Poetry means nothing to me
not just a phase
but a way of life
after so long
I too will say goodbye
but once the roses thorny arms lift to pray
I know a poem will be so true
as God will seek my soul
when I begin to walk his waters

Poetry not only means nothing to me
but it is everything inside of me
lost but now found
a new person I am
I never knew I could be so wrong
a poem is a prayer
a poem is  my life so dear

Poetry means the world to me
yet nothing at all
keeps it from meaning nothing
poetry means the world to me
its an openning of doors
a new beginning

a forever
when never is present
a never when forever cannot be seen

Kellie~
This has such interesting lines of thought~

'after so long
I too will say goodbye
but once the roses thorny arms lift to pray
I know a poem will be so true
as God will seek my soul
when I begin to walk his waters'

Absolutely beautiful !!

'a forever
when never is present
a never when forever cannot be seen'


Just a little piece of Wow !

(big hugggssssss) Oh Kellie, I think I see what you mean and indeed it can be so contradictive yet while it sometimes sounds like nothing it really has so much meaning! (sigh) Keep writing, sweet friend, you are a true talented friend to us all, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kellie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
