Inside my heart is where you always dwell my darling
never forgotten
from that first kiss you were to be my true love
this love cannot be destroyed
You are
the rose inside my heart- dear
from that moment we met- we were to be one
joined eternally
I recall all the good times
we shared love, passion, desire and happiness
so alike- we complimented each other
we were so truly in love
Darling
like E.E. Cummings wrote in his romantic poem
I carry you in my heart
until my last day on earth I will love you
I go often with a rose
to lay upon your mossed and engraved tomb stone
seems odd for a man who was so full of life
oh, listen birds are singing
There is a great beauty in this decaying
such a peacefulness where chipmunks run and leap
my eyes fill with tears
and a rose of love blooms brightly in my heart

First Place
My life’s worthless without You, my Saviour*
my soul’s great fortress
from sin-woes’ distress...
You made a grand change in my behaviour
with Your divine might
showing me Your light.
Yes, You left Your glory just to seek me out
Leading me toward heaven without doubt...
You’re my being’s essence.
Pride prevails over me without Your grace
thus, I trust Your heart
midst unbelief’s dart...
I constantly need Your goodness’ embrace
warming me with joy
against guilt’s ploy...
You deserve my praises with full earnestness
To You I submit, trusting Your faithfulness...
You’re my being’s essence.
My world revolves around You – forever…
You hold my future
Of faith’s adventure...
Even final death can never sever
our relationship
of sweet fellowship.
May You find me pleasing You with my utmost
While serving You thru others at any cost.
You’re my being’s essence.
*Luke 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
Today, I thank You, dear God for Your love, sending to me Your Son Jesus Christ to be my Saviour. Thank You, dear Jesus, for dying on the cross, being buried, and rising again to save me from hell, granting me eternal life. I trust You. I put my faith in You while I repent of my sins. Thank You, Holy Spirit for enlightening me that only Jesus Christ can save me, and satisfy my soul. Amen.

I once had me a dark-haired lover,
I was riding high on our romance.
She said she would be mine forever,
so, I decided to take the chance.
Then I found out she was the devil,
just all dressed up in an angel’s clothes.
She taught me the path to happiness,
is where I will never get to go.
I thought I could still tell right from wrong,
how good and bad are supposed to be.
But if I’ve learned one thing in this life,
true love is something I’ll never see.
Each time I try to climb the mountain,
somewhere down the line I always fell.
Instead of going through Heaven’s gates,
I’d end up right back here in this Hell.
I’m walking through this heartless city,
on a cold and windy winter’s morn.
My soul is as hard as this sidewalk.
my heart is tattered, ripped, and torn.
These empty streets on Sunday morning,
when I have no other place to go,
They will make a man feel more alone,
than alone should ever have to know.
I’m not looking for something special,
I’m just trying hard to dodge life’s blow.
When you know you’ll never reach the top,
down in the dumps does not feel too low.
Bloomed My Heart
You are the one who bloomed my heart,
came to my miserable life, and pressed Restart.
Your lips pressed against mine,
At last, fate had become divine.
you came into my life made me whole,
this feeling that is washing away not only my pain but my soul.
Your body feels similar to my soul,
you embraced my broken pieces and have played a significant role.
The pull of the invisible string is relaxed, it's a heavy sigh of relief,
I look into your eyes thinking angels do exist and believe.
even majestic rainbow stretched in the bright blue sky,
can't catch my attention when you are passing by.
you'll be the queen, in the kingdom of my heart,
I'll be the king, so we'll never be apart.
here in my arms is where you belong,
our two hearts beating to the same song.
The depths of my soul are too shallow.
The fruits of my labor grew fallow.
A sing songy rhyme in three quarter time.
Is all that this poem has to show.
But what can a free thinking fellow.
Do when his mind has turned to jello.
As he sits and requires to express.
What he knows, he know's won't impress.
So he jump's in with nothing to lose.
With his iambic poetic shoes.
If you pay close attention.
You'll notice him mention.
But quite secretly, only with clues.
The afternoon's weaving and waving.
As he still sit's here just misbehaving.
Doing nothing worth while, now somewhat of a style.
He finds that it's all that he's craving.
An emptiness filled to the brim.
Is all that is left inside him.
A repose to the past that surely can't last.
OMG, are you kidding, how dim.
POEM FOR A LOST BROTHERMAN
Yo brother man
There is something
You need to understand.
Mama said to me
They drowned her pappy’s pa
Who actually jumped overboard
To be free;
Said papa was found hanging
From a China berry tree
For being uppidy;
She said pop was shot in the back
For being a strong proud
Militant black’.
Now just look at you;
Sitting sniffing shooting stuff
Like you don’t know what else to do;
Convinced that life is just too "tuff" for us.
Com’on brother, throw away that blanket of Linus!
Or do you still prefer to be less than zero?
Registering on a scale of one to ten, nought minus:
The branded number given to the long lost lethargic *****.
uncanny half-moon
whish says breeze ~ eerie night owl
hoots tu-whit, tu-whoo

SECOND PLACE
Bite-size Poem 43 Poetry Contest

I tried to read a favorite poem of mine for you.
Your eyes glazed over.
You could have been a lizard on a rock
sunning yourself, entirely unaware
that I felt as though I were there in front of you
reciting my words of such beauty
that an angel could have been
singing them while playing on a harp.
You may have even fallen quite to sleep.
Not once did you look up or glance at me.
You told me later, in fact, you had no use for poetry.
Another time I tried to read a poem to you.
It was a poem meticulously crafted just for you.
I could tell you liked it, for you were its centerpiece.
You pricked up your ears a little bit.
You thanked me, but no sweet words
of great appreciate did you return.
I am a stranger in your world of pure practicality.
Your love for me is steadfast and real; however,
asking if you’d love me if I were not a poet
is like asking a mother if she’d love her baby
if it were not merely there cooing in her lap.
Here is a poem I posted on my Instagram account daisymeadows2023. Poetry prompts by POETS ISLAND and poem suggestion by @sabrinas-poems.
SPIDERS SONG
A silken Web has been spun,
A pattern of beauty,
Weaving and dancing has begun.
Of each delicate strand,
A tale unfolds,
Of creatures fate,
In the spiders hold!!
Such nimble legs,
Dancing with such grace,
Then hiding in the shadows,
Not showing their face.
A spiders song is bittersweet,
But such beautiful tapestry.
All unique!!
Each web has it's own mystery,
A spiders song,
Weaved in harmony, like a symphony!!
I speak to you from shadows of life after death
An exiled Black Heart, eldest brother of Seth
I remember living life ( "I remember my Wife")
Recollections of my creation of devastating strife
Reminiscing my youth, I lied, I cheated, ones I cherished
Memories of ones I loved, Haunting the darkness I call home
A forgotten, unforgiving dark soul; reading the words of this Poem
Remembrance of yesteryears gone by; tomorrows unseen
"Am I my brother's keeper" or am I an unknown fiend
Lenore: my Love, for Eons of Eternity, a Broken Heart Perished
Castaway from the Garden of Eden, Living in the land of Nod
Always alone and lonely in private solitude I cry
LENORE; You went to Glory: living Eons of Eternities with GOD
My Heart matured in Evil, an in Evil my Heart shall die
A Soul that walks on the embers of Hell with a Heart still Loving YOU
Pain and agony exhumed my heart in Life, now lives with me in death
I fear I will never see You again, once I have breathed my last breath
To hold your hand and embrace you; Hold your silken body next to mine
FOREVER and ALWAYS " I LOVE YOU " Though our Spirits will never combine
So listen to the echoes that float across the sea; a solemn vow "I DO"
