21. A Helping Musical
A blank parchment is lifeless
Until a pen creates a melody.
A song is revered ageless
Because of a sweet harmony.

Life can seem an endless maze,
The twists and turns, lulls and delays,
But things always fall into place...
In good time.

It's strange the things you remember
And the things you seem to forget.
It's a jamboree of all sorts,
A patchwork of joys and regrets.
When I awake to one more dreary day,
an empty heart with empty hours to fill,
I know that brighter skies will come my way.
Florence, what a lovely comment; it means a great deal to me. Thank you.
Despite the storms,
beauty arrives like
it was always going to.
Despite the darkness,
Part of the last line says, "Keep living." I'm saying keep writing. I like your style and sensitivity. Excellent flow and structure. I really enjoyed it.
Famous Poem
I went down to the river,
I set down on the bank.
I tried to think but couldn't,
So I jumped in and sank.
Everyone is born for a purpose, but we forget that in pursuit of money. Then God gifted me with poetry and uses it as a medium to educate people, and in each of my poems there is a story...
I see you, darling.
Holding on to your hope with both hands.
Feeling exhausted with all the turbulence.
But not letting go.

Famous Poem
In spite of war, in spite of death,
In spite of all man's sufferings,
Something within me laughs and sings
And I must praise with all my breath.
This is some extraordinary literature I'm going to have to read to my grandchildren. Thank you for producing this beautiful work of art that I can share with the future generation.
I was just an innocent child, so pure and so fragile,
Unaware of the darkness lurking, ready to defile.
Trapped under evils' demise, in a world so vile,
Where shadows danced with malice, leaving me frozen in fear.
Searching for something that may never be known,
mental disturbance turns a heart back to stone.
Create memories alone in your head,
As a child, I was very abused by the man I always THOUGHT was my dad. He did things to me as a child, like put guns to my head, knives to my throat, kicked me, stomped on me, and even hit me...

If Only...
A prayer was held in our nation,
Beauty was seen in more ways than one,
Children who are lost could find their salvation,
Give quality time to your loved ones. Otherwise, you will lose them gradually.
Relationships are very beautiful, especially those always giving unconditional love.
Society seems in a mess.
Mothers cry, while fathers stress.
To be polite is a disgrace
as children mock you to your face
This is a very inspirational poem. May the poet live long to inspire more souls. It has uplifted my spirit and renewed my hope.
The things I've seen will scar me for life.
Growing up, I've seen wrong and very little of right.
I hear a sad song, and tears roll down my face.
I look in the mirror and feel so out of place.
My life is like a flower. It started as a seed that was planted in someone's backyard. Every day this flower looked for sun and water as the roots started to sprout. The flower started to...

Often we can't see
The treasure we gain.

When Mother Nature tries to bring you down,
You will never fall; you will stand your ground.
You will encounter burning flames.

"Hope" is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
I recited this poem in grade six and it has been an inspiration for me ever since. Wonderful work!
I believe the beating in our hearts
was put there to remind us
that even when we feel alone in the world,
a part of us marches on,

It's time to shine for a new day.
Forget your past,
Your sorrow, your pain.

Floating, heart askew
In the dark, deep tunnel of nothing
Claw with every cell of me
Reach out for anger, greed, sorrow
