One Tin Soldier
Listen children to a story, that was written long ago. Bout a kingdom on a mountain, and the valley far below. On the mountain was a treasure, buried deep beneath a stone. And the valley people swore they'd, have it for their very own. So the valley sent a message, up the hill. Asking ..........

Happy birthday Poem
Happy birthday you look the same, A few wrinkles, nothing to shame. We all lose our external beauty, Growing internally is our duty. Happy birthday you look the same, Time is flying by, who should we blame? Aging can't be all that bad, More experiences, you get to add. Happy birthday you look the ..........

No More
I do what you want, when you want. Everything, everyday. I do my best to make you happy. But it seems like your never satasfied. You put everything on my shoulders, It weighs me down, to the ground, to the very bottom. No more making you happy. No more being a foot stool. I'm not going to let you ..........

Life Poetry

Life poems instill values and lessons in life that others can take with them for similar trials and tribulations that others may experience in a life time.  Inspiration can be found throughout life and such poetry help make an effort to share the wisdom found in living life more tangible for the reader.  Many times the only way to learn is to experience learning in life’s struggles and taking note from others that have experienced life and expressed it through their poetry.

Reflection Poetry:
We want to know about your life experiences. What lessons have you learned? What is the meaning in your life? What wisdom have you gained on your journey through life? We all have our life changing events and struggles, and we all try to learn from these experiences to become better people.

Quotes about Life

"Poets utter great and wise things which they do not themselves understand"
~ Plato

"Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing happened. "
~ Winston Churchill

"Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes."
~ Emily Dickinson

"A great man is always willing to be little."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Poets are masters of us ordinary men, in knowledge of the mind, because they drink at streams which we have not yet made accessible to science."
~ Sigmund Freud

"The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

"No man was ever yet a great poet, without being at the same time a profound philosopher. For poetry is the blossom and the fragrancy of all human knowledge, human thoughts, human passions, emotions, language."
~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge

"The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Life Poem of the Day

NEW LIFE

I've been sitting around this life for years,
Not enough laughs and too many tears.
Trying to figure out where it all went,
These wasted years that I have spent.

Searching for something to go beyond,
Life's a stone skipping across a pond.
At the last skip, it hits with a splash,
Down the stone sinks, gone in a flash.

Pushing and pulling, it's tearing apart,
Poking and prodding an underused heart.
This dark velvet curtain that hides my soul,
Living this life has taken its toll.

In a flash of bright light, the curtain is torn,
Tumbling down all tattered and worn.
Revealing new life, a child within,
Born free of hate, of suffering and sin.

Now my eyes see what has never been told,
Striving forth happy, confident and bold.
Into a world that's unfamiliar but friendly,
Into this new life my spirit will send me.

Living and laughing, loving it all,
I stood myself up and answered the call.
The darkness has gone, replaced by the light,
I gave up the darkness with hardly a fight.

I've been sitting around this life for years,
With laughter aplenty and hardly a tear.
Now I can see just where it all went,
Cherish every moment of this new life I've spent.
