Believe it or not, Some things are indeed important to me, They may not mean much to you, But that doesn't mean they cannot be. Is your way the only way? All you think and believe all that is right? I'm afraid it doesn't work that way, Again my day becomes night. You cannot change the who and what I am, Cannot persuade me to your ways, I need what I need to function, And sometimes to get through the day. They are dreams, fantasy's, fancy's, Hell you don't know my inner mind, Take note, and really look, And you'd be surprised at what you find. If I need a little R & R I am selfish, If I need a few talismen around it's just junk, Momento's merely a waste of money, I don't want a life lived in a funk. Incense is aromatherapy for mind and soul, Friendship a gift I won't let go, Talismen, statues, beliefs, To me they are necessary in life's to and fro. The pictures on the walls all mean soemthing to me, Places or things I love, A glimpse of freedom for me, Nature's abundance sent from above. My animals, my pets, just more mouths to feed, To me they are family, They induce more love in this heart, A wonderful thing to celebrate and accept freely. A necklace, a bracelet, a ring, If a gift from one I love, It will always be a treasure, They adorn this body with love. I'm sorry you don't understand, Or should I say refuse to understand, But so many things mean so much to me, In a way they lend a helping hand. And in this world of hardship, hatred and disease, Am I wrong to want to surround myself with the little things that please? The little things that mean so much? That offer me a brief realease? I think not....... I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

It's hard when someone doesn't understand why you hold on to the things that you do. . . all we can do is try to help them see. . . Excellent poem. . . -------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

I have to a agree with Sven on this....all we can do is continue to hold onto those things and to try to help them understand. Another great poem Isis *hugglez* keep it up... ![]() Listen to your heart for it knows the way even when you don't. ~*Angel of Darkness*~ |

I have beautiful things that have been packed away for years, but are oh so precious even so (from my Grams or someone like that) and I have heard time and time again.....you have all this junk, get rid of it...you haven't used it or seen it in years. Hmmph! Great rendition of some very real feelings ~H |

Thanks guys!! X Angel I am not a horder by any means, just one object from those I love, but they are so valued. I don't have many either, so it's not as though it is junk taking up room. Just cannot bear to part with them like you. Glad you liked it ![]() I'll tell you this......

XAngel I knew you'd take it the wrong way!! Sorry hon, wasn't saying you are a hoarder, merely that I was not!! Depending on how this poem is taken, someone could think I have rooms full of crap!! Understand me now, sorry for the miscommunication. Isis I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

I have but a few "things". Small, silly, ugly things from which I would never willingly part because they hold such treasured memories. I think the memories are worth holding on to. God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |

God if anyone here is a hoarder it's me, haha, I've got crud from way back. haha One of my main passions is I collect menus from restaurants, hahaha can you think of anything so useless... I collected them from the 70's. over 300. hahaha. I just started to display them on a long hallway. some are out of sight. leather bound, and odd shapes. anyway,,, yes I do keep things. hahaha hhhhooowwwwllll Joel. I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel. |

~Isis,...alone??? Never. I have so many seemingly silly things that I can't get rid of that mean so much to me. Hold on to what you have that mean much to you and get what it is you need from them,..that's what I do. ![]() |
