Hope

Submitted by Sarah B. on Fri, 03/20/2009 - 20:00
There shall be an Eastern dawn.
There shall be a day.
Even though it be far from here,
And I cannot see the way.

High above these clouds I see,
There is the endless sky,
For which the soul forever dreams,
In which the spirit flies.

I trust the Maker of the stars,
The Maker of all light.
He will guide me though my paths
May lead through darkest night.

Though I may feel trapped, defeated,
Underneath these stormy bars,
I know that even though ‘tis night,
In the sky are many stars.

Song of the Things that I Always Will Be

Submitted by Hannah W. on Thu, 01/15/2009 - 04:08

Breathless darkness,
sparks in the air
Scattering stars
wind in my hair

Tumbling through fields,
light touch of feathers
Song of the earth
echoes forever

Heartbeat and dirt,
trees sway in the night
Shadows and flame
glowing orange, bright

Smell of the forest
cool air on my cheeks,
running, heart soaring
no words do I speak

Orion the Brave,
with his arrows and bow
he hunts in the sky
and the way he does show

Pure Joy

Pure joy,
so good, so wonderful
just the memory makes my heart soar
I can still feel the wind
as cold as the snow
and the ice all around us
as it rushed through my hair
as I spun around, twirling,
my mind spinning, whirling
reveling in the new revelation
And the yellow light, spilling
from the windows and doors
and the darkness that glittered
with crystal stars up above
Just the sound of laughter,
and the sight of a smile
makes my soul lift even higher
Running, and spinning,

Night Under the Star Filled Sky

*Author's Note* Yay!! Finally, a good poem written by me! I love poetry but I have a lot of trouble writing it. I'm VERY happy with this though, and I hope y'all like it! P.S. Sorry it's so short!

Her eyes reflecting stars,
She looked
To the night sky
That t’was filled with
Bright Lights.
The moon shown
On her face,
Coloring her white,
On that night
Under the
Star filled sky

First Snow

Submitted by Anna on Mon, 11/10/2008 - 21:07

Fragile fairy structures
Climbing up your window
Tell you what has come,
What is to be
Again.
It makes you
Smile.
Run outside
Spread your arms
To the falling snow
It urges you
To let go
And smile.
Snowflakes
Caught in your hair
And on your lashes
Sparkle and shimmer
Like a million jewels-
Like the stars above,
They wink, they twinkle
They set off
Your smile.
Great black trees
Tower against the sky,
Against the purple twilight,

Night

Submitted by Bernadette on Fri, 09/05/2008 - 11:59

Glittering stars
On a black sea
Unmoving waves
High above earth

Silver moon
Beaming with brightness
On a dark land
Hushed in the night

Soft wind blows by
The ever standing trees
Quietness comes forth
And covers all

Veil of blackness
Light shines through
Glow of softness
Upon resting fields

Who Am I?

Submitted by Raine on Thu, 01/24/2008 - 18:44

Who am I?
I fly through time and space,
Adrift in a sea of stars.
Spinning, floating, falling.
Silence is all around me,
Pressing on my ears.
Infinity stretches on.
I am lost in a maze of stars.
I have lost all sense of myself.
Who am ?
A speck of light, drifting through space.
I am nothing.
Surrounded by this beauty,
This size, this wonder. . .
I am nothing.
