Hummingbird's First Flight
By: Twisted Heart

The little bird upon the branch
spread her wings and took her chance
She caught the whisper of the wind
With flapping wings her flight began.

Up in the sky she flew beside
The puffy clouds that wandered by
And felt the kiss of summer's breeze
With other birds for company.

She soared above the meadow green
She bent the flowers so serene
Dipping down to touch each one
Then once again up to the sun

She circled round, there in the sky
Heading home, from her flight
To the tree where mother waited
For baby bird to come in sight.

Up to the nest set on a branch
She dived without a second glance
Landing with such graceful ease
Inside the leaved adorning tree.

Or nature... I am going to post it in my poems under nature.

The Ocean Wind Blows
[nature]

The ocean wind blows, whistling through trees.
Powerful and cold or a gentle warm breeze.
Although invisible we know it's there.
Feel it sailing through our hair.

Watching the sand being made into dunes.
Listening to the wind as it sings its tunes.
Strong enough to cause destruction.
To many it can bring disruption.

Causing the waves to fiercely crash down.
As branches and trees fall to the ground.
Ocean side homes being torn apart.
This vicious wind is cold at heart...

On a hot summers day, a gold sandy beach.
The ocean wind seems out of reach.
Asking for just a gentle breeze.
To allow us to enjoy the sun with ease.

Feeling it gently kiss your face.
The ocean wind blows with so much grace.
Bringing with it so much pleasure.
This calm little breeze we learn to treasure.

The ocean wind blows be it cruel or kind.
Most powerful force that comes to mind.
We can not see it but know it's there.
Just look around, it's everywhere.

I'd like...keeping my smile please! Thank you! Jpoet*

keeping my smile, please.

Keeping My Smile

I never imagined one person could take
Everything that meant something to me
I used to belong all to myself
But with you entertwined all my dreams

So when you finally took your leave
With it you stole all my belongings
Now I am in an empty house
With memories that mean nothing

I wake up in the middle of the night
To find that nobody's home
I go to the cabinet where there's one cup
To remind me I am alone

Things aren't the same without their pair
So without you I'm just a half
Half of everything I used to be
Like a joke without a laugh

Maybe you took all that I have
Everything that made life worthwhile
But there's one item you forgot
And I've decided I'm keeping my smile.

can i have something inside so strong please

can i reserve alive

can i reserve alive 2?

can I reserve still here I stand or make make my own title?

this is a poem about my horse

"Goddess"

Head held high
eyes ablaze like fire
when anyone see's her
they ask "who's her sire"

like a new penny
her chestnut coat shines
I'm proud of her
this horse I call mine

muscles ripple upon each movement
she's so close to perfect,
there's no room for improvement

with the speed of a fleet goddess
that's how she got her name
an angelic figure,
that will take your breath away

when she runs down a road
her hooves sound like thunder
people look out
and stare in wonder

her beauty undefined
speed unmatched
she'll turn and burn
a barrel in a flash

the crowds scream
as we reach the time line
on to the college finals
my love for her won't ever die

she has saved my life
and I have saved hers
were like 2 spirits in one
only she has fur

two young hearts
wild and free
when I sleep at night
it's about this horse I dream

born alive
{alive}
suffocating, not breathing
moving around, reaching
struggling, fighting, dieing

looking for life can't see
black liquid surrounds me
no oxygen, pain agony

an opening, a light
a single hope in this night
now i kick with all my might

closer closer, not fast enough
fighting against current is tough
what is all this stuff

to far, loose conscience, closing eyes
those promises of life were all lies
just like my body my soul dies

cold, skin goes numb, so cold
hands, my body they mold
"Welcome little one to the world"

inhale exhale i can breath
eyes open, brightness, but i can see
there's still life in me

alive i scream at the top of my lungs
alive is the song i sung
alive the battle is won

now safe in moms arms
alive and safe from harm

by thompson

bump

snowy do you want reserve or are you making your own poem ? xxx alex xxx

k i think i will pull out of this one...i have nothing to write about =(

sorry

okies

more people come on

id like to use still here i stand

Still Here I Stand

Still here I stand
Before the almighty God
This was unplanned
My life was flawed

He is telling me
What I have done wrong
He speaks so sternly
But I seem to be headstrong

I thought my life was perfect
That I had done nothing wrong
Except for that time I panicked
And killed that little blonde

She was so young
She was so new
She had sprung
Into life anew

She did nothing to deserve to die
Her time was not up
Her mother had to say goodbye
Before the sunup

Still here I stand
With God looking me in the eyes
She is in a new land
That never has goodbyes

He is sending me
Down below
To a world that is dirty
And the devil says hello

any more?

i think that if no one else enters i will draw this contest to a close soon ok xxx

Sorry that it's taking me so long, I've been a tad busy, and I am slowly catching up on these. I will have it in for you soon though.

okies

can i reserve something inside so strong? plz and thx

I'll do believer

Believer.

I thank you so much,
for all you have done.
For trusting my father,
and his loving son.

You've broughten me joy,
through out each day.
You've given me strength,
to trust and obey.

You've touched my family,
in ways no one knows.
You're meant for heaven,
and it truly shows.

I thank you so much,
for all you have done.
For trusting my father,
and his loving son.

Tears fill each eye because..
we've not known each other that long.
Though it seems like eternity,
you've helped to keep me strong.

You may not realize,
the impact on my life,
or the blessing you have given me,
that are truly so rife.

I look up to believers,
that smile the way you do.
and i look up to believers
that remind me of you.

I thank you so much,
for all you have done.
For trusting my father,
and his loving son.

Can i reserve living in the wild please

Cheers

Something Inside So Strong
by...KT

Something inside me screams to be released
Its roars and rips and tear refuse to cease
It's fighting for the freedom I crave
Pounding at these incessant walls it cannot stave
Something inside me is filling my soul
And thundering aloud at the gaping hole
Rising against the deadly odds
It strikes out with the swiftest rod
Something inside me is trying to drown
The rest of me who's been let down
So finally it may meet and take revenge
upon that poor soul my broken heart to avenge
Something inside me takes over for a moment
The lover in me is caught in torment
Ripped apart by this contrary possession
Time for me to make a confession
Something inside me so strong
Protecting and protesting it does belong
Not locked away so I can reminisce
But those memories will surely not be missed
Something inside me so strong
Is ready for the pain to be gone

Lalala.

Good Job, Everyone. Like these poems. :]

can i resrve still here i stand. ill do it in a while im sick and am having a cough attack..but hopefully after dinner ill do it..thnx:)

ok..not as good as i hoped it'd be here it goes:

Still Here I Stand

Rain falls down, to the ground,
Pitter-patter is the only sound.
Lonely girl, all alone,
Soaking wet; has no home.

Family left, not out of love,
But of hate, left with a shove.
Trying to find, someone to care,
She’s calling out…but no one’s there.

Still, here I stand, all alone,
This girl is me, and it hurts to the bone.
I have no one to love me anymore,
Here I stand, waiting for what’s in store.

3 days later, still hasn’t eaten,
She has lost, they’ve beaten,
All she believed, is down the drain,
Washed away by the still pouring rain.

Sleeps in the park under the bench,
Trying not to get sick, but she is drenched.
Has no one to come and take her pain away,
All she can do is wait for a better day.

Still, here I stand, all alone,
I have no one to call on the old pay phone.
I have no one, to care what I will do…
Please, someone…come to my rescue.

Heart Of A Million Dreams.

With lines decorating the sides of her blue eyes;
She looks upon her reflection in the mirror to -
A blurred image of her past staring back at her,
Draped in a clutter of long forgotten good-byes.

Crocodile tears stream down her foundation disguise;
As bittersweet compassion coats her scarlet lips,
And her pounding head throbs as she etches her face -
With lines decorating the sides of her blue eyes.

A heart of a million dreams lets out a sorrowful sigh;
As the rustic beat muffles her dreadful secrets -
Engraved along the blackened red linen and lace;
Draped in a clutter of long forgotten good-byes.

With lines decorating the sides of her blue eyes;
She spends the night with a torn photograph -
Draped in a clutter of long forgotten good-byes.

A Villonnet is a hybrid of the Villanelle and the Sonnet. It has the Iambic Pentameter of both, but holds the four-stanza/line structure of the Sonnet, while utilizing the two-line rhyme nature of the Villanelle. The final stanza replaces the Sonnet couplet with a typical Villanelle tercet.
