Some have talents that come from the heart. They make others feel special. They bring a smile to others. Their talents are from a life force that makes others always want to 'hear' from them. Be around them. Yes, you have a great talent. Being you.

Default For My Mom

Take a moment of time....... and think about it.
Was it what you thought it would be?
Was there a silent night? Were birds in flight?
Had the boats headed out to sea?
Did you look at the sky, as the clouds drifted by?
Did you stare at the ocean and cry?
On one windy day....you were taken away......
without notice, nor mention.......God why?

As we walked on the sand.....and the chill
slightly came. Did you know it would be our
last day?
If only I knew ......I'd of been more to you.....
There is so much I had left to say.
Did God says its time? Did you ask him why?
Or was it written in the sand?
Was there only one footprint as he carried you
away.......was he holding your loving hand?

You taught me that our life is short. It can end
at any time. .............To appreciate the little things.....
and not make life a grind.

If I could have one wish today.....I'd take a moment
like this................
To imprint this image of time and place.
To see your eyes, and careing face.

When clouds drift by....I will try not to cry...
as the ocean goes racing away......
For I lost you one night.....when the stars
shone so bright,with a "sliver of moon" ......
so "you say".......

Its moments like this.......that I truely miss....
A moment in a space and glory.
That I walk on the sand......trying to hold you
hand....and remember that .....its now just "our
story".
*********************

For the love of my Mom........ Summering
This I wrote on the spur of the moment on
Websleuths.... The story is so very true,
having spent that time on a beach in
South Carolina.....

940 - I'm sure you can write very well. You let the words flow on paper.

I never said anything before, but I have had poems published. What I post on here is cheesy. I don't like to share a lot of my life on message boards. Too many whacko's.

Poetry - is what one feels. It doesn't matter if the poem makes a lot of sense. It's feeling's written down.

My poems are more on the sad side -

Now, I've been working on a song. I would love someday -for it to be heard on the radio, lmao!!!!!!
