Birthdays come and Birthdays Go
How fast the years pass
With wrinkles to show ;)

When we are young
so much hope and fun

As we get older
cocktails for everyone :p


TAG: Rock {left to interpretation}

Guess franks verse rubbed off on this short on the spot one :rolleyes:

"ROCK"-BMW-
Rock is dead BUT ….
I wanna rock!
We will rock you
Crocodile rock
Rock n roll will never die.
Rock on…
Rock around the clock.
Rock n roll junkie,
She loves rock n roll
-----------------------
next TAG - SHAKE... (how ever you wish to interput )

Bring
Us
Some where

New TAG IS--- HARMONY

hope all tag players are doing okay. :hug: :grouphug: :hug:

Harmony

Could it be?
It's really me...rhyming words for thee?
Silly me,
just wait and see my words fall in harmony...
...or maybe not ;)
writers block or life in shock
dealing with great turmoil
though I'm calm
my sensitive crown
seems to have let me down
crying or laughing
I don't know which
will bring balance;
maybe it's both...
life will only know
why my soul's been searching around...

next TAG: Lessons

Lessons...
:)

Lessons In Life

Lessons in life,
Can be difficult to take,
But hopefully,
We can learn from every mistake.

Lessons in life,
Can sometimes be hard to face,
But hopefully,
We can find the courage to embrace.

Lessons in life,
Can be impossibly tough,
But hopefully,
We can feel the smooth after the rough.

Lessons in life,
Can be so rewarding too,
And hopefully,
We can let the positives see us through…

Next tag - Mistakes

Shiver

A shrill, high scream that made me shiver,
fear creeped all the way to my liver.

What such a thing made such a sound,
it was terrifying, shrill, and so loud.

The trees were still and I did shiver,
was this sound down by the river?

I slowly walked and quietly I did shiver,
slowly, slowly to the river.

The trees did sway, the moon was dark,
was it someone at play, a fun lark?

As I slowly came close to the river,
the sound again made me shiver.

In my unrest of this sound at night,
the moon was not giving any light.

Again, I hear and again I shiver,
but now I am at the bank of the river.

I see the reason for such a sound,
and then I slowly just turn around.
T'was the wind that shrilled and I did shiver.

Next Tag...
Water

Colors - beenthere

Red, blue, yellow and green
All primary colors you have seen

Mix them up and you will see
Purple, brown and a golden breeze

A color book or paper plain
Use the outlines or imagine fame

None too young and none too old
To use with the tools so often bold

Exciting to view the outcome
Go running to show what's done

Brown, Black and Orange too
It's halloween time made for you!

nice poem beenthere, when you finish next one you get to decide the subject for the next person,

:no subject:
limboland

so we look for an answer and search in vain
answers we seek ideas down the drain.
one doc says yes another, he says no
what direction do you search, where do I go
not knowing what ails us, can drive you nuts
the feeling gnaws at you rips at your gut
I know its not much comfort for others to say
trust your inner feelings and live day to day
I was fortunate and only limbo'ed for seven years
the thought of it being MS, I never knew that fear
my heart goes out to all who have no answer or clue
the feeling of not knowing can leave you so blue
those living in limbo, it can text yourself to no end
when all we want are answers, and to be on the mend


dedicated to those in limbo


new subject

autumn

I haven't been here in awhile so forgot... isn't the previous person supposed to leave a subject for the new person? What is it nana?

OPPS OPPS :rolleyes:SORRY LOR I WAS BAD AND FORGOT:rolleyes::rolleyes:



HOW ABOUT TAG IS :::::::::::: TURKEY:rolleyes:

Turkey? Really?
 

A feast of peasants and Kings alike,

We all await your entrance this Thanksgiving night

The guest at our table with no tale to tell

The reason for the ringing of the dinner bell

We'll dine on your body leaving nothing but bone

And be thankful for each other, your presence unknown'

So thank you dear turkey for completing our feast

And for the time with family all gathering to eat.

New Tag: Sorrow

SORROW -BMW '08-
Sad , suffer, sympathy
Overwhelm , over barring
Remorseful
Regret , repent
Oppressing ,
Weeping ,wail

Hi to all the new tag players :) ya all did great legzzz, COK , Beenthere . nice tags everybody !
I will leave the New Tag is ---- Giving how ever you interpt that.

giving of ones self there are so many ways
a helping hand a loving heart, a kind thing you say
it is of ourselves that we share to make others glad
glad for the kindness shown, forgetting they were sad
then the true impact of giving hits you as you sit and reflect
knowing this minute` effort did have an wonderful effect
you made someones day, brighten someones dark cloud
maybe it made a difference and kept them from shouting out loud
shouting in frustration, only to be smiling and feeling anew
because you gave of your heart and helped erase their blues
giving of yourself with no reward to hold as your own
through random acts of giving hopefully a new seed you have sown



next tag

dedication

The heat has left the valley,

The birds fly away

I search the hidden pathways

Filled with promises of snow.

TAG may be:: Presents

PRESENTS --BMW--
In these poems,
One will stumble
On many presents.
A broke , bored ,
Moment of time
Will find treasure.
Colorful gifts, dreams ...
Lost and found.
All warped up in
lined Rectangular boxes.
Someones soul
Visions , inspirations
Spilled essence.
Thanks for sharing
These poetic presents.
+ + + + + + + + +
Tag is --- TOUCH

...touch
 

Touch of a hand
Touch of a word
So many
Seems absurd.

Treasures found
Treasures hid
Here among
The sound.

Silent giving
Silent sharing
A treasured
Meeting gound!



Tag = Light

I lie awake and alone
Nothing but darkness where your light once shown
I listen to the wind, and wait for your voice
I am bound to you, I have no choice
But to lie here, alone in this bed
Not knowing how you feel, the words left unsaid
The light has left, the darkness overtaken
I lie here broken, my love forsaken.



New Tag: History

...history
 

We have history,
Tis filled with mystery!

Creation formed,
Unformed in time.

Birth...death
People...love

Civilizations: above-below,
The timeline

Macro-Micro
Earth, Space
Heart and Mind

Creation-dissolution
Illusion-



New tag: Heart

................"heart"

Where do i go where should i start
to find the love that shall fill my heart
filling it with love compassion and joy
shall I be bold in looking or shall I be coy
how will I know if this person is the one
how many days weeks and years under this sun
shall i search for this love ever near or far
wishing each night for my hearts desire upon a star
searching for the truest love under the heavens above
my soul and heart ever yearning for true love



tag you are it


snow or snowfall

Oh mighty snow how I smite thee!
 

You're so bitter and cold
Oh how I hate the snow!
Slippery and wet
warm days I quickly forget
snow's piling up outside of my door
and the stupid forecaster keeps calling for MORE
should move to an island in the Caribbean sea
where this nasty white stuff could never reach me
Oh mighty snow how i smite thee
armed with shovels and salt you will never defeat me!


New tag~ Peanuts!

"peanuts"
grown fresh from the ground,
generally they are sold by the pound.
cracked, whole, chopped, roasted or in a spread,
they are a fun snack when one is fed
pbj or in a cookie, sometimes mixed in a bowl
their countless use's we have so many times been told
two to a shell, some salted or plain
a wonderful treat comes sun or rain
the taste pleases my palette and peanuts are their name
but the best tasting peanuts are 10 cents a bag at the game


hmm tag you are it

" confusion"


Hello Legs and Mist, glad you have been enjoying tag poetry, nice poems from both of you, thank you

"Confusion"
 

Confusion I can do,
Comes with the morning dew,
And in the evening too.

Could it possibly be due
To this dark and strange fugue?

Seems that there are few
Too many in this hue.

Light and darkness mix.
Anger - fear to fix.
I'd really like to kick
Confusion to the sticks!

But here I am to ponder
With thoughts that really wander,
And leave me in this quandary!




.....back at ya weegot5kidz

tag, next = star or starlight

( I am NOT good at poetry, but can I try?)

I dance to starlights in the night

prancing and dancing with delight...

luminous rays envelope me

sparkling lights my dreams carry

beyond the stars, mysteries abound

other universes around and around...

I'd love to walk upon the rainbow bridge

to gossip amongst the stars without infringe

I open my eyes on earth I stand...

starlights winking

beams holding my hand....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

OK, sucky...LOL

next: "abate"

not bad snookems

standing alone looking through tears
me and two kids alone, so many fears
figured she meant what she said at the alter
never thought through it all she would falter
I gave all I had and more of my heart
was true in soul, spirit and mind, from the very start
how could a mom not love her kids, and show such abate
how could a mom leave two kids and me alone at hells gate


new tag

grandkids (if it applies and or kids)

pumpkin, I don't hold a candle to you...

"I am not worthy..."

that gave me a lump in my throat...

awesome....

nonsense snookems

"WHO ME A POET"
What is a poet
I wonder sometimes,
Some one good with
Words and rhymes.

There's others with words
That fill you with thought.
Such words of wisdom
That can never be bought.

I think of those
Who speak from the heart
With loving caring words
That give your soul a start

I wonder what a poet is
Just about all the time
It's now clear to see
It's all of them combined

So I think a poet is
One who knows
They have feelings they
Are not afraid to show
..........................
So if my thoughts
Are true
Anyone can be a poet
Including you

tag still remains grandkids and or kids

I wanted to get star I am benidng rules...

STAR-BMW-
Yesterday a star
landed in my yard .
Down by the road,
it came with a card.
An Angel danced,
leaving heavens dust.
the warmth it brought
was strong and robust.
I found a star that
was sent just for me.
It came with a
book full of beauty.
Of friendship and trust,
thoughtful love kindness
All hit me with a gust.
Such colorful art to delight!
All to warm my soul when
lost in the dark cold night.
A star was gifted to me
from a friend with heart!!
Lifted off and carried.
To a spot it will never depart.

A word,
Must be

Makes me reach-
For a hand,
A hug,
A warm embrace!

Leaves me open...seeking-
Life some more!

Another moment,
Another day!

So I may fly,
In the sunlight someday!




Ok BMW sis.....(((hugs)))

New tag ~ Friend, or Friends

My faithful friend through life's ups and downs
We've shared it all: tears of joy, even angry frowns.
Many embarrassing stories and secrets you have kept
And shoulders are soggy from the many tears I have wept.
So thank you dear friend for being by my side
Through good times and bad I'm glad you came along for the ride.




New Tag~ Window

Well, this poem does have 'Window' in it...:o

Looking Out The Window

Looking out the window,
What do I really see?
A bright sunny day,
Or how it seems to me?
Looking out the window,
What do I want to do?
Face the reality,
Or ignore what is true?
Looking out the window,
What do I feel inside?
Show my emotions,
Or keep them all inside?
Looking out the window,
What do I want to say?
I can find the strength,
To face another day?

Next Tag - We've had Window...how about Doors?:o

A decision of a life can be made in a day
taught to be true and honest, never sway
yet some fall from the path they were taught
to follow ideas they think can be bought
what path does one choose and how to decide
the decision one makes, to it they must abide
follow your path in life and may its course run true
be honest with oneself so you are never without a clue
so as each day passes and you find whats in store
a path was chosen in a day, by stepping through lifes door


yikes i changed that one a few times


tag you are it

paradise

sands, palms,

the crashin' of the waves...

breeze, cocktails,

the gentle sunny rays...

indulgence, indolence,

being Crusoe by the bay...

contentment, relaxant,

nothing's in my way....

Paradise, paradise,

for some it is an escape...

Paradise, paradise....

for me, peace and harmony, always....

tag: "money"

Money comes and money goes.
In and out of hand it flows
to buy, to barter to save away
in hopes t'wil be enough one day.

Money , thought we need it, true -
cannot- and should not define you
You are much more than what you buy
or own or have a vast supply.

It's who you are that really counts
your loves, your joys, not large "amounts".
So when you start to count your worth,
count all your blessing from your birth

Your wealth will build up so much faster-
The kind of wealth that really lasts
when you count the smiles, kind actions,
prayers, and friends' sweet interactions.



New tag - waves

""""""""""""""waves"""""""""""""""
waves come in all shapes and sizes
from cosmic to earthly some with surprises
like the wave at the beach knocking you down
stumbling to regain you feel the clown
some are cosmic and follow lightening to the ground
those thunderous claps fill the air with the wave of sound
watch out its 110 in the shade, yep its a heat wave
find a shelter or building with air just to be saved
look at them all standing in a row at the game
believe it or not the wave is its name
so you see waves come in so many different forms
some so simple some so far from the norm
yet only one can make me tear up in my eye
the wave from my loved one as they say goodbye


Tag you are it

"Sunrise"
