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.

SOUL STIRIN POETRY

poetry in our souls
we elvate the words
and we mold to are souls
and whisper them through 
are heart,and speak with our 
minds...
I breath every breathe of poetry
with every word I speak,I run 
words across my mind and visualize 
the epitomy of speaking my poetry 
ever so softly....
 but fear escape me from mumbling
a word,,,the thought of doing so has me
bouncing with fear,as different words
enter my mind,and form a word to slip through
my mouth.....
I feel the soul stirin poetry  release me of my fear....
