painful, those rumours of What's real or not Soft, serene what eyes spot Fingers, freeze in!...

Premium Member For the First Time In Years I Was Me
A classmate was murdered. So I threw away my colors. Because she was colorful, and shiny. Dazzling, radiant. If they were murdering yellows, reds and pinks. I wanted to be grayscale, covert, hidden. Nonaccessible. I released the colors I loved. I threw away my favorite – orange. I lived for several years without colors. My life was bland; I was fearful, and tame. Too...

Premium Member Knowing For the First Time After Ts Eliot
Knowing for the first time (after TS Eliot) Knowing for the first time means becoming aware that there really is no first or next time.. It means realizing time has asserted itself as a fencing with barbed-wire barbs claiming their sequence marking our surrender of freedom.. As time barbs dissolve in our space of being we know with joy for the first and all time... We shall not cease from exploration,...

Premium Member For the First Time For a Long Time
Steep are the crags of the Macgillicuddy Mountains, Steep are the mountains that slope down to the sea. Deep are the streams and the fast flowing rivers, Deep are the feelings that are stirring in me. I look across the picturesque valleys, I watch the birds fly, swoop and dive. I now realise that we are really over, For the first time...

For the First Time
I dreaded the thought of looking old until I thought of stories untold of my grandmother's prime, as if I looked for the very first time at her face and in her eyes who she was beyond disguise....

Back Again For the First Time
Back again for the first time Waves travel from mid ocean to the shore line The rain drop falls from leaf to leaf in the amazon Birds mate and create The souls of soul mates die together What we have is temporary But was meant to be like a prince becoming king I look at you, you look at me...

Seeing For the First Time
Today I saw her As if for the first time She had aged dramaticly Deep lines all over her face crippled and deformed she was now Barely clinging to life When once she was so beautiful So full of energy strength and perfectly Shape from head to toe I recall many complimenting her beauty I...

Meeting For the First Time At Heavens Gate
Poetically I speak to your heart The tears of time are bitter sweet The dreams of old are torn apart Oceans of sadness finally meet Never found when push comes to shove Looking for sun in the darkness night Perpetually caught in the whisper of love Never knowing what's wrong or right Searching the shore's for a grain of hope Intertwined with destiny...

For the First Time--Again
I dreaded the thought of appearing old, Until I thought of stories quietly told, Of my grandmother's prime; As if I looked for the very first time At her face and into her eyes... Now, seeing who she was beyond age's disguise. Here I am, in my older year With my own grey hair And all the other things to bare, Hopefully...
