Silent/Poem Share

Silently we search for something, anything

Patiently we put off things just to give time to that waiting

It is a thing we often do the most alone

Never telling anyone what we feel inside or what is wrong.

There can come no answers from people’s glances

Only the soul is that direct and true

It does not confuse us or distort our trust

What it requires from us

It is best to find out

Silently it actually says so very much

It never even needs a human touch

Souls are silent answers the things within

The things we patiently wait on to either start or end

Our feelings follow suit with what our souls silently say

We often time get in its way.

Emotional robots we are

Letting ourselves be told how to feel

Often time we don’t listen to our soul and its silence

We should, before we lose the ability to actually hear.

Quote of the day

“Never continue in a job you don’t enjoy. If you’re happy in what you’re doing, you’ll like yourself, you’ll have inner peace. And if you have that, along with physical health, you will have had more success than you could possibly have imagined.”

― Johnny Carson

Inside Park/Poem by MwsR

beautiful blur close up delicate

Inside it is an attraction for sure

Not easy to navigate through

I know that it will cost for someone to explore

But I cannot say anything more.

 

Life is strange there, inside of me

Nothing there is easily understood

Anything can surely appear

Trying hard to always keep out those drifts of tears.

 

Inside it is never quite

If you were to see what all goes on in there

You would surely be scared

I know because I am the one who has had to care.

 

Parks should be exciting and fun

But if it the inside one.

There is just discord

Especially when you enter on your own accord.

 

Inside Parks come with no clear direction

Nothing is free

There may be turmoil to see

When it is inside me.

 

So enter softly, patiently, and calm

I often tell people being here is no fun.

It is merely “to occupy one’s curiosity”

And they leave, usually.

 

No one really comes there and stays for long

It is most unpleasant at times

I try to keep it free of clutter and trash

But it is bound to happen, inside, alas.

 

So come if you wish

Don’t take anything with you

I run this park all on my own

It is hard to maintain, when you hurt all alone.

 

Inside Parks are inside all of you

They have things that attract

And they have things that can make a person blue

Enter cautiously, take nothing away

So the inside park can continue, yet again, another day.

In one’s mind often we have undeniable manifestations of our feelings.

They can come across into our daily living if we do not place them where they should be. Often times it is something we our own selves have dreamt up. Be careful lending an idea or theory to be truth.

I believe that all people bring something to this melting pot, we call the world.

Some are full of CHARM, with them comes a feeling of pleasantness. Some are rather “SALTY” meaning they are more likely to be sassy and brazen with the things they say.  That is okay though, because we would not want everyone to be like cookie cut-outs, where everything is the same, now would we? You also have those people who come from a different CLASS of economical measure, than you do. Not everyone can be rolling in the cash. Some people fight to save what they can up for hard times, while you could have another class of folks that never save a dime for the long haul. Some suffer without the needed money they so desperately need and that is sad to see. It is just fact that not all of us can be “well off”.

You have people also that you meet in life that are “take CHARGE” kind of people. They do not wait around for the others around them to do something, They just jump into a situation or circumstance and get busy doing what needs to be done. Their consistent nature will RESONATE in the heads of those that witness their “get up and go” attitudes and hopefully something of that will rub off on another person. Eventually that type of effort will SINK  in another person’s mindset. It is like a trickle down effect. Like a COIL  that can spring back and forth never giving under pressure, people resemble that more often than not, especially when they have good examples around them. The same though, also can be said of bad examples.

As Electricity can be dispersed to various places, so can the actions and words of a human race. Like a NEEDLE in a haystack, we all have somethings we hide from others. That is okay, somethings are best to be kept to ourselves. We have the ability to PICK and choose what we bring to the table. This SITE at WordPress allows some of that to happen, just by allowing people to express whatever it is they want.

Like a contagious WAVE we all affect each other in one way shape or form. Let us make it a good effect and let us be kind and understanding to one another.
