IF
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust youself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream--and not make dreams your master;
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--not lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run--
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son.
-Rudyard Kipling-
To Raven who inspired me to do this page and who supported me
in my love for poetry and to all in room 4 I dedicate this poem to you.

You
Are Always in My Heart
No
matter where I am
or
how long we are apart,
I
carry within me the sound of your voice.
It
helps me through a difficult day
until
we are together again.
When
all around me seems dull and gray,
I
release the memory of your smile.
It
brigthens my heart and warms my soul,
freely
filling me with joy........
I
cherish the times
we
can share together,
and
I long for you
when
we are apart.
Your
love has captivated me
with
feelings that remain
always
in my heart.

"Stop the time"
On the way home with you by the sea
we're walking close together
In the setting sun
do you know?
I believe that if I could stop the time
Yes, I would hope that you would feel this same as I
Stop the time, please don't say anything
By my side, don't let me be alone
Stop the time
When I grumble about my worries
Even if you don't listen to me it's OK
Do you know?
I believe that if I could stop the time yes, I would
Time with you means everything to me
Stop the time, please don't say anything
By my side, don't let me be alone
Stop the time, please don't say anything
By my side, don't let me be alone
This feels so right
this was written for me by Happy Buddah.
My Fingers In Your Hair
love should not be pain my love it should be fresh and new
and life should not be rain my love but rather morning dew and dreams should
not go unfulfilled for real ones are so rare like one I have of you, my
love my fingers in your hair my lips are meeting yours as I dream, wanting
not to awake until that kiss I feel inside you give for me to take and
the essence of your love for me is the only dream I know and as the sleep
leaves these eyes of mine the love just never goes it walks with me throughout
my day and night alike my love it shows up like the morning sun and fits
me like a glove it may cause my heart pain my love but this I gladly bear
to sleep until the morning dew
my fingers in your hair
RISKS..
To laugh is to risk appearing a fool..
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental..
To reach out for another is to risk expossing your true self..
To place ideas, your dreams before the crowd is to risk their
loss..
To love is to risk not being loved in return...
To live is to risk dying..
To hope is to risk despair....
To try is to risk failure......
But risks need to be taken, because the greatest hazzard
in life,
is to risk nothing...
The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing,
is nothing...
He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot,
learn, feel, change, grow, love .......live..
Chained by his beliefs, he is a slave,
he has forfited freedom...
Only a person who risks is free...
This for Judoman who seems to love what ever i throw at him
where my poetry is concerned
Love you Dale
Friends
Friends today and friends tomorrow
Together we will share our sorrows
Help each other through troubled waters
And be there through thick and thin
Closer than brothers and sisters can be
I'm there for you as you are for me
To lend an ear when you need to talk
To hear what you have to say
To share the tears of lifes hard times
To give support in troubled times
To share with you the joy and glee
Of good that comes to you or me
To simply give or get a hug
To be there when you're feeling down
To share a bright spot in the day
To help to chase the blues away
To me that is what a friendship means
To be a part of sharing things
To help each other when in need
To share each others' dreams
I remember when at first we met
Rare and wonderful...this friendship
I pray that it will never end
For I am proud to call you friend.
I would like to dedicate this to all my friends in para2...

Bell birds
By channels of coolness the echoes are calling and down the
dim gourges i hear the creek falling it lives in the mountains where the
moss and the sedges touched with their beauty, the banks and the ledges
than sweeter than singing the notes of the bellbirds are running and ringing
I forget who wrote this little poem.
I learned it when in grade 2 just one if these poems you
cannot forget.

This Man's Dream
what do you say to a dream you have had when the dream is
a lady you love? what words to find to take her heart? what magickal syllables
to think of? what wonders of eloquence would not be frail when one tries
to describe one such as she? what tools could one use to pull heartstrings
tight that may not answer the love tugs from me? what dream can you dream
forever, if need be that never pales, only grows more beautiful with time?
such as the lady, my dream love, the object of my affection I know that
this dream will always be mine be there some meadow with it's magic plant
sprouting "word flowers" beyond compare I would take these to her beauty
placing the first against her skin so fair I would use the others to tell
that one of these dreams that she makes so sweet then I would lay them
circled around her as I kneeled there at her feet..
I would like to dedicate this to Sir Richard and his lady...

The
Many Faces Of Love
Your
many faces of love tell endless tales,
each
expression a life unto itself.
The
tender caresses of your smile,
the
waves of passion in your eyes.
the
impatience in your fingertips,
the
dedication, forever, on your lips.
The
fates of time a winding road,
testing
your restless desire.
Hours
melting into days, into weeks, into months,
kindling
your wanton fires.
You
love me for all the right reasons,
you
damn me for the very same.
In
heart, soul, spirit ~ we are one,
In
miles, a world apart.

The Magic of Love..
Love is like magic and always will be....
For love still remains life's sweet mystery.....
Love works in ways that are wounderous and strange....
And there's nothing in life love cannot change...
Love can transform the most common place into,
beauty, splendor, sweetness and grace...
Love is unselfish, understanding and kind...
For it see's with the heart and not with the mind...
Love is the answer that everyone seeks...
Love is the language that every heart speaks..
Love carn't be bought it's priceless and free....
Love is pure magic is a sweet mystery...

One Minute.
I have only one just a minute..
Only sixty seconds in it,
Forced upon me, carn't refuse it...
Did'nt seek it, did'nt choose it..
But its up to me to use it..
I must give suffer if I lose it..
Give account if I abuse it...
It is only just a minute
But eternity is in it....
Makes you think does'nt it??
Friendship.
Time sifts our friendships and our friends..
For time alone can be the test...
And with the passing of the years..
We losse the false and keep the best..
And when beyound the distant hills..
The sinking sun of life descends..
We find God's greatest gift has been...
The love of true and faithful friends..
Patience Strong

This is dedicated to the Muskerteers to whom i have come
to love with all my heart and soul
I Love you guys very much
