Going to share one of my own, and I'm not great at these so do keep that in mind.

The Mind... a Storm, Aimless and Wild...
Blind... Without Form, no more than a Child.

The Eye... Though at Peace, Fierce yet Mild.
Defy... Else try to Cease, Our Sanity is Defiled...

Points to whoever can decipher what it means, as it's not simply meant to rhyme.
 
"Feels like Christmas Time"
Song by Sax

Well it snowed outside for the very 1st time last night,
and the neighbor is trying to put up his holiday lights.
Im hurrying home with a twinkle thats in my eye,
and I open the door to the smell oF a pumkin pie.

FEELS LIKE CHRISTMAS TIME.
FEELS LIKE CHRISTMAS TIME.

I wait, for the mail to come.
Cards and holiday wishes from everyone.
There's a fire inside and its keeping me warm tonite,
and we're decking the halls to the colors of red green and white,
Its Christmas time!

Under the mistletoe,
I'm gonna let her know,
I wish that every night,
was like Christmas time!

FEELS LIKE CHRISTMAS TIME...
 
The best strange thing...

Isn't it strange, how the earth's tribes always screw up?

Isn't it strange, that the inconsiderate gain in memberships each month?

Isn't is strange, how sane behaviour is almost a myth amongst earth's tribes.

Isn't it strange, that the inconsiderate are setting the bar so low that everyone can participate?

Isn't it strange, that most people aren't even aware of their awful behaviour.

Isn't it strange, that all those people have chosen others to set their bar as low as they can go?

You know what the best thing about all this is?

The best thing about this is that they can never reach your bar. You have the right to feel better than them, because you are. And that is enough,

Don't set your bar too high...
 
The ocean is transcendence from the shackles of gravity, from being anchored as terrestrial beings. The beauty and depth of feeling of the stillness and communion with nature, with all that it is, all the infinite that swells in your heart, mind and soul. Nothing can ever compare to the ocean. Absolutely nothing.

Thank you for this poem. You get me. ❤
 

"Forever" can be a declaration of commitment, a blindfold of fantasy, or a means of manipulation.

Are you in love with love, or with the person?

Are you romancing romance, or the person?

Are you building something together, or are you pretending to?

Are you bringing to life the person you imagine them to be, or are you seeing and appreciating the person really in front of you?

Are you hooked on the immediate gratification of your loins, or are you hooked on that person's heart?

Some words weigh more than others and forever is not just any word. Forever is you giving your word.

"For now" is a promise of one night, the promise of a present.
"Forever" is a promise of thousands of nights, the promise of a future.

A "for now" without expectations, without attachments can transform into a "forever".
The only way to find out if it will be a "forever" is for every moment to start off as a "for now".

Sometimes life causes a forever to change into a for now. Then "for now" is all we have, all we can have. That all is honest and real.

In the end...whether someone or something promises or is promised a for now or forever, what matters is for that choice of words to be meaningful, for the promise to be true to its purpose.
