In
the summer of 1996 I met someone online. The romantic
relationship didn't work out, but we did become good friends.
All
I want to share is some of the wonderful poetry I found
in my mailbox every day. JC is an exeptional poet who
paints with words. He's a true minstrel too, a story teller...
Words
special enough to make my day and they still warm my heart
and I hope they will do the same for you.
Passion
and Pain
Passion
and pain
are the same sometimes
they both cut deep
the memory of each
is something you keep
It stays with you all
the days of your life
The good , the bad
the joy and the strife
When thinking back
just look ahead
look for the possibilities
the could be's instead ...
"
what if I had... "
is a trap
Don't let yourself fall in
Just look to the future
and wear a big grin..
Fore as long as the future you still can see
then all is not lost
It's waiting for thee
It may take hard work
but then worthwhile things do..
Its not up to time
it's up to you
So thinking again
well that can be good
but you have to be flexible
not brittle like old wood
I realize life is anything but fair
but thats why triumph
is special and rare
it's to be cherished and enjoyed
the pluses are all thats important
the minuses don't count
so don't compare..
Now
I understand
that life can be grand
it can be simple as well
It can be joyful
it can be Hell..
It rarely gives comfort
thats for people to do..
And only time will tell
but the comfort you give
are needed to live
But Passion and pain
go hand in hand
we just have to follow the road
we didn't make the plan..
