Since this topic has been bouncing around, lets do it!



Now showcasing on this thread is the World's top poets performing for you live ! (for a few minutes, that is):applause:



Please remember that all materials should be original or credit given to the author. No material can be copied without the express permission of the author or you will be breaking one of the 10 Commandments! mmm...mmm..You might need to read up and figure out which one it is....



Ok...lets have some fun...and enjoyment!





THE MENTOR



I see as you are

Not with eyes of prejudice or fault

But with anticipation of your every move...



Your voice is like a melody waiting to be sung

I hang onto every note with envy

Contemplating the next harmonious passage...



Consumed by the thing I fear most

I relish in the fragrance of courage and strength

Emmanating from you and am totally captivated...



Deep within me lies the essence of your soul

That I might someday walk as you walk now

Never measuring another by wealth but rather by

character portrayed...



Love does not describe what you mean to me

My Teacher, Guide, and Friend

May I someday be the reflection of this Priceless Encounter!



( this poem was written about a very special teacher who helped me to recognize my potential...years ago)



Robin

Goodnight, Robin:zzzz:See you tomorrow:waving:

One more to share; then I'm getting to sleep as well.



This Is The Key



This is the key of the kingdom:

In that kingdom there is a city.

In that city there is a town.

In that town there is a street.

In that street there is a lane.

In that lane there is a yard.

In that yard there is a house.

In that house there is a room.

In that room there is a bed.

On that bed there is a basket.

In that basket there are some flowers.

Flowers in a basket.

Basket on a bed.

Bed in the room.

Room in the house.

House in the yard.

Yard in the lane.

Lane in the street.

Street in the town.

Town in the city.

City in the kingdom.

Of the kingdom this is the key.

Let me tell you I don�t write poems;

Back when in school, English?

Didn�t have a clue!

But some �pushes� you sent Robin, Hedge, Rev. & crew

so here it goes a few lines I construe�



As for my fellows who wished me Happy birthday,

many, many thanks to you!!!:glow:



To the Rev from North Carolina

Gentle, expression from his mind,

For me? A birthday wish he sent!

He is so kind!!! :angel:



To the man God called from his mother�s womb

California is where he lives,

My "bestest", my special one

I just want to say I love you! :hearts:

I've been re-reading a book of poetry written by Ruth Bell Graham. She's a wonderful writer. Thought I'd share one of my favorites.



PRAY



PRAY ! When all your soul on tiptoe stands

in wistful eagerness to talk with God;

put out your hands, God bends to hear;

it would be sin not to draw near.



PRAY ! When gray inertia creeps through your soul,

as through a man who fights the cold,

then growing languid slumbereth,

and slumbering knows not it's death.



PRAY ! When swamped in sin and shame

and nowhere else to pin the blame

but on your own will and waywardness;

God knows you, Loves you nonetheless.



SO........... PRAY.



" Pray when in the mood, it is sinful to neglect such an opportunity. Pray when not in the mood, it is dangerous to be in such a condition."



God Bless All Of You,

Deborah

The Porcupine



Any hound a porcupine nudges

Can't be blamed for harboring grudges.

I know one hound that laughed all winter

At a porcupine that sat on a splinter. :ROFL:



The Octopus



Tell me,O Octopus, I begs,

Is those things arms or is they legs ?

I marvel at thee, Octopus;

If I were thou, I'd call me us. :ROFL





Good Morning !

I'm experiencing a dry spell;

Guess coffee I should smell.

That's what Robin would surely say;

And Bruce must have gone away ! BOO HOO:goofball:







The 2 :ROFL:poems were written by Ogden Nash.



:peace: Rev

Hedge must be fishin' again!....:eat:



Good morning, y'all...Coffee's brewing! Hey Rev...are you awake, yet???? Been waiting to holler at you this morning...oh.....that's the south coming out in me, again !!! Some people just keep you up way toooo late at night! Not mentioning names, of course....:dancingp:



Woke up at five instead of six

But I am wide awake...

Put on the biscuits

They smell good

I like the kind that flakes!



The eggs are on

The clothes laid out

The shower running wild...

I have to let my Binksy out

Before he his fur is riled...



So may you have a blessed day

And keep yourself in line...

Remember God is riding

on the seat so....

Give Him time!!



May you all have a blessed day and know that God loves you in spite of yourself!:peace:



Love you bunches and bunches! Robin
