The life's that were lost



are far in between  the 
bravery  that has been 
shown to us,all of it
hasn't been in vain.

we honor you,cherish you 
and never forget what 
you have done.
 
because of the bravery 
you had shown.Come's with 
the dignity  of knowing
the love,and honor
from us all.


I simple want to SALUTE  you for all, you have done...

LOVE

Love is happy
 love is sad.
 Love is to be enjoy in different ways.

SUMMER DELIGHT

          
 Winter dreams summer breezes
the smell of summer such delight
with green grass and flowers a bloom
 and glorious sunshine makes summer
happy and consumed.
The out doors are filled with activities
with people a bustle to enjoy what summer
 has to offer.
 I want ice cream I smell barbeques cookin.
The parks,and beaches are fill with people with
play to enjoy every part of summer every which way.

WHO IS A POET ?!

So,far I've feature two of my favorites poets who I whole heartily admire.But,what's a poet?I mean I call myself an aspiring author/poet.Am I really a poet?I know this shouldn't be that difficult to answer,but I'm curious.Reason being at times I can find words that flow perfectly together,and other times I'm just pondering.Another reason is I always thought poetry was words that had to rhyme to be a poem.I know that seems  childish ,but hey that's what I thought.
What I found about poetry is that there are so many aspect to writing,and being a poet.,but where do I fit in to the equation?Again I know this shouldn't be a geometry question,and can any one be a poet?I have so many questions,but no answers to any of them.
So, since I see myself as STILL taking baby steps.Some of my poetry will be understandable,and some won't.

FUTURE MEMORIES


Can you remember your first memory?
Was it some thing important,was  it a
 loving memory of what's to come?

I dream of memories of my future
ambition,and dreams that where just
that a simple dream.

I wonder the future memories that I
thought of,can be my every present
memories that I dream about,and hope
to achieve.

Only time can tell if my future thoughts,
dreams,goals aspirations are just future
memories that will never come to past.

TEMPORARY SADNESS

I struggle with the thought of happiness
I'm  some what afraid  of the outcome,
I don't know what's on the other side of
happiness.

It's feel like it's so far in the distance
that it's unattainable to reach.There are
times when I feel a little bit happy only
to be short lived with sadness.

Waiting on happiness comes,and it goes
it seems like it's never reachable,and
when it do some times comes I wish
it would stay,not just temporary.
