I am a tree

892279_autumn_2_5.jpg

I am a tree

sprouting forth and reaching out

for the glorious sunny sky

strengthening my stance

drawing forth life

from the warm womb of the ground

bearing forth what fruit

i may offer to all

giving my shade

to those who may want to rest awhile

Not all men may notice me

when they pass by

not all may taste the fruit

that i have whole-heartedly offered

nor avail of the shade

of my embrace

and yet  i stand

and yet i stand

for a tree remains to be a tree

though no one comes to rest in thee

its arms remain wide open

its fruit renewed always in their season

its gaze always before the sky

smiling

knowing

standing firm

where God has appointed thee

Tides Arise

intense emotions
can’t stand the pain
parting
farewells
tears my soul apart
how do you keep on hoping
while holding
the broken pieces of your heart?
but you hope
you hold on
you take a deep breath
and you are able to breathe
alas
hope is there
in that very breath
and you are able to wipe away your tears
for a while
tides recede
for it is nature’s way
it will rise again
but so will you
so will the broken pieces
of your heart

FRIEND (a simple poem on friendship)

a poem on friendship

I may not always be by your side,
but my prayers will be with you.
I may not always help you,
but deep inside you know I want to.
I may not always do what you like,
but I will do the best I can.
I may not always understand,
but we can still walk hand in hand.
I may not be the perfect friend,
I may not be the best out there,
but in spite and despite all these,
you can be sure somebody cares!  😉

MEANWHILE (a poem on waiting)

meanwhile poem 2012Meanwhile

The rain is pouring

The sky is dark

There’ll be no hills to climb today

There’ll be no seas to cross

But I’ll sip my coffee

and I will be cozy

and enjoy the cool wind

blowing by

meanwhile.

The land is plowed

The seeds are planted

Yet harvest time has not arrived

But I’ll watch the sunset

and my fields of gold

and I’ll take

a sweet little nap

meanwhile.

Yea for those who wait

for their tomorrows

let none then waste

of their todays

For all is well

and all is fine

for those who pray

and smile

meanwhile.

LET GO

Let go of your tears,
and you will see the light.
Let go of your worries,
for tomorrow is alright.

Let go of your troubles,
or you might lose your peace.
Let go of your fears,
and you will find your dreams!

You will find your life,
is more meaningful to live.
You will find your burden,
getting lighter like your soul.

You will find happiness,
always waiting on your way.
You will find heaven,getting nearer each day!
