Whether a poet or not, taking up this poetry challenge may reveal a truth about yourself you didnt know...you are a poet and don't know it! ;) This is exactly how I began writing poetry, a friend challenged me to write a quick simple rhyming poem out of the blue. I couldnt imagine being able to just draw a poem out of my hat like that...but he pushed me to do it and swore he knew I could. Well..I did, and even my first poem out of my hat did prove...I was a poet and didnt know it. Doesnt mean I'm good one, but, poetry is all in the eye of the beholder anyway...and I admit, I love my poems as they are an expressive tool that releases blocked energy and they always end up revealing something about myself to myself. So to me, they are as wee children I've created from my emotional self (good or bad). I hope that all who reads this Poetry Challenge will take me up on this challenge and write a one or more verse (4 lines per verse) poem about a very scarey dream or fear that you have/had. Or, anything that pops into your mind first. If you do it quickly with the least amount of thought and fear...you will see how fast a poem can just pop out of your mind, as if it had been waiting there for years. What is surprising is that once you begin....its hard to stop...and please, if at all possible, have the poem to rhyme. Rhyming is a good way to guide your next verse and it shows you just how simple poetry can truly be. Happy Poeting, birdy |

Oh my, from thought and then to paper.. Now where do I go? I see color, feel energy and dance in emotion Language is hard for me to express when music speaks When there is truly only one word: Love When I look in your eyes, they smile back in mine There are times I forget that I am me, and You are you The simple things like breathing I forget If you asked me my name when you smiled, I forgot We talk with our eyes and love with our hearts There is no more powerful communication felt than this Why is it that mere words seem to fail us? When all we need to do is "Look"? Perhaps to help the rest of our friends; Communication is critical; when we talk too fast Help me now my love with the words please For when you smile at me, I too forget what I am saying. "Ode to my Sweetheart".. |

Savage Shame spilt her beauty Bleak endless weeping Liquid sorrow spills To drown in nowhere night Deeper shadows stalk light's sorrow Stealth requires darker shades Vulnerable Nowhere night Yearning Desire to be free Shackled by the deepest dark Evil savages dawn Sacred winds beckon © 07 FWA |

Savage
Shame spilt her beauty
Bleak endless weeping
Liquid sorrow spills
To drown in nowhere night
Deeper shadows stalk light's sorrow
Stealth requires darker shades
Vulnerable
Nowhere night
Yearning
Desire to be free
Shackled by the deepest dark
Evil savages dawn
Sacred winds beckon

Hi everyone, Lot's of great poems on here, You all have a wonderful way with words. It's like a puzzle for me ,, ya know to find the right words. But this is a poem I wrote when my daughter and I had a fight and she moved back to florida. Things are great now though..Well with my daughters any way lol.. Love and hugs to you all Skybolt, DEAR LIFE Could you take my heart and put it in a place where it will be safe and won't have to see a face. DEAR LIFE Could you take my heart and put it in a plcae where it will be free and lots of space. DEAR LIFE Could you take my heart and scrape it from this life, fix the cracks and tears and the walls it bares. DEAR LIFE Could you take my heart to that special place where the angels arch.
