Love’s young dream should not be jeered, leaving the recipient in tears.

"Sometime life is unseen. What remains then shows up."

|
Never seek guidance from someone who has shown little empathy, it will add to your misery; instead, rely on the ones who believe in your ability to transform a dump into a palace.

|
Any senseless poem that fails the reader's expectation should be tossed into the trash bin. Write something that inspires,, let emotions flow with harmony.

|
What is awake, if not open to our own growth and new inspiration which when in tune with spirit is infinite? Awake should simply mean alert and nothing more. Only a fool thinks he really knows anything.

|
At no time nor under any condition should a politician be treated like a five-year-old at a daycare.

“You have to be able to validate yourself as a Poet. There are thousands of poems floating around and not everyone will enjoy your particular poem > neither should you expect them to > that’s OK. But someone out there will resonate or you would not have been called upon to articulate it.” GhairoDanielsQuotes

Just because you know how to cry does not mean you should attend every funeral.

|
If I’m gonna claim to be best…I’ve gotta step up to the plate and show I’m the best…if I can’t do that I’d be telling another hopeless lie.

|
When I add water to the birdbath each morning, lots of bees show up to take drinks while birds approvingly tweeting. The little colorful love-birds are the bravest, flapping around me while in my connected process. Water, birds, bees, dogs, fleas...somehow it all works out for the best when each does its small part.

|
A poem should be a gift, not a grab.

|
Only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches.

|
Don't loose your friend Because Being alone is not a choice, it's a decision....
Don't take it...
When your life is giving you a shoulder to cry
Don't push it

What is left unsaid
should be heard the most.

I now stay away from mirrors as much as possible. Rely on my wife's blessed lies. Just as handsome as ever! She gets eye-shots every 4 weeks to keep what is left of her vision. The Golden Years.

Mirrors only know what we show them...and not the depth inside.

|
In sympathy for our feathered friends, 'To kill two birds with one stone' should be 'To stone two birds with one puff.'

|
We should be talking to people about God-evangelism, and talking to God about people-prayer. J.I. Packer

The first signs of growing old, is struggling to get your shoes on.

|
We can't have peace outside if no peace inside. Peace inside doesn't stem from peace outside. Roots in the soul. Give an addict a million dollars and in short time he will be dead or broke again and yet an addict. Such peace is short lived, as those quick blossoming seeds poorly cultivated. Plant in the loving nature of Jesus. And the Father will show us abundance.

|
p.s. life is short, not capturing moments makes it shorter...

|
With me poetry is about subduing one's conditioned mental reflexes, and allowing purer inert forces to take control of the stylus. In short, poetry should be about transcending the physical into realms of the metaphysical. The heart of great writing is spiritual and not commercial. One must take the "I" out of a work as much as creatively possible.

|
Even though you can
You don't have to land shoulder
for everyone's tears
'cause that's one way to drown yourself.

|
If change be law, then let its seal be shown;
if breach be grace, let grace be overthrown.

|
You'll know you've reached the endless shore when you sail into the sea of nothing.

|
You have become eternity, the measureless shore of my undiscovered country.

|
Expect the unexpected perfect. It shows up, generally unnoticed, when you least expect it.

Every question has an answer but it should be complete!!

If you are writing a poem, you are, or should be, writing a play. All poetry is, by the fundamental nature of poetry, dramatic poetry.

|
Courage isn't always about showing up at grand gestures, but the act of persisting even when the heart is weak and worn. Such courage is noble!
