Indeed Welshy , great words and food for thought
in this mad , crazy , insular , selfish world.

If all the good people could do one nice thing to help
the many less fortunate the world would instantly be
a much better and happier place for all. The little things
that people do to help may seem small , almost insignificant
but for those who it…[Read more]

Hello Rogue Trader ,
post any poems on the poetry in motion thread if you like.
It is as good place as any , the more the merrier i say and
that goes for anyone else who fancies doing so too. :lol:

Dread.

When you are wondering or just feeling
what it is you are thinking and seeing
do you dare to trust your mind
or will that just be another kind
of fruitless endless the usual quest
the ones that you seem to find the best.

A summers morn the rising sun
set your feelings free to run
go alone to your special place
feel the sun warm your…[Read more]

Changes.

Bleak Autumnal trees bereft of leaves
bare and barren brought to their knees
all powerful Mother nature waving her wand
oh so powerful you must understand.

Cold and bare left in the dark
branches withered sparse and stark
waiting for comfort warmth and love
feeling so blatantly misunderstood.

Yearning the following Spring to…[Read more]

F##K OFF

Well i really don’t know…..
you leave for a few days and…
some kind of poetry troll does see fit to…
well sees fit to TROLL a pleasant and
gentle thread of simple poems and
quiet contemplation of simple means.

This is not a thread for any budding or wannabe Poet Laureate
it is quite simply a place for simple poems to hopefully create…[Read more]

The path

When one can seem to be so strong yet fail in wordly ways
it makes no sense it has no reason why these things bear such a load
the rights or wrongs will not matter as thy strength will see you through
no path will be impassable nor will no stone will remain unturned.

If you can see the passage ahead and defeat the foe in sight

That was a tad sceptical and maybe even blase
is that what you simply just came here to say
the use of free verse had not gone away
it simply waits patiently to be written another day.

As there are many forms in which poetry can be used
who is anyone to say which is more likely to amuse
enjoyment from reading or writing is simply what it is

Sands of time

Looking back to those distant childhood years
the times were happy we never knew many fears
and so through time through hope and through growing up
we took for granted happiness playing friendships all the childrens stuff.

As time goes by it is measured so little
so your memories you must never whittle
the sands of time are there…[Read more]

Wonderful poem tinks , that was emotive and drawn from
personal and happy memories no doubt.

The journey

A leaf falls from its sanctuary in the tree
drifting aimlessly on the mercy of the breeze
not knowing where its going or where its meant to be
ending its journey but at last finally it is set free.

A journeys end now awaits the solitary leaf
a garden on a park or just settling on the heath
the ending may be short lived or may go on…[Read more]

Thank you netty , it is good when a poem or words evoke memories
and can be attributed to places , people or events from someones past
or present.

Thank you penny , when someone appreciates poetry it is nice of them to
say so :D

Time is endless love is sparse
looking for love find the source
it begins with you it’s inside us all
but always be ready for the fall.

Feelings come and feelings go
they pick you up or make you low
good or bad they find you out
make you laugh and make you shout.

Happy joyful smiling laughing
all the good things love can bring
sadness despair…[Read more]

From light to dark to light.

White cloud
feeling proud
bright sun
for someone.

Night star
from afar
shines bright
giving light.

Dark skies
endless sighs
black cloud
dark shroud.

Suns rays
happy days
warm place
smiling face.

The Quest/

Love lorn
heart torn
empty space
endless chase.

Night-time fears
silent tears
sobbing heart
falling apart.

Running scared
so afraid
alone again
endless pain.

Broken dreams
it seems
so stark
broken heart.

Thank you for the comments , feel free to post a poem of your own anybody.
Here is one called Tranquil.

Babbling brook running deep
gentle flow soothing feet
walking slowly taking care
country breeze in your hair.

In the distance rolling hills
breathe the air enjoy how it feels
shimmering sun-rays through the mist
a beautiful summer sunrise not…[Read more]
