Autumn

Autumn rains blow.
Autumn rains flow.
Leaves slowly fall.
Dead reeds waver.
Blue water. Surface: Smooth paper.
Near waterfalls, schools of fish leap.
My lover standing where the bank is steep


Your Name

I wrote your name in the sky,
but the wind blew it away.
I wrote your name in the sand,
but the waves washed it away.
I wrote your name in my heart,
and forever it will stay.

Daddy, Don't Go
by Stacey P. Wilson

When I was a little girl
You'd bounce me on your knee
You'd tell me I was pretty
And I always tried to please

When I had a bad day
It was you I'd go running to
You'd tell me it would be alright
...I believed in you

I remember, I was fourteen
The first time you left
All your clothes in the closet were gone
I couldn't catch my breath

I fell to my knees and cried
I cried, "Daddy, don't go!
I've been loving you all my life
You're my hero, don't you know?
If I were better, would you stay?
Please, Daddy, don't go."

When I was in high school
We talked alot on the phone
You'd say you were proud of me
That I'd never be alone.

Through those years when you were gone
I shed many a tear
All the things you were missing
I just wanted you near.

I remember I was all grown up
The next time you went away
You'd be gone for a few years
You had a debt to pay.

I fell to my knees and cried.
I cried, "Daddy, don't go!
I've been loving you all my life
You're my hero, don't you know?
If you were better, could you stay?
Please, Daddy, don't go."

While you were gone, I got married
On your birthday - no accident
I wish you'd have walked me down the aisle
But it was with Mom I went.

While you were gone, I had a son
And now I bounce him on my knee
I tell him that he's handsome
And it's me he tries to please.

Now you're home, so close to me
We were making up for lost time
But the doctor says you're not doing well
And I hold your hand in mine.

I sit by your bed and cry
I cry, "Daddy, don't go!
You've been leaving me all my life
You're my hero, don't you know?
I can't stand to lose you,
Please, Daddy, don't go."

When I First Saw You....
I Was Afraid To Meet You...
When I First Met You...
I Was Afraid To Kiss You...
When I First Kiss You...
I Was Afraid To Love You...
But Now That I Love You...
I'm Afraid To Lose You...


==============================================


I See You Everyday
by Vincent Paul Gonzales

I see you everyday,
I wonder what to say?
You never stop to say "Hello"
You're always busy, and 'have to go'.

You leave the room,
Inside I cry,
Because I'd give anything to
have you in my life.

In my dreams, I dream of you,
I wonder if there is anything I can do,
I wonder if you feel the same,
Or if this is just a solitare game?.

My heart soars above the trees,
Whenever I see you and you smile at me,
I watch the sunset... wondering,
If ever We shall be?

If A Dog Were Your Teacher


If a dog were your teacher
These are some of the lessons you might learn...

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them
Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face
to be pure ecstasy

When it's in your best interest
practice obedience
Let others know when they've invaded your territory
Take naps and stretch before rising
Run romp and play daily

Thrive on attention and let people touch you
Avoid biting, when a simple growl will do
On warm days stop to lie on your back on the grass
On hot days drink lots of water and lay under a shady tree
When you're happy dance around and wag your entire body

No matter how often you're scolded
don't buy into the guilt thing and pout
run right back and make friends

Delight in the simple joy of a long walk
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm
Stop when you have had enough
Be loyal
Never pretend to be something you're not

If what you want lies buried
dig until you find it
When someone is having a bad day
be silent .....
...sit close by.

...and nuzzle them gently.

Letting Go

But Greatly Appreciated!


To let go doesn't mean to stop caring;
It means I can't do it for someone else.
To let go is not to cut myself off...
It's the realization that I can't control another...
To let go is not to enable,
but to allow learning from natural consequences.
To let go is to admit powerlessness,
which means the outcome is not in my hands.
To let go is not to try and change or blame another,
I can only change myself.
To let go is not to care for, but to care about.
To let go is not to fix, but to be supportive.
To let go is not to judge,
but to allow another to be a human being.
To let go is not to be in the middle arranging all the outcomes,
but to allow others to affect their own outcomes.
To let go is not to be protective,
It is to permit another to face reality.
To let go is not to deny, but to accept.
To let go is not to nag, scold, or argue,
but to search out my own shortcomings and correct them.
To let go is not to adjust everything to my desires,
but to take each day as it comes and cherish the moment.
To let go is not to criticize and regulate anyone,
but to try to become what I dream I can be.
To let go is not to regret the past,
but to grow and live for the future.
To let go is to fear less and love more.
(Pretty good advice, huh? ;-)

I Am There</span>
James Dillet Freeman


<span style="color:#FF0000"> Do you need Me ?
I am there.
You cannot see Me, yet I am the light you see by.
You cannot hear Me, yet I speak through your voice.
You cannot feel Me, yet I am the power at work in your hands.

I am at work, though you do not understand My ways.
I am at work, though you do not understand My works.
I am not strange visions. I am not mysteries.

Only in absolute stillness, beyond self, can you know Me
as I AM, and then but as a feeling and a faith.

Yet I am here. Yet I hear. Yet I answer.
When you need ME, I am there.
Even if you deny Me, I am there.
Even when you feel most alone, I am there.
Even in your fears, I am there.
Even in your pain, I am there.

I am there when you pray and when you do not pray.
I am in you, and you are in Me.
Only in your mind can you feel separate from Me, for
only in your mind are the mists of "yours" and "mine".
Yet only with your mind can you know Me and experience Me.

Empty your heart of empty fears.
When you get yourself out of the way, I am there.
You can of yourself do nothing, but I can do all.
And I AM in all.

Though you may not see the good, good is there, for
I am there. I am there because I have to be, because I AM.

Only in Me does the world have meaning; only out of Me does the world take form; only because of ME does the world go forward.
I am the law on which the movement of the stars
and the growth of living cells are founded.

I am the love that is the law's fulfilling. I am assurance.
I am peace. I am oneness. I am the law that you can live by.
I am the love that you can cling to. I am your assurance.
I am your peace. I am ONE with you. I am.

Though you fail to find ME, I do not fail you.
Though your faith in Me is unsure, My faith in you never
wavers, because I know you, because I love you.

Beloved, I am there.

ALONE

You wake up in the morning,
And go on through your day.
You do the things you always do,
In much the same old way.
Around, all kinds of people,
But when the day is done,
As darkness falls around you,
You go through life alone.


The friends you find all drift away,
Like leaves do in the fall.
You never seem to understand,
The reasons for it all.
I've seen the look upon your face,
The teardrops in your eye,
When love that someone gave to you,
You tossed aside to die.


You're going through your life alone,
And the saddest part must be,
You do not seem to realize,
How sweet your life could be.
To have someone to care for you,
And stay right by your side,
To fill your empty heart with love,
Each and every night.


So, lying in your bed tonight,
Keep this thought in your mind.
If it is really love you want,
It's been here all the time.
And as you see the days go by,
You'll never see again.
All the ones who cared for you,
And love... that might have been.

And if you're ever looking,
For someone who could be,
A lover and a friend to you,
Through all eternity.
You have to look no further,
Than right here by your side,
For I'm the one who loves you,
And will until I die.

Ko biết kái này có gọi là thơ ko nữa nhưng em post lên cho mọi người koi thử nha

Thanks for the little things!
Little stones make big mountains,
Little steps can cover miles,
Little acts of loving-kindness...

Little words can soothe big troubles
Little hugs can dry big tears,
Little candles light the darkness,
Little memories last for years...

Little dreams can lead to greatness,
Little victories lead to success
It's the little things in life
That brings the greatest happiness...

When I think about all the little things,
Warm thoughts of you always come to mind
And all the joy that friendship brings,
Always and forever sharing it online

(Đức Nguyên)

It's Not Too Late </span> Ron Atchison


<span style="color:#FF0000">It's not too late... the angel said.
Even though the world's a mess...
Even though you're not that young...
Even though you've made mistakes and have been afraid
It's not too late...
And then I saw the world through the angels' eyes...
I saw the colors I could paint
The bridges I could build
The lives that I could touch
The dreams that could still come true
And it became very clear to me...
That it's not too late.

Think Big </span>
Walter D. Wintle (Adapted)


<span style="color:#FF0000">If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you won’t.
If you like to win, but don’t think you can,
It’s almost a cinch that you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’ve lost,
For out in the world you’ll find
Success begins with a person’s will;
It’s all in the state of mind.

For many a game is lost
Before even a step is run
And many a coward fails
Before his work is begun.

Think big and your deed will grow;
Think small and you will fall behind.
Think that you can and you will;
It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think that you are out-classed, you are;
You’ve got to think high to rise.
You’ve got to be sure of yourself
Before you can win the prize.

Life’s battles don't always go
To the strongest or fastest man
But sooner or later the person who wins
Is the person who thinks she can.

Life is Beauty


Life is beauty, admire it.

Life is bliss, taste it.

Life is a dream, realize it.

Life is a challenge, meet it.

Life is a duty, complete it.

Life is a game, play it.

Life is a promise, fulfill it.

Life is sorrow, overcome it.

Life is a song, sing it.

Life is a struggle, accept it.

Life is a tragedy, confront it.

Life is an adventure, dare it.

Life is luck, make it.

Life is too precious, do not destroy it.

Life is life, fight for it.

Smiling Is Infectious </span>
Author Unknown
But Greatly Appreciated!



<span style="color:#FF0000"> Smiling is infectious,
you catch it like the flu,
When someone smiled at me today,
I started smiling too.

I passed around the corner
and someone saw my grin
When he smiled I realized
I'd passed it on to him .

I thought about that smile
then I realized its worth,
A single smile, just like mine
could travel round the earth.

So, if you feel a smile begin,
don't leave it undetected
Let's start an epidemic quick,
and get the world infected!

I'm... </span></span>


I'm me
Not one of you
Not normal, average, indifferent
Not ordinary to the world
Set my ways like all of you
But just different, unique above the norm
Joyous that I'm alive
Exhilarated that I can do more
Overwhelmed that I'll be better, the Best.

Boys like to play</span>



<span style="color:#CC33CC">A heart is not a playing thing a heart is not a toy
but if u want it broken just give it to a boy.
Boys like to play with things to see what makes them run
but when it comes to kissing they do it just for fun.
Boys never give there hearts away, they play us girls for fools.
They wait until we give our hearts and then they play it cool.
You'll wonder if he is true,
one moment u will be blue.
if u get the chance to see him your heart begins to dance,
u'r life revolvs around him.
Theres nothing like romance
and then it starts to happen u worry day 'n' night.
u see my friend, your loosing him,
it never turns out right.
Boys r great though immature the price u pay is high.
He may seem sweet 'n' gorgeous
but remember he is just a guy.
Dont fall in luv with just a boy.
That takes a lot of nerve.
u see my friend u need a man to get what u deserve
so when u think that ur in love,
be carefull if u can.
Before u give ur heart away make sure that he is a man.

<div align="center">I can’t replace you</div></span>

<div align="center"><span style="color:#CC9933">I sit here alone, in front of the screen.
I'm stuck.
Why?
Is it because I still love you?
Maybe.
I want to tell you I love you, but I can't.
I want to spoil you, but I can't.
I want to write you a love letter, but I can't.
Is that why I'm writing to a screen instead of you?
Is that why instead of your hair, my fingers touch letters?
It's not the same my love, but thats all I have, the only thing I have Left of you.
I've had it with telling the computer I love you.
After all this, I'm still in front of the screen.
Stuck,alone
I love you.</div>

Puppets of pain
Hung up by strings
Always tormented
By beastly things

Puppets of pain
Blinded by light
Looking into it
Day and night

Puppets of pain
Left to die
Left to strangle
Up in the sky

Puppets of pain
Used and Abused
They feel ashamed
Broken and bruised

<div align="center">Stupid is as Stupid Does</span>
-st-


<span style="color:#FF9966">Stupid is as stupid does
That's what mother said
Stupid is as stupid does
But no one cares
Stupid is as stupid does
What do you mean?
Are you trying to say that I'm stupid?

Stupid is as stupid does
That's what they all say
Stupid is as stupid does
But we don't care
Stupid is as stupid does
What does this mean?
Are they trying to say that we're stupid?

Stupid is as stupid does
And you are
Stupid is as stupid does
Yes, you are
Stupid is as stupid does
You're a fool
Yes, I said that you're stupid</div>

My Inspirational Poem

Your presence is a present to the world
You are unqiu ang one of a kind
Your life can be what you want it to be
Take the days just one at a time.

Count your blessings not your troubles
You'll make it through whatever comes along
Wwithin you are so many answers
Understand, have courage, be strong.

Realise that it's never too late
Do ordinary things in an extraordinary way
Have health, hop and happiness
Take the time to wish upon a star.

And don't forget...
For even a day...
How Very Special You Are.
