Should have called it the poetry lounge so others can stop by and put their feelings into poems , just a thought .
 
A poem I wrote for my wife .



Remembering


As you stand there in your peaceful, graceful way .
As the wind blows through your hair , I am reminded
of the first day .

You came to me so sudden and so shy . When you
spoke to me , I had to ask myself why.

When you touched me on my face , I thought we were
once joined in another time, another place.

I could not believe that this was happening to me. Then
again with you it was was easy to understand you see.

You looked into my eyes and entered my heart and soul .
We became two into one , we became whole.

When you hold me tight I can feel the love you have
inside .You make me realize theres no need to hide ,
but to carry on with pride.

You give me the strength to go on , the power within .
You always show me the light , the way to begin.

So now when you touch me softly on the face , I can
remember back to that time and place , It was so many
years before , I was lost and nobody loved me , so I
imagined you opened the door .

The following 11 poems are my original "String-Cheese" poems.


This Eternal spark JL©

…into this earth…a new birth will enter in. This Eternal spark within…when does it begin… to never end? You could say…that all who we are, has come our way…through the Eternal way.

How can our weak flesh contain…in the midst of sorrow and pain…this Eternal gain? O God, keep our mileaged feet …free of hopeless defeat, always true to you….on your Eternal Street.

…hark…we ourselves are harbingers of those who this very day are born into the day. And feel your eternal spark, within…a lark…as we begin again.

We yearn for that Eternal Day…when…in the midst of a breath… we welcome death to come our way. You act… and we find our way to You… our spark Eternally intact!

Nice poems Joe, I'll come back later and read the others.
