Orange Sentiments
orange sentiments stick out of the seriousness of today
tantalizing me, teasing me to want to laugh, sing and play
I feel younger, more worthy, a hero, someone who could be adored.
If you would have said I was a mere human I would have been floored.

Repeating Sentiments from her Mommy
We had to divorce daddy the five-year-old said
Her mommy had planted this inside her head
He is uncourtable she announced with sass
What does that mean? I asked the tiny lass
We are angry with him, Mommy and I
A tiny tear slid out of her little left eye
Daddy still loves you, I told her, of course
He got me

birds know our sentiments
The birds understand us, it’s true,
They understand us better than men,
Observe the grey heron when it is afraid,
listen to the Robin
Who asks to play with you,
Go for the lint
She doesn’t want any wrong notes,
The birds understand us,
The thief has always known you,
She knows how far to go,
They understand us better than our ministers,
Better than the

Fourteen Syllable Sentiments
Always Remember

A garage sale music box plays, "I will always love you".

She tumbled from the sky - what a lucky lad was I.

Sentiments
Was I part of your twisted fantasy?
Igniting emotions that you could never reciprocate?
The audacity.
Leaving over the slightest discomfort!
It was silly of Me,
to mistake all your red flags for fixable nuances.
Bending over backward to accommodate you,
I wish I had enough rage to hate you,
I can't seem to reach that degree.
All I have are questions,

Sentiments of the Heart
I saw him standing there acting as if he doesn't care
I saw him standing there with eyes open wide and
a countenance that is filled with pride, I wasn't sure
what to do whether to wait or to go through the gate
But his venom was spreading in the square
long before the multitude got there
Anger start

Sincere Sentiments
Mellow music and a lark's sweet song ~
My memories recall devout days of
lasting love and tender thoughts.
No wistful weeping or trickling tears
slowly shed with dire dread
free fall from my expressive eyes.
I've been blessed with a happy heart.

Dark Sentiments
I thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new
Because I thought about you yesterday
And days before that too.
I think of you in silence
And often speak your name in my sleep
But you never notice though you sleep next to me.
Seven billion smiles around but yours is my favourite.
Your smile leaves me defenseless
But I

Sentiments
Releasing these poisonous thoughts that often pierces repetitive lingering thoughts stored in one’s mind. Look towards the sun and release those poisonous thoughts to shine on you, allowing rays of warmth and positive energy to flow, sipping some herbal tea and casting those unwanted thoughts, no distractions only invoking positive energies and allowing sentiments to

A Collection of Sentiments
A Collection of Sentiments
To the whole world:
I hope for thou and pray there’s still good left
Yet no matter how low my expectations go,
Thou still manage to disappoint me.
Sometimes I see a light out in the darkness,
But not long after,
It’s tainted.
To all my friends:
Thou art the reason I still hope for the world,
Despite the evidence

Environmental Picture Sentiments-
Chance nautical corvettescent mileage
Of the topical travels terrains
Amongst the bonding trips
Of rain collecting in the waters
Playing pines lake valleys
Rivers running amongst solitary confining drifting pinewoods
Colossus forest mountainous trees
Timber fallings burning ambers
Crawling igniting forcing steams
As the rain flower converges on the populous dreams
