A little about my poetry and verse. *S* I write from my heart, thus I feel as though criticism is not necessary. But, if you wish, read what I have written and allow yourself to feel your own thoughts. *S* It's ok to say..."Damn, I know how he felt", or...."Wow, I know what he means"....*S* Another thing....Many of these works were written based on feelings towards people. I have written many pieces that deal with love, it's joys and some of it's sadnesses. I would appreciate the fact that these works are NOT to be copied in any form, any way. If you like something and want to use it somehow, drop me an email explaining. Most of these works are dedications, many to Snowy. Therefore, please do not use them. Thank you for understanding........OH! *L* One more thing, if you don't like what you see here, or do not enjoy romantic verse, feel free to leave. *S*

I have to put this funny poem in here. It was written for a great friend of mine ~Sharon~. When we first met, we talked about going fishing, of which we share a common interest. *S* Being the goof I am, I lazily struck out with my pen....check it out. *L*

~SHARON~ ! Go fishing with me

we'll catch fish I swear to thee!

Lend me thy worm and I shall bait your hook

see, only 1 crawler it took

Open the reel and cast over there

I shall not leave your worms I swear!

What's that? You have a bite!

jerk your rod with all your might

poor fishy got caught on your line

while his buddy stole the worm off mine

Soon you have 14 fish to my none

and you wonder why you're having fun?

I bait my hook one more time,

zero fish should be a crime

punishable by hug and kiss

my bobber sways, Hey look at this!

I set my hook and start to reel

a fishy ate my worm meal

I fight him to the shore

A smile on my face once more

But ALAS! He gets away

the worm in his belly to stay

You start to laugh and giggle

and make my insides jiggle

with happiness and glee,

~SHARON~ come fishing with me!

WHISPERING TO A SNOWANGEL

She lay there upon my chest,

her eyes closed, her body at rest.

Dreams dancing behind her eyes,

oblivious to my soft happy sighs.

"So precious", I say in gentle tone,

upon her smooth skin candlelight shone.

"An angel", I softly say to you

kindling fires in my heart anew.

"Sleep my love", I whisper with a kiss,

as she snuggles in a state of bliss.

My heart beats loudly and true,

when I whisper to her..."I love you".

UNTITLED THOUGHT

I often think as I look around at my humble surroundings. I think of just how little I truly have, yet feel so fortunate to have that. One could say that I am lucky to have survived the things I have done, the things I have seen, the things I have heard and thought of. One could also say that I am strong-hearted, to have beared the various pains which I have endured in life so far. So, I guess I am ready to face life again as before, to tackle the things which weigh me down and conquer them. And, to reap the benefits of projects accomplished. I feel great, as though a burden has been lifted off my shoulders, plucked by the mighty fingers of an unknown spirit who soars above me. Yes, someone to love would be grand, and I know she will come in due time I'm sure, I will be waiting patiently. When that moment happens, I will feel so complete.

UNKNOWN FACE

I thought of you today,

an unknown face in the crowd.

I wait patienty, knowing soon she will come.

I can see it happening in color,

though the place and date are black.

Confidence the true virtue

of knowing who I am....

She could fall in love with me.

I sense her close but reach out

to an apparitions hand
