    Headspray

    it happened late at night
    with a blink of an eye
    his life turned upside down
    if this is all there was for him
    he no longer wanted “it” at all
    I guess that’s what made
    his head spray
    on the wall….
    they found him alone
    not a written word to be found
    would it have helped them anyway?
    so in the blink of an eye
    an extinguished flame
    left nothing but a smoking hole
    that made his head spray,…

    wow that reminds me of a old friend that lived in Lakeside,his Bro found him.
    very moving Wolf.

    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

    a treasure
    given
    with
    love
    and devotion
    three
    unassuming
    stones
    garnet
    good son
    the protector
    of journeyers
    alexandrite
    fine daughter
    emerald by day
    ruby by candlelight
    garnet of fire
    baby girl
    joy and good fortune
    two winter embers
    surround
    a springtime
    rose
    everlasting
    circle of
    silver
    plain
    ordinary
    yet timeless
    endless
    a mother's
    heart
    forever
    embraced
    by
    the
    love
    of
    her
    children
    Oh Jo that's beautiful, now you have a gift for them! Your words to cherish and hand down to their children.
    Just lovely,....
    "two winter embers
    surround
    a springtime
    rose"
    You have 2 January babies, no? And a May. My favorite stones. I am a January baby and we married in May, I wear an Emerald wedding band.
    Thank you so much for your gorgeous words and the love that shines in them :D Bless your you and your family

    thanks pandi....i am happy that you like it
    i have two january babies (ha funny how i still refer to them as babies...hahahaaa..they always will be my babies right?)..my eldest son and my youngest daughter are january
    and my middle daughter is june...the alexandrite stone is often called described as being an emerald by day, ruby at night, because of its changeable hue under flickering light like candlelight...and it so expresses my middle daughter's personality!
    .... Thank you for your kind words
    MAY Is also my birthday and I do love the emerald..it's my favorite..it means many things to me, celebration of birth- May 1st, and that of my ancestors in the emerald isles....ireland (and wales)
    peace,
    jo

    SHOW & TELL....

    My prized possession I have brought today
    fits in the palm of my hand.

    Although small it makes really big things happen
    in really huge spaces.

    It is lightweight and colorful,
    comes in many different colors,
    and was invented thousands of years ago.

    It is priceless to me
    yet costs but a fraction of a dollar.

    With this possession, when used just right,
    millions of hearts are touched.
    Joy, love, sadness, anger, admiration,
    untold emotion is felt.

    When I lay my eyes on it
    beautiful memories come to mind,
    that hold me and bring me close to tears.

    Here in my hand,
    I know how very special it is
    just because it is,
    because of where it has been.

    You see, my prized possession belonged to a man
    that I prize above most others.
    And it was given to me with a point of his finger
    and a toss in the air all hallows eve.

    I show you now my prized possession
    that I hold above all others.

    It is my precious Eddie Vedder guitar pick,
    my priceless possession, my forever gift,
    and sorry no, you may not touch it!! :D


    that brought tears to my eyes and a swelling to my soul (and a lump in my throat)
    i know just how you feel pandi
    how lucky you are to have that special special gift from ed
    and i love how the words describing the pick
    could also describe ed...small but makes things happen in big big ways

    love it
    peace,
    jo
    peace,

    anybody inspired by this unusual picture with a history?

    It’s been a while
    since I’ve thought of you
    And I remember..
    the time I fell in love with you

    So if you feel a breeze
    you may believe,
    it’s me
    and if a tune comes to mind
    you may know
    the voice
    is mine

    There’s something I never told you
    there was a place
    I once discovered when…
    I’d think of you

    Sat amid teardrops on the grass
    by a hidden river
    beneath that tree reaching …
    to embrace the nearby river
    I’d seen a tear in your eye
    for the crying nature

    I’d found us
    in a hereafter

    I’m now bones
    just like you’d said …I always was
    playing to the dark
    just like you’d said …I’d always play
    but beyond, now lies that place
    I’d discovered
    thinking of you

    I know I‘d promised you
    that there were places I’d take you
    I know I broke my promises
    to you

    And so, still playing to the dark
    I now wait
    for you
    if on this side
    you ever wish to…maybe…
    see this place too

    I especially like that and the thought of waiting for a past love
    I sometimes feel this with family who have left this world,
    that they are in a breeze, a sound, a smell.
    Thanks very much I enjoyed.

    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.





    Pandora, going back a few pages I just came across this, and I love the way you signify the darkness, and how you find relief in it.. I've always been attracted to a dark setting.. makes me feel comfort... and it's funny how you also talk about reaching and embracing... amazing...

    I'm glad you liked what I wote... thanks

    Thank you, I find comfort in the dark because I find my dreams there, awake or asleep.
    Dreams connect me to where I am going. That is comforting to me.
    I always like what you write, we all do :D you have great talent and we are lucky to have you here with us.
    This can be said about so many here, it is a privilege. As I've mentioned it must be the PJ gene ;)
