Premium Member My Hands Today
My Hands Today My hands are getting old today. They are getting old right in front of my eyes. I suppose the rest of my face is following, But I can not see that happening. There is some peace in that, But my hands…? I don’t mind hard work. I never minded hard work. I liked hard...

CASEY’S SECOND CHANCE!
The outlook wasn’t brilliant for the Mudville nine that day; The score stood four to two, with but an inning left to play. And when Cooney fell at first, and Barrows met the same, A hush of sorrow drifted down upon the homeward game. A scattered few were rising, hats pulled low to shade their pride, While others stared in...

If We Begin Again
If I start all over again, This time, will you fall in love with me? If I play your favorite songs, Will you find yourself lost in me? If I call you for an evening tea, Will you come with a bouquet of roses, carefree? If I buy red bangles just to see you smile, Will you wear them with pride, even...

Second Chance
He had often tried before but always with no success Always another closed door or making more of a mess He was really at his wits end where he just didn’t care Maybe some things don’t mend for life just isn’t fair A few years had past and he rarely gave it a thought On his list...

Premium Member Second Chance
Into the magic, bubbling cauldron, I jumped in, my mind, a cacophony of din. I had thrown my life away. So, this is how it would end - into a boiling hell, descend? When I was born, did fate portend I would die without a friend on this decisive dismal day. Yet, this dreadful drop, my life didn't stop. Instead, I rose...

Premium Member Second Chance original
If I had a second chance, I would have erased all my past mistakes, I would have turned all my wrong decisions into the right choices, I would have changed the course of my life. If I had a second chance, I would not have been alone in this world, I would have shared more time, love, and affection with her, I...

Second Chance
I'll remember gandpa telling me There are no two identical popcorn in this world Each corn has gone through it's own story Just like our lives We don't know what will happen in the future Relationships between people are also the same Moving from one stage to another It may be confusing But we have to bravely move forward You gave...

Another Chance To Dance
I have seen that house a hundred times, The one upon which the old vine climbs. So poignant and so melancholy, That place had once been the omphali. Now it was abandoned, dark, and drear And seeing it made me shed a tear. I always wondered what sort of joy, And happiness the house did enjoy. Was there pain and hurt and deep...

I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning. - J. B. Priestley After the sun rises, gentling the morning, Beautiful light in the sky, hope is dawning. Captive of the joy, such peaceful wonder, Destined to breathe feelings...

A Second Chance
Looking back down upon the world from magnificent twilight skies Makes me wonder if more could have come forth from my life What is taken for granted is what impacts most on already burdened souls I’ll beg, I’ll plea, I’ll get down on my knees, to be gifted to return A second chance is often too late to change...
