just a pathetic old man...

I used to love

It's actually a collectable

Mon Blanc...in commemoration

I wish I'd read
prompt 4
before
I rambled on about
my mon blanc
pen but....how
do you refuse a gift politely?

perhaps I can give it
away to a charity?

Why am I still here
trying to rhyme
pretty sure I'm wasting
my time

and yours!

Well....I think
it's pretty sad

out of the 'shadow members'

encouraging them to
join in here
only two have
responded...

Have to come on
Andrea and the others will be waiting
To hear my shit...
Everlasting will...laugh!!

1. formed poem - but must be placed inside a
free style poem

Her summer smile
hides behind a gray veil;
warmth blows,
clouds relish as
rain grows
to dampen the day,
Wind wails,
a wicked joy
sets sail,
earth is about
to taste her turbulent ways,
Storm slays,
lady tempest
at play,
her summer smile
breaks through the veil
and reveals tomorrow's aches.

2. include an item of stationery, pencil, paper etc.

Black and blue
walk down the aisle
holding all that's true,
the past flew
and a present grew
facing their future without a clue

5. Must include at least one rhyme.

there is a special word in this world
which cannot be bought or earned,
its a gift you will come to learn...
steers you away from wrong turns,

it has a special name in this world
gives courage to those who yearn,
from birth...into your heart its burned
and once gone you will foever mourn,

it has a special place in this world
once lost none can replace,
few cry for its tender embrace
when it flies away like a bird

6. Category: sad

You have seen me in my worst
and cheered on till I became the best,
picked me up from the deepest dirt
with a precious heart I've savored from birth,
now all I have is your floral shawl
to cradle me when I'm hurt

Meena...what a champ!!!

you go girl!!!

Any of you other peeps I pm'd it's
your final chance...I think it closes tomorrow...

8. write a poem about this site!!

A broken heart
stumbles upon this site
penning sleepless nights,
a cocooned life
piled with mistakes and cries
lets loose dreams from its sight.

3. Include a crime, or mention prison, or both!

From wall to wall without space to breathe
we are cramped to fill each page,
our names have given various meanings
each of which remains...
with pain and sorrow, smiles and joys
we've shared and birthed various rage,
fixed and bound with a colorful outlook
from A to Z we fill the cage,
for the world we come in all size and shape
and named as a dictionary,
but for us its the thickest prison...
a silent and crowded sanctuary.

#4

Being homeless is not a great feeling at all,
Lost inside a world of hatred, living on the streets.
Not knowing where to go or what to eat.
Sadness all around, no hope in faces.

#5

Why do we let children get sad?
Letting the parents run free.
Doing nothing the world becomes cruel.
It destroys the heart inside of me.

#6

Sadness hits my heart hard,
when I see my wife is hurting.
Fire inside of me starts burning.

#7

Couches are good for sleeping
because you can sink into them.
Dreamcatchers seem to fill my mind
because comfort fills my heart.

#8

P and q is like a home for me,
comforting when I feel sad
and a place where I express
my poetry. Friends are nice to
chat with.

#1

Laying in the sandy beaches
leaves me feeling at peace.
Waves lap my feet, tickling.
My heart beats a steady rhythm.

Seagull's fly above,
sunlight captures my pale skin
tranquil fills my soul.

#2

Pens are better than pencils
because you can color paper
with the imagination you hold inside.

#3

Prayers for the families
that were hurt by the crimes
vengeful people took on.
Pain is the strongest emotion
that someone can feel.

#4

Poor people have hope sometimes.
Their eyes speak the stories untold
by the money they don't have.

#5

Flying in airplanes is nerve wrecking
for most people nowadays.
Thunderstorms can cause anxiety
in many different ways

#6

Staying in bed all day,
leaves me feeling depressed.
Messy room, sheets spewed,
I don't want to be happy.

#7

Pillows are comfortable head rests
when lying back into a chair.
I can rest my eyes, not falling asleep
Sinking, I vanish from thin air.

#8

I've been off and on this site
since 2006. Feeling comfortable
feeling home. I could never leave.

STOP! TIME UP
