poetry slam

SEARCH

I'm waiting waiting for you to come get me
I've been waiting all day all night
Just for you
I haven't seen you come get me yet
Why am i waiting
I should be searching for you
Im going to find you right now
I don't want to wait Im going to you
I don't care how far it is to get to you
all I want is to be with you
Im searching for you my love
I know your out there
I'll find you so we can be together
I love you I love you
In this world there so many things we can do
Together
I'll find you I'll find you all over the world
Walking around every corner
everyday I look for you
are you looking for me or just forgetting me
No
I know your looking for me
so we can be together
Im searching for you my love
I know your out there
I'll find you so we can be together
I'm reaching my hand to be close to you
I want your arms around me
Feeling the love heart

Hello everyone here is mine>.<


Autumn Leafs

By Tia

Autumn leafs you are such a beauty,
But why are you falling off you're homes? Is it because you don't get watered? Or is it because it's the season? Whatever you need please tell me. Oh why are you're leafs falling? Is it because of me? I wonder if it were me, I would do anything for you. Do you want me to stay away? Or do you want me to stay here with you?

beautiful...just beautiful...both of you girls' poems...

here's mine...

Fourth of July
(c) Michael Le

Can you hear the fireworks today?
Boom! Snap! Everyone's out to play!
Thunderous and loud noises fill the sky!
It's time for fun and fire to roam and fly!

With color explosions throughout the night,
You won't need to turn on the lights!
With sparklers and candles and families and friends,
No one should wish that this night ends!

[Poetry Slam]

~Who I Am~

When the sun has risen,
And time runs strong.
I wonder...
When the sun has fallen,
And the moon has been lifted.
When the waters have calmed,
And time has frozen.
I wonder...
Every second, minute, and day
Of my life I wonder,
Who am I?

Am I a lost bewildered blossom that has fallen from an old whithered tree?
Or a plant sprouting out of the soil?
Am I a wanderer traveling the world in search of wonders?
Or am I just a loner looking for my place in the world?
Am I a fragment from a sweet dream?
Or a dark silhouette shadow from a nightmare?
Am I a ghost from the past?
Or a prediction of the future?

Am I a dreamer or a wisher?
A writer or a thinker?
A hero or a fantasy?
An angel or a demon?
An artist or a painter?
A friend?
A traitor?
A consumer?
Or am I a giver?

With so many thoughts running through my head,
I don't even know if I'm any one of these thoughts.
But there's one thing I know for sure.
I am me.
My own unique self. =]

wow yuna, that was beautiful and very well thought of ^^
it was breathtaking the way ur phrases worked, absolutely lovely!

zevilgirl, ur phrases are very nice too, very deep and sincere, almost haunting and mysterious too.

my-superstar, urs was very nice, it had a little hint of evry emotion i was thinking about, ur phrases worked well with the words u chose, very nice.

and micheal le, i dont know where to begin...
ur otomatopoeia was outrageously fantastic! u used one of the
main points and details that make up poetry, it was lively and fun!

i enjoyed all of ur poems very much. any1 else want to submit a poem?
the deadline is nxt month around when the collectibles open^^
i'll submit my poem too, but it will be a fair choice^~

~Cold as night, Bright as day~

by, Yeng

Throughout the cold night, owls hoot and spiders come out.
all is quiet through the feilds and valleys.
The night gleams with the moon's bright shine,
like a disk of white foam were in the sky,

When the moon goes down and around the way,
the thing to shine now is the time of day,
so strong and earnest is this light, we gather our
things and ready our day.
the sun so bright and golden yellow, as if the stars
fire seeped and shallowed, all the
darkness seems all gone.
all the coldness seems not strong, but
is the road of dreams awakened?
are all the valleys minds outspoken?


when the time is right, and when the light is fine,
either darkness or gold may outshine the beaming
road of life.


i dont think its finished exaclty but i wrote it last yr for english lol
i dug into my backpack and found some old poems i wrote ^^
i was too lazy and tired to come up with anything new lol >.<

i loved all of ur work, and when there are more submitters i will read what u wrote and i will enjoy evry one of them!

well...i gotta say those were so...so....i dont know where to start, but they were so good! its like a pizza with every topping on it! lol
Lets see if i can top those poems...
“The Three Monkeys”

Three monkeys were stranded on an island
Far, far away from the mainland
Samo, Jimbo, and Bobbo their names were
And where they were, they weren’t really sure

Very hungry, that they were
Bananas were what they prefer
But no food was found at the shore
So they had to venture further and explore

Into the island’s forest they went
And it was too late to resent
And yet, Jimbo and Samo ran back
But Bobbo kept following his track

Then Bobbo stumbled
Upon a hill and tumbled
Down and down he fell
His only thought was falling to Hell

Crash! He landed on the ground
All safe and sound
He looked all around him
And what he saw made him forget about Sam and Jim

Where he arrived was a monkey’s paradise
Then he rubbed his eyes twice
And then said, “This place is all that I’ve dreamed of!
This has got to be better than love!”

i made this in 7th grade...and i dug it up under some files in my comp ^.^

i have a short little poem and
it dosent have a name yet.
[Poetry Slam]

I've seen a rich man beg.
I've seen a good man sin.
I've seen a tough man cry.
I've seen a loser win.
And a sad man grin.
I heard an honest man lie.
I've seen the good side of bad.
And the down side of up.
And everything between.
