Ha-ha...In my belly...

I love the arts!
I love poetry!
and the people who are creative are very cool!
I appreciate this more than you know!
Bless your Artistic hearts!

The Walls of Discontent -

This fortress of walls that I have built
To suppress my rage, impatience and guilt
I need them there to keep me sane
To keep silent the knowledge of the pain

I have subconsciously put up these bars
To halt the tears and hide the scars
And forget the years the locust ate
To forgive myself and those I hate

I’ve put them there to save my heart
In case it heals from being broken apart
These are my walls of discontent
To hide my hell to a greater extent

and this is from my friend who shared his poetry with me!
The Next Day
Written by J Lloyd Manring

Dawn crept up - as if unwilling
It’s prospects already dimmed by events
Transpiring before it’s birth
Harsh words were spoken - the tears shed
The emotional blood spilled
Even the door was slammed on cue
And only now does reality
Seize me by the throat -demanding attention
That I am alone…

tenalouise it is so good to see you here and to have you share your poetry, and that by your friend.

I have a special love for poetry and so I am very moved when I read yours

here is one that is less depressing - written by Gilda Radner

for chemar...


Doctors are whippersnappers in ironed white coats,

who spy up your rectum and look down your throats,

and press you and poke you with sterilized tools,

and stab at solutions that pacify fools.

I used to revere them and do what they said

till I learned what they learned on was already dead.



Gilda Radner 1986

(((tenalouise)))

that was a hoot! I am going to let my son read it...he will especially appreciate it

Gilda was one real special lady and had a gift of humour that was so unique

My son loves dinosaurs, I got most of everything at storeforknowledge.com. He got to build most of his decorations.
