Another Artistic Thread - POEMS

[izchan]

: Silly Me

I am but a fool
stumbling through the night
staring at nothing
thinking it is light

Emotions are a tumble
nothing seems to go right
heart is moving backwards
what a sorry sight

If I was smarter
I would have known
that true love is an action
not a word on a tomb

[rm']

Why not?

Creation of life
Swirling round and round in my
Bowl of Cambell's soup.

[izchan]

That was cute ...

Hey RM .. ur poem/statement was very nice ...


Here is a another one. (a somewhat sad note)

: A Tribute

If man could fly
he will have wings
not twin engines on metal things

Yet flew he did
and landed it seems
on concrete walls
and unleashed its screams

'Shoo' I say
just go away
tears are flowing
and so are blood

Why oh why doesn't man have wings

[Huehuetenango]

i dont' write poems
though i once read a really good one
can't remember who it's by
but it was called, i think, stargleam

part of it goes
some day the stars will gleam
upon a cold gray stone
trace a name in silver light
and lo, twill be your own

more to it, very melodic, flows nicely
i wish i could rmember more of it

[Bilbo Baggins]

Entrancing starlight, shafted beam
of mirrored happiness piercing my dream.
The love of you is wrapping my skin, keeping my heart
warm, tender, forever beating.

Enveloping dark trance, melodious sighs
as your arms wrap around me, body and soul
I cry for your kisses, the shower me freely
and i look to the heavans, and the gods smile on me

We walk through the forest, leaves falling like rain
and the faeries are dancing, songs of laughter
and the sun is hanging, last beams touching hair
and our happiness is true, now forever and there.

[izchan]

And yet another good poem ...

Bilbo ... your artistic side is really showing ..

Here is another one of mine ...

A Reason
-------------------------------------
Sound of laughter
far and wide
Tears of mothers
Sobs and sighs

Matyrs come and then they die
Of which their meaning in life
Is to be the one that is good
Is to be the one that inspired

Yet forget they do in people's heart
When their love is taken lightly
Their memories like yesterdays rain
Matyrs come and then forgoten

Who am I that a king should die
so that I might go to heaven

Who am I ... so I ask myself
to ask of mothers to loose their child
so that I might be forgiven

Thus that is a matyrs life
the come and die
and then forgoten
--------------------------------------

[rm']

Come whisper in my
Ear all your thoughts on Love and
God and Hate and Hope.

RM your phrases are really nice ... do you write them or those quotes from books ... .. you must read a lot.

: As it be

Mountain tops with valleys deep
each holds their identity
of cold winds peaks
or river deeps
each a story untold
each a keeper of truths

Know that there is no final answer
for questions asks are just beliefs
right and wrongs, man's delima
each of whom asked to challenge

As GOD sleeps
and so shall we.

Wrote this based on your sig RM. It does make one think .. no?

[rm']

Life can be explained
In three simple verses of
Haiku poetry.

[izchan]

Do you know ...

RM: do you know any Haiku Poetry to share?

I think I read something about Haiku Poetry in this forum as well ... I am not sure.

Going to search the net to see what is avaible.

[rm']

Know any? I write all mine.

5 syllables first line, 7 syllables second line, 5 syllables third line.

Foundations dissolved
by an under whelming sense of
importance, walls tearing and
flaking, dust showering
the rust covered floor. Boards
groaning and clawing with unkempt nails,
the icy tips becoming fingers themselves.
Delusions splinted by a private abyss,
but not gone, it was all just a
whispers stolen by the wind.

I particularly like this part ... it feels true.

Share more .. share more ... Nemesis

So so I will be awaiting for more of your insights ...

Question ...

When you say syllables, you mean every word on that sentence? or just a particular part of it?

I am a novice with this haiku stuff ... still searching.

[rm']

Happily

hap-pi-ly

3 syllables, one word.

[izchan]

RM: Do you mean like this?

let me give this a go ...

here goes nothing ....

Lit-tle One Asked Once
What can I Be-lieve?
An-swer is in you

---

Did I do it right? Lit-tle, Be-lieve and An-swer are 2 sylables. Where the rest all can be counted as one?

Or is there a certain format that I am suppose to follow like the way a sentence is made?
