A couple find themselves taking different paths in life. Something happened to destroy what they had. There is regret felt in this piece. The longing is very apparent. The desire for a second chance is sadly there. Just to be close again. To feel as close as the breeze and see the smile that always brought light. Vowing to hold on tight this time.

Thank you for sharing.

Watching the season changing is found in the piece. The malicious snow is coming soon. The autumn leaves fall and a rustling is heard from he breeze. While inside a protective structure it is moon light scurrying through the trees keeping the darkness at bay. The autumn trees whisper 'it won't be long.'

Enjoyed your imagery.
Thank you for sharing.

They ended it thinking it was justified. Our character can do nothing but cry. Did they give it enough time to try to fix it before calling it quits?
Sometimes emotions get in the way and mess with our judgment. After the dust settles, the couple start thinking of what they are missing. So do they try to fix it or is it too far gone?

There is longing felt in this piece.
Regret is very obvious as well.
Tears are shed.
Bittersweet memories are no substitute to warm affection.

Thank you for sharing.

When we become adults we sometimes forget we are His children. He watches us make mistakes and try to find out way back. Jesus made a path for us long ago. We the children. We are His creation and we are loved beyond comprehension. Unconditionally from birth to death. He is as close as a heartbeat and as reassuring as the coming dawn.

Let the child inside make joy and share it with others.

A couple separated by circumstances beyond their control must make the best of things. Our character expresses the deep longing and wishes things were different. The time goes by slowly; almost like an eternity. Missing those kisses and hugs. Dreaming those precious dreams. Letters are so necessary but hopefully they will end with the real thing soon.

Thank you for sharing.

This piece is a tribute to abused children. How they try to make it through life with so many memories of things they shouldn't have had to deal with. The verbal abuse, physical abuse and sexual abuse inflected on them at such a formative age. Our author considers a plague to recognize the he-l they have been through.

Just think how many children endure this every year. Behind closed doors or on the street. Even in schools. Lets say that each carried a plague around. Just think how many there would be. Thousands and thousands of purple plague reminding our society of the presence of evil.

Thank you for sharing this.

It's one of those magic days and our character is in love. Just one problem, there is some missing going on. So what better place to go than to the cherry blossom grove. There is no better place to lay and watch all those tiny little blossom float by. So then day dreaming takes hold and it's their time to share.

It's not unusual for a friendship to turn into something more. The problems comes when it's time to tell the other person. The feelings just keep growing but there is worry about the revelation spoiling things.
The friendship is solid but can talk of love weaken it? Is it more than the other person wanted or needed?

So after the air has cleared our character wants the friend to be straight about their feelings before too much time is invested.

Thank you for sharing.

This is a piece from the POV of the baby. The day of birth was frightening for the baby and mom. The baby needed her mommy with her but they were separated for an emergency run to the hospital. After the mommy came she rushed to make sure her baby was still alive. It turns out the baby has a disease that will be a challenge for the rest of her life. She is confident though cause she knows mommy loves her and will help her. She also knows God is there helping too. The mother must have prayed a lot for the baby to know about God and his mercy and love.

This is a touching piece.
A sad piece.
I noticed some mistakes in spelling and structure but it is a baby writing it.
This must have been horribly difficult to write.
Hats off to the author.
Thank you for sharing this emotional event.

The author brings us a piece to think about. The destruction those oil spills keep doing to the environment. The sea creatures and birds are without hope. Sure, there are some that are saved but the water is getting so polluted death is everywhere.

Meanwhile, the pockets get fuller. The owners build bigger homes. The cars get fancier as they drive away from the shore of death.

Shame on mankind. The first spill was a tragedy; all the subsequent ones are neglect.

The author brings us a piece about family fun at the beach. The kids are playing. The kites are flying. The sandcastles waiting for the tide to come in. While all this is going on the parents can finally just lay in the sun and let the kids run about. Of course there must be some souvenirs brought home to help remember this day. Pictures, maybe just a few.
The most important part is being together. Family time and making every minute count.

Thank you for sharing.

A family trip turns upside down. We all know how teens have their minds in their own realm. Being on a cable car is not the time to space out. This is funny and so true to life. Reading it a parent can certainly feel for the parents. San Francisco is huge. A cable car going up one of the those hills. A father beside himself with worry as he runs.

The sad part is this isn't a little mishap but a big one. Not like the teen is wondering around in a mall.

Love the descriptions and the funny tone to the piece. This had to be real.

Thank you for sharing.

Our author brings us a lovely glimpse of nature. The water acts as a mirror reflecting the surrounding trees. To someone standing there it would be hard to choose which is more majestic; the real or reflection.

The descriptions are very vivid.
To someone who has only seen concrete, this must be a pleasure. It must make that person curious to see it first hand.

There is so much in nature just waiting to be enjoyed and it was gifted to us by the Master's hands.

As you read this lovely piece, picture it in your mind. Find the serenity it brings. You could even linger a bit and give your minds eye joy.

The family is there for the celebration. Grandpa falls holding his chest. The uncle tried to help but grandpa didn't make it on the ride to the hospital.
The ending came as a surprise. The grandma reacted differently than expected. Was it a type of shock? Could she have been tired of dealing with him?
Who knows?
Pretty good story for such a limited word count.

This is a very realistic piece. One that rings so true. The details of what is going on in the woman's mind are exceptional. The feeling of being in prison and no escape. The part about making up excuses for the bruises is so true. The times of hitting the floor and staying against the wall in a ball to try to avoid the rage is real. Deep inside is the desire to leave but fear holds her there. The escape has to be done just right and at the right time to avoid being caught.
So many people don't understand this horrible existence. Many do and it helps to know they aren't alone.

When you read can you feel the emotional and physical pain. It isn't a joke it's a nightmare.

Thank you again for this piece.

Our author reminds us that poetry can do many things. We can express our emotions. It helps to comfort us when we need a friend. That's right poetry is a friend and once it makes its way into the bloodstream, so to speak, it sets us free. Sure it's not an easy craft but there is a sense of creativity we all need and want.

Once writing is in your blood it's hard to stop. You might look at it realistically and know you won't be famous but that's not what matters. It putting that pen to paper and doing something that not many people can do.

Thank you for sharing.

We may find ourselves tired at times with all the chaos day to day life brings. Then when you think about where we are blessed to live. This country, our country. From humble beginnings to the magnet it is even today. The dream of those coming here for a better life. The soul of our country should never be taken lightly. We should respect her, love her, protect her and cherish her.

Best part:
Shall remind us of how valuable and lucky
A truly venerable soul can be.


Thank you for this inspiring piece.

Here we have a person living a lonely life. This choice is made by himself. Some people get knocked around more than others and after a while they begin to withdraw. The ultimate reason is to avoid more hurt. There might be some that question these actions or think they can bring the person back from the funk but it is where he feels safe.

Something happened along the way that made him not even like the own sight of himself. Someone made him hurt, really bad. Perhaps it was someone he loved and stomped on his heart. Now, left with no self worth; he wonders why anyone would want to see him, including himself.

This is a sad situation. Who could bring him back from this pit of quicksand. After all he is sinking slowly and no one is noticing.

Thank you for sharing this emotional piece.

His inspiration/raven landed on his arm and they entered the old house. Inside they began listening to the same eerie sound they had heard many other nights. Sure, they wondered. Sure, they might have searched a bit. Soon, however, the setting became a plot point for writing. He begins to write and it flows like a waterfall. When finished the bird and writer leave never to return.

Sadly, there was a reason for the pounding. Could the writer have been too caught up in his imagination to put much credence to it. The possibility to think it was coming from a explainable source was without merit.
Instead, leaving the sound to the dark world with no real explanation seemed fitting.

Thank you for sharing.

The author shares thoughts of how the night can cast an aura of such darkness and then fear. Night has a way of putting humans in a vulnerable state. Oh, but then comes the Sun. She slowly rises and adds light to the darkened land. It's not scary anymore but the darkness will come again.



Why not look at it like this?

The bright blessed day and the dark sacred night. After all, day or night we are never alone.

When we grow older sometimes we find ourselves remembering younger days In this piece a man walks along and finds his mind back to a special time for him. When he was having a birthday party. All the decorations and the fun put a sparkle in his eyes. It makes him happy to remember and thankful too. Many begin to loose their memories when reaching his time. It's funny how life brings us blessing that we might take for granted until we realize some aren't so fortunate.

Apparently a couple have come to a cross road. They both intend to go their separate ways. That's fine but one needs to have a last say. Realizing the character of the other person, the one with something to say has to handle this just right.

Lets say one of the two misplaced a coffee cup.
Neither want to accept responsibility hence they are breaking up. Finding a way for our speaker to put the blame on the other must be carefully hidden behind some sweet talking untrue guilt. So now, the guilty one feels a bit better and the not guilty one takes the blame but knows it's not true.

Untrue guilt----I just can't remember where I put it.
I guess it was just one of my spacey moments.


True guilt----After I have had to think clearly it just couldn't have been you. You always keep thing in their place.

Interesting piece with a bit of word double talk.

The room it was a familiar one. Many nights to share their love. Now there is betrayal lay waiting. No need to pretend. The secret is out and the evidence is felt. She won't lie but he can't believe the truth. He stays in blind illusion as the days go on and on. Will she cheat again? Can his heart stand another confession? Is his anger and hurt hidden inside and waiting merely to surface? Only time will tell.

Her grandpa just died and she has to some how deal with it.
While the grown ups go about grieving they forget she is too. Or maybe they think she is too young to understand.

So where does she go but to her comfortable place. Her room with her toys. This box is full of things that use to bring her a smile and now they only hold memories, sad memories.

Perhaps there was a special doll grandpa gave her and now the doll is lonely too.
Then she might get mad at the doll and throw it across the room. She has no way to let the pain out.

She has questions but no answers right now. She might even wonder about where grandpa is. Will he be ok? Will he remember her?

The adults must make themselves available for the child as a sense of security. If not they might wonder about losing someone else they loved.

The last thing she will do is pick up the doll and sit by the window and stare outside hoping to find any answer with tear filled eyes.

Your piece says a lot.
Thank you for sharing.
