Direction

Why…fight it
You will never, never, never
…Not deny it
With quiet, and
Subtle innuendo
Buy it

Cry…lying
You’ll forever, ever, ever
…Sit beside it
Light lit, or
Self illumination
Equipped

Goodbye...fly it
In clever, clever, clever
…Reliance
With compass, no
Indication
Try it

May the ring
Upon your finger
Be much more
Than gold to you
And the diamond
That you gave her
Reflecting what
A man must do
Hold her hand
In the darkness
Sheltered heart
From the pain
Say I love you
My forever
Listen to her
Be a friend

*****

‘Carry me aloft on gossamer wings’
Sings like an old folk song
You don’t belong
In the modern day
Playing cards for less than money
In a hollowed out hole
Back alley

‘Golden ring upon your finger’
Forget it, it’s you who lingers
In a past
You never lived
Along some river in your mind
Long run dry

‘On your knees and pray to God’
Has only begot the I.E.D.
On parched desert sand
The Oasis
In your imagination’s eye
A mirage

Shhhhhh

The warmth comes first,
Before the sun even lifts an eye…
I lie and look at your contours
Your golden hair
I watch you fill with each breath and sigh
The whispers inside
Make me wonder of the places you dream of
Am I with you
On your pillow
Or high in the clouds that surround you
Not to awake you…
I cannot resist, a touch

Midnight

Two silly gooses
Honking their love songs
Keep me awake
With their trumpeting air

Moon out my window
With Petrograd magpie
Light as a feather
With lunatic flair

Out of my window
Sprinkling bread crumbs
So they will sing
Serenades uncompared

All of my lifetime
The muses delighted
Bringing me riddles
And notes for my prayers

Now, I must leave them
So others may follow
To the end of the journey
They have prepared

-------I still have no title-----------
----My rhyme scheme is abba abba cdcdee---
________________________________

The brilliant colors which runs through my life,
Plus obstacles that make me really fret,
Makes me reflect, should I thank or regret?
What God has given me, be it a strife.

Dearest God, in my life, You made a knife,
In my stormy journey, I ought to get
Peace, serenity, but these can't be set,
For You made me a challenge, ?????

Rocks and stones do not grind me into dust
It polishes and turns me to a gem
The years I've lived, I did my best, it is a must
To show gratitude to God, unlike them.
That one day, I'll sparkle, it is God's plan
I already know, for I am a man.

Okay, I know they're not strictly 5-7-5. I was trying to capture a moment in three short lines.

Cirrus evening pink
Blushes the beach
Your lips on mine

Cat feigns disinterest
Inscrutable passing
Tickles my leg

Office two pm
Wishing I was home
Then, an email of love

I found one site ( http://members.aol.com/heraklit1/poets.htm ) where Vigil (the great roman poet '70-19BC' ) was included in the catogory of romantic poets. Can anyone tell me weather it is right to consider virgil as a poet beloging to the romantic era.
Added to that another site said "And all through the Medieval and Renaissance epochs, and down to the rise of the revolutionary and romantic outburst of the nineteenth century, Virgil reigned supreme."

Please help!!!!1

My partner and I have set up a local community magazine, we have been using a point and shoot digital camera, but feel that we now need to upgrade to a slr. We have no professional training in photography, so have limited knowlege on the subject. I have searched the internet for different reviews, but just seem to drown in information. Please can someone offer advice, please!!!!!

I have encounter some dark being standing infront of my bed just waiting there. It did not move a bit until I have gotten tired and went to sleep. This dark being has ruined my childhood, making me afraid of every dark corner I see. It has scarred me for 7 years and I think it is time for me to know what is this being look like not just a shadow in pitch black. This has changed my life a lot. I am now 14 almost 15 and I, for the same reason still scared of the dark corners. I wish I can encounter it again and tell it how it ruin my childhood making me to go to sleep only when the light is on. Thanks for reading.
Please if you know how it looks like, please post it
