Here are some words Mary had to say about Poetry:
Poetry, The Reasons Why
As a child with not many friends
Sitting outside my window..
Roses planted there
Found a place of peace in my heart
Free, accepted, and not downed
Writing and traveling through my
Ink… Exploring places feelings
emotions I never knew..
Became my world.. a world of love
Darkness…Forgiveness… and pure
Magic… There no-one can take
This away….
There I could write for the roses!!
Writing for you brings
Me…such as you are
Pure Joy
Thank you…each and everyone of
Your beautiful gifts of art!
~Mary~
Below are our selected poems for you to use in today’s challenge!
Please use only words from these poem for your write!
Seasons of Lands of Many Stays
By Mary
Going on A Ways
To A Land Of Many stays
The wind of different blows
As the winter land moans
The thrill of silent coldness
Lingers to a still
A release of snowy freedom
Frozen seasons will
Land of Winter is taken
To a destiny they remain
Arriving to a warm land
And that they call Spring
Flowers bloom readily
The dew of winters past
The shrill steady beauty
Colors in motion taking fast
Land of Spring is taken
To a place of beauty slumber
Arriving to a tempered land
This we call Summer
Thirst for water
Lakes shrieking “fill”
Sizzling over-cast
Basting seasons will
Land taken, lovely to some
Now Land has crisp beauty
It is Autumn
Land breathes life colors
As the leaves beckon to be free
The birds fly south
Long warmth their souls to be
A land of many changes
A land of different ways
I always will be amazed
By the
Seasons of Lands of many
Stays!

Shared This Ride from Dust Till Dawn
By Mary
Chasing thoughts
In a racing mind
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
Praying to my 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
Feeling a health defeat
The pain is getting stronger
thoughts racing fast
louder than the past
Knowledge, a disease not a faze
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 this soul
His will to be HIS LIFE!
I will live to protect him
To guide his mind of strife
be a needed shoulder
Hold him down in violent rage
Share the many tears
The visions, dreams paranoid stage!
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! 1995
Angel on my shoulder be
Oh so trying to beckon thee
lead thy soul one way right
lead-th thee next darkest plight
oh darkest fowl of foul can see
spare this willing seer plea
place your wings in flight
for seed in souls you see so bright
oh dark one of knowing keep
your eye on me
for thy heart is not mine
and the other shoulder has the key

Hey three of my most favorite people, Barbara, Cherie and Mary Margaret! So great to see you and to see Mary’s poems featured tonight! In one of them I found this!
OK Y’all she is all yours *smiling* the Cats kept acting up last night and well lets just say I had a very restless night……. Cheryl needs some beauty rest LMAO 😯
See you Tomorrow!!! :love: :love: :love:
Photobucket isn’t in a very cooperative mood tonight, but I won’t let that hold me up:
SWEET RELEASE
My heart awakens
to the flowers that bloom,
the secrets of their beauty
released as I slumber
and dream of flight,
life beckoning to me
in whispers warm and free —
dreaming to be,
my destiny.

WHISPERS…
I am hearing
whispers in the night,
I sense a spirit.
Dreams and visions,
were they of
the past?
Were they visions
of child spirits?
Dreams of the past?
The child soul
whispers to me
I sense his spirit.
These visions,
I dream,
of the past
and sense his
child soul
guide me
to knowledge,
and whispers….

I don’t know why my words aren’t showing on the picture so I guess I’ll just re-write it without the picture:
Secret winds blow
As dreams sleep
Colors breathe beauty
Roller coaster thoughts
Warm tears racing fast
Prayer a kindred to my soul
Feeling relief, I’m amazed
(c) Sheila A Berlier 07/27/11
She closes her eyes to stop the tears,
without you its life she fears.
All the pain your putting her through,
she can’t face life living without you.
Cutting her arms and hoping to die,
trying to forget when you said goodbye.
Never thinking it would end like this,
never forgetting the first time u kissed.
She never thought her love would grow,
trying to cover it so u wouldn’t no.
Thinking of memories inside her head,
replaying them words that you once said.
Wishing you loved her, that it was her again,
eager to cut through that one vein.
Tears rolling down her face as the
blood begins to appear as the pain begins to take place.
She knows that she cant have you,
she knows that you’ve moved on,
but how can she still live,
when she knows that you’re the one.
She thinks of you, the good times too and hopes you’ll understand.
Her final breath, the sound of the knife all because you left her life
