RICARDO JOHNS Poems

When the wind is howling, and the winter nights are cold
Youll find me by a glowing fire, a blanket around my toes
The music fills the room, of love songs old and new,
all these songs, they bring a tear, my love i think of you
...

How can I be screaming out to the world
but my lips don't move

how can my heart beat so loudly, but feels
...

My boat has been taken from the sea
Where it cannot be stressed by tide and wave
Now hanging from a crane, still at last
The sea smashes the shore, but I feel safe
...

Words can be just that, Words, or they can rock the world, bring the bravest soldier to his knees, build the foundations to bring another life into this world.
It has the capacity to enhance, destroy, bring love or hate, hope or despair, lift the heart or take away a heart beat.
It can bring passion to the eyes that can light a room, or make it fade to a dying ember, a single word can change a destiny, change life's fundamental meaning.
It can give hope, desire and love where there was none, and must be used wisely, to give warmth, caring, love and trust, to give a positive in life, and take away negative feelings, to make love grow and to show the love we feel for each other.

Lifes a three hundred and sixty five day jigsaw
attempted every day
Each piece so very different
but join together, in the same way.
