So any budding Poets about? I used to write stuff so many moons ago now. But thought I'd share a couple. Hazy Days The days drift on and on But there must be an end. I see her face in every crowd; Hear her voice in every word. Images of snatched moments we had Drift like snowflakes through my heart. I never knew why she left, I guess she's never gone. But I know there's a hole in my heart Where she used to be. Fireflies From on high I watch the lights below They shine like so many fireflies Their patterns push out to light the dark I wonder of the dreams That those below are having Their lives unaware of my passing As I watch the land slip by My thoughts reach upto heaven My mind wanders like the clouds But slowly I tire and fall into slumber My mind dreams like those below But onwards I always go..
There once was a man from Nantucket... I used to write. Even got published, twice. But that was so long ago, and I was in a better place then. I don't know that I have it in me these days. Maybe I'll look through the closet this weekend & see what I can find... see if there's anything worth sharing.
My love, There are days when I lay awake like an owl. Alone on my bed, I wondered... " Why am I so lucky...? " You're just like one of those prince charming of fairly tales. Saved me from the troubles. Stood behind me to catch each fall of mine. Made me laugh with your silly jokes. Turned me red and blushiee with those whispers of yours. All my teary nights became beautiful memories. Changed my nightmares to beautiful dreams. You made my life so complete. So now that I have you for myself. I know for sure. That...... I am yours forever and ever. Love, MB
So new piece or an old one? I find it hard recently to write stuff of any length and often stick to Haiku.
