The teddy bear sis in the corner
With his friend, the bunny.
The dog lays on the bed
With his friend, the cat.
It is only the frog that sits
All by itself, on the shelf.
Watching, but not being.
For how can it be when
It has noone to share with.
Its wise whisperings;loving words.
It sits there, watching.

The bear and the bunny?
They heed no attention.
Why should they?  For the frog
Is an ugly thing with
Only inner beauty, a wise mind
And a light heart.
It is not sorrowful that it
Sits by itself and does not
Share with anything else.
For it is the frog and the one
Who is loved the best.

(3-27-90, in my younger years)


  Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.
-Enigma

sweet sonjes...your heart is shining in this, how caring of you to post this to let them know you understand...]
love this poem using childhood treasures to make your point..
take care, jm

 Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
You never knew what I loved in you
I don't know what you loved in me
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be
