Imaginary City

"Imaginary city"

"Seeing our world and how it is
                   today.
confusing and heartless it seems
                   to be.
a change is needed in a positive
                   way.
less hate and more love is what
            we need to see.
If we all had a choice to pick an
            imaginary city.
to make it real and make it our
                  own.
i would make it full of kindness
          with no self pity.
compassion and heart in people
          would be shown.
No problems or sickness to worry
                  about.
children feeling loved and cared.
life would be easy but perfection
       would have it's doubt.
positive differences would always 
               be shared.
If we could make every city real.
 dreams that we wish can come
                   true.
but in a imaginary city the touch
of realism we wish so bad to feel.
is a miracle we need hopefully to
             come through"

The Haunted House

"The air was crisp but there was
               no moon.
shadows seemed to dance around.
knowing i had to leave real soon.
i want out of this "Twilight zone"-
          looking town.
The road turned to dust and rock.
as my feet could only run so fast.
  seeing up ahead about a block
a fog of nothing that i would have
                 to pass.
Slowly i walk as my heart beats crazy.
a cemetery comes in to my view.
my eyes see less of the fog being hazy.
daring to enter what should i do?
I slowly enter where tombstones i see.
the quietness is so silent with no wind.
i creep closer feeling i may have to pee.
scared to think what's around the bend.
Something green come's to my vision.
getting closer waiting to hear a Boo.
suddenly sighing and glad i made the 
                  decision.
because hey,it's just the "Mystery Machine"
            with Scooby Doo"

Soulmate

"When you grow up with a best friend who
   has always been there and always will.
sharing a strong bond of each other's heart
          what they can only feel.
When you know a best friend for many years.
     the first thing is loyalty and trust.
soulmates has many meanings but realism is
                 always a must.
So having a best friend as a soulmate for life.
 something that can never be bought or sold.
soulmates stay together always and forever &
             together growing old"

Just Being Me

"I use my mind for the usage of thoughts.
i use my heart to express the realism that
                keeps me true.
The passion of many emotions and feelings 
 that sometimes get tangled up with knots.
Differences i see is what i like to do.
I never take life for granted and never take
               people that way to.
With me the truth is always planted and it's
     something i'd never think to do.
I'm a person who likes just being me and
    a person who will never back down.
Handing out smiles with respect to see and
          people who just always frown.
My love for writing is being able to see.
  from eyes that look deep into within.
      A person who likes just being me.
   The starting is always the hardest and
  i never know how each of my poems will
                             end"

Sunset of Love

"Waves are calm as the day is ending.
    wings fly overhead so carefree.
a beautiful sunset the sky is sending.
 two hearts for each other is all they
                  wish to see.
A sunset of love brings out passion &
                        fire.
their surroundings they fully seem to
                      ignore.
eyes that smile with such dangerous
                      desire.
as the sun starts setting down more.
The waves are still calm as the wings
         have flown their own way.
hand in hand they also leave the sunset
                      behind.
tomorrow will bring another beautiful day.
as the sunset of love will bring a lot more
                  hearts to find"

Dreams-Social Justice Contest

"The soul of a person can be hurt 
 along with pain inside their heart.
  Life is so unpredictable and very
 crazy where there's so much hate
  and less love which we all need.
  Wars need to stop with all the 
fighting and show friendship and
  a good faith where we can all
work together and reunite as just
                    one.
The president is human yet he can
  try to make life just a little less
                  strained.
Stop racist fools because there is
       no color in Gods eyes.
 Judgement and prejudice is not
          needed or wanted.
some dreams are meant to come
                   true.
 We all can only dream can't we?"

Happy Birthday To a Beautiful Lady

"Happy birthday to a beautiful lady"

"A happy birthday to a beautiful lady.
our eyes have never met but i'm sure
     your smile is as lovely as you.
 sending a piece of my heart that also
 has a rose of friendship i included to.
 Generations to come will hear stories.
some may not be in text books to find. 
 memories will never be forgotten as
  they will stay in everyone's mind.
A special lady like yourself must have 
  seen differences others never will.
some had to be happy and some sad.
as God creates everything we see and
                      we feel.
So happy "100 years" being beautiful
                 inside and out.
sharing your life of planted memories
will always be what your hearts about"

Mysterious Writer

There's a writer whose passion is to write.
                               but loves staying mysterious.
                         with poetry that hopefully will excite.
                        entering a contest the poem just may
                                              win.
                         The question is where does the poem
                                             begin.
                       The writers words come from their heart.
                         may take over an hour just to start.
                      it's not real easy to show expression and
                                             thought.
                      Some writers may disagree but my heart
                           sometimes stays in to a knot.
                   Paper is only used for a pen only used to write
                                                on.
                    words of expressions that show where they
                                          should belong.
                    So being a Mysterious writer is kind of fun.
                     So there you have my Ballad and now i'm
                                                  done.

Memories Remain

You miss the eyes that only two could share.
                           you miss the laughter that was always
                                                    there.
                           You miss the smiles that stayed around 
                                                 each day.
                             speaking with both hearts that words
                                    weren't needed to say.
                              Now there's no more eyes to share.
                           only souvenirs of love that you keep so
                                                    dear.
                             Memories remain but again no more
                                                     eyes.
                               your'll always regret the day you had 
                                         to say your good by's.

Everyday Life-Contamination Contest

"So many meanings on "Contamination" that
 we all forget what the real meanings of it all
                           can be.
This crazy world that can use an examination.
Definitions of hate,evil,judgement & being so
dishonest is what a lot of people only seem to
                            see.
Ignoring someone's open heart to a kindness
              is what a lot of people do.
 Hiding behind beliefs that show up from day
                           to day.
Why commit to the same thoughts that will
            stay "contaminated" with you.
Messing with the innocence of minds can be
             filled with pain in every way.
Seeing a world that can self destruct without
                enough time to act fast.
Warnings are never given so what will we do?
when "contamination's" are staying toxic and
                         here to last.
Needing to stop all the "Contamination's" that
create death when it's allowed to flow on thru"
