A thought of you
Brings happiness to my soul.
I close my eyes to paint you
In my dreams, but
...
The wind whispers a cold tune,
A sense of loneliness fills the air.
The unkindness of the world
Echoes through my mind.
...
this is my first piece of writing that started my love of writing. I hope you enjoy it
As I sit here contemplating my life, I see three different people. First, I see the little boy who was scared to do anything wrong in his father's eyes. I am the little boy who was so eager to grow up and not have to answer to anyone. I see the young boy making grown-ups decisions. I am the young boy becoming a father, seeing his baby for the first time, ready and willing to do whatever is needed for his family. Despite all efforts, the effects of having children too early take its toll on the young father and his family. Eventually the father becomes a single parent. I see the young father realize that he is no longer the eager little boy. As the years pass the father sees his baby grow. I see the father being there with his child for the first day of school and being the only father in a room full of mothers, the black sheep of this family. I see the father rubbing his son's stomach when it hurts, cheering up his son when he is sad and when his son has a cut, the father cleans it and puts a band-aid on it and even gives the kiss, that makes it feel better. So looking back, I see that I will always be that eager little boy who is now both father and mother.

I see under myself,
In the acrylic mirror.
Expressionless portrait
Of sorrow and wonderment
...
Over excessive society,
Underdeveloped minds.
Grouped groups, linked
Produced in modes, suffocating
...
Warmth and illumination seep through the curtains,
The morning song of the rooster, echoes through the room
Like Pavarotti hitting that note in the opera house.

This is my first poem that I wrote for my class and you guessed it, it's about my class.
I see the young woman who lived with nuns
and lived to tell about it. The story she tells, has
...
I wandered through the
shadows deep.
Where silence stirred, and
dreams would sleep.

I am single father/fulltime student. I am going to school for business so I may one day open my own business. I just enjoy my poems and especially other peoples poems.)
A Thought Of You
A thought of you
Brings happiness to my soul.
I close my eyes to paint you
In my dreams, but
I am sadden knowing,
I will never hug you or
Hold you.
We are worlds apart and
In two different times.
I know you would draw me the world
or write my happiness, if I asked.
You live in the land
Of The cross forest, a sacred land
For our sacred friendship,
I may never meet you
But
I’m forever yours.
these poems are quite interesting, my fave is warmth and illumination
