SADOWS OF YESTERDAY
by Tex

I wish the hands of time would turn;
Spin back to simpler days without concern.
Back to a time and place when old bridges, I did burn.

There are moments, though fleeting,
I do yearn,
When memories start to churn,
And the shadows of yesterday begin to sojourn.

I wish...but no.

Would I want to unlearn,
And spurn
The lessons and knowledge I have earned,
To visit the "Past Regrets" tavern?

Father Time commands the urn
That one day will overturn,
And chime the time to adjourn.

My submissions thus far:


texanomaly: Untitled for now

Could we call it blight on this country fair?
Mans cruelty to Man centuries bygone,
Such disease this country to become heir.
Monsters and demons the practice did spawn.


Throughout those years, a darkness did descend.
Man bought and sold without any recourse.
To wound and molest without recompend.
Tearing mother from Child, held no remorse.


Though progress was made in the years that passed,
Some continued to spread the infection.
But into the pond, a small stone was cast,
By he who brought peaceful resolution.


When will we re'lize from whence we ALL come.
From then to now, we must tally the sum. ~Tex
texanomaly:
7. YOUR NAME FOR MINE

E ntreaty from afar.
V ibrations that stir this "heart in a jar".
E mboldened, by the touch of your breath.
R ecognized and appreciated till death.
E nabling our hearts, like bells to ring.
S uch sweet songs, together we'll sing.
T easing words pass in the mist,
D eepening affection,
E victing thoughts of predilection.
B eguiling eyes in a cherubic face.
L oving little boy in our embrace.
I nstilled in him your fathers and mine.
U nbreakable bond, His design.
~Tex

I remember why no punctuation now. I don't like how it looks with punctuation. I decided to just put a question mark at the end.

A Dream

I laid down on the bed, waiting for mother nature to take its cause,
Like a twilight, a wind blew me in a Planet where I couldn't figure whatsover;

I wandered in the darkness,
a cave--I took the route and my head spinned and tickled that I had to take a rest.

I met so many fairies,
from snow-white to goblin, little birds whilstling and frogs croaking;

Oh!, a bell rung and I woke up from the dreamland and ready to school.
Nice concept. Be carful with your grammar, and change your title! angry

Miss Veralaw. Your theme is awesome.
Just that,

Every line of a poem starts with a block letter.
And, always remember to punctuate your poem just like you'd punctuate an essay.

You made some mistakes in the punctuation.

But overall, this is a good poem.
Make sure you read more and more poems.
Ciao cheesy

I concur. Nice job Veralaw. smiley

I've been telling everyone who used "Random Ramblings", it is the tittle of my poetry thread. Laykorn only used it as an example. He meant for you to come up with your own title, something that fits your personality. Please don't use mine. Thanks.

One thing though...when Laykorn mentioned my "Random Ramblings" thread, he meant that as an example for a tittle, not that you should use mine. Try to come up with your own tittle that reflects your personality. smiley

kudos dear.....
since the first line is a question, you should punctuate wit a question mark.
Line 4 was not punctuated at the end.....keep it up
The sky is ur starting point

This collection is exquisite. I enjoyed reading every one. I agree with the above. You need to work on punctuation. Great job!

I've enjoyed what you've done so far, and I look forward to more, if that says anything. The most important thing is that you enjoy it though.

Oops...lol

Now I understand.


Ok. It needed punctuation for one.


SHADOW


Silently and swiftly
He follows without a wimp.
Abuts his owner through thick and thin.
Dedicated and faithful. Oh! What a friend.
On-board the train even in death.
Whatever befalls he sticks around.


Silently He observes.
He sees but says naught.
Abide by the good and the bad.
Denies no one the pleasure of their devise.
Oblivious though he seems,
Wine not. He's always there.

I lay down to sleep
And finally glide into the deep.
As the fabric of reality is pulled aside,
I'm finally freed from the anxieties and worries
Of the day that seems endless.
I embrace the tranquility of the night,
And finally put my head to rest.

Where did we miss it?
How did it go wrong?

We left the ancient path,
A man with a woman,
The natural way.
We derailed what
Is meant to be,
And pursued this madness called
Gay
But I hear the echoes again.
Man and woman he made them.

It's Adam and Eve,
Not Adam and Steve.

Music of the spheres
Sounds sweetly to my ears,
And sings melody as it dares
To all that cares
To hear.

I am told it's bright,
And promised it had much in stock.
I look forward with enthusiasm,
And work towards it with all I've got.
I endure the scorch, the beat.

I see it just ahead,
And finally, I embrace it,
As I walk right into...
My foretold future.
