The Butterfly and Dragon

The Butterfly and Dragon

This butterfly had landed,on the tips of quiet fingers,

soft upon her wings,as she stilled her flipping wingers,

she said with a heavy sigh,

I can't soar in a Dragon's sky,

not even as far as the dragon is high...

then came along,so tiny and young,

the smallest of dragons,resting on my thumb,

he said with a sigh,how tired am I,

a puff of smoke, may go higher than I,

when… Continue

Why does the Willow Weep?

Why Does the Willow Weep?

The Willow weeps when she sees Her Earth,

the greed of mankind, showing their worth

She weeps for Humanity and what they've become,

Listening to the Animals, and about what they've done...

Under this willow I feel her pain,

under her bough I write in vane,

Trying to Save Humanity one poem at a time,

Listening to this Willow as she weeps me her rhyme,

No more Sweet Water to quench… Continue

Peace'd be Nice

Peace'd be Nice

I push for Peace in all that I do,

We need a truce between me and you,

We need to get humble,or our world will crumble,

For Peace I speak out,to leave you no doubt,

I've seen the crashes and I've seen them Rumble,

don't sit on your asses or sit and mumble,

Ashes to Ashes if we just watch it crumble...

I push for Peace in all… Continue

My Sweet My Marilyn

My Sweet Marilyn

When I first saw you,I was really in a mess,

Then you turned my heart around,

This I really must Confess...

You asked me "Please, just show me true"

We'd play our lil'games, 'till I came to you...

You took my lonely heart, into your loving hands,

I asked to walk the shores, of the West Coast sands...

To watch the setting sun,in knee deep waters we wade,

Remember Laughter of the Children,and… Continue

Escape My Heart

Escape My Heart

I have felt just as trapped before...

my only escape was love...

the love that shone from far away...

the love that drew me near...

but now pushes away my feelings...

but without,I'm nothing...

my dream is escape...

to fly away like a bird...

my soul becoming the clouds...

my blood stains the sunset...

as night… Continue

Fog of My Mind

Fog of My Mind...Story of a Dream by LonelySoul

As the fog rolled in,quietly drifting along,slowly making it's way throughout the slumbering valley.

My thoughts were about my dreams of last night.

I sat quietly on this little knoll,overlooking the valley below.

My home town,nestled in the nooks and crannies of this little vale,only a few rooftops were… Continue
