As Is Life

Poem About Our Memories
This poem was written in 2003 during a sad and
stressful time in my life. I am sure many others
from all walks of life can relate to the sentiments.


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
You remember the days when you mess up
The days when sadness brings tears
But you forget all those small happy moments
When it's laughter that brings you to tears
If only we could be happy forever
To look forward, not think of the past
Our lives would be full of elation
With sadness a ghost of the past

Song About Old Troll - Lord of The Rings By J. R. R. Tolkien

J. R. R. Tolkien is famous for his fantasy novels The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. This poem was sung by Sam Gamgee in The Lord of the Rings. Audio clips can be found of J. R. R. Tolkien singing this song himself. Troll sat alone on his seat of stone, And munched and mumbled a bare old bone; For many a year he had gnawed it near, For meat was hard to come by. Done by! Gum by! In a cave in the hills he dwelt alone, And meat was hard to come by. Up came Tom with his big boots on. Said he to Troll: "Pray, what is yon? For it looks like the shin o' my nuncle Tim, As should be a-lyin' in graveyard. Caveyard! Paveyard! This many a year has Tim been gone, And I thought he were lyin' in graveyard." "My lad," said Troll, "this bone I stole. But what be bones that lie in a hole? Thy nuncle was dead as a lump o' lead, Afore I found his shinbone. Tinbone! Thinbone! He can spare a share for a poor old troll, For he don't nee...

Music By Bessie Rayner Parkes

Bessie Rayner Parkes lived from 1829-1925. She was an English feminist who became an editor of the Britain's first feminist magazine. This poem showcases how nature creates a concert for anyone who stops to listen. "Sweet melody amidst the moving spheres Breaks forth, a solemn and entrancing sound, A harmony whereof the earth's green hills Give but the faintest echo; yet is there A music everywhere, and concert sweet! All birds which sing amidst the forest deep Till the flowers listen with unfolded bells; All winds that murmur over summer grass, Or curl the waves upon the pebbly shore; Chiefly all earnest human voices rais'd In charity and for the cause of truth, Mingle together in one sacred chord, And float, a grateful incense, up to God.

TEACH ME

Poem written out of Emotions for a lady Story behind : A copy right of a movie Titled BEATZ RHYMES AND LOVE just make sure you enjoy the poem. She does to me What winter does to the trees She strips me bare, naked and empty. I laugh to myself, because... I can't sing, it's just..  She makes me want to try and harmonize. Like I've got no worries bothering me tomorrow. Like I've got no dirty clothes hamper full of yesterdays ,stinking up what future is left in me. But I really ain't no saint, Never felt love true bliss. A disciple of my father, I learned to love with clenched fists. I learned to love like reading braille on skin. Tracing the insecurities of women through the palms of their hands. But with her, it was different. See, she was in every single word I wrote. She walked a poets refrain. Spoke a sweet soliloquy. But I recognize the lack of trust in my own heart. Because only a fool won't accept the nourishment that's right...
