Although personally I'm not a huge fan of poetry, there are a few that get to me.

My signature, for example is a poem called 'I Do Not Weep' by Mary E Fry. I heard it on a episode of Desperate Housewives once and I fell in love with it. Seeing as it's the anniversary of my nan's passing today, the poem always makes me think of her.

My siggy is a shortened version, but the full version is:

"Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.

I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight.
I am in the starshine of the night.

I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in everything.

Do not stand at my grave & cry,
I am not there, I did not die."


Do you guys have any poems, even ones written by yourself or others, that you'd like to share?

Once upon a time,

There once was a rhyme,

This is it,

Said Brad Pitt.

I can rhyme any time,

If you got the time I can rhyme,

For you,

Wooooooo!

Ric Flair said Wooooo!

Do you?

That is art by an amazing poet.

Me.




Yesterday they celebrated mothers
Gifts for me and all the others
Cards and hugs, lots of flowers
Talking on the phone for hours
Remembering my own Mom for all she's done
Being remembered by my own precious ones
Between calls and visits and before going to sleep
the memories of their births and early lives run deep
Look at them now, they've grown to men
And next year they'll pay tribute to me once again
Each in their own special way
Oh how I love Mother's Day!

WOOOOOOT!

We've had a week of storms in Tennessee
Tornados, wind and rain.
In the night they pass down the lee,
The next day they are back again.

Yeah, it makes me angry too
In that I def commiserate with you!

Just a short one this time. Itīs dedicated to Niamh and I thought I had posted it here but it seems I havenīt.


Ode to Niamh

When everything is said and done,
in Niamhīs world; not all is fun.

A troubled mind, no freedom found,
her hands and feet were tightly bound.

The Great Escape; she took the bait,
and made her way towards her fate.


Farewell, Niamh kvleft.gif

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.

I've written an incredibly deep and thought provoking poem about taxes.

Humpty Dumpty constructed a wall,
but didn't pay taxes,
no taxes at all.
Now old Humpty just sits in his cell,
staring at concrete,
his existence is hell.
