If I had words and rhyme enough to show
That when on thirsty soil my roses grow,
In stinging, ice-wrapped cage my songbirds sing
A lilting tune that ushers in the Spring.
Then such a poem will, of course, prove true
That God has worked His miracles anew
Through friends so dear as life from life renewed,
Such sweetness, oh, such blessedness reviewed!
In mind and heart they’re two: Nenette, Andrew.

Though years of service each have taken toll
On weary shoulders, cares and burdens fall
But Love-lit eyes and smiles keep such as veiled
As fragrance from the heel-crushed violet.

Praise Him who made you both as beautiful
As summer rain.
Ignatius Hosiana May 2016
Luck's not when the *****
too start to lay and hens to crow
No,that's a miracle...
Luck's when all the eggs laid by the hens you adequately fed
hatch after incubation...
Take charge of your drive...
focus on the wheels...
Luck's a hitcher you give lifts
on your way to success
she tends to walk with miracle..!

she was nihilistic, pessimistic, narcissistic
but he had her believing
in the magic of early morning coffee,
the sound of the waves against the shore,
& second chances

Pink Lady
Blowing in the Breeze
Of a Southern Mansions Charm
Sorrows Glad Awakening
Freed from the Sun of Time

Surrounded by her Sisters
Fresh Flag Flying
A Gathering of Family
Home from the End

Shutting of a Car Door
Gravel Crunching
Not much to think about
Except Sun on Grass

We didn't know it would be like this
Sorrows Last Mystery Unfolded
But We knew
It Would Be Good

White Gloves
Standing At Attention
Children Playing
Nothing More to Say

Gratitude
And Forgiveness
Two Soldiers Witnessing
For the Life Beyond

Rainbow Possibility
Miracle of Love

We Love You
Prabhu Iyer Mar 2016
hopeless, helpless, confusing, gloomy have faith dark muggy muggy
evening of hopes, oh what an error, how could I, this again and again
same old same old, hopeless, helpless, chimera, mirage, don't trust
lost, defeated, distant, too far the journey, endless, keep walking
featureless, destiny, fate, tired, unclear, ebbing evening light, faceless;
let go, less hope, less help, less clear, less light, less known, only less
not no hope, no help, not clear, no light, unknown, indecipherable;
endless, hopeless, confusing, tired, can't walk, where to go, how, how
light is within, destiny, fate, chimera, mirage, nevertheless, endless
Experimental impressionist verse: 3 'lilies' are 3 thoughts of hope and light, which emerge in a wave-like mass of depressing thoughts ebbing and rising in succession

Emptiness is NOT nothing
One is empty of something
Like an empty cup
Is empty of tea in there
Still full of air
Likewise
I am full of cosmic miracles
But empty of self existence
Thank you mother nature
For lending me
A bit of earth
A bit of air
A bit of water
A bit of fire
And all that you share
With your borrowed elements
I came into existence
Infact I am just a manifestation
I cannot exist on my own
There my emptiness is born
I realize this truth
That's why I now know
Emptiness is NOT nothing
One is empty of something
This thought is not negative
Infact, it makes me humble
And pay due
Gratitude to you

We have here a group, no... a FAMILY
of poets who are the most beautiful,
compassionate people!


I can say without reservation that this is the best site I've ever been on. And the site is only as good as the poets on it. You have really stepped up to the plate and gone to bat for me and my family. By your good thoughts and prayers Miracles have been accomplished in my life.

Update on our little dog Cocoa. She is completely healed. This is nothing less than a miracle. We were able to use a credit card so she could see a veterinarian. But I believe God also answered our prayers and had given her healing. He is such a gracious and loving God that he cares for not only ourselves but the things we love also. Including our pets. I give him all the praise and glory! But I want to thank you all also. There is nothing no more powerful than corporate prayer. So if I seem like I tell you my whole life and ask for prayers I am not trying to burden you. I want to see the Miracles that are happening as they take place. You are powerful. Your prayers and thoughts are powerful. And I love you all from the bottom of my heart. You're so wonderfully talented in every way. People of such diverse nationalities and beliefs but with a single goal. To bring Beauty, inspiration, and understanding to those far away and near. I feel like you're my family. Everytime I press the little heart and read your writings I say a prayer. And I know there are others out there who do the same. I urge those who also experience miracles to write about them. It gives me Faith and Hope the things do change for the better in this world. And if there is a healing or a turnaround in your life it could be answered prayer. I know without reservation that my prayers touch the Throne of God. I don't say this to brag. I want to encourage you to pray and fast. It works. It TRULY DOES.

Hello Poetry ROCKS THE WORLD!!!
