just .....................
just some nice poems i came across...................


Ice Princess


She alone creates her own chaos
Always blaming she never learns
Looking not at her own self
Only at others imperfections

Walking thru her life with blinders
She truly never sees
No consequence for her actions
Unfair life excuses her ways

Through the fogged realities she wanders
Not seeing the forest for the trees
"I didn't lie on purpose"
So no reason for apologies

Silently she walks among us
Her own perfection, nose in the sky
Too good for anyone's suggestions
Alone each night, does she cry?

A heart without compassion
Her caring ..only a facade
Suffer those who don't stand with her
Hell's fury if she's scorned

Maybe something's lacking
Her soul seems too stone cold
Ice princess she will allow no love
I wonder, will it change as she grows old?

Until One Is Committed


There is hesitancy, the chance to draw back,
Always ineffectiveness.
Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation),
There is one elementary truth,
The ignorance of which kills countless ideas
And splendid plans:
That the moment one definitely commits oneself,
Then Providence moves too.
All sorts of things occur to help one
That would never otherwise have occurred.
A whole stream of events issues from the decision
Raising in one's favor all manner
Of unforeseen incidents and meetings
And material assistance,
Which no man could have dreamt
Would have come his way.

"Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."

	Nice poems...but I'd really like to have a standard definition for poems...I mean, I could put a sad little para or an inspirational one into verse form and call it a poem...... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I don't think there is anything called "standard" when it comes to poetry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That request was actually a rhetoric...I meant that without something to set aside poetry from prose, anything can be called a poem, can't it?...Most poems I see these days, are just paragraphs set in verse... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Lol, That was what you meant by passerby? :p I thought, you were the passerby-kinda passerby...ok, now I've confused myself... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lol, what are you doing? You shouldn't be confusing me further...I've already done that myself... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
