I'm Barbara, better known as Star¤.
I'm 49 and I am living in Amherst, MA.,

Here you will see pictures of friends and family, You will also see poems I have collected from people on the Net. I don't usually know who wrote them or where they originate from. I do however think they are very nice and wanted to be able to share them with others. Now if you do have a poem or saying you also think would be nice to share, and would like me to post them, just e-mail them to me. I would also be happy to add your name in as a participant in this adventure of collecting poetry either via the Net or just one of your favorites.

I have one I wrote it's a poem with a question, it's real to me as I have found
there is one problem some people seem to have..

If you like it or want to comment on it please e-mail me :)

A HUG?
Isn't a hug suppose to be a good thing…
Then why are so many people afraid of it?

A hug warms the heart and sooths the soul
A hug lifts you up when you feel down
A hug is just a simple thing that does so much.

When you're a child and your feeling hurt
Your mom hugs you and it seems to make the pain go away
When you see a friend a hug says I'm glad to be with you

A hug is a welcome home or I hate to see you go
A hug is nurturing or consoling

There's no rules to hugging, no gender specifications
It's a feeling or emotion that can only help you
And the person your with.

So again I ask " why are so many people afraid to hug?"
I don't know the answer and maybe I'll never know
However I will always offer a Hug to a friend, family
Member or even an acquaintance that may need one.

Remember a hug is just a simple thing that can do so much good!

This next one i wrote just a short time ago, my life is in transition and I'm feeling the loss of someone i love very much.

Tears Within My Soul

The sky is gray and millions of tears are
falling like the tears within my soul.
What is it that has turn these skies
so gray that have engulfed my soul so deep in darkness
it doesn’t know how to escape.

Is it for the love I have lost or the love I cannot find.
I search through my soul in the days
gone by and look back at the love I had and lost.
His memory consumes me; his face is burnt into my every thought
and with every glimpse another tear is formed within my soul.

Does he know how he has left me, does he know how lost I feel without him.
Does he know I die a bit more each day I spend without him?

I try to look forward; I try to imagine having a life again
with maybe someone new. The future I try so hard to imagine
seems to slide away under a cloud of misery and doubt
as I can only feel the tears within my soul all consuming me.

So how will I go on; how will this all end
and will the tears within my soul keep flowing forever.

Some Personal Favorites:

IF I KNEW

If I knew it would be the last time That I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep

If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more.

If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day, Well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything just right.

There will always be another day to say "I love you," And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do?"

But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear, Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry," "Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay." And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
