Some Are Drawn

Some Are Drawn


Some are drawn to dark and pain,
enduring, suffering, endless strain.
Hiding, blocking, shunning light,
no escape from loathsome plight.

Some are drawn to joy and light,
smiling, basking, sun’s delight.
Forgetting, healing, cathartic gain,
released from power’s inner pain.

Some are drawn to doom and gloom,
alone with nightmares, lonely room.
Cringing, crying in the dark,
forgetting life’s loving spark.

Some are drawn to hope and sun,
desiring love for everyone.
Reaching, expecting life’s everyday,
anticipating, positive, smiling way.

Some will choose to turn aside,
from selfish, lonesome, blinding pride.
Some will choose the love of life,
trade pain for peace, lose inner strife.

Love Builds - Love Makes

These poems are dedicated to my friend +kim hodges  and to new love.             Love Builds          MARCUZZI AND FRA By lufra Love builds, blossoms, blooms. Love covers, hovers, discovers. Love flowers, showers, empowers. Love thinks, remembers, forgets. Love grows, knows, shows. Love shields, yields, heals. Love finds, blinds, binds. © 2013 ajwrites57 A Long Love Makes Love makes you fly, gets you high. Love makes laugh, makes you cry. Love makes you sigh,  makes you wanna try. Love gets you giddy, makes you feel pretty, Love empowers you to take a city! Love makes you happy,  makes you feel sappy. Love makes your heart sing, Love gives you thoughts of queens and kings. © 2013 ajwrites57 A Long Photo  By CynthiaNaniOKeefe If you enjoyed these poems, find more  here.

Life Without Color

Someone asked, "What would your life be without color?"  I answered,  "My life would be pallid and pale without color.  Each day would be drab, dreary and dismal.  There'd be no primary colors, no rainbows,  no yellow sunshine, no red-blue-yellow sunsets  and no white clouds. No white snow or black storm clouds.  I'd walk in an indistinct and neutral existence.  No green  trees, no green  grass, no blue seas, no blue skies,  would leave me cheerless and dry. My face would not turn red  with anger or embarrassment. My face would not turn white  with fear or pain. I'd not grow green with envy.  Nothing would be just black and white.  My life would be full of motionless emotion,  if there were no color. © 2013 ajwrites57 Image URI:  http://mrg.bz/fwDYZp Image URI:  http://mrg.bz/g6haeq By  Hairysuncold Please find my other writings on Hub...
