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)

Hey y'all...Just wanted to tuck you in one last time...

Always know that you have an advocate with the Father and that He hears you even when you can't hear yourself.

I have loved this forum and you all have helped me so much but I work two jobs, go to school, as well as church activities.

Now it's time for you to step up to the plate with the poetry and be blessed. You will find that by giving yourself to others God will give back to you in ways that money cannot buy. It's really not about me or you but, rather, HIM !

_________________________________________________

Time tonight to say goodbye

To all my awesome friends...

And wish for you the best of things

That this ol' heart can send...



Binks and I have really loved

The joy of night and morn...

A simple little fellowship

A special time was born...



And now I pass the torch to you

But I'll be stopping by...

Occasionally a little peek

I'll miss you, I can't lie................................:purpleangel:

_________________________________________________

Time to turn the lights off...give us a big hug and know that

God's arms can handle anything...Just let Him hold you close.



Love you bunches and bunches....Robin

THE EAGLE AND THE SWAN



Come along with me today

I�ll tell you all a story�

About a swan so lovely and

An eagle all in glory�



She was so unobtrusive,

When she first came on the scene�

Quietly among the reeds

With tucked and folded wing..



He had been flying very high

His head was bowing low�

When he caught a glimpse of her

His spiral lost control�



Her neck so long and lovely

And her body full of grace�

Her movement on the water

Made him lose his kingly pace�



He stood and stared in wonderment

She wasn�t like the rest�

And then she turned and smiled at him

Which took his very breath�



Should he approach or stay right there

Where it was so familiar�

Or take a chance to know this one

Who seemed so strange, peculiar�



He rose above her head so she could see him full in flight.

She stood amazed, in wonderment

At such a handsome sight.



Although the wind had battered him

He stood with such great strength

And then he opened up his wings

Of great proportion, length�



And held her closest to his heart

Protected at all times

With wisdom, courage, aptitude

Safe from the cold, outside�



Now I am asking all of you

Is this a likely bond�.

Between the mighty eagle

And the very lowly swan?

An Angel



An angel looked from heaven just



To see the earth below...



And saw the most amazing thing



Something she longed to know...



She heard the music playing



A slow and rhythmic beat...



The kind that makes you want to sway



From head, then heart and feet...



She looked up to the Master



And softly whispered "Please"....



He nodded that He understood



And sent her on a breeze...



She entered very quietly



The mask upon her face...



The beauty from within her heart



Illuminated grace....



He turned and saw her standing there



His pulse began to beat...



Then slowly made his way toward her



Excited, yet discreet...



His mask was firmly held in place



Emotions all in check...



He asked her to please dance with him



This one he had just met...



He held her close against his chest



As both became as one



And knew he'd never be the same



But panic, tried to run...



Twas then that she unveiled her face



Which took his breath away...



She started slowly fading



And then desperately he prayed...



Oh, please return this one to me



She is the missing piece...



That I've been looking for so long



To make my life complete...



The Master smiled and gave a nod



Then gently placed her hand...



Within the strong and caring one



Then left with this command...





"You know she's something special



You must treat her well, with love.



For she was made to be with you



From heaven's realm above!"



Be sweet...Have fun...wherever you are...and love until you fly....!

Everybody is a poet. For what is poetry/prose, except the attempt to express feeling and emotions that someone else can 'feel' and understand as if they were behind your eyes.

It is not about mechanics of words or wisdom. It's all about feelings. Some of the best 'poetry' I've ever seen was: A Salutation given to a total stranger and the exhiliration of empty sullen eyes, low on faith, suddenly turning into a smile.

I am sitting here in emptiness...

I marvel at the things around me..

busy,busy,busy....yet I...sit alone...



My heart is in the wind...

Listlessly blowing from place to place

Seeking a peaceful place toland but only finding

Puddles in which to sink...

It is like that tonight...



Tomorrow will be dfferent...

It always is...

This place I am in right now

Will be exchanged for a cheerful one...and...

I will walk in it and be glad...

For the moment.



An optimist by nature but...

Here I stand between two points...

Existing only in the knowlege that I have

to take a step toward happiness...but

Not knowing how...when...or where...



I sing but my songs are only heard

by the nightingale...yet I rest in

the knowledge that they are taken

to God...who listens, too.



Be gone the gloom of night

For joy cometh in the morning...

THE BROOK



The brook sings his song to me...

I hear every not distinctly.......................................



Come sit by me and rest...

Let me wrap you in the arms

Of my peace...



Sleep...now...woman...!



Let sorrow be replaced with love...

That you may no longer weep...



I am here for your refreshing...

Slide your feet among my pebbles....

And let my mud caress your weariness...



Softly I'll move between each crevice...

Stirring anew those feelings of youth

That have so long lain dormant...



Come woman... do not fear things

Unseen...

I am God's messenger...



Wade...



I'm all around you to

Carry you should you fall...



Trust my current...



It is in perfect time...



My heart is in sinc with yours...

Be at one with me...

Just Words



I am sitting here among the papers

Looking at the serenity of the snow

Encased trees...



Such beauty cannot be created

By man made hands...

Only God's beauty whispering

It's magic to my soul exists...



Unabashed peace fills

My being...

Tranquility at it's best...

Soars through my mind...



Only those who can see

Understand the simplicity

Of this treasure...

Priceless..but affordable...!
