Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Starving for attention: 1 of 134
The child was clothed in wealthy plaid, Stitched by a tailor's skill, Had shoes which had been cobbler made, And shirt with hand-stitched frill. His books were bound with quality, His pens the finest plume, For everyone to clearly see, Or judge as they assume. His father was a wealthy man, With business links worldwide, Thou... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Locked out your heart: 1 of 104
It wasn't easy locking out your heart, Though something that I felt I had to do, Aching with love, I found I fell apart, Although you weren't at fault, you never knew. How I would watch your smile, the flicker of your eyes, From distant places, noting every trace, It helped me sleep, like nature's lullabies, To see those war... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Best love poems: 6 of 554
Brittany Morning The mists have cloaked the earth with their protection from the sun And dewsdrops hang on cobwebs, as the night-time hours are done. Like diamonds they hang in strands that soon will disappear When the brightest sun comes through the mist announcing day is here The fairies lurk beneath the flowers in gardens... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Fresh air: 1 of 89
Using the rhythm of the poem "If" by Rudyard Kipling. If you can change your overall consumption Of petrol products that pollute the air, And realistically assess your gumption, Until you make decisions that are fair. If you can walk instead of always driving, And cut the harmful fumes that form a cloud, Of smog that says co... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Truth: 3 of 214
They told us all when we were young, We were too young to ask, Our songs weren't ready to be sung, Like childhood was a task ! They tell us what we need to know, Intepreting our need, What happened to the way we grow ? Or nurturing the seed. They told us 'Listen to our folks' Though never to our soul, Not knowing that our pa... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Heaven, Hell & Afterlife What happens when we die?: 3 of 195
I believe that when we die, our soul comes back in a kind of neutral state until it finds another life to partake in. May sound weird, but it isn't. What strengthens my view is what I have experienced in my own life. 1. I have had an out of body experience. I died and for a few moments could see clearly my own body on the be... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Far away: 3 of 194
Poetry: Far away Far away above the cloud, Where little angels sleep, And hide within a safety shroud, Their peaceful moments keep. There is a saying that they use, About those who are living, And in their heaven do refuse, The folks who do no giving. For far away where rainbows lurk They watch you from afar, And see you sle...

Style & Beauty > Shoes Why women buy shoes that hurt their feet: 1 of 60
There really is a reason why women buy shoes that hurt their feet, and it's pretty much summed up in one word: Vanity. We have all done it at some stage in our lives. We want to get away from the frumpy look, change our style, change the way that people perceive us and through the different stages of being a young woman to o... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Anger: 8 of 402
I never knew how anger makes you feel, Or all the negativity it holds, Your mind and being know that it is real, As all the aspects of the tale unfold. We take our anger and we make it huge, By thinking on the negative and then, Behind emotions and our subterfuge, We enter that bad circle once again. For anger twists the min... More..
Relationships & Family > Elderly Parents & Care All the right intentions: Moving your elderly parent into your house: 2 of 97
With all the good intentions in the world, moving an elderly parent into your home means a lot of planning and thought. Good intentions ill thought out can produce unexpected results, and at an age where a parent is vulnerable, it is far better to think things through as this ensures the harmony of the household and safety o...
