Word Card Poems

Touched by a blossom
Just one thing stirs you
Toxic blossom
Everything that I understand
Exquisite Willow

So on and so on
Tomorrow timeless
Horizons
See the light dawning
Here comes the sun

Stop the fighting
The killing
The murder
Only greedy people
Benfit from it
While the poor
Die for them
Stop the fighting
The killing
The murder

Old Home-Nikki

I look back to my home,
A place we call swamp,
I am now in focus,
my new not-home,
Always missing
My old home.

I sit by these dragons,
A lost not-gator,
I spread my new wings,
Always reaching for
My Old Home.

I am a dragon,
But remain a gator at heart.
I hope someday soon,
To once again see
My Old Home.

I miss you gators! I can't wait to see you all again =)

Labyrinth Poem by Mercedes Turner

Laughing students everywhere
Across the way
Bouncing around in circles
Yawning but remaining focused
Reaching for the top
In the daylight
Never giving up on life
Thinking of the beautiful flowers
Haha there happy!

Sunset




The girl sits on the porch looking at the sunset,

knowing somewhere he is also.

He, who will be her future husband, her soul mate.

As she takes it all in she wonders,

Does he see what I see? Is he close to me?

Do I already know this he?

She looks at the sunset and anticipates

What lies ahead and what her life will be like when the mysterious he and she will one day sit on the porch, together, looking at the sunset.

(2) Magnetic Poetry by Rachel Edwards

Addicted



He drinks because he knows no better

He knows it takes him pain away and let him forget about his past and for a short time his past is erased

But he knows it’s not the answer;

But he’s addicted;

He drinks



Stand Up



You face difficulties day after day

Instead of breaking down

Rise up with strong faith

And overcome the fight

Sonnet by Rachel Edwards

The Language of Love



We sit on the porch and all is quiet

Wanting but not going in for a kiss

Without it, our lives become a riot

We feel as though we have reached an abyss

Not feeling the sun, not seeing the trees

We want to climb out, see the flowers of June

Experience the fine beauty of seas

Connect to each other, forming a rune

It will soon evolve like a blooming rose

Our love will illuminate from afar

It will feel so right, like sand through toes

It will produce sweet song, like a guitar

It is precious, something we need to save

It is confident and most of all brave.

Walk About Poem by Rachel Edwards

Hero



How Do You Do It?

Living With Death and Dying

Understanding the Emptiness

Dealing With the Loss of A Loved One

To Have the Power

Not Like the Rest Of Us

How Much Is Too Much?

Do You Ever Wanna Quit?

Break Down and Cry

My Brave Soul,

Well Done, You Have Won the Fight

You Can Now Move On

Gung Ho!

Go Live Your Life

Protest Poem by Tyler Daniels

The draft separated many families.

It took young men’s lives.
Yet we feel no remorse.
The number 012 was called
Death, fear, tragedy
The draft.

Word Card Poem by Tyler Daniels

Your world divine
We’ll take you there

Look around
Forty years later
Everyday
See yourself
Building character
Is it possible?

Find your voice
That stirs the soul

Magnetic Poetry by Rachel Edwards

Life
Young or Old
Men and Women
LIfe is too sacred
Not to smile
To Cut off Joy

Magnetic Poetry by Tyler Daniels

Labryinth Poem by Tyler Daniels

Walking on an unknown path,
With the peaceful, serene nature guiding me.
A personal journey that all must face
To come at peace with one self is perfect.
I finally reached my goal through that maze.

Haiku By Rachel Edwards

Nature's Language

Swaying willow trees
Softly telling a story
Nature's own language


The Ocean

Sea of endless blue
Expanding beyond my sight
Never seems to stop


Autumn

Autumn brings new sights
Deep red, orange and yellow leaves
A beautiful time


Spring

Flowers blossoming
Springtime smells arising
Spring has now begun


Summertime Noises

Birds singing their songs
Lightning bugs glowing at night
Crickets loud chirping
