Angie said a song Challange, so here it is
Category: Writing and Poetry

 

 

"I'll be your candle on the water
My love for you will always burn
I know you're lost and drifting
But the clouds are lifting
Don't give up you'll have somewhere to turn

I'll be your candle on the water
'Till ev'ry wave is warm and bright
My soul is there beside you
Let this candle guide you
Soon you'll see a golden stream of light

A cold and friendless tide has found you
Don't let the stormy darkness pull you down
I'll paint a ray of hope around you
Circling in the air
Lighted by a prayer

I'll be your candle on the water
This flame inside of me will grow
Keep holding on you'll make it
Here's my hand so take it
Look for me reaching out to show
As sure as rivers flow
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go..."

 

I remember thinking how sad this was, more likely how bitterly pathetic. I was eight years old.  I remember thinking "she is just waiting. . .waiting for something or somone who is never coming back."  How could anyone just sit there. . .day in and day out and wait all alone.  What could possibly be worth all of that?  Nothing.  She was just a pathetic old lady who lived with her drunken father, at least she was nice enough to take in the orphan boy, at least she wouldn't be all alone for the rest of  her life. . .all alone sitting at the lighthouse. . .waiting. 

Some 27 years later, I understand. . .I finally understand.  Some things in life are worth waiting for.  somethings cannot be replaced, and sometimes you just have to have the patience to be without what you really want in order to achieve what you really need.

So Helen Reddy. . .a.k.a. Nora. . . . you were right, and I as an eight year old girl was not knowledgeable enough to understand the mystifying ways of love and the power of attraction.

So today I wait, and only God knows exactly how long I will wait, but I do it because I have no other choice, and nothing else seems as logical.   Is it bitterly pathetic?  I am unsure, but I am sure that it is what it is. . . .time passing.

Prognosticate

 

Play this with me, love. Go where our

Reality is foretold

Over and again by the

Gleam in my eyes for you, foresee the place where telling of

New and

Old, is unbound by our limited definitions

See in me our future

Tell me

I love you over and again, in absence of words, let me read the signs

Capture my heart by showing me

Always we will be, and

Then I in return will prognosticate our

Ever after as veracity

Tongue Tied (a Shotgun Poetry Pic Challange)
Category: Writing and Poetry

 

 

I'm sorry

did you speak

Your word. . . too weak

For me to hear

I would listen

if i could

it's all misunderstood

go ahead

mmmm

say it's all good

alabi's and lies

while my prescious time flies

away from me

to me your tongue is tied

 

or if you prefer something a little softer

shh. . .
not a word
tonight you
belong to me
consider your
tongue tied
much in the same way
my heart is bound
by you
 
speak not a word
as my hands reveal
what it is your body wants
talk to me with your eyes
your smile
you know what I want
but then again you always have
words are words
but actions are real
 
silence dear
as I kiss you here
and touch you there
oh, is that the spot
lower, lower
shh. . . .
I know
let your tongue be tied
like you've bound my heart

The Answer
Current mood: contemplative
Category: Writing and Poetry

When I lay down
To  sleep
Can you feel
The heat of my body
Making silent love
To you
In absence of presence
and movement
Do you see the love
In my eyes
For you
When I caress
Your hair
Both
Gingerly and
Aggressively
Is my hand over yours
Like shelter
From the world
Am I strong enough
To carry you
When You cannot
Stand
On your own
Yes!

Hesitant Kisses

Hesitant Kisses

Growing passion with

Each sensation

Souls intertwined

So sweet

 So gentle

So loving

 I smile into your soft brown eyes

And know

I have found my home

Mother's Day Blues
Category: Writing and Poetry

 

Mother's Day Blues
 
There should be no cooking or cleaning I thought
I won't run the vacuum or pick up a pot
I will sit on the couch in my favorite spot
Drinking a cup of Earl Grey that is hot
These were the things, the things were my wishes
Instead I woke up to a sink full of dishes
I dusted and swept and I cleaned with full swishes
I fed the cat and the ferret and all three of our fishes
I called to my teen "Keep an eye on the children"
This should have been a fair enough bargain
I laid on my couch and I dreamed dreams of crimson
I should have known better, but somehow I didn't
While I lay in my sleep, in my silent slumber
On the whole house, the kids did a number
Glue sticks, glitter, and crayons galore
After all of my work I could not take anymore
I felt all the rage welling up as spoke
What a Mother's Day treat, what a laugh, what a joke
Is this really what I deserved when I woke?
So a punishment up to their rooms I invoke
And when the stairs they came back down
I saw on their tiny faces a frown
"What were you two doing, you can't act like a clown"
"You  must try and behave when mommy's not around"
But mommy, my four year old said from afar
We were making for you a mother's day card
We cut it an glued it and tried very hard
And right in the middle we put a big star
The work I had done had not been all in vain
The love that they have for me always remains
So next time I feel this mother's blues pain
I will simply remember this poetic refrain

My Shadowman
Category: Writing and Poetry

He's alone

The Shadow of the man

I once knew

Although

It hasn't always been like that

Not always

Sometimes

The walls talk back

As they surround him

They say yesterday

Was better and tomorrow

Doesn't come

The walls lie to him

But he believes

The Shadow of the man

I once knew

Now caught in a world

Few understand

Where quiet never finds him

Once upon a time

His life filled with laughter

Filled with love

Or filled with his mind's ruse

To help him get by

Lonely Shadow

Of the man I once knew

Stop this

And become

The man you once were

The Knights WIsh
Current mood: creative
Category: Writing and Poetry


the Knight dismounts
the gentle beast

and removes his sword
from it's sheath

placing it in her hand
he say's kill me now, and here

that i may never know
true love again

the maidens plea
to answer he
so subtle and so pure

to kill you love
would be a sin
for I would love no more

then what of i
i would rather die

then cling to life in vain
to watch my flower
on the vine wither and decay

fear not dear knight
within my heart

the love for you remains
it only has been bounded
been bounded by these chains

now break me out and hold me close
so I may bloom again

together we shall beat this death
true love from start to end

 

 

I would like to give credit to my new friend Larry aka "Falling in a Dream"
for this beautiful collaboration
he started this piece
and is oh so talented the link below will bring you to him
