Just Because
It's A Stranger
'Just Because'
That Just Is.
Just Because:
This Happens Here,
This Happens There...
In Ordered
Essential
Fundamental
Pairs.
Always,
Everywhere,
Constantly...
Perfection Maintained.
Unseeable,
Unseen...
Without It:
There Cannot
Be Change.
Without Change:
Nothing Can
Be.
Perfect.
Always.
Just Because.

Just Because
Looking at a blank page is hard,
but often it doesn't take long
for the emotions boiling inside
to make their way out and
fill the page with sorrow, pain,
fear, hope, and finally joy
Because life is a mixture that brews
every day. I take it moment
by moment and refuse to let the
dark moments overshadow the light

Just Because
The contest I want to enter is called Just Because,
I thought about it and took a pause.
Today is a great day just because
I can go put flowers in a vase,
Listen to music of a legend so great,
Play tic-tac-toe with my soul mate.
Ponder the mysteries of life,
Put high heels on to greet the nightlife,
Sway to the

Creation cum recreation !
Trying to make my writings bright,

Just Because
If I can drive, I do not walk.
I no more write letters; by cell phone I talk.
I sometimes hide dirt under the rug.
Most things in my house I do not unplug.
I like my clothing permanent pressed,
and I go to bed sometimes not undressed.
Fun things I do most of the day
by putting things off so I

Just Because
Playing hopscotch.
After having butterscotch.
Landing on a square.
Wearing mismatched shoes, instead of a pair.
But still, feeling taunted.
Stones that trip me up, I never wanted,
There is rain now, too.
The sadness, we found true.
Indoors?
There is nothing galore.
But then a cat appears at the window.
A cat that I don't even

Just Because Poetry
"I like to bring my imagination out in writing so you can bring your imagination out in reading." By Poet
I like to write just because poetry can live,
so my words can come to life with jive.
My ink will not be bound alive,
for it must write to survive.
Watch out for my crazy imagination,
it makes up my

JUST BECAUSE
Just because television is a bore
writing a poem is less a chore
I can live in a scribble where words soar
Minds that ripple the universe forevermore
Because I am envious of your style
Yours is limitless like silver smile
You are cool like a sculptured rock
Turquoise jewel of classic hip hop
Because I think too much all the time
And want

Just Because I Love Words
I have no theme, no muse, no just cause or aim.
Untouched by reason, no spark nor any flame.
Yet still the words flow, kindled all the same,
By the sheer love of words and the games they play.
My poet's head is full of words churning within,
With magnetic attraction for their next of kin,
Words that describe images, thoughts,

Just Because
Poetry contests are lots of fun
they excercise your mind.
I've taken part in quite a few
it helps to past the time.
Just Because I've entered
I never expect to win.
Even though I've wrecked my brain
they always end up in the bin.
But that does not deter me
for I'm determined to get it

American Favor- Just Because
American Favor/Just Because
"Just because of American Favor some people think this way.''
Another day of American favor, our lives to contemplate.
The body tones with rhythmic beats - 96 to 98.
We seek to please the heart with sales or cheap, wholesale deals.
This is the stuff that fills up time between the daily meals.
Just because we happen to

JUST BECAUSE
Just because I have been asked,
By Poetry Soup’s John Lawless,
To write a random poem,
I need to find something flawless.
I thought about a Haiku,
But, although not very long,
I can’t count up to seventeen
So I’m bound to get it wrong
Now Villanelles are tricky,
Though I’ve tried from time to time,.
But I really can’t be bothered
To find six words

JUST BECAUSE
I felt it, yet I really cannot explain
There, it just happened once again
A burning desire to clap and cheer
But hold on, there is nobody here
Perhaps I’m starting to go off piste
I should take a deep breath at least
Why am I stupidly waving this flag
My hope of sanity is starting to sag
It is as if

The Just Because
Inspiration from the Emptiness Statue by sculptor Albert Gyorgy
the hole in my heart is ever growing
and yet, even heavier it seems to be
I wonder, is time ridiculing my knowing
should this vessel regret its’ destiny
the space life occupies, must be vacated
so in hope life passes on its' DNA
for all, the longest night moves on unabated
as
