Rain
Miriam May 2020
Watch me hammer down at the ground
Watch me batter and pound
Watch me turn the world into mini streams
Watch me fall like tiny rods of beams
Watch me turn the ground into a quagmire
Watch me rise the water level higher and higher
An old poem i wrote about rain

Beyond the rain
Miriam Apr 2020
Your tears ran down your face
Like water trickles down glass
My heart pours out for you
Like an overflowing brook
I will be your umbrella
I’ll shelter your from life’s rain
Now I’ve got you I’m not letting go
You steer,I’ll row .
This poem uses  water to describe someones love for another

LOVE
Miriam Apr 2020
Love abundantly
Overflowing to everyone
Victoriously spread me
Even if others don’t show it

Sunset -Sunrise
Miriam Apr 2020
The golden orb is setting
The day is put to bed
But the night still roars loud to us
It’s still inside our heads

The stars come out shining
Dancing in the moonlight
A shimmering flickering glimpse
Of a universe beyond our sight

The first light rises
The world rises too
Freshness embraces,kissing the air
And Fields lie sprinkled with dew

A world of new beginnings

God is in control
Miriam Apr 2020
When the world has fallen apart
And your not sure what the future holds
When you don’t know what to do
And your unsure if you’ll make it through
When your stumbling in the dark
With no fire,no spark —

Focus on God,the saviour of your soul
He will deliver you, he’ll call you his own
He’s our refuge our shelter
His ways never faulter
When everything around is falling
He’ll set you us upon sure ground
The worries of the world melt away
Become so small-
In the light of His Glory and Power
Just remember through it all
God is in control
Bigger than our problems-
He’s already overcome the world

Do you know
Miriam Apr 2020
Do you know?
Does it show?
That it's Killing me to let you go

Please don't leave
No apologies
Can't you see me down on my knees?

I Need you know
Just turn around
I was lost but you made me found

Cant you see
Your a piece of me
Life without you is incomplete

together we are strong
Miriam Mar 2020
It’s hard to hear about the heartache of the World,
When we here are just getting on with our lives,
The things we take for granted,
Are so big in other people’s eyes.
Right now while we are sleeping,others might be suffering,calling out for help.

So let’s just stop a minute and think about how lucky we are
And think about how much we have compared to those in places afar..
This isn’t a poem of woe,but together we can show,
The ones that are suffering,just how far love can go.
So join with me and be together let’s help the needy...
Because together we are strong!
Let’s come together and help those that’s need it

Light
Miriam Feb 2020
Light,the heartbeat of the city
A thousand lights to show the way
An essence that surrounds our everyday
Where would we be without light?
An undertow,to the rhythm of life
What would happen if it all went dark?
No more spark,everything falls apart
No more trail,no more spark
Light,we take it for granted
But would we survive in the dark
The worlds already dark enough.

I wrote this poem after a drive through the city and it occurred to me how much lights there are in the city and how much our lives  we rely on light and energy

Fire
Miriam Feb 2020
You have a fire within you,
It’s burning  up inside
You can achieve anything
Don’t let your dreams hide
You can rise up again
When people stamp you out
Just believe in yourself
That’s what it’s all about

Your smile
Miriam Feb 2020
Your smile is like the morning sun,
Bringing beauty and warmth to the world.
Your eyes are like shining stars,
Lighting up the dark sky at night.
Your laughter is like a new spring day,
Refreshing the air with one touch.
Your lips are like red,summer cherries,
Sweet and soothing to the taste.
Miriam Hawley
