The Prince of Words

 

You are the prince

of ponytails and ribbons

with bare feet chasing rainbows

 

you are the prince

of first sighs and giggles

of moons and swoons dreams

 

you are the prince

of white veils and bouquets

and happily ever promises' sureness

 

the prince of oceans

that ebb and flow and rage

with all the powers of Poseidon

 

you're prince of tears

whenever tragedy cuts deeply

cruelly without thought or reason

 

your only domain

is the world of words

and within it you are the prince

My Love

 

My dear, my love, my being,

can I say it well?

 

You are my life, my very soul,

you're in each breath I take.

Light of my life, day of my night,

just be all that you are.

 

I wonder where and what I'd be

without you in my life.

 

And may I say with no regret,

I wish it so forevermore.

The Other Side Of Now

 

 

Where would I be without a now?

Would  I be happy - warm - carefree?

I think of my sorrows and heartbreaks

they would never have seen day's break.

 

Embarrassment leaving scorched cheeks

heavy times heaved out the windows

cash always filling my pockets

ardure - suffering never known.

 

But then I'd never know heaven

the ecstasy and pain of you

the ins and outs of paradise -

that's the other side of now!

For a number of years I dabbled with all kinds of writing. First, I tried a novel. It was terrible and I gave it up quickly. Essays are fun, but not something I wanted to do.

One day I wrote a poem, knowing nothing of poetry except snatches of poems I heard all my life. And many of the poems I read were too hard to understand. I grew up appreciating all of the arts, but I came to enjoy writing poetry more than I had ever imagined, and not obscure poetry either, but easily understood work. In this book I have tried to gather poems to which anyone can relate. I write from the viewpoint of people with all different emotions and obvious fantasy. I leave it to the reader to discern, apart from the obvious fantasy, works which are fiction and which are based in reality. Prepare yourself to be entertained and if you are emotionally moved, then I have done my job……..JLW
