    veggie pie and baguette sounds awesome, and who hates bread? It is my most favorite food


    Lets think of some more tried and true sayings......
    I say a horse a piece to my kids and they look at me weird :D


    Yeah I couldn't believe it when he said he didn't want my fresh bread! - I thought I was doing him a good turn! Was funny but aggravating also

    whilst I clung to oceans

    You loved black
    Whilst I clung to oceans
    You were in alive
    Whilst I was living once, garden
    We were barely standing on a bridge
    Whilst the world collapsed around us
    Crumbled; everything that wasn’t nailed down
    Was spinning up to hit us in the face
    But we had contact
    We had solid ground (& earthed)
    And we had touch

    Now it’s me that treasures black
    Whilst you just discover faithful
    It is to me to update you
    When you used to hardly miss a trick

    There’s something
    About a guide
    Something about communication
    Something about not collapsing
    (too young people)
    Under the heaviness
    Of our circumstances
    I really wish I’d never had to grow up like that.....
    There’s something about a mentor
    A lot about a voice
    And for me isolation
    And for you

    We really could have drowned you know

    I have a (an empty so far..but I have a few things I have to put in)
    anyway...a page on my BLOG entitled
    "Voices of The Faithful"
    It is space for poetry, prose, short stories, musings, whatnot, from my friends, friends like you.

    If you would like to contribute, or want me to add anything that's on these pages and others, please just let me know and I'd be more than happy to share!

    Then, if you'd like, you can add a link to your stuff or to the blog, whatever you want, into your signature, or whatever, or not, depending upon how you feel about it.

    I know some of you have blogs already where you have an outlet for your stuff, but if you don't, or even if you do, and you want to share it further, I would absolutely LOVE to post your stuff on my blog as well.

    The things I read here have so much emotion, so much feeling, and so much truth, that I can't imagine them being left here where only we will see them and feel them.

    Just a thought
    Peace,
    jo

    If you want to check it out first, the blog address is: http://johannapearl.weblog.com/

    thanks for reading! :D
    peace,

    Silence

    Darkness, my comfort
    I speak here again
    in a dream I saw it all
    it has grown
    and fills my thought

    In Silence.

    I moved across the grass alone
    through the trees and dappled sun.
    I turned my face to feel the warmth
    closed my eyes from the light
    to bring the darkness

    And feel Silence.

    In the darkness is where I saw
    the tears of many not alone
    eyes open but not seeing
    arms reaching but not embracing
    words written never spoken

    Lost without Silence.


    "'Here can you not see?'
    This Silence grows in side of me
    take my darkness and you will know
    feel my arms to hold you dear
    see my words and hear the call

    It is here in Silence.

    And you have come but not to pray
    though the answer may be there
    you will find it in the darkness
    you will find it in a dream

    Of Silence.

    Wow, beautiful Pandora, amazing. A poem worthy of teal script - making me feel like rolling turf, lying on my back and gulping fresh air

    The Wasp

    They must have wanted the sugar in my coffee,
    By their nature wasps seem to skim, zip, hover, buzz, attack
    By their nature they seem just plain nasty

    Usually I’m good,
    I can tolerate
    Today though I just wanted to be left in peace

    So I flayed and flayed
    To no effect
    They only came back harsher, sharper

    Eventually I just sat still,
    and observed what they wanted,
    what they were seeking

    So I sat, and was still
    Sat back and watched
    I saw them spiral & dive, spiral and dive
    To very little effect

    In the end they simply jumped away and vanished.
    Disinterested

    And I was left with my peace
    And my coffee

    I like this and find what you say so true
    We put human emotion to bugs thinking they are out to get us
    when they are about their own business,
    sometimes simply no business.

    Sad...I like it

    I wanted to write something to the effect.....
    As the ocean works to wash away l o v e in the sand,
    life works to wash away the love we own in our hearts.
    It only needs to be written again,
    and again.

    Yeah, it looks better! I often like to observe animals, and write a little something about them, oftentimes there can be a deeper lesson there too. In this 'wasp' case I see something about negative, destructive thoughts as well.

    I saw a hedgehog (do they call them that in USA?) recently at night and it ran away from me up the path really fast, but stayed in sight, so I followed along behind trying to keep a safe distance, but he obviously could hear me, so at a certain point he just stopped dead and curled up into a spiky ball. I remember thinking 'good defence, not sure it is that much use in the modern age tho!!' Was going to write something about it, but went to bed instead!

    Yes we call them Hedgehogs but I don't think we have Hedgehogs, I don't think they aren't native to North America. See them at the zoos only maybe.
    Perhaps you will still honor him with a cute little story some day. Tuck it away for a rainy day writing :D The little guy there on youtube is really cute

    Show and tell assignment ;)

    From our days in school this was a favorite, bringing an object to class and telling why it is a treasure.
    Choose a favorite object, write a short story or poem that tells us why it is special to you. You'll need lots of description, words of imagery to "show" us your object and why it is important to you.

    Could be fun :D
