Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Death of a loved one: 25 of 562

Why Did You Have To Die? As a child I followed you around but without much communication "Say your prayers, clean your room" the extent of conversation You did spend time with me at night before I'd go to bed We'd hug and kiss and laugh and talk but it's hard to recall things you said Mommy, I miss you you left me too soon Y...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Inspirational: 23 of 439

Bridge The Gap Bridge the gap between young and old The distance in between Connect not to age or experience But to the common bond unseen That place where you and they are one A unity of souls A mirror of yourself sometimes And as your heart consoles You bridge the gap from here to there Understanding all you see That we ar...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Longing: 36 of 397

Oh how one's heart may yearn for the love of one Grasping at any shallow thread of attention thrown their way Hanging on like a child on it's mother's arms, to that lingering smile from a passerby Hungering for a taste of more conversation when a stranger says hello Thirsting for a drink from a lover's soul that they might c...

Remember Remember why we do this A weekend all together To bond, to share, to laugh No matter what the weather Remember why we do this Remember who we are Seven sisters shining Each one of us a star A twinkle in Mom's eye A smile in Dad's heart They love when we're together Not when we're kept apart By irritations, disagreem...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: My dear mother: 22 of 91

Amazing Face White as snow the strands of hair That fell around her face Her soft brown eyes and rosy cheeks, A smile that showed her grace A face which told a story In the lines time would not erase Lines from friends and family Each line had a history Some lines belonged to others Some lines belonged to me The ones I'd wis...
