joshua24 View Profile	Let's share poetry Posted : 22 Feb, 2009 02:40 PM This is really awesome! I'm really enjoying getting the opportunity to read these poems! Thank you everyone for sharing. Here's another poem of mine that I wrote recently. It's called: "The Chase" It stands to rest, among the best That all reason and wisdom gained Still can never fully attain A point or mark of perfection at best But, the chase must go on So the catch can be strong Enough to carry forward A soul beaten and seeking reward To leave no trace of regret or fear And bury that passion to a heart that's near by: Joshua Murphy February 1, 2009

joshua24 View Profile	Music soundtrack to my life Posted : 3 Feb, 2009 11:19 PM So, I always thought that this would be the coolest thing ever: To have music play in the background of my life, just like a soundtrack to a movie. You know, a loud, upbeat song would play when I'm feeling excited or happy (actually, if I was happy the song "sunshine on my shoulders" by Carly Rae Jepsen would play), or if I was sad or down about relationships the song "Miserable At Best" by Mayday Parade would play... and if I was getting hyped up for a hockey game or football game the song "Go Buck" by Flame. Man, life would be awesome if this was possible... and those were just a few examples... How would your soundtrack sound like? - Josh

joshua24 View Profile	Let's share poetry Posted : 2 Feb, 2009 05:31 PM Hey everybody, I love poetry and just wanted a place to share it with others and here other people's poetry... I'll start with one of my poems I wrote that was inspired by the prayer of my senior pastor this fall. It's titled "Seasons Collide": The rain falls down in gathered puddles Beneath my feet, washing away stains Of all my mistakes and breaking pains And memories of long, soft cuddles The wind howls at my face as I break Tears fly behind me in anguish now Leaving me questions of why and how But now I've put far too much at stake I stand in the ocean, in waist deep As the wave knocks me down, I just drown In purity that washes me clean I fall hard and fast in peaceful sleep The sun beats on my dry, sandy feet My hands touch the ground in hope for rain So that I could gain some direction All these years, I still seek affection The snowflake flutters onto my nose Piles of them, above the road they rose Even past my cold, prostrate body I wish for time to be frozen, stop The leaves whirlpool around my stature All the brown, gold, red, and orange consume My thoughts, they spin in constant sequence Past all the concepts of consequence I love to be captive in His arms His love, His kindness, it captures me His nature so raw, it sweeps me up And puts me face down in reverence By: Joshua Murphy Now let me hear yours....
