At the bus stop

This one came into my head while I stood in the bus stop waiting to pick up my lil boy ... I don't usually judge my poems but I there's something about this poem that I really do like a lot although it is a little sad...


I see you
On my way
To the bus stop
Everyday

I don’t know what it is,
The look on your face
Like you’re thinking…
Or lost looking into space

I don’t mean to pry
But you always catch my eye
There's sadness there
In your eye

Makes me wonder
Who … what hurt her?
These thoughts cross my mind
While you make small talk
With another child’s mother

Your eyes meet mine
You give me a smile
Was it my imagination?
Or did I see a teardrop shine?

You Know What I mean?

Another all time favorite poem :)! Because it's got such a positive feel and one I always end up sharing with friends when they feel low and down. It's simply to remind us all that "Life's all about living and living it with a positive attitude"!!! :)

I hate it when people complain 
Never happy about anything 
Life is always a pain 

They have that look on their face 
It’s constant I tell you 
Not just a phase 
Mornings are bad 
Evenings sad 
Makes you wonder 
Really 
Doesn’t it drive them mad? 

I love life 
Through good times and bad 
Frowns don’t last…you know 
When I think of the happiness 
I’ve had 

Every cloud has a silver lining 
Every fall should make you stronger 
Take a look around you 
People care about you 
You will realize 
You can’t be sad much longer 

Think of it this way 
I care that’s why I’m telling you this 
You have to listen to what I say 
Just want to see you happy each day 

Take each day as it comes 
 If today makes you happy 
You’ll look forward to tomorrow 
 I know I am right…just look 
Wait…watch and see!

Being Me...

I find myself swinging.  Not on a playground swing.  Not high on dope. But on life.  Swinging into extremes... One minute I ...
