Please select your 25 words from the
following poem which Mary has so generously
shared with us . . . .
SHARED THIS RIDE FROM DUSK TIL DAWN
Chasing many thoughts
In a racing mind
Having unique sensations
Since a child I find
People passing secrets
Then passing looks my way
Hearing whispers speak
Happenings came their way
They were unknown enemies
Out to steal my soul
Spirits directed their mind
I was Ostracized
Was their control
Dreams, a path, a entrance
At night at bed I sleep
Awaken many times
Spirits, threatening my visions keep
Keeping my soul alive
To keep this body shell
I would pray to my Lord God
And send them to their hell
Through life I fight these spirits
In my outer and in my sleep
Now I am getting older
I am getting weak
The pain is getting stronger
My thoughts race so fast
They speak constant
More louder than the past
Knowledge, of my disease, I know of today
Gives me sense of relief
Of all of the torrid days
Now.. a child kindred to my soul
Shares this Ride more out of control
I will not dismiss my soul
His will to be HIS LIFE!
I will live to protect him
To guide his mind of strife
To be that needed shoulder
Hold him down in violent rage
Share the many tears
The voices, dreams paranoid stage!
To ride our mind-made roller-coaster
Pray we both hold on!!
Remember The War is the Lords
Say our prayer
from
Dusk till Dawn!
Mary Margaret! 1993
The 25 words selected may be used
more than once and the tenses
and forms may be changed.
So there is no limit
on the length of your poem.
The only requirement is that we have fun.
Looking forward to what is shared tonight and throughout tomorrow.
And thanks again to Mary Margaret
for sharing her creativity
and her friendship
with us.

AWAKENINGS
Chasing childhood secrets
and visions passing by,
whispered dreams
and rollercoaster rides,
from dawn til dusk
down life’s way
and along her paths,
my heart and soul
awakened to life
as it passes by.
(c) barbara kausteklis 6-25-13
Awaken by voices of tears
visions of spirits passing my way
days my thoughts race past
I was a child
in my whispers of dreams…

MY SOUL ~
The voices of spirits
are my constant companions
from dusk till dawn..
I suffer in a torrid hell
of evil happenings
My Lord God
I pray thee deliver me
Keep my soul !
For my mind is at war
in a violent rage
against it’s self..
And “He” whispers
evil secrets
to guide me to his will
My body is weak
But I shall hold on
My Lord God
I pray thee
Keep my soul !
For I am your child
Now and evermore
J.J.
My life
on a roller coast
thoughts getting stronger
in my mind
I pray
as the dreams
awaken my sleep
in their control
my soul…
Cherie c2013
well…..I know I am not in school right now….but my sleep clock is still ticking as if I am…hehehe…..I think it is my age….shhhh…don’t tell…..heheheheh
See you all in the morning!!!!!!!!
FRIENDSHIP
Racing passing thoughts
chasing secret sensations,
awaken an entrance
to my visions,
keeping my soul alive.
To kindred spirits
I would share relief,
and hold on.

Words gleaned and recomposed from Mary Margaret’s 1993 poem “Shared This Ride From Dusk Till Dawn.”
SPIRIT GHOST
*_*
Dreams paranoid
Many tears
Violent rage
Mind of strife
Dismiss my soul
Out of control
Torrid days
Race so fast
Getting stronger
I fight these spirits
To their hell
Many times
My visions keep
Keeping my soul alive
*_*

WHISPERINGS
Life speaking in ways
unknown until now,
dreams whisper
through the night
till dawn awakens day,
my soul,
my spirit
stronger now,
in control of today
and down life’s path.

Another write on the passage Journey
when I see
the way it was
running from harm
and just because
a heart- beat
away from tragady
one tear-drop could wash
all fears free

In a racing mindHaving unique sensationsSince a child I findPeople passing secretsThen passing looks my wayHearing whispers speakHappenings came their wayThey were unknown enemiesOut to steal my soulSpirits directed their mind..You gave me wings and I chose to soar A new life of immortal ways I left the past and here I stay Eternal life of death and darkness In our world of lust struck madness A life of no rules to follow I have no heart, no more sorrow I love you now and always will You stole my heart and left to kill… The Kiss of a vampire, soft and sweet The perfect moment of when lips meet..
Love..
Love is the word
True… not still
Love is the liquid
For the hearts to be filled
MM-78
