Well...I'm kind of tuckered right now, but I will sleep on it.

Okedoke, good night! But in the mean time, I'll give it a shot.

Hope, invisible and unstable.
Lack of faith, lack of trust
Brings hope to the table.
Hope, that maybe things will work out
Never knowing always hoping
Fills minds with pure doubt
Deliverance and joy is absent in hope
Always thinking on the future
And having to cope.
Hope, nothing more nothing less
Than a whisp in the wind.
So forget hope for now
you have life to attend.
Faith requires choice
Not worry or doubt
It lets you live life to it's fullest
It's the only way out.
Trusting in something bigger than you
To hold you above the crap you go through.
You're no longer hoping
but living in peace
after all it NOT up to you
to make your life complete.

thats was beauiful man. i think i got one i want to share.

This is the time for me
The time for me to see
The time for me to be all i can be
The time for me to be me

The time the passes me
fast and swift
like an ocean breeze that splashes me with its mist.

This is the time for me
The time for me do what i dream
The time to find, the time to see

Let time pass through me as fast as it wants
but time cannot stop me for doing what i want.

Thanks for sharing KC.....

I think I'll try to chew one up and spit it out....

There are those that moan,
and those that gripe.
They're of the opinion,
they've not been done right.

If they stopped making their noise,
they'd realize that life is a choice.
Then in peace they could live,
because there's more joy in the ability to give.

Hope is a light sprite,
With love it keeps the soul aloft.
It can flee through a window left open,
Like a feathered friend.
As long as love resides,
the soul remains open...
serving half a self,
as love calls out for the return of hope.

I like all the poems. . . it's cool to see how "Hope" affects each of us differently. And we have poetic proof! lol Great poems guys!

There once was a man named JR,
Whose wagon WAS hitched to a star,
His words are so kind,
He's good for the mind,
And cheers people up from afar.

You make me blush . . .

lol. How do you react to something like that!? Umm . . . thank you!?

There once was a woman named Jill
Who overcame mountain and hill
She's incredibly kind
And has talent sublime
And it shows through her internet quill.

You are awesome! I'm happy to put that into words.

There was this strange number you see,
But it's not reappearing for me,
Looks like Jim's got a thing,
An idea took wing,
I can't wait to see "23".

Jump the wall,
Go ahead...
and all you will get
Is a nip,
From the wily dog.
You're caught in the net...
So you wiggle and beg
to be free once again
And your angel
puts wily dog
back in the pen.

Standing ovation
Cheering for fate
Irony's won
And destiny's late.
Fearing to fall
Jumping nonetheless
Succumbing to passion
A life without stress.

Oh asparagus
Why hast thou forsaken me
For years I've eaten you
only to be fulfilled by your less than savory savour
Oh asparagus leave me now in peace as you die alone.
