A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!
Fear not the depths of the ocean.
The waves will guide you.
Fear not the vastness of the sky.
The clouds will guide you.
As you stand at the edge of yourself,find your choices.
As you stand at the edge of your fears,find your strength.
For beyond the fear of aloneness is the gift of friendship.
And beyond the fear of loneliness is the promise of happiness.
Rejoice in the joys of life.
Savour the moment in its splendour.
Rejoice in the miracle of life.
Savour the promise of forever more.
Sweet fairyland as white as snow!
You come to me with dreams to show!
Silvery twilights in your majesty glow!
Beautiful melodies in your depths flow!
A world where magic spells come true!
Where wizards and fairies share a laugh or two!
A world where wishes do come true!
Where dazzling falling stars grant a wish or two!
Here I can be Tinkerbell .
Or sweet loving Ariel!
Here I can be Wendy.
Or sweet little orphan Cindy!
It is a world where I am free.
To dream,to wish and make life bliss!
It is a world where I am free.
To wait for my prince's adoring kiss!
(Linked to Jingle Poetry Potluck)
In this world of lies you gave me truths!
In this world of emptiness you gave me purpose!
In this world of sadness you gave me joys!
You are the gift that life has bestowed upon me!
You are the treasure that fate has given to me!
You are the story that love has written for me!
When I return to dust as man his fate to be.
My legacy remains,with you it will forever be.
For we are one in blood .As it was meant to be!
Withered and Rough!
What was once soft and young!
A legacy of her life's triumps and sighs!
Each line a memory of her journeys!
Each scar a proof of her strength!
A masterpiece of her life's joys and pains!
No painted nails and diamond rings to decorate!
Just sun burned skin and broken nails with no paint!
Yet no glittering stone could ever compare!
To the beauty that life has bestowed on it!
Her beautiful hands are now crossed to rest!
And I held on ever strongly so I can feel.
The warmth,the strength that guided me so.
Just one last time before I let her go!
Why are they scarred,when they should have been hugged?
Why steal their dreams and turn each day into a nightmare?
Why ruin their tomorrows and tie them down in their past?
Those eyes that should reflect joy,now only know pain.
Those eyes that should reflect trust,now only know fear.
Those eyes that should reflect love,now only know shame.
If I was there,would I have known her pleas?
If I had listened,would I have heard her screams?
If I had looked would I have seen her scars?
I would like to believe I could try!
To know ,to hear ,to see!
So I could help put back love in the eyes of this child!
In the silence of the night I'm here to listen.
In the absence of light I'm here to lead your way.
In the presence of pain I'm here to be your shield.
I Will Be Here!!!
When you wake up with nothing,I will be your everything.
When you ran out of hope,I will grant your deepest wishes.
When you get tired of tomorrows,I will give you a lifetime.
I Will Be Here!!!
The world may grow cold,draw comfort in my warmth.
The tears may seem endless,draw comfort in my laughters.
The trials may be hard,draw comfort in my strength.
I Will Be Here!!!
Ride the winds.Don't look back!
Let the past give you a great tomorrow.
Let the tears give you more laughters.
Let the pains give you never ending joy!
Ride the winds.Don't give up!
Let the sorrows give you happiness.
Let the anger give you wonderful peace.
Let the hate give you never-ending love!
Ride the winds.Don't ever hesitate!
Let the lies give you truths.
Let the emptiness give you fulfillment.
Let the end give you a new beginning.
There is a melody within my being.
Made of notes and keys of who I am.
A sonata of my life's joys and pains.
Growing melodious as I go on my journey!
There is a song within my soul.
Made of lyrics of the person that I am.
A beautiful ballad of my smiles and tears.
Growing soulful as I face my destiny!
There is a symphony within my heart.
Made of sounds of instruments of what I am.
A concerto of my weaknesses and strengths.
Growing harmonious as I prepare for eternity!
Am I greedy...because I want?
Am I naive ...because I believe?
Am I stupid...because I trust?
Am I a fool...because I love?
Am I a dreamer...because I hope?
Am I a romantic...because I desire?
I cry when I hear a sad song.
I scream when rage engulfs me.
I laugh when a joke is told.
I smile when i feel happy.
I guess I am but a woman.
I guess I am but a girl.
I guess I am but a child.
I guess I am but a human!
Blissful moments quietly pass by.
Comforting warmth embraces my heart.
And as the glow of day turn into night.
My soul rejoice with a peaceful sigh!
Though uncertainties engulfs my everyday.
Weakening my will to hope and dream.
I look around and search for small wonders.
Anticipating what fate has prepared for me.
And as I need,I know I also will be needed.
Thru my weaknesses,I will have my strengths.
For there will always be surprises to amaze me.
And unselfish love for me to share and give!
Rocky roads!Blissful mountains!
The journey is never ending!
Every battle fought,every struggle won.
They are what make the path worth taking.
There will always be mountains to climb.
There will always be new roads to walk.
There will always be challenges to face.
And there will always be love to give.
It is not what awaits the journey that matters.
It is not how much to be gained at the end of the day.
It is how much you fought to get there.
It is how much chances you've faced and taken.
One more dream to dream.
One more tear to shed.
One more step to take.
One more day to face ....and the journey of life goes on!
(A Collaboration Poem,By Shanty and June)
No words to say,my heart felt cold.
I waited for tears,but nothing flowed.
No feelings to share,no anger to unfold.
I listened as her life story was quietly told.
So young,so sweet,and now she's gone.
What amazing stories she can make is now untold.
So fast to end the life she has known.
And all that was left are her memories for our hearts to hold.
And through the emptiness that fills my soul,
I remember this word that brings so much joy.
And though I know I've used it to make life full,
I wonder now what FOREVER is for.
(In memory of a truly loving person.Beautiful inside and out.Maya...gonna miss you ,cousin.)
(P.S.Posting this again for Gooseberry Garden's Poetry Picnic .It's been a year but I can still sometime feel her presence.)
