My Simplest Form

I am broken
that is my simplest form.
Not in shards,
but in folded faults
like paper creased too many times
it becomes soft,
almost sacred.

They called me whole
when I was quiet.
They mistook my silence
for resolution.

But silence
was just the breath I held
between scream
and surrender.

I walked the corridors of other people's love
like a thief in borrowed shoes,
returning everything
except myself.

I am the ink

Premium MemberTHE SIMPLEST SOLUTION

Today’s blessing comes via Bob Marley
who, like me, believed sometimes the simplest solutions
to the problems of the world are before us…in plain sight:

The moment we realize we are 
One love
One heart
and we can all get together
we will finally feel all right.

Premium MemberThe Simplest Love Story

Some people say there are no simple love stories…
and plainly they have stated…
if it’s simple it must not be love
for love is complicated…

They sight example after example
and believe this with all certainty!
But there are others who look at love 
and beg to disagree.

For them, love is simple..
It’s when they realize they’re no longer alone…
and when

Premium MemberThe Simplest of Thank-You's

Can I thank you in passing for helping 'me'
  for easing 'my way' into the Presidency

                    *******
Bush Jr. might have thanked Clinton for an economy
  that produced a budget surplus, amazingly

But he focused on

The Simplest of Pleasure

The glorious big television 
The cable box, dustless as can be be
Flanked by two flamess candles
Dancing ever so cheerfully
The mahogany table on which it sits
The flickering flamelike heater, right beneath it.
A cup of fresh coffee with a dollop of cream.
Making the experience heavenly

Premium MemberThe Simplest of Equations

Make no mistake, women and men are different
but together there is a greater strength
Separated from each other-life tends to bend.
weakening wellbeing and peace of mind
There is a trend to homogenize
blend the genders into one
for the sake of P. C and equality
but equality has nothing to do with 
what jewels are between the thighs.
it's a state

Premium MemberSeasons Simplest To Know

SIMPLEST  to know
Spring beauty floral flowing
The steamy summer
The autumn leaves crinkle down
untouched pristine snow fall found

Snow ball fight  and flight  yes,
Suppressed now tired and lazed 
Snow angels there's an angle
Heaps of snow on cars 
Snow plow isn't plowing now

It was time to go
Inside for hot cocoa

You Are the Simplest of the Sea

You are the seamless simplicity.

See me sweetheart,heart i ask you.

Today,add life together with you.
If you say so,leave everyone to know.

You are the seamless simplicity.

Today I will add my heart to you with

The Simplest of Words

I could package it different,
  I could present it complex,
  —I could try to impress and deceive

But the message eternal,
  and the one truly spoken,
  —needs the simplest of words to conceive

Premium MemberThe Simplest Choice

In the realm of hidden things; 
contemplated revelations ring.
To bring the light; a hearts delight
and clear away, the darkest night.

Whispers from our unseen friends, 
where wisdom's growing, till life ends.  
The soul, it is a breath of God;
divinity comes, when towards heaven, we trod.

In dreams and meditation we can see, 
the end of every

The Simplest of Things

Sometimes we overlook the simplest of things
God laid before our eyes
Like the beauty we see in all His birds
Or the majesty of the skies.

It’s the small things that surround us
That we never seem to see
Or the things that are big that we overlook
Like the tallness of a tree.

There’s a peaceful sound that calms our hearts
And

The Simplest Things That

The simplest things that bring a smile to my face
Hearing a new born cries
Seeing a father cut his first born child umbilical cord
Seeing a butterfly breaking out of their cocoon 
Seeing ants work together 
Seeing a child ride his/her bike for the first time
Seeing my child graduate from Kindergarten thereafter first grade & now out

The Simplest Joy

A treasure more precious 
Than gems or gold, 
And paid for by most 
At any price, 
What rejoices the heart 
A hundredfold: 
To see on a loved one’s 
Lips a smile.

In the Simplest of Times

When does the most powerful moment of your life strike you?
It lands like a ton of bricks in the simplest of times.
It hits you not at that moment, but a moment much later.
True impact strikes so hard that it is only felt after the fact.
A calm after the storm.
The beauty can hardly be seen until

Write Me the Simplest Song

Write me the simplest song
and make your true words sound
like you were talking to me,
because it isn't easy to say
what one really feels inside;
find those words and capturate me!


Honesty is always the best part of the truth,
each feeling must find its worth...
and however silly or stupid it seems to you,
express it with the confidence of
