Here is one from me....

True Happiness

Have you ever taken the time,
to look into the eyes of toddler,
and seen their hopes and dreams
dance about in their soul?

Have you ever watched an old married couple kiss,
could you see the fire and passion still alive
and all the generations that they created?

Have you ever stould outside in the rain,
arms spread wide and mouth open
and felt your sins wash away?

Have your ever taken the nerdy girl to prom,
and saw her eyes glow brighter than the sun,
her self image concept forever changed,
and you saw her become beautiful?

Not what about the poor, the sick, and the needy...
have you ever held a sick poor child in your arms and listened to them cry? In your mind knowing that they can never lead a normal happy life.

Have you ever taken the time out of your busy life to find true happiness?

A Poem For Computer Users Over 40


A Computer was something on TV
From a science fiction show of note.
A Window was something you hated to clean,
And a Ram was the father of a goat.

Meg was the name of a girlfriend,
And Gig was a job for the nights.
Now they all mean different things
And that really Mega Bytes.

An Application was for employment,
A Program was a TV show,
A Cursor used profanity,
A Keyboard was a piano.

A Memory was something that you lost with age,
A CD was a bank account.
And if you had a 3-inch floppy,,
You hoped nobody found out.

Compress was something you did to the garbage,
Not something you did to a file.
And if you Unzipped anything in public,
You'd be in jail for a while.

Log On was adding wood to the fire,
Hard Drive was a long trip on the road..
A Mouse pad was where a mouse lived,,
And a Backup happened to your commode.

Cut you did with a pocket knife,
Paste you did with glue.
A Web was a spider's home,
And a Virus was the flu.

I guess I'll stick to my pad and paper,
And the Memory in my head.
I hear nobody's been killed in a Computer crash,
But when it happens they wish they were dead.

A Confussed Heart



My knees start to shake,

When your in my sight

My mind fills with wonder,

My heart with fright

When will this feeling stop?

When did it start?

How can I listen to my Mind

Without breaking my heart

I am so confussed

What should I do?

I cannot think of anything

Except thoughts of you

Should I ignore you?

Or just give you time?

I cannot think straight,

My heart controls my mind

Title: Oh God

There is a notion of tears,
not far from hear,
crescendoing cries,
churning guts,
howling fears,

Faceless,

Nameless,
writhing in pain,

Torn together,
by thorn filled chains.

I'm called by the darkness,
to be awakened again.


I liked your poetry fun, Upon an Earthly Pole was great, to me.
