I replied to this. It's called "Always in Darkness" and it isn't the cheeriest of poems, but I hope it suffices. Keep your hopes up and if you need a ride, I'm sure a traveling shooting star will give you a lift. ~Astraea "Sometimes stars can only be seen in darkness."

~*Hi, I'm new to this site, but nevertheless always up for a challenge... So here goes hope you like it ![]() Gift From A Child There's something really beautiful about the wonder of a child Everything's new and exciting they let their imaginations run wild In a constant quest for answers, whatever they may be Children see things we will never see They question things we have taken for granted, Like the sky, the trees, the grass, the beauty of our planet If they could only teach us to see things like they do, I'm sure we'd see a beauty of life that we forgot we knew! |

Hi! i am new here name is Raven. I wrote this 4 a friend of mine hope it makes u laugh. The Real Story of Cinderella The fairy tale of Cinderella , a story to behold Often told to little girls for the story is quite old It reads a tale of sadness, a child’s life of woe Forced to be a servant to cook ,clean, and to sow Cinderella roamed her dwelling dressed in tattered rages Rejected by her stepmother to whom never cease to nag As the Years passed by she suffered hardships and great pain Convinced this would forever be her life within the dust, the ashes she would remain Than one day when walking a prince and her both met A ball to choose a wife was had. Cinderella the prince did choose A wedding day was set The story ends as Cinderella weds than her prince They both live happily ever after yet I am not convinced This my friend is but a Fairy-Tale and one each girl clings to like a vine But I believe a different tale in past occurred Read Forth Once upon a Time Cinderella a woman so very wise knew that to escape she must Free her life of servitude leave behind her life of dust To be , she than must marry, to become anther’s wife. Yet in doing so Cinderella knew still a servant would she be and remain so for all life Far off with in the Kingdom another battle was unfolding A wife you now must take said the King unto his son Choose a maiden from this kingdom I decree it now it must be done There is not one among this kingdom that I Love with all my heart Choose not for love but lust my son To ensure you’ll never ever part Cinderella appearing rough around the edges bore great intelligence with in A plan she set in motion to beguile the handsome Prince She smiled at him coyly and teased him with her grin The Prince captivated by her beauty set a date to marry her post haste But not for love as the story goes, lust was in truth the reason he chose Fair Cinderella as his mate upon their night of marriage the Prince inquired as to why she grinned what is was she found to be so funny Oh ‘Tis true my prince you married me for lust I married not for love instead I wed you for all the money Cinderella and her prince both roared with merry laughter neither married for that of love never the less the two agreed They would live happily ever after copyright Raven Legros |

I'll do my best. A smile is made for things that are firsts. My baby takes his first step Flowers on my first anniversary First love A smile is also made for favorite memories. Best friend Visits to see grandparents Very first pet But my favorite reason to smile is: It makes people wonder what your up to. ken |

Not in poetry form but here is something inspiring that I personally like.... This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever. In it's place is something you have left behind ...... make it be something good. There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |
