You are sensitive,
A beauty so delicate,
Maiden well-cared of.

***
Your blooms are unique,
Unusual, yet so simple,
Lovely to look at...

***
Offering the White,
Lilac seems an endless love
Forgot what we were.

***
Have you seen this one?
Do you remember this flow'r?
You said I'm the one.

***
Decipher the words,
Scribbling because of sadness
Orchids we were once.

The Woman In The Mirror

©2007 Jan Brooks

The woman in the mirror
I always see a smiling face
No matter what life dishes out
She still has poise and grace.

So many troubles
Life has been all wrong
The woman in the mirror
Still sings a happy song.

The woman in the mirror
No one sees her grief
She learned to hide it well
Though she knows no relief.

Sometimes sadness overrules
And she wants to let go
And the journeys of life
Are often too much to know.

She finds the strength somehow
To carry the heavy load
Two steps further forward
Along the endless rocky road.

The woman in the mirror
Her beliefs have made her strong
Knowing there is happiness
That will someday, to her belong...

*A shared photo and a message that captured my senses. Reading this poem.. it  pulls on the inner emotions of the poet  for a woman. I have this feeling that the poet's subject is the woman herself. I may be wrong ..or he/she had been a witness to another woman's experience..somehow, the poem also reflects me...


Aurora

Your light glows into the night sky
Amazing splendor through the night
Joy, excitement in one's eyes.

How magical! How wonderful!
Enchanting, captivating lights!
Created by One so Powerful!

One of the most marvelous creations,
Not all people are blessed to witness...

Aurora why aren't you here?
How can we see the splendor,
your natural beauty presents.

Follow the dream, follow the sky,
Follow the land where Aurora is...

My Star


📷 image credit shutterstock.com

I gaze through the lens, 
I thought you were a star.
Your love touches my eyes reaching me, 
touches life, outlining your presence in me.
Your warmth never burns, 
your hug glows inside me.
Your brightness, is subtle, impressive,
 a love that knows no distance.
You speak through my heart 
without even opening your lips.
We consummated our longing 
every time the world darkens.
You are humble enough 
to reach me beyond the expanse, 
telling me there is something
 rather than nothing.
I then realized that you saw me before 
or is it I that saw you?
Every night, our future meets from a distant past.
I wonder if you are still there.

Winter-Spring

📷 image credit shutterstock.com

Flowers bloom in spring, snowfalls in winter...
Is it possible that two different ideas would connect? 
Blooming flowers in cold winter snow...
How ironic these two seasons would meet...
Will the winter snow protect the blooms in spring?
Will the snow save and preserve its blooms, 
or the snow will crush and ruin it?..

One born in spring, another birthed out in winter
Is it possible that two different generations would meet, 
and forego their dreams together?
Decades apart we could never say...
Differences in style and ideas could make or unmake them.

The warm breeze of spring could melt the winter snow,
and yet the freezing air of winter could preserve the blooms of spring.
Somehow one could never be prejudged what would really transpire,
for only humility, submissiveness, and sacrifice of each one,
could make it work, though perils and trials are way ahead.

SUNSET

Sun engulfed by dusk
Promises new day and hope
Dawn peeping through clouds

~~o0o~~

Beauty of Sunset
Unspeakable awareness
of what lies ahead.

~~ o0o ~~

 Sunset gives us hope,
Another day's gone away
 New day rise again

I belong to God
I am His beloved child,
whom He surely loves.

I believe God's Words
He is our true loving God,
who promised me life.

I believe God's works 
Created all things that we see
for us to enjoy.

I believe God's will
He knows what is right for me
and the best for us.

I believe God's ways
He's our Father who knows best
to set things straight.

May-December Affair

Flowers bloom in spring,
snowflakes fall in wintertime
What if these two meet?

~~~oOo~~~

Blossoming flowers,
covered with cold winter snow.
Preserve or destroy.

~~~oOo~~~

Snow preserve the blooms,
as the love of two people
save it though diff ' rent.

~~~oOo~~~


Snow can destroy blooms
 as the love of two people
tear each other's hearts
.
