Premium Member Yours To Keep

Yours to Keep

I was there, when you were born.
You brought a smile, not a scorn.
I was there, and watched you sleep.
Protecting, your tiny soul to keep.
		
What do you dream, I did oft ponder.
Made me sigh, my heart grow fonder.
Such innocence upon your face,
Would you always show such grace?

I was there to see you grow, 
To child and more, so long ago.
We as family, did trips take,
To many a country, island and lake.

I always sought another kiss,
To watch you grow, to reminisce.
A loving hug, a simple smile,
To add a memory to our file.

Well, when I re-play your life,
Your young years had little strife.
Those were days of joy and prime,
Your youth was such a happy time.

Hours became days and weeks,
Too quickly how time sneaks.
Weeks became months and years,
Until my love fell upon deaf ears.

Yes, I was there, as you grew,
Saw you both smile and stew.
Take your place in the world,
Aghast at how life unfurled.

It matters not how old you are,
Whether you be near or far.
You’ll always be my little girl.
To me, my eternal pearl.

One last thing I must add,
Tonight as you go to sleep.
Remember always, I’m your dad,
With love, and yours to keep.

The call of eight

Once upon the time in the land of saints and sinner
     Everything was completely covered with 
              darkness no movement at all
Until the Shadows of death come to life 
                That's how the Game begin...

Its all started in the ancient times
before human- race come to  existences
      But   Just after 
          we reach the sky, everything was possible...
So much was going on...
                its was like a night after party
Just in case you forgot the story miss Eden

                            to be called to the front-lines was 
 such a robbery and curse 
     at the same time
   because none of us believe in the
                          everlasting life anymore
           It was as  like telling a 
fairytales story indeed

         The puzzle remain mystery,
   Even today because 
                     just after we give birth
          Everything changed,   challenges rise  just  to Knock us down
        more like in the movies
so much was going on the other side for real
Believe me,   being a gambler 
       Was just like  A   foreign language which none of us do 
understand,   because
          The game was simple to watch over the street of Nile
                not to  overflow,  through the dark nights ... But
Back in the days
             Same just misunderstand the rules and go  
  after the
          golden treasure instead of  protecting it,
  Thy choose power over everything and ends up
 Destroying the temple
           in the battlefield

Premium Member THE GAME

THE GAME

Here's to the game 
of men and their ball.
The helmeted warriors 
of winter and fall.

They Explode off the line 
with a thunderous crack.
Standing them up, 
and pushing them back.
Stuffing the run,
and making the sack.

Sideline to Sideline 
down field and back.
He knows when to cover
and when to attack.
Setting the standard,
The leader of the pack.

Shutting down rivals
in zone or in man.
Closing the gap
he can't be out ran.
Batting down passes,
picks it of, his first plan.

Taking the hand off
this thoroughbred steed.
Advancing position 
with power and speed.
Running over or past them,
he'll get what you need.

They sprint down the field.
At incredible paces, 
grabbing bombs from the air,
and of the tips of shoe laces. 
Hard cuts and soft hands,
and winning the races.

Calling the signals.
Oposition's to read.
His arms is a cannon,
Work ethic his creed.
this rarest of athletes,
with a talent to lead.

Engaging attackers,
and forging of holes.
Protecting their leader.
The heart and the soul.
A team within a team,
with a singular goal. 

In heat, snow, or rain,
with blood, sweat, and tears, 
they play through the pain,
and attack without fear.

For their city, the people,
their brothers, their name,
most important of all,
for love of the game.
 
With prowess and grit
they give it their all,
for the ultimate honor,
enshrined in the hall.

How Would It Be

my wonders wonder how would it be
if God had made me an insect a flea
how short of life would life be
and all of God's creatures
i'd fear and flee
so small and fragile
not easy to see
crushed by everything but me

my wonders wonder how would it be
if God made me into a bee
i'd rally with my brother bee's
gather pollen from plants and trees
build a fortress for a queen
work like the devil to keep it clean
if any should bother our domain
where it is
i'll give them my stinger
and no longer live
such is the life for us and he
whom god decides
to make a bee

my wonders wonder how would it be 
if God decided an eagle i'd be
noble, honored, swift and sleek
flying in the air for food i seek
secretly fishing with my eye
rarely is seen my deadly dive
I AM the symble for liberty and pride
i'll mate only once and then i'll die

my wonders wonder how would it be
if God had made me into a tree
standing tall above it all
save the mountians standing tall
in it's season making leaves
protecting both birds ans bee's
reaching high into the sky
growing wider than all living creatures
bearing fruit to feed the nations
eating the sun's rays before the hit they ground
my shade a cool shelter for everything around

my wonders wonder how it would be
if God decided a peacock i'll be
i'd strut and wear my tail so proud
my feathers match with any croud
my eye's and beak they match so well
the prettiest of birds
it is known so well
my feathers are emaculate
and my shape is so swell
i take great pleasure
in showing off my tail

my wonders wonder why it came to be
God made me a human being
so different and diverse are each of us
some of us praise , some of us curse
yet we struggle to believe in God above
one they think is evil 
and the other made of love
to us he gave intelect
with a capasicity to feel
complicated emotions that shatter and kill
but with this comes motivation
to create and build
an internal competition
to be better and better still

some men beg some men borrow 
and some men commit fraud
and most of them presumably
forgot about their god

but in this world of wonder
where wonders never cease
there is a visible God
watching man and beast

Premium Member My Guardian Poet

A guardian poet you have been to me
Much like an angel, there protecting me
When I was silent, lost in dark of night
You read my words and brought me back to light

You told me that my words were ever true
That in my writes were thoughts profound and new
You would not let me simply drift away
A word of hope you’d send to greet each day

Your name is there below each thing I write
To tear dimmed eyes you brought a vision bright
“The Queen of Passion,” how I love the name
You gave to me and life is not the same

To you, my Guardian Poet, thanks I bring
You fool me not; I see your angel wing

Richard Lamoureux and I joined Poetry Soup at about the same time a year and eight months ago. Richard has been like a mentor to me. I’ve recently been very unwell emotionally and unable to write. I have appreciated the fact that he did not give up on me and kept daily visiting my previous writes and leaving words of encouragement. My words are my soul, so, in a way, he was affirming my worth as a person, which is what I was in need of. Richard has written a poem for me entitled, "Queen of the Romantic Pen."
 
Richard, your friendship is precious and dear. You are a man of faith and integrity. May God bless your home, your loved ones, and your heart with all that brings you joy. Thank you for standing by me through my dark times.

Sometimes

sometimes
am alive 
yes I got a spirit 
it high me up to God 
and that 
is a protection
in case you care to know
am a sinner 
yet it don't stop 
women loving me 
either does it stops 
God from protecting
my soul 

sometimes
the life is my plan **** 
and am the artist
with my pen 
in my world 
I am the omini scientists
in my creativity 
am the omini god
I need no stain 
I need no pollution
cos am a sinner
already crucified in 
the cross of greed
by the Forsakers
in  their gangs and evil
I draw a world so pure 
it wallow their heart 
it beat down their mini gods
at last I got a legacy to protect

sometimes
the old wise man 
use to say 
live to live again
the preacher man 
say be born again
the Laddies say live 
for today and let tomorrow
speak for it self 
but only
the politician says 
trust all you fear on 
us 
we can solve all of the 
above 
that  triggers a sinner 
like me to my bone 
cos I can draw the big 
bold lies in their 
manipulation
cos am already dead in 
their lies now am 
alive in a new truth 
I fear no Babylon
as much as the modern
still bully my art 
so I paint 
words with bleeding
pen while the eyes rains
sometimes

GREAT ESCAPE
             
   
              Glorious Gibbous Moon glistening proud.
               Rambling releasing raising ripples of rays
               Enraptured sleepy starry sky in glaze.
               Assembled crowd of cotton cumulous cloud.
               Trembled Moon: Thunderbolt roaring aloud.
           
               Encompassed enveloping Moon so soon.
               Sky shivered as dark clouds strolled in platoon.
               Concealed Moon merged in morose morbid mood.
               Angry ambient acting rowdy rude.
               Push and pull of sudden storm burst to blow
               expelled chased clouds protecting Moon aglow.

Premium Member Natures Charms

Picking black raspberries
Wading through briars and underbrush
Knowing that there are snakes and spiders and such

Blue stained fingers capture the white lie
That laughs from lips dry, thirsty
For a sense of fluid feelings drizzling on naked skin

Drained by the tangerine sun glowing
Breathing light across the penetrating shadows
Aching to color hope with blazing embers of assurance

Thoughts drift across a numbed mind
Feelings blending carefully, music of humbleness
Bleeding crimson as the nicks from quick little thorns

Reflections of lavender memory
Melancholy dread and fear that spread
From silent screams echoing in the past, history

Finally my pail is filled to overflowing
Drinking in the liquid lure of laughter, light
Lasting from dawn to dusk, glimmering stardust muse

These berries will dissolve into moments
Hastening to enrich lives with precious promises
Of homemade jelly, domesticated flavors of rich grace

Prayers fall from my tongue
Beckoning to God with tender psalms
Erasing all recollection of the stinging
Brought on by bristles lingering 
Protecting those berries from all harm

I have gone and taken away the ones
Who were sheltered – defenseless
Now they drizzle across my spoon
Sweet and succulent as a soft song

Let every berry flavor a heart
With kindness, joy, inspiration
That comes from nature’s charms
