Hi. I also have noticed that alot of members, including myself, write poetry. So I thought why not let them share poems they have written themselves. If some one else posts one of theirs, I'll post one of mine. Also the poems can be about anything whether its dark or bright. :wink:

You see a guy on a skateboard,
He looks like he's wastin time,
Not even spendin a dime,
He flipped a trick,
Nothin but a 180 backflip.

Ya bustin a move,
Wishin you were in his shoes,
Wild an' free,
Sayin that's what you wanna be.

They got cool and style,
Everything they do is worth while,
What is your's?

Here a poem I wrote as promised:

The Perfect day


As the winds soar in the dark cloudy sky
Like the fish swimming in the deep blue sea
Looking back on past memories of you and I
Knowing that like fish and water you found me

Waves crash into the grains of watered sand
Walking along the beach with you by my side
The water whistles with you holding my hand
And without words I tell you how I feel inside

Your hands running through my silky hair
While you touch my smooth sun lit face
Dreaming of our life that we're about to share
Like heaven; With you there's no better place

Your soft lips kiss my bright rosy cheek
Reassuring me its not lust, its only love
Opened my mouth only unable to speak
As God answered my prayers from above

We gaze off while the sky is still bright
Where this will lead no one does know
Ready to create another memory tonight
But before we can sleep we spot a rainbow

Hoping that you'll always be right here
Both our souls combining to make one
Watching all the fish as the cold gets near
Like stars blinded by the rays of the sun

Your body so warm, you hold me close
Massaging my neck as if I were tense
But we were meant to be and it shows
Even though love never makes sense

Galileo Ace's? I could have sworn it was mine... am I going to have to start up a fight club now?

But yeah, the writing showcase definitely could use some more submissions.

Great poem AspieGurl! I thought that it was really good. It has lots of pictures in it, and it feels like you're there.

I write poetry, but it's not as good as the stuff already posted.

http://purplefluffychainsaw.deviantart.com/gallery/poetry/?view=1&order=5&limit=24 That's the four I have posted on Devart - A mixture of angst (Grave and Friendship) and humour (Worlds and Brenna's Drinking Song).

Aaaand, annoyingly, the one poem that I have published isn't on my PC. :roll: *Runs upstairs to find it*

Nobody nowhere

Nobody no where,
Nowhere?
Not home or away,
Will I find you one day?

Somebody somewhere,
But where?
Home or away,
A year or a day?

I know your out there,
I've seen you,
I know you,
But where?

I really don't like that one.

You have seen me along side the roads and freeways and byways,
I am the nowhere man, going everywhere i can, going nowhere fast, but ending up everywhere at last.

The poll offers nothing higher than 30. I've been writing for 13 years now...

Here's one I just wrote off the cuff now. Yeahyeah, I know, it's pretty uplifting


A Man Who Never Was

One of the greatest tragedies of spirit
to ever walk this land
Buried under chains
and sealed an eternity far a way
Is a man who never was
Who never got to be
Who watches helplessly though the eyes
Of someone who he’s not
He lives eternally searing
In a hell he could not escape
A soul disengaged
From the body in which he dwells
Who has no right or say
In the person projected without
He watches his whole life
Slip away in front of his face
Every opportunity turn to dust
And his prime dissolving fast
And every dream he had
Flowering in mold
And the world just can’t see it
They don’t even know he’s there
He eternally burns
Stuck being someone he’s far better than
In this story there is no hope
He’ll watch his body fail
Watch his hair turn gray
Watch his family die
He'll watch the world spin
He'll watch the time go by
And his only redeeming hope
Is to wait the next 60 years to die
And yet the body teases him
Gives him fleeting moments of control
Makes him think there might be a way somehow
To break from his cell
But his resolve slowly wanes
And knows that if he does
It may be too little too late
By the time he’s able to break his bonds
The most beautiful things he saw
Have already passed him by
and by the time he's free
dead and gone all his dreams will be

I don't know, now that I wake up and look at it again I'm almost half tempted to delete it. I guess I'll still leave it up since it has its relevance at times but I think there's 'poetry' and then there's that kind of thing...

I like writing goofy haikus.

Koalas are cute
Conserving their energy
Roaring and sleeping

I wrote one about Indian food farts, but that one's not PG :twisted:
