~The Red The White And The Blue~
(Free Verse)
Let's all stand by the red
The white and the blue,
There she stands in all her
Glory
And in all her colors so
Proud
She may be burnt and by some
People torn apart
But there she still stands
very, very proud,
In the houses, in the buildings
Flying always,
Always untouched in the wind
And in the hearts of the brave
The proud and the free,
She's much loved by me and
All of us
That believe in her cause and
Her dreams,
So she will always stand in
Our hearts, no matter what,
In all her radiant colors of
Red, white and blue....
Flying higher and very proud
In all the hearts of the brave
And the free,
And all the Ones that we love
And defend Liberty.

Hills come alive with sweet sounds of birds whistling tunes
Filled with harmonious peace, you sail within time
Gentle whispering winds through branches of trees call
When you dare to take the first step forward
Everything feels so easy embracing such beauty
Mixing voices of nature talk deeply flowering
Thrown into the unknown life is truly magical
A universe inside feelings explode in one gift
The soul eclipsing delight warmed with sunshine rays
Like a virgin being on guard of the tiger claws, lions, bears and snakes
Only when your starlight kisses clouds evaporate
Time continues and the butterfly waltzes freely once more
Crossing paths in this journey new beginnings grow
Small wild strawberries threaded upon a stem beg to taste
Opening one gateway within thoughts
Setting sail into another world beyond
With you salt of the ocean waves rise and fall
Upon rocks kissing pillar of strength
A cool breeze says goodbye upon your cheek
Loving spices land this boat on paradise sands where gold sparkles warm beams
When we meet at Heaven's gate batting lashes close entering a doorway into a dream

TWILIGHT'S AURORA
From the yawning west horizon stretch,
orange to red streaks painting the blue skies
Fleeting dragonflies flirt with the swaying breeze
as so the dives and glides from flock of starlings
Billowy to feather clouds unite
in a cosmic godly assemble rite.
The standing sound wind runs to blow
as the amber flames beneath the ashes glow.
Darkness inches it's way and wrath,
the lone farmer on the field then hurry to his path
as before the sunset, he needs to be home fast.
Crickets stalked with their wafting chants in the air
suddenly, soppy dew globules descends to the ground
crumbling to reach the parched earth bounds,
Drenched and tired after lots of strides
serenity falls to the farmer after the globules dried

Another lonely holiday and I can't bear to be alone.
No answer at the clinic... no one picked up the phone.
No one cares if I live or die. It's a good night to end it all.
I wonder if I'll be missed. I doubt anyone will even call.
I'm sure I have enough medicine to concoct my fatal drink.
I should wear something pretty. (Her drink left near the sink)
Dressed in the blue silk she wore for him, she looked her best.
Then she heard a timid knock. She was not expecting a guest.
Who is knocking at my door at this late hour of the night?
No fear of an intruder, she was past caring of any fright.
Through the peep hole she saw a lady standing in the rain.
What could she want with me when I'm feeling so much pain?
She opened to a smiling face and a bright and cheerful, "Hello.
My name is Rebecca and I just came by to let you know,
I was here earlier today, to share with you some good news.
I can see by your face that I've interrupted you, please excuse
me for knocking on your door so late tonight, but you see,
when no one answered this morning, I was worried as could be.
I thought I heard someone home, and then a muffled cry,
and I wanted to return tonight, so here I am, stopping by."
I closed my eyes and said a prayer, "God, can this really be?
Did You know what I was doing and sent her here to me?"
She came in out of the rain, and I asked her to take a seat.
Something in her demeanor gave me hope from my defeat.
"Excuse me a moment, but I need to take something for pain."
I took my fatal drink in hand and poured it down the drain.
From the Bible she read scriptures of comfort for my need.
I felt a glimmer of hope and in my mind I did concede
that what I had been missing was a reason to go on living.
Rebecca was a lifeline that night, instilling my faith and giving
me a new outlook on life. A visit from this Jehovah's Witness,
her knock upon my door, and my misery was turned into bliss.

Who is Knocking at My Door Contest

Each generation plants a tree
The next one enjoys the shade
Seeds we plant in young people's minds
Are engraved and will never fade
So choose your path very carefully
They're watching your every step
You might think they're too distracted
Or they think you're old and inept
They're always watching how you react
Each and every move you make
Be careful the seeds you sow every day
Will grow in them, make no mistake
The burden is on us for each generation
To guide them and show them the way
Map out the route to a happy life
Don't let anyone lead them astray
There'll be mine fields galore along the way
Protect them with words and with deeds
They'll love you for caring and taking the time
Encourage them to follow your lead

The girl wanted to fall in love truly madly deeply with someone
She wanted to held hands and watch the sunset
She wanted to go on a picnic
She wanted the surprises and to go on adventures
She wanted the hugs and the kisses
But right now, please take no as an answer
It's not that he's not worth it
It's not that he's not her type
It's not him
It's her heart
It's been broken for a very long time
It met too many hearts but then she choose to let them leave
She don't hate everyone
She's just not ready yet
She doesn't want to entertain
She's suffering from fragmentation
She's been alone for a very long time
She enjoyed it tho
So please take no as an answer
for she's not ready yet
Let time complete her
Let time fix her
Let time make her feel ready
Let time color her heart
For time can heal broken souls
For time can make someone ready
For time can make her realize
For time can prepare everyone
The girl wanted to fall in love again
But her heart is not ready yet
So please take not now as an answer
For time will let things to happen the way they meant to happen.
My thoughts let go of a thousand memories,
Like faces, dates, times and places;
Yet, I can recall each and every detail,
On the day of your funeral.
(. . .and my mind takes me back through the tattered pages of my life
to a place of warmth, security and love . . . . .)
O the grieving . . .
In the middle of a snow storm I followed,
And the wind blew back my long hair;
As we meandered down a winding cold path,
The wild wind paused in the trees.
( . . O, my mother's kitchen with it's big cupboards and old stove
and a blue teapot on the kitchen table and grandma telling me of life,
of people in the family long dead . . . )
O the weeping. . .
Snowflakes fell on me from the tangled branches,
Falling like crying tears cascading down;
I am lost and moaning in this forever, ever memory,
And now the snow drifts in the cemetery.
(. . . and it was at that same table that I read my first poems
while sipping tea and father coming in from shovelling snow
in winter all bundled up . . . )
O the sadness . . .
A headstone is buried deep in the pure white,
And but one engraved word is revealed;
In this pristine cold, dead winter wonderland,
Only one word can be seen, MOTHER,
Hidden beneath the snow.
(. . . a warm fireplace waiting within
then at night in an attic room this little girl was tucked in
with forever loving hands, hugs and kisses . . .)
O the lamenting . . .
I will treasure your arms last embrace, mother,
till this heart stops beating . . .

Second Place
I use to lay down
And dream
About all kind of things
About loving and laughter
Living Happily ever after
Seems like a fairytale
We living
We on top
Like a ceiling (like a ceiling)
Caught up in our feelings
We make the perfect match
That's a fact
Love is where it's at(it's at)
Let's make this a little clearer
I want to be drawn to you
Want to be nearer
We like each other
Its clear to see
I Want you
And you want me
Lets work it out
See where it goes
Take this chance
Who knows
Its time for you to show
How much you care
The love is in the air
Late night convos
That last for hours
At a time
Hey how was your day
Its going just fine
Calling me just because
Lets me know im thought of
The smallest things you do
Are the ones that count
I love you
With every ounce
Every ounce of me
Now I know the best things are free
If you told me
This is how it feels
When you know the Love is real
Its amazing
And its feel great
To know that they appreciate
Everything whether big or small
My love is worthy
And to you I give my all
What we built
No one can break
The feelings we feel for each other
No one can take
We like each other
Its clear to see
I Want you
And you want me
Lets work it out
See where it goes
Take this chance
Who knows
Its time for you to show
How much you care
The love is in the air
You like me
I like you
What are we to do
Sit down a have a heart to heart
Beginning of a brand new start(yeaaahhh)
Learning from one another
The perfect illustration to a new cover
Now that's hot
And special
We going in this new friendship
Real careful
No rush
Take it slowly
Who cares so what
We just want to be
Different and cool
I just want to see
What it means to be
To be in something so good
Makes you want to sing
We are glowing
Were the lyric to each other voice
Im glowing
You the prose to a poetry that keeps flowing
Your my re to the mix
I am your perfect fix
I feel the love in the air
And it's so fun
We both finally found the one
Lets take a chance and a hike
You are no longer Mr.Wrong you Mr.Right
We like each other
Its clear to see
I Want you
And you want me
Lets work it out
See where it goes
Take this chance
Who knows
Its time for you to show
How much you care
The love is in the air

~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you must know
Truth and love;
Eternal door posts
~~~~~~~~~
He kills the body
Hurls an old twist;
Hatred devours dying
~~~~~~~~~
Love is real
Truth hurts;
Hatred destroys
~~~~~~~~~
Drama attracts
Returning drama;
Cause and effect
~~~~~~~~~
Love is easy
Joy is breezy;
Why choose hatred?
~~~~~~~~~
Feel your heart
Light as a feather;
Want for no-thing
~~~~~~~~~
Dawn stirs
Old made new;
Magic unfurls
~~~~~~~~~
Plumeria sunlight
Sparking beauty;
Flowery discourse
~~~~~~~~~
By this walkway
Busy feet trample;
Friday business pulse
~~~~~~~~~
