Over mounts and founts where muse is found clear
Expecting greatness from Poetry Soup
Then finding it when you need to recoup
Rehabilitated when you feel at home

Or a long acrostic poem that rhymes

Open up that journal, do it your way
Caring for others when kindness is yearned
Kaleidoscope of cultures we have learned
So gather in love; for this gift is earned

Seek First the Lord S Kingdom

S-eek first the Lord's kingdom, 
O-pen up your mind; 
L-eave all the iniquities and each transgression behind.

F-ind first the Lord's kingdom, 
L-et your eyes see the light; 
O-pen both of them, 
R-ealizing the path so right.
E-arnestly seek first the kingdom, 
N-ever ignore the sheepfold; 
T-enth of November Friday
I-s warming the chill so cold.
N-ight is about to end, new dawn will surely come; 
O-pen up your heart and soul, seek first the Lord's kingdom.

Premium MemberLiving a Scot In My Home Land

I've lived in my land all of my life
travelled in many other lands on holiday
but always to return to what I call home
cause it's special always come what may

The weather is well documented as dull
but has its bright spells not often as it should
when the sun comes out it's so colourful
brightens up your day get you in right mood

Raised up many a famous poetic pen
Burns, Scott and Bonar to name a few
makes one seek to be inspired by them
hold your pen up to wait in the queue 

The scenery of the highlands and lowlands
will take your breath away so very grand
the majesty of the wonder of its creator
shows the finger of a divine hand

So many grand castles and mountains
really there's so very much to tell
but really you should really come yourself
to see it in its glory to watch it all gel!

Premium MemberA Trail of Better Days

The world is full of people.
Some are good and some are bad.
The difference between them
are the solutions that they had.

Some folks don't react well
when a problem comes in play.
Others are more practiced
for when trouble comes their way.

The smart ones seem to look at things
with a positive approach.
They listen to advice 
from a mentor or a coach.

The sad ones let things stew inside
and pen up all their rage.
They seem to think of life
as if they're living in a cage.

Solving problems, helping out,
and keeping a cool head,
are keys to lasting happiness
that don't have to be said.

So cherish any problems
that try to get you down.
Think of them as practice
as you wend your way through town

Tackle problems with a smile
and look for helpful ways.
If you do you'll always find
a trail of better days.

My Poem

My Poem

You are

The pulse of my thoughts

The beats of my words

The voice of my inspiring muse

The ink of my very soul

The echo of my despair and hope.

You are my poem

A beauty in my heart

A star on my space

A delight in my universe

A sigh out of my chest

A constant call in my life.

You are my poem

Waking my pen up to light

Making me dream day and night

Showing me paths of inner sight

Giving me the pleasure to write

Bringing me out of my shell with pride.

You are

Love

L-ove let's labor and act this life;
O-pen up those hearts and arms;
V-ery, very assertive vessels beholden;
E-very one should love for God is ... love worthy

Make Your Life Open Up

R-ise of the sun has begun
I-n twenty-ninth September; 
T-elling your life to open up, 
A-fter the night's deep slumber.

L-ight in the sky is shining
A-s the dawn has just broken; 
M-aking your life open up, 
A-vailable under the heaven.
Y-our soul has to be fed by the food from up above; 
O-pen up your life to God to be satisfied with His love.

B-efore you go to bed
A-llow the Lord to hear you pray; 
L-etting your life open up
I-n doing His will the next day.
S-tay focused on your vow, 
N-o more reason to stop; 
O-bey the Lord at all times, 
M-ake your life
O-pen up.

Haul back from Winter Fairy land the wondrous Christmas tree
Open up the boxes with bright ornaments and all the trimming.

Hear the kids shout for Santa Claus and Frosty the Snowman oh so merry.
Obedient they are too, like little elves, with visions of toys, their joy brimming

Harness up the horses; get the sled. It’s Jingle bells time for you and me.
Over the snow, the sleigh bells ring. Memories like these will not be dimming.

Love and Promises

N-ight chill has been turning
I-nto an early rise of the sun; 
K-ind weather has occurred
A-fter the shadows are gone.

T-hirteenth day of the second month
A-nother morn has broken; 
N-ew dawn is now shining, 
E-rasing the haze in the open.
D-o feel my earnest desire to greet you with warm wishes; 
O-pen up your heart and mind to the Almighty's love and promises.

Pen Snore

It's been some time
I wrote a rhyme
Pen up as before
But now I snore
I read another's lines
Hoping to inspire mine
Even just a bit
I don't wanna quit

For people wait on my light
Some lives hung on it
I must again write
My gift not delete

I ndecisive love
N ever losing touch

T wice is a deadly game.
H ope is always there
E ven when love is indecisive.

M y life is attached to yours.

D o not let go.

F or I am in the mood for love.
O ur total eclipse of the heart
R eal time we will spend together.

L ies have ended.
O ur minds are at ease.
V eracity we promise.
E ffervescent is our vitality.

A gony is not our thing.
G iving each other happiness
A ll we want is bliss.
I n this game of kisses
N ear is our dynasty.

I am in the mood for love once again.
      Our destiny is sealed and we are best friends.
