Passions in Poetry Passions, to me, is a great place to be. When I found it I was alone, But now it is my family. A family that shares and is willing to listen, A collection of poems that, like diamonds, glisten. When I am here, I feel so warm, This is the best place to shelter from life’s storms. No one has laughed at my poor attempts at poetry, Have you any idea how much that means to me? Passions is my second home, I hope that doesn’t sound lame, It warms me within like a bright, glowing flame. Ron, you are an angel, how did you create such a wonderful place... Free from prejudice of colour, size. looks or race. Every time I visit my heart starts to sing, This haven truly has given my soul wings. I have laughed, I have cried, I have smiled, I have sighed. About my feelings I have never had to lie. Passions is a gift that fills me with delight, From life’s burdens it gives me respite. Passions, for me, has opened a door, It has a special place in my heart for evermore. |

I know how you feel! I can't tell you how many times I have read someone's work and thought that (if I was more talented!) I might have written that about my own situation. It really helps to know that there are other people out there with the same stuff going on. And even if there isn't, the people here are always willing to listen. This was a great poem about Passions, and I'd like to thank everyone here for all the support they have given to me and everyone else. April |

This place really is like a second home, a safe haven from our every-day life where we can be ourselves freely and be accepted. I liked the way you expressed this in the form of a poem, perfect way to do it, huh? Great job! ![]() *There is no destination where we are Please take me somewhere far Far away from this world of mine* (by me) |

Dear Esp; What a beautiful poem and so well written. I feel exactly the same way you do. I'm visiting from the "Spiritual Forum", and we are like a family there too. I just popped in to read a little. I'm a Mom of six and my youngest is 12, so I was curious what kind of poetry teens were writing and reading your poem was pure joy! Ellie 02 |

Exellent poem, I think it is wonderful that there is a place that so many people can come togeather and share thoughts and ideas, and want to thank you ESP for saying thank you to Ron for me (and all of us) in such an appropriate way... *God Bless* "Here I stand I can do none other"---Luther |

i love passions too ![]() makes me forget the woes of the day. i wrote a poem on how great passion is when i first started here ![]() THE BEAUTY OF PASSIONS IN POETRY to sit and read i do enjoy poems are reality and beyond a tear is shed a smile is to be had a verse for the day i hold fond creating a piece and posting a thrill i can't deny to be proud of a piece of work then for there to be an encouraging reply what keeps the poets mind nimble is not that of love, hate or pain it is the feeling of being appreciated a form of low scale fame for why would we write if eyes would never fall upon our art? the truth is that we write for ourselves to share with others from the heart for now dusk is approaching the end of the day is near for now i will retire but at dawn i will return here keep up the posts ![]() Bec |
