41. A Journey To A New Year
First day of the New Year.
It's time to shine for a new day.
Forget your past,
Your sorrow, your pain.
First day of the New Year.
It's time to shine for a new day.

Your sorrow, your pain.

It's strange the things you remember
And the things you seem to forget.
It's a jamboree of all sorts,
A patchwork of joys and regrets.

To get through life you have to endure as a tree does.
When Mother Nature tries to bring you down,
You will never fall; you will stand your ground.
You will encounter burning flames.

A prayer was held in our nation,
Beauty was seen in more ways than one,
Children who are lost could find their salvation,
Give quality time to your loved ones. Otherwise, you will lose them gradually.
Relationships are very beautiful, especially those always giving unconditional love.
Searching for something that may never be known,
mental disturbance turns a heart back to stone.
Create memories alone in your head,
As a child, I was very abused by the man I always THOUGHT was my dad. He did things to me as a child, like put guns to my head, knives to my throat, kicked me, stomped on me, and even hit me...
Floating, heart askew
In the dark, deep tunnel of nothing
Claw with every cell of me
Reach out for anger, greed, sorrow
In a sea of darkness
Searching for the light
But those who you once loved
Have left you to deal; alone
I believe there is a path and a purpose for all of us. The first step is asking this with all your heart. In your path you may encounter difficulties and feel alone or in pain, but Angels,...
Remember those days when you were young?
Life was as easy as it could be.
There were laughs and stories and dreams.
You saw the sunshine and you were free.

In spite of war, in spite of death,
In spite of all man's sufferings,

Society seems in a mess.
Mothers cry, while fathers stress.
To be polite is a disgrace
as children mock you to your face
This is a very inspirational poem. May the poet live long to inspire more souls. It has uplifted my spirit and renewed my hope.
If you love somebody with your heart, soul, and mind,
Every road to adventure is one of a kind.
Though the road may be rugged and your spirits are high,
Still the sun seems to shine on the loved ones going by.

"Hope" is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
I recited this poem in grade six and it has been an inspiration for me ever since. Wonderful work!
The things I've seen will scar me for life.
Growing up, I've seen wrong and very little of right.
I hear a sad song, and tears roll down my face.
I look in the mirror and feel so out of place.
My life is like a flower. It started as a seed that was planted in someone's backyard. Every day this flower looked for sun and water as the roots started to sprout. The flower started to...

There's a great painful disguise,
Disguise that dressed their lonely heart
With devastating cuts that ever hurt.
