Recaptured
Long ago you told me we're through Your heart recaptured by an old view Still your eyes speak to me Not what you say but what I see Your need to follow your heart understood I wouldn't try to change it if I could I'll take each day and cherish our time Knowing any minute it could stop on a dime Losing you not to another soul Hoping recaptured makes you whole I'll not regret a moment with you Having you in my life was a gift come true |
This is an old one I thought I'd share from 2006
Make It Real Shed that skin you hide Open up, show your pride Walk out into the light Everything will be all right Grab hold of the old Forget what you were told Reach out for today Wash the rest away Believe in what you feel It has to be real Let go of the pain It brings thunder and rain Push away your fear Stand up and cheer Be who you are A bright shining star |

Let It Ride Sometimes when depression sets in I try hard not let it win It takes from me a happy day Keeps everyone I care about away There are those days when I could curse That's when I know it's at its worse I have to let it ride the tide Or it takes away from my pride Asking others to forgive The way it makes me sometimes live Understand I'm not really cruel Don't mean to treat anyone like a fool Just be a friend and take my hand On those days when I can't stand Help me make it over the heap Long before I sink to deep |
Reunion Number One Butch Femme Planet reunion number one Bonding dancing just having fun Memories being made to last Even if the days go by fast Pictures worth their weight in gold So many stories waiting to unfold Online friends face to face All of us in one awesome place What a way to get to know Some of the things we never show Cabaret night the talent comes out While the rest of us whistle and shout In the ballroom looking grand That's the night to shake many a hand Dancing prancing all around Watching femmes as they astound Raffle tickets being sold For every gift as we've been told Spend your dollars and take a chance You'll want to once you get a glance Together at brunch means it's coming to an end Happiness from all that were able to attend Karaoke for those that stick around Get up and sing no matter how you sound One last chance for you to be bold Bring home stories to forever hold |
I am really enjoying reading your poetry! Keep writing Wolfy :praying:

Starry nights of midnight blue that seek a lovers hold of true is she there or far away. I turn to the side of my bed and there she lay as I wrap my arms around her and shower her with my love there could be no doubt of ever lasting love

Lady Blue
I know a lady that is quite blue Right now she hasn't a clue Why the love isn't as strong Or what has even gone wrong Why the words don't come out Does he still love her without a doubt What happened to the honeymoon day Wrapped in each other is where they'd stay Days go by without so much as a kiss On his part he's been way to remiss A mini vacation may help thes two Perhaps they'll find that long lost view Remembering how it used to be When each other was all they'd see Getting back what they once had Before it gets more than just bad |

This is an exquisite piece.... absolutely fabulous! a lovely visual of faith and hope... I loved it. |
In The Future
Wondering why they never stay Seems I always push them away Closeness is hard for me to share Saying it now just to be fair Understand it's no one's fault And shouldn't bring anything to a halt Any future relationship needs to know What it is I don't always show Some of my feelings I wear on my sleeve But there are others I silently grieve Love would never be untrue My face will show it in full view All I ask is that you take Good bad and ugly so I don't break Future hope and dreams I hold For the one who's heart is sold On what it is I have to give From inside in order to live |
Written Words Eloquently some say I write There are times I do it for spite Those written words meant just for me Those written words no one else will see My tongue can be sharp even in ink What I write makes one think Holding back for only so long Some might say it's very wrong If I hurt and need to vent Written words are better sent Whether for you or for me Those written words set me free Take my advice and always write Putting your words into the light Helps a lot to release the stress And it won't lead to a great big mess |
My Beauty Cutie She is quite a beauty And oh what a cutie The look on her face When her heart starts to race Certainly makes me smile For more than a while Softly she nudges me As she sends out her plea I've been very good today Is it possible we could play How could I say no After what she did show Her big pretty eyes Gets me full of sighs Never asks for much And likes a gentle touch Calms me when I'm sad Or feeling really bad She's my little ball of fur A comfort to me for sure |
Perfect Love
Once I had a perfect love Given to me from the powers above Breathless as love hit me hard Somewhere though I played the wrong card Penpals again as years have past Maybe just friendship is meant to last Life goes on as we've all been told But for years this woman had quite a hold Perhaps back then I couldn't let go And for such a long time it would always show There were times I'd sit and wonder What if I didn't make that ultimate blunder Everything in life happens for a reason She was to be in mine for only a season Perfect love was only in my mind I believe I'm still waiting for my one of a kind |

Thanks Ms E, I think lately I've been in a good place and able to write about good instead of sad or bad Finding that inspiration again and being able to write feels good to me |
Ever have a day when you sit and think about what someone said to you long ago.
You find for some reason, today is a good day to reflect on the those words you pushed aside. Well, today I was having one of those days and decided to write about it. Take Another Look Once I was told I read like a book And I should take another look Physical similarities of a lover lost Trying to recapture her at what cost Was that how the attraction did start Is that the reason she tugged at my heart It was always I that couldn't give my all An old lovers image was my brick wall Was comfort what it was all about Do I earn the reputation of a lout Lesson learned from a lover past The shadow of doubt had been cast Learning still I must always listen If I want a relationship to glisten |
Mama Kitty
Rescued from the street The first time I saw her upbeat Outside afraid to trust In time I knew she must Missing teeth from abuse I didn't want to let her loose A family she did find Loving gentle and kind Something she never knew Into a princess she grew Never tried to run away In the house she wanted to stay Her few years with me I was all she could see She was sick before I was aware Her little eyes became a blank stare Each relapse she did fight This last time she saw her light Finally an ending in sight As her little body let her soul take flight RIP Mama Kitty 10/24/2010 you gave so much and asked for so little |
A Life
Times are changing I am rearranging A life with a weathered past Some things weren't meant to last Moving forward with no set plan Going to give it all I can New state new job new start Try again to open my heart See in me what I know is there A human being that can truly care Old baggage I must sort out This I know without a doubt Keep the good and toss the bad Needing desparately to stop feeling sad Looking to find that happy place The one that's written on a face I know not what the future may hold Or even the story that it will unfold Taking each day with sincere gratitude Moving ahead with renewed attitude |
Forever Set
Every time I think of you I remember beauty shinning through The confidence in your walk The drawl when you would talk The smile beamed on your face The way it felt with each embrace Memories vividly etched in forever Thoughts I've never tried to sever Good times better than the bad The day you left me very sad Many years of time gone by Keeping in touch we often try The kids are grown you're back in school I always knew you were no fool My wish for you is always the best Like finding gold in a treasure chest Thankful years ago you touched my soul It helped to fill a gaping hole Never believed I could give my heart Until you showed me where to start So many things I'll not forget In my mind forever set |
Live To Give, Give To Live
We never know how long we'll live Or what it is we're supposed to give How fortunate some of us are To be able to say we made it this far Those fallen heroes from our past Things they taught us meant to last Unknown are they to the public eye But when we lost them how we did cry Molding us for a future bright Hoping we would see the light Some of us fell off that track Some of us managed to get it back It's up to us to pass that torch To the little kid sitting on the porch So when we ask what should we give Teach the next generation how to live This circle of life must always flow Because what we reap depends how we sow Don't take for granted your time on earth Leave your mark and show them what you're worth |
Years And Miles
When I think of you I come alive Some of those thoughts help me survive Another time another place as I go back Wondering how long I'll walk that track Years and miles the distance has grown But our two hearts have always known About those words we no longer speak Because neither of us want to be caught weak Communication we can share Anything else we don't dare Mental maps drawn long ago In my mind sometimes they show Thankful for the memories I hold A lost love story that did unfold I'll take the happy with the sad For whatever time we once had |
Once Upon A Time
Come with me on a magical ride Where once upon a time I did reside Younger days when I was carefree When in my heart no one held the key Going places meant driving away Many knew I would never stay Until the day she entered my life For the very first time I wanted a wife I still didn't know how to give my heart But with what I felt it was a good start Obstacles of women past Wouldn't make this relationship last Too many times she cried in vain For I had caused her so much pain Not able to see what she didn't show Was not helping our relationship grow The day she left she took with her The emotions inside me that did stir What I learned in the end Is to think about the message I send I make mistakes and I will not lie There have been others I really try Should I ever feel what I did back then I'd be thinking about a wife all over again |
Here's one I wrote in 2006, thought I'd toss it out here, seemed appropriate
~~~~~~ Before When ~~~~~~ Taking this moment before it passes away Wanting to know it before it becomes yesterday Before all the tears And all the fears When peaceful happy brought a smile One that lasted over many a mile When laughter was shared by two And beauty was still brand new Before innocence was lost And heartache was the cost Wondering where did it go And can it ever come back to show Will yesterday become a stat Is tomorrow also gone like that When will a future I see Be ready for more than me |
A conversation today finally broke me out of the writers block I've had
Paid In Emotion I know this woman online Whom I think is truly devine Her thoughts on love misplaced From heartache she has faced She thinks it's not for her Those emotions she won't stir Right now she shares her space With fur babies she can embrace Will it always be enough I think we need other stuff Imagine no love at all Perhaps the world would stall Human touch can do a lot Remind us loves not forgot Conversations two can share Part of showing how we care Because in past we've been burned Are lessons that we've learned Mistakes already made Was the price we paid Relationships in any form With work can weather a storm If something is meant to be It'll be there for you to see You can try and close your heart But it tells you when it wants to start Love has a funny way of creeping inside No matter by what rules we abide |
As I started to reread some of my old poetry, this one jumped out at me......
.....made me smile and remember that not everything from days gone by was bad Feeling Her Inside her milky white thigh I rub and she starts to sigh Knowing where this will go Everything inside us will show Moving up to kiss her Emotions start to stir Our tongues meet As they greet I slowly suck With any luck She'll be wet I can bet Reaching down to touch Want it very much Slide a finger in I see her grin Wet beyond belief What a relief My mouth moves below Her juices overflow My tongue does a dance She is in a trance About to explode Let loose her load I hear her scream Then I see her gleam The afterglow on her face Our slow sweet embrace |
Someday this will happen, when the right one comes along
Take My Hand Come journey through life with me I don't have much but my heart can see All the riches money can't buy Infectious laughter can get you high Loving arms that won't let go Feelings for you that will always show Reaching out to pull you in Not a race I have to win Given freely is my love With the help of God above All that's wanted is yet to come Getting to know you has been awesome Travel the road that's right for you It doesn't matter what others view Take my hand if I'm the one Because when it's all said and done I'll still be there by your side Looking at you with respect and pride I'll be the one loving you deep You'll be the one making my heart leap |
Guardian Angel
Guardian angel took my hand All alone I no longer stand Whenever I feel my world crash in My guardian angel knows where to begin Guardian angel helped me breathe There were others watching me seethe Helped me through what hurt me most My guardian angel wouldn't let me roast Guarian angel watches from afar Knows sometimes I'll wish on a star Not all wishes will come true My guardian angel helps me through Guardian angel thanks for coming my way A friendship built always to stay No one else has helped me as much My guardian angel we'll always stay in touch |
Old Friends
Every time you cross my mind A silly smile is what I find Memory of a childhood day When life was simple and we'd play How I miss the kids we were All the commotion we would stir Never knowing we'd drift apart Brand new life and a brand new start Finding our friendship from years of past This time around it won't go fast The growing up has already been done Let's go outside and have some fun Walk and talk, fill in the blanks Still alive we give our thanks Those wild years we never shared Invincible us we never cared Wiser with age than in our youth Tell our stories, tell our truth |
I put this in 9 words, but also wanted to add it to my thread
It's for someone I know coming into her own Hopefully her journey takes her where she needs to be __________________________________________________ ___ Chance, Reality, Risk, Naturally, Solo, Finding, Fire, Girl, Gallery __________________________________________________ ___ Her First You there woman taking a risk A married woman tsk tsk tsk Sidelines watching a flame that burns Fire cracking as she turns Gallery of pictures play in your head Kissing her softly will lead to that bed Naturally you take that chance Beautiful memories of the last dance Reality says you won't get the girl Your thoughts keep saying lets give it a twirl Finding emotions never felt before Knowing in the end what is in store That solo flight is hard to swallow In the pit of your stomach that feeling of hollow First woman love is always sweet The next one after you may find complete |
Until The End
Is friendship what we both see Will our hearts ever be set free Slowly again we build that trust For me it certainly is a must Trust is something to be earned Last time around I really felt burned Apology accepted and past put away Lessons learned I hope they stay Heart breaking as I understand It didn't go as you planned Nothing gained some feelings lost At least it wasn't at a great cost Life as we know it will move ahead No other words about it have to be said I'm always here to lend an ear If you want to follow I can steer No one has to pick up their pace We have plenty of time and this isn't a race I'm the friend until the end Unless another message is what you send |
Beyond My Pen
My words on paper say it all Face to face I often stall I wish the two would sometime meet At times I feel complete defeat On the phone more of the same Pen and paper my claim to fame I'm not suave smooth or cool At times it makes me one big fool Communication doesn't always come Not as easy as it does for some To ride off someday with the girl Would make this old heart swirl I've played the part like a movie in my head Only in my mind I'm the loser instead Oh how I wish my mouth was a pen I'd tell the girl she was a ten I'd tell her what I really feel But with my pen is how I deal Some day my pen and the girl might meet Perhaps that day I'll find complete For the girl that looks beyond written word Past my pen I can be heard I may not say what one wants to hear But I'd be there for her year after year |
~~Within My Heart~~
Time and time agian you come into my mind Like that long lost treasure I'm waiting to find Ten years now and you don't go away In my head and heart you seem to stay A connection we both know has never changed Over the years it has been rearranged Hard as it is when we finally connect Each other it seems we want to protect My deepest love is what you were Emotional ride is what we did stir Toxic fumes we tried to hide As we created one hell of a ride To this day I feel our hurt All the pain from all the dirt I'd like to thank you for the dance The fact you gave me another chance I've grown a lot since we first met Your words back then I didn't get My love for you was oh so strong Just didn't know then where I belong Simple life now is what I lead There's not too much I really need Making peace today within my heart I thought with you is where I should start |
Those Childhood Days
Where did they go, those childhood days The ones I miss in so many ways When life was simple and we had fun Then sleep would come and day was done High school my friends was such a blast We made memories meant to last All of us, we drifted away No more time for us to play As young adults we had so much to prove Make our niche and find our groove We really thought we could have it all Take on the world and never stall As we age, our parents we become Words we use were thought once dumb Lessons we never wanted to learn Yet they stayed with us so we could return To the next generation the wisdom we'd burned Finally realizing the cornerstone we turned |
I wrote one for last years reunion, so I thought I'd give it another whirl this year.
Funny, I just looked back at the first one I wrote because I couldn't remember and it seems I happened on familiar words while writing this one, too. I seem to be a creature of habit, lol. For those that can't be there this year, truly plan ahead for next year, you will not regret it at all...............honest. Reunion Number 2 Reunion Number 2 will soon be here All you virgins put away your fear Just relax and have some fun Tears will flow when it's almost done Friendships made for years to come Love connections even for some An experience like none before Get excited about what's in store Dancing, prancing in leaps and bounds The DJ spinning many different sounds After the party parties can be found Tradition says they will astound Once you've been to one you'll be back You'll find the BFP Reunion will never lack See an old friend and make a new The hotel in Little Rock has a great view If indeed you cannot come Next years reunion will be just as fun |
I wiped away the dust and took down the cobwebs
After all, I haven't been here in months So, it's safe to enter again :) Not Always Written In Ink For many years I've traveled this road Sometimes carrying a heavy load Last door closing opened my eyes Communicating more to my surprise My words are often written in ink So I can always go back and rethink Oral words at times without thought Said in anger before they're caught Is not a place I like to go A part of me I need not show Learning to think before I spew Makes for a much nicer view Next time around I should be ready To give my all and be rock steady Opening up will be in place Sitting to talk face to face Not always depending on written word Knowing when my voice needs to be heard Relationships should not be rough With open communication to talk about stuff |
I wished my words would flow like they once did
Perhaps one day they will I'm just glad for the days when something inside me says it's time Get out the pen and paper, let it flow Today happens to be one of those days Heart Beats My heart beats for someone Another day, another sun She's out there somewhere The one who will always care My heart beats for life Not one filled with strife Ready to open that door Time for me to explore My heart beats for my friends With positive energy it sends As I pray for each of you Find the strength to make it through My heart beats for unity Enough to fill every community Spread the word for peace to follow Never again to feel hollow My heart beats for that better day When that special someone comes my way The one who knows they'll never leave Who gets me and will not deceive My heart beats for me alone Continues to show me how much I've grown Opening up to let others in Cautiously knowing how long it's been |
For those not on my FB, I'm going to re-post this poem I wrote tonight and posted there.
This one is for my brother as the hospital makes him as comfy as he can be My heart is heavy tonight Loving Peter Reality is a funny thing Sadness is what it can bring Truth you don't want to hear Knowing is your greatest fear Childhood thoughts passing through In my mind it's a beautiful view Already missing the boy you were Emotional journey inside me does stir The loving father you turned out to be The person your girls won't grow to see An empty feeling hard to explain Writing words to keep sane Oh how I wish life was always fair But our plates never hold more than we can bare My love for you will always be Whether here on earth or heaven, you'll see Be strong my brother in your passing day God will hold you and show you the way Take comfort in knowing you won't be alone No longer afraid of what is unknown |
Memories
Life more precious than we realize Yet some of us can only idealize Enjoying only what money can buy Material things are in constant supply Envisioning long ago days of past Playing outside hoping sunlight will last Dinner at a table and we can all talk About how the day went and an evening walk Sitting on a porch with ice cream on a stick From the ice cream man as parents let us pick Catching fireflies and letting them go After showing our hands aglow Fast forwarding to children of today Don't know what's missed by staying in to play Adventures they will never share Or even experiencing a double dog dare As I age those memories appear If only in my mind as I hold them dear The next generation will tell their own To those that follow about how they've grown |
I think this will be my last Reunion poem because no matter how hard I try, I can't do better than the very first one I wrote.
Reunion Number 3 Reunion Number 3 just days away The Peabody a great place to stay Incredible bonding we all will share Feelings showing you'll know we care This reunion the biggest one yet Will you be ready able and set For all emotions from happy to sad Picture perfect memories to be had How many virgins will make a splash Who'll be running a 50 yard dash As we jump from room to room Cameras appear with a zoom Capturing each beautiful smile Along with every clothing style For all the happy we will bring And all the drinks we may ka-ching Eventually it all must end Happy messages we all will send The farewell brunch is often hard With all the tears our vision marred Until next year we must refrain Reunion everything we must retain |
