The Standoff

Submitted by Depressed 1 on Sun, 2022-12-04 21:53

You are not far away as the crow flies

I will be back with you by sunrise

The rain it starts to pour heavy down

As the blood soaks into the ground

As it slowly seeps into the soft dirt

I pray for less, but I get more hurt

I am a wanted man in this town

So I fire off just one more round

I have never been a violent man

The Police just do not understand

I feel a sting as it enters my mind

Hurt more when you left me behind

I know that they will lay me low

As through my eyes blood flows

Birthday Wishes

Submitted by Kammy O. on Sun, 2022-12-04 21:11

A decade plus seven
Shows how old we are today
Thanks to GOD in heaven
We made it through all the way

Truly life's a roller coaster
Which we don't seem to understand
Till we get older
Then it becomes clearer

It's been an amazing journey
With him by my side
We got through all our worries and thrived

He has a dazzling smile
Which you could picture from a mile
Happy birthday to my handsome man
You'll always be mine

My Love

Submitted by Dedes Love on Sun, 2022-12-04 15:30

My love will always be
My love is for eternity
My love has always been
My love is thick and not thin
My love is alive and exist
My love is for you not to miss
My love is from start to finish
My love is a bliss with just a peck on the lips
My love, I insist
My love is enough
My love will make you tough
My love is always there
My love is strong you may feel scared
My love is not going no where
My love is true to the end
My love hopes to run into you my friend

FRAGRANT VIBRATIONS

Submitted by lovedly on Sun, 2022-12-04 12:37

I can as all others
could or would do

spread fragrance
as you do

far and wide across the sunny horizon
lapping up the sounds of waves
in simple harmonic vibrations

your fragrance
shall spread
across many lands
bless the web
for communication

LAST ONE NO ONE READ SO MAY NOW

the rough night
gave birth to
a virgin morn
joy spreads

Emotions In Seasons: How I feel and my favorites

Submitted by Candlewitch on Sun, 2022-12-04 03:19

December finds me at my hearth
warm-faced, poking up the fire.
Sliding into my favorite chair
book in hand, new worlds inspired.

Outside, snow is softly falling,
accumulating a blanket of white
while I recline dreaming of good wishes,
candles lit on this Yule night.

January, the Sign of the Wolf
meeting with the full moon,
coming together in words and deeds
bring all aspects of life in tune.

Confidence

Submitted by Shelby Pryor on Sun, 2022-12-04 01:37

Hold your head up high
Keep your shoulders square
Walk through the crowd like a winner
Smile and nod when you see them stare

Be brave and courageous
Never ask God why
He knows exactly what's He's doing
You'll never win if you never try

Prepare with a determined mind
Just do what you set out to do
Because at the end of the day
Your attitude is what defines you

a lovenote from the author

Submitted by Kira Belle on Sat, 2022-12-03 17:11

it’s the excitement
of running into your parents’
long, strong arms
after they arrive home from work.

maybe it’s in the back of a car,
or sitting on a pier,
the first time those butterflies flutter
as he leans in and kisses you.

it feels like that weight
you didn’t notice flattening your chest
until your best friend stands up
and tells those bullies to fuck off.

it’s that moment,
either playing soccer
or singing on a stage,
when passion prevails your whole body.

Ode To Early Flowers

Submitted by Rula on Sat, 2022-12-03 15:08

As early flowers blush and bloom
The weary hearts long for a roam
Away from where once lived the gloom
As early flowers blush and bloom
I rush with thrush out there to loom
And bring the warmth back up to home
Where early flowers blush and bloom
Where weary hearts long for a roam

Emotions in Seasons

Submitted by Hon on Sat, 2022-12-03 11:34

It is the charming month of March
when all the enchanting flowers
daises, pansies, roses, lilies, and others
are blooming from the garden view
with the sweet aroma disperse in the air
every soft petal elegant flourish touch
abound with joy and a jubilant grace
greeting the new revival nourishing
with a sign of breathtaking scenery
Each heart is dancing with ecstatic
in celebrating the renewing of life
Birds and butterflies are chasing
Mother Nature is calling out
To all the beauty from their slumber
