Premium Member The Story Of My Life

A 5-Liner on your Life Poetry Contest

The Story Of My Life

When my husband's infidelity thrashed
Into a lit dumpster our marriage dashed
A storybook is blackened
And the pages are so saddened
For he booked the wrongful passage that crashed
Form: Limerick

The Storybook

Hold me close, hold me tight,
don’t let me fall asleep tonight.

Whisper songs into my ear,
they will make the stories dissapear

I want to see the world behind our eyes,
and travel far behind the skies.

Take my hand and follow my lead,
Together we will succeed.
Form: Rhyme


Wonderland

When you get lost in Wonderland
Or Neverland with Peter Pan
Having fun with the Darling clan,
I have always wanted to look
Right inside a storybook.
I want to see the Tin Man walk
And to see an animal talk.
Where can I see this?
Where can I look?
Right inside a storybook.

Make Believe

I wear your ring
as I pretend
everything's perfect 
in Neverland

Thoughts of you
that may never come true
but are perfect
in my Field of dreams

Oh how I miss
the way we would kiss
with the perfect hold
in my Fairytale

I speak of you 
in everything I do
amazed by the perfect scenes
in my Storybook

all in my Land of Make Believe

The Last Blast of Fire

Before the world 
       became home to the life we now 
know 
an inferno of fire surrounded it 
  The heat created life 
as the darkness 
    was finally shattered
  Little do they realize 
     how the begining 
 came about 
No Adam and Ever here 
  Just some atoms combining 
     the storybook is itself half closed
yet fortunately not completely forgotten

Perfection

Perfection, 
Where should I look?
In the sky above
Or haven
Or in a storybook

Perfection, 
Is there such a thing?
Is it love?
Or innocence
Under the angel wing

Perfection, 
Who can that  be?
A stranger?
Maybe a friend?
Or just simple me  


Perfection, 
Look deep in your heart
Is it the beauty?
Or happiness?
Perfection is the..... Art

Acceptance

Goodbye storybook romance
Goodbye motherhood
Hello singlehood
I'm putting my dreams away
and accepting the bittersweet reality
that you're someone else's child
Just for today
I relish the memory of holding you
Fresh and newborn
that I'll never let go of
Just to see you again and touch your sweet face
Is today's fantasy
and tomorrow's hopeful reality

Premium Member seared into my artist brain

wispy chiffon curtains parted a tiny bit
I faced a pink storybook horizon
a sailboat glided past,
completing the canvas
making it surreally magical

the dried flowers matched
I ran for my camera
hoping to capture this
so I could paint it at a later time

alas, it never looked the same
not ever that glorious
luckily, it was seared into
my artist mind
art

Storybook Moon

If someone told you, “Draw the moon
And try to get it right,”
The picture you’d depict would be
What’s hanging there tonight…

The perfect crescent, all a’glow,
Like in a storybook
And it looked less like it was real
With every glance I took.

There aren’t many nights like this
When it is opportune
To behold that classic sliver
Of a fairy tale-type moon.
Form: Rhyme

Natural Man

Is there a natural man,
The walrus said?
Whose ideas are bright
And feet are not lead?

Who says what he means
And means what he says?
Who is capable of love, an
All of the best?

The prince charming
We long for as children
Come out of the storybook
As is written

Please, come hither, soon,
For life without you
Is like an island on which
You are marooned

Premium Member You and I

our pace of life
gracefully transmuting 
into golden retirement years
so much more 
still to discover
with the time
we are blessed with
together 
authors of our own
storybook ending
hand and in hand 
toward the sunset

Christopher Robin

Christopher Robin a friend from long ago,
His author A.A. . Milne.

His friends Winnie-the-Pooh, and Tiger
Delightful and kind.

He was seen with his friends,
Champion of storybooks.

Real folklore  hero,
Beloved storybook friend,,

Colorful character ,
Visiting his companions from the acre wood.

Beloved and read by society,
What miracle this time passage.

Premium Member Freckled Finish

Tripped the electricity in the forest,
tumbled to a faceplate on the ground;
The shock raised the pulse in my wrist;

A storybook vision may confound,
star-crossed sits doomed to diminish;
Ground yourself in nature’s mound;

Let yourself revive and replenish,
kiss all the petals of a wildflower;
Renew your freckled faded finish;

Bathe within a rumbling rain-shower,
untamed fuels an aura of power.

A Nook and a Storybook

Would I love a book and a nook?
My fantasy world, imaginary,
To me, every book is worth a look,
Even an old dictionary.

Would I love a nook and a book?
Meet some new friends for free,
I could sit and read in my cosy nook,
any book, like Pictionary.

Would I like a nook and a book?
Yes, for these I would trade the Earth?
Reading books, in a nook, no sooks,
Yes, nooks and books are what it's worth!

Fighting the Inner Man

I need to change my story
Confusion and unhappiness walking hand in hand 
I need some directions, a real plan  
I am in the center of a personal war fighting with the inner man
I feel like I can’t win this war 
I keep praying for a miracle 
Why is it so hard to turn this page, I need a new story with a happy ending 
I am hating the person in the mirror 
what a confusion ...this is constant sadness
I need a storybook end .

To Find

the look in her eye drew me in
and the depth of her mind destroyed me
in a most alluring way

heartbeats sparked
and I only had one choice
but to stay

in the heat of the moment
in the glow of the night

she captured something
something simple
I thought I had put away

soothing comfort with her eyes
dazzling senses with her mind

a chapter unwritten
a poetic storybook 
that only she could bring
and only I could find

Premium Member Glorious



Light fell upon the river
Dancing in a crystalline ballet
A sight breeze brought the trees
To a magnificent performance 
Twisting and turning each leaf

I sat at the rivers edge
And plucked a wild daisy
Dreaming of the day
When love had captured my heart
And innocence was a storybook
Of all my daring ways

And yet I still hold 
A heart of youthful dream
For all the joyous moments
Still linger with love today



Anything's Possible

Entry level
Just a beginner
Made a mistake 
Was deemed a sinner 

Blue cloud in a red sky
Offset from the rest
Light heart and a clear head
Weight off the chest 

Thought she owned it all
When she blossomed into a flower
No responsibility
But wanted all the power

Wisdom with age
Overseeing the past 
Should have enjoyed more
Life moved too fast 

Storybook ending
Isn't realistic 
Anythings possible 
It pays to be optimistic

God's Storybook Kingdom

Silently falls the snow,
Covering the streets and houses,
A snowman sits in yonder meadow,
Gazing out at the pedestrians,
Walking by, dressed in their winter wear,
The houses are touched with snow,
A winter's delight,
I like to stay at home and look at the snow,
Through my window,
Like a Christmas card.
The skiiers love this weather,
Dressed in their winter wear,
Like a winter paradise,
Blessed by God.

Premium Member A Nook and a Storybook

I traveled through time
 My imagination I took
 where adventures abound
 in a nook and a storybook

 Up the beanstalk I'd climb
  And many treasures I'd take
  Then away I would run
 Before the giant awakes 
  

 I'd travel to Lilliput
 over the waves of the sea
 and ended up ashore
 where little people I'd see

 Then I'll sleep a long time
 and wake up with wrinkles
  with a very long beard
   Like Rip Van Winkle!
