your little life




your little life 


words you've written on the page
explain the deeds you did today
descriptions of the life you lead
how you love, how you bleed

verbs and nouns now crowd the lines
pointing to the life's warning signs
of where to go and what to do
you do the things that make you you

phrases phrased reflect your mind
show the inner heart defined
emotions spilled in little pools
joy and tears for friends and fools

adjectives that make their mark
in the light and in the dark
mirror what you wish you had
taking all the good with bad 

ten thousand words may fill your book
with poetic license that you took
to make your little life look big
will any other give a fig?

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...

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.
