posticon White Sneakers and a couple other bits of sweetness....


so some times I write these little observational sort of poems...wrote this the other week at a show of local musicians a friend was running for a charity. The guy in the white sneakers was up with another musician friend playing, guitar, stand up bass (concert bass) and toy paino emoticon He was very talented. And also cute but to young for me-lol


"White Sneakers" 3/6/10


Sitting there with your clean white sneakers
Hooked on the the rungs of the stool
I've never seen you before
I listen to the music and
wonder about you and
Who you are though you know one of my friends
Are you the one who gets all the girls?
Or are you the kind that is so shy you are oblivious?
Are you conservative or adventurous?
You have a relaxed manner and a pleasant look
And I wonder about you sitting there
In your clean white sneakers

~~~

   inspired by watching another musical friend on stage one night- I may still tinker with it a bit not sure it's quite right.


"Ripped Knee" 3/8/10


Sexy knee through your ripped jeans
Just the one which
some how makes
it all the better
Scuffed worn work boots
Toes now more gray than black
It gives you and interesting sort of charm
That seems to suit you well
With your care free easy going style
and you Brian Setzer hair-do


~~~


inspired by something that happened years and years ago but just recently written.

"the Pond at Midnight" 2/14/10

We sat on a log by the pond at midnight
We'd drunk whiskey and taken a walk in the snow
The moon was full and we stared at the stars
And talked about dreams and the past

~~~


Hope you like them I know people her sometimes do enjoy the more light ones.
I'll post another neutral one and one fron the dark side in a day or 2.

Wow, I like them. See I wish I could go deep with my poems. Here at the mental health association, I run a poety group but i think im going to switch to journaling. but these are good. Do you do a lot of poetry?

Re: White Sneakers and a couple other bits of sweetness....


Good luck. I write TONS of poetry more than I even bother to type up and post and a lot of times looking back at some of it later I don't even think some of it is worth sharing and on occasion I think some is too personal. The past year and a half a sometimes read some at an open mic at a coffee shop here.

On of the things for me the past few years is to have a few notebooks so there is always one handy and I don't have to delay - whit -oh where is my notebook I don't want to go find it- and when I start to get an inspiration stop right then and wite it down unless it is totaly impossible. I keeps note book in my purse and car even. It helps a lot. That said the are also times I'll go weeks with out writting any of feeling inspired but there are also days I'll write 3 to 6 and they just seem to gush out.

I'm glad you liked then. Also a lot of mine tend to be short- lots of people I think get bogged down thinking poems need to be long or rhyme of fit a certain pattern.

Heck naw they aint gotta be like. I wish I could write poems without having to rhyme. I feel like I have to have mine rhyme. idk why. Probably because my lack of bigger words. "/

sometimes I write one that rhyme. But even keeping a journal will help you with wanting to write poetry- gives you a place to put your thoughts. I've had a few time where things that started out as journal stuff turn into poems. And don't think you need big words either.
Don't think I put this hear wrote it last winter very short and sweet....

     "Fuzz"


A thread from your fuzzy scarf
Is stuck on my jacket
I find it when I get home
I miss you already


 emoticon

and they don't always have to be "real" sometimes mine are like bits of fiction with some inspration from fact
