Just Another Day

Birthday
Special day

Day we reckon as special
Deviate from normal 

Indulge in celebration
Spotlighting attention

None in Nature ever celebrates 
All perform their usual duties

Stars, Sun, Moon, Trees, Rivers, Hills 
All Wonders, none yearns for wishes 

Birth, Death ends of same spectrum 
Life in between is real celebration

Celebrate moments with gratitude 
Wish well, help others gain altitude

Birthday
Just another day

HERE I OVERCOME WITH YOUR BLESSINGS O LORD

You have given me the ability to overcome,
Here I do to you proudly come,
To tell you how I overcame the evil,
Helping humanity to rise and punish the devil.

I succeeded with your blessings,
And now come to you,
All I need is hope,
In my mind showing me the ways to cope.

I respect you and love you,
And I also wish well to humanity,
And promise you that I will abolish the evil too,
And save the world from insanity.

Tomes of Twi

a curious coin flipped free and fell forever fishing forgotten wondrous waves woven wide in a wishing well. 
on it wandered heeding head and telling tale of a decisive certain self as written in "the tomes of twi," 
(tw0 t1mes as binary transcribed, preserved there once for each possible i) 
deep deep down in mother drowned the coin where by and by 
such hopeful heat grew glorious great and there where through and through 
rock flows into and knows each other as it's one true self. 
the coin once tossed now at a loss for ways as it draws near: 
it felt the sway it knew so clear at start was at an end. 
no longer flipped, but rather dripped, 
as the heart it did approach with glee. 
shuddering round and up and down it came to rest right here: 
and here, the tomes of twi concur, some miracle occured...
for as a dot. 
will light a line
the coin this time did rightly left decree:
to be nothing more than mystery?
the one true way, as some might say, 
was told that day upon a sphere, 
and there we see ourselves entwined 
upon a perfect mirror.

Wish Me Well

For all those who wish me well
I wish well on you too
And my words are pure, you can tell
From how I regard you too
Cause I always care not to cross you
And I care too much not to be rude
For it's cause of all of you
That I'm considered any good 
For you listen to all I have to say
Reading in between the lines
And when we do get to May
I'll have more poems here, cause my mind has landmines
That trap me to trap words in my head
Beautiful words that you all just read

When a Woman Speaks

let's talk with
        the women...
        let us understand
        their views,
         wishes,
        their yearnings... lift
        flights together...
        Let's learn a little of
        femininity is relevant... !
        But don't realize why
        we are lucky to have been
         bestowed for confidants,
         our friends wish anything further...
         At least from us... ! wish well :
         Understanding.
         It's characteristic of the chauvinism in which we
         we entangled for life, conceive that
         it's something else...
         If you intend what intimacy
          is "come on", isn't it...
          It's so simply trusting,
          and trust must not be lost,
          never in friendship...!

Premium Member Wish Well

Though I may be well-spoken,
And I may be well-read, 
And I may be well-dressed,
Because I may be well-bred,
I may have good intentions,
And I may be well-loved,
And I may be well-off,
And be well-thought-of,
But until living for Jesus
Has become my life’s goal
I'll never know in my heart
That all's well with my soul

Paths

Our paths still cross from time to time
perhaps they always will
The hardest part in all of this
you know, I love you still...

I see your posts from time to time
can't help but read a few
But right before I try to post
I turn and close the view...

I hope you'll always stay the same
and all your dreams come true
Find everything your heart desires
success, in all you do...

Premium Member The Wishing Well

Drop a coin in exchange for a dream
Is it fame wealth health love or revenge
Something selfish something wise
Something to share someone to care
Just a hope or a prayer a dream or a wish
All in a toss of a coin to the bottom
Bottom of the well beneath its waters
Coins in exchange for pieces of souls
Thousands of coins each a desire to bestow
Year after year the coins it collects
A toss for fun to others too real
Whose wish well it grant
The Wishing Well

Mousey

I love my Mousey,
She lives in a field in BrushCreek, Tennessee,
Walking with her her of cattle,
As happy as she will ever be.

Without this there would be only she,
And i could make her as happy as me,

I miss her immensly, for thee i wish well,
For everyday i wish she wont sell, 
And I could show her in the Dekalb County Fair,
I would sell never an ounce of her.
Hehe not even one of her little white hairs.

Even when all the way over there,
Mine she is for no one but me to share, if I do so happen to dare.

Cute as a button,
A button her nose may well be,
Where I first touched her sweet little body,
Not once but twice sweetly,
For wherever she goes I could spot her, along with her sister and mother.

Many a mile away, for she is not at all,
Not at all what you would say a little grayish thing.

But a heifer who grows daily,
Only to shove the motherly tears away.
In my eyes though, she will always be, forever and always, my baby girl, my sweetie,
my beautiful girl, my Mousey

Genie In the Bottle...

Genie in the bottle...
     Thank you for granting three wishes to me; so here they are...
     Allow me to explain through my poetry, for I am the fallen star!

Genie in the bottle...
     My first wish would be, to live in a world of peace and equality for all eternity!
     Because of all the violence equals death and silence and that's just not a world for me!!

Genie in the bottle...
     My second wish, well let's see...How bout a cure for every disease!?
     Because cancer has affected me, and millions of other families!

Genie in the bottle...
     My third and final wish is simply the best, the best one out of the group
     And this comes from the heart in my chest, that every poets dreams come true here on   
     Poetry Soup!!!
