21. Life Is Fine
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.

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...

Analysis of Form and Technique
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.

"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!
First day of the New Year.
It's time to shine for a new day.
Forget your past,
Your sorrow, your pain.
I printed this poem to read to my mother who is in the hospital. She has been there for two weeks, missed Christmas and will also miss New Years. I am not sure what the future holds, but we...
I gracefully bloom in July,
Clothed in a delicate silk,
Fringed with a delicate lace,
Sprinkled with the color of milk.
This is a very beautiful poem. The inspiring topic and the perfect rhyme add charm to the poem. I can picture the lily standing in the field, a glimmer of beauty in its entire surroundings,...
I am learning to find hope
in the smallest and most unexpected places
like the whispers through the forest
and the velvet evening sky
This poem speaks to me. I really like it. We spend so much of our time focusing on things that really don't make life better and we miss out on many of the things that do.
Have faith
that although it may seem
like the good has come and gone,
there will be better.
Wow! I love it. My kind of writing. Short, to the point with powerful words, and a great message. I have witnessed firsthand how better has come, many times.
Famous Poem
This, too, will pass.
O heart, say it over and over,
Out of your deepest sorrow,
out of your deepest grief,
I sat at my dresser this morn
And opened the bottom drawer
To try and find which mask to wear
That I hadn't worn the day before
I had a little seed that I had found upon the ground,
I kept it in my pocket where it was safe and sound.
What may it be, this tiny little seed, now tucked inside my cloak,
could it be a sugar maple, or perhaps a mighty oak?
Have you ever felt trapped behind metal bars,
Or watched all your cuts turn to scars?
Have you tried to escape the pain in your soul,
But you just couldn't seem to fit that hole?
one day
it will be so clear –
what you thought
was the end,
The blossom will always grow.
The seasons will always change.
People come and go,
Their shadows comforting and strange.
We are soft and feminine,
Pretty and stylish,
We are strong in heart,
We keep going on and on,
Dark forests are filled with birds and trees
Sun shines through the clouds with ease
There might be darkness, but the light won't cease
To dominate the day.
If you love somebody with your heart, soul, and mind,
Every road to adventure is one of a kind.
Though the road may be rugged and your spirits are high,
Still the sun seems to shine on the loved ones going by.
