Recollections
I AM SO GRATEFUL for simpler times. I AM SO GRATEFUL for the good old days. I AM SO GRATEFUL for pictures. I AM SO GRATEFUL for recalling childhood grins. I AM SO GRATEFUL for yesteryear. I AM SO GRATEFUL for mouth-watering smells. I AM SO GRATEFUL for a trip down memory lane. Katherine Scherer and Eileen Bodoh are authors of "Gratitude Works: Open Your Heart to Love." http://www.gratitudeworks.com

What's a prisoner to do when justice fails and the innocent is escorted off to jail? Write Your Way to Fame Have you ever thought about how nice it would be to see your poem discussed in the New York Times? Think you have what it takes to become a famous poet?

The Time Has Come and Buzzing Most of my poems are written late at night, often, as this one was, after I have turned out the lights to go to sleep. It seems that is the time when I am most creative.

Growing Growing hurts sometimes; saying goodbye to friends, to things you've known and done to things you wanted to do. Growing heals sometimes the shattered dreams and hopes of a life you once knew leading you to a new knowledge of yourself. Growing is fun sometimes meeting new friends learning new things making changes that feel good and moving on. Growing is necessary always. Without change there is stagnation death instead of life. To choose to live is to choose to grow. Copyright 2002 Five Poems Poems have different cores, or so I believe, and can only be structured well for certain figurative language-heart beats; like all counselors are not made for all clients, so all poems are not made for the same person, or purpose; when we read we all have our likes and dislikes; I do not necessarily know what poetry is per se, but I do know what the greatness of poetry has, and great poetry is close to an illusion?it carries an echo I do believe-figurative yes, at best, and questionable yes, by far.

Farewell to Lester Graybill I never met a man, who could shake my hand, and make my heart feel like a hearth afire. The Power of Eating Disorders I want to get close How to Write Bad Poetry "All bad poetry springs from genuine feeling."--Oscar Wilde Rocks Take some time to stop and look at nature. Pick up a rock or two and think about where it might have started out and what it might have gone through to end up where you found it. Its What She Didnt Say When I hear your voice inside my head it makes me think of you every single day as I fight back tears of sadness and wonder if you're okay Africa AFRICA (to africans in diaspora) Life is a Fantasy LIFE IS A FANTASY!
