Part Of Me...My Poetry

[WolfyOne]

It's been almost 25 years and I still miss him every day

My Father's Love

September is a hard month for me
Visions of my father is all I see
Missing him more than words can say
One more day I wish he could stay
In my heart forever there
Many times I took his dare
Only to get the hand of shame
Because I knew I was to blame
Those life lessons I learned well
Long before my head could swell
Nothing ever got past him
For me it was either sink or swim
The kid I was learned to respect
The adult I am can recollect
Happy, sappy, good or bad
My father's love was ironclad

The Wish

I wish she saw me as more than a friend
The one with always an ear to lend
For years I've admired her from afar
She truly is a shining star

I wish that I could talk like I dance
I'd put her in a magical trance
Tell her how I've always felt
Perhaps my words would make her melt

I wish that I was suave and cool
With women I can be quite a fool
Verbal words I just can't find
I'm usually the one left behind

To be her friend has always been fine
Never will I try to cross that line
Should she ever see me in another light
My heart would shine big and bright

The Growing Up Years

I was a runner not a player
I was a quitter not a stayer
Never understood my youthful years
And I caused a lot of tears
My heart never meant to hurt a soul
It was my head I couldn't control
Took many years for me to see
What was broke and set it free
In my head, I'd open a gate
Telling myself, it's not too late
How could I just settle in
Put all my feelings in one bin
Age has made me realize
In my youth, I was far from wise

Well, I actually have mine published on allpoetry.com. And I normally write a lot of poems, but as of late I have had a huge case of writer's block. But if I get around to doing so again, I'd be glad to share

I've had some published in a book years ago with other poets, but it didn't put cash in my pocket, just the publishers of the book. All I got was praise and a certificate.

I had writers block for about a year and a half, if you look at the dates on my last few poems before I started writing again. Sometimes, it just takes the right muse to come back into your life or a new muse to enter it.

That's pretty much how it is for me. Like I have had my stuff out there, and I still do. But, I never got money either, just glorified praise for my talent. That and other reasons is why I stopped writing for a while. I have tried to write some here lately, but I guess I just haven't found the right setting. But when I do, I'll be happy to share
