I love to write about my Love the one I adore and love with all my heart The one God has sent to me from above About the starry nights we look upon from the beautiful white beaches in the soft velvet skies The beautiful sunsets and the sunrises of a beautiful morn Of our love that we truly believe to be forevermore Never ending, with us always together About our life of love, of joy and happiness To write of our love together makes me feel better ALWAYS But...... There are past hurts that I NEED to face up to...to write about Happenings from previous times that I wish came no longer to mind And don't UNTIL I read some poem or hear some song or see some movie THEN the hurts, disappointments DARK MEMORIES of yesteryear come to mind I NEED to write of those terrible things those dark memories of yesteryear so that the scars will heal never to be remembered again NEVER again to be remembered To be forgotten FOREVER |

Sometime back, one of our poets said "write outside of the box...write the you, that you never show." I fell across one of those poems the other day, and for some reason, I thought of you. Thought about reposting it, too...but it may be that I should just send you the link. Yes, Ethel, sometimes we have to write of those things that are the most difficult to speak of...sometimes that's where, and when, the healing will begin. |

Oh, my dear sweet Ethel Mae, I do so understand where you are coming from with this write. I for one, welcome poetry that comes from every aspect of your being and past experiences. I know that many of our readers have come to expect more up-beat poems from you and I. It sometimes shakes them up when we write otherwise and from less than sun shiny perspectives! That way we're not so predictable and we can blow off some less than angelic steam! lol Love ya lots, u know! Linda Lou |

Helen, I think writing is one of the best therapies of all time for just about anything. I liked the way you show the contrast in this poem and your choice of font styles, as well. |

Hi Ethel, a touching poem that pulled at my heartstrings. NEVER again to be remembered To be forgotten FOREVER I'm not sure our memories good or bad can ever be forgotten. But we can learn from the bad ones and ask God to heal us from them so that they no longer haunt us with a painful sting. I will offer prayers for you. Hugs for healing, Marti If you truly love Nature, you will find |

Ethel Life is a mix of happy and sad times...poetry speaks of them all, as you should. Loved the honesty of this poem, and all that you write. |
