Ok...

[razorhog02]

Any of you all write poetry?

[farmasis]

I have before, but it made me feel funny. I didn't like that feeling, so I suppress it.

[razorhog02]

Hmmm....I used to...then I quit...now I am starting up again.

The feeling is funny....but my wife likes it...so it has to be ok? Right?

[razorhog02]

Here is one....you all can slam it if you want....just trying to get back into rhythm. I lost a bunch of my stuff....anyway.........


Voices

She cries in a silent voice.
Longing to feel the warmth
of the sun.
She is more than just a choice
of one.
She has feelings for you
Though you have not met.
She carries love true,
with enormous debt.
Her smile is hidden in darkness
but is as bright as can be.
Looking at you she is no less,
with a silent voice ask you to see.
Surrounded in blindness and sound
She survives on your love
Waiting for the day that giggles abound
with smiles from above.
She is more than a choice, she is you.
Longing to see the voices she already knew.

Childhood

The grass grows
between my toes
I hold tight
with all my might
From the tree
smiling with glee
We run in the sun
having lots of fun
Play in the rain
Splash in the water drain
Scape our knee
Stung by a bee
Kiss my pain
And you explain
Why we are here
Wipe my tear
Out we go
to watch the grass grow

Thanks...post away. Need the inspiration.

BTW....we are tryin'.Thats cool. Good luck to the both of you. My wife's best friend and her husband had to go the artificial rout. Sold their house and bought a cheaper one to come up with the $20K needed...they just found out she is pregnant so it worked. Now she is hoping that it is just one or two...not 3, 4, 5, or 6.

Cool. Good for them. I hope we don't have to go that route...but if we do...oh well...more than worth it. It's crazy...wanting this for so long.....that damn Creed song made me feel funny. Not sure if it is the same funny that Farmasis was talking about...but funny.

[razorhog02]

The really cool part.....I will finally get to keep my foul balls.

I was just tryin to be funny.

It does get you much needed brownie points with the wifey. That usually has good outcomes.

[insanehognutt]

The really cool part.....I will finally get to keep my foul balls.If you would wash the f'er's they wouldn't smell so bad.

[razorhog02]

If you would wash the f'er's they wouldn't smell so bad.

**** that...next you will want me to be shaving them. Is that what you want...for me to shave my fould balls? Well I ain't gonna!

Mother and child
I saw you today when you thought
of what might have been
I saw what you had bought
on the day I was to turn ten

It was not a gift to me
you know not of what to buy
A person you could never see
but sometimes makes you cry

The day I was to be born
you don't even know
You had felt the scorn
from those who knew I might show

I left as quick as I came
just a memory for one
But Mother, I hold no blame
to what you have done.

Hehe...this one time...in high school...I had a date after baseball practice and it was cold weather outside so I really didn't sweat or anything...I still had foul balls though (hehe) so I thought I could save some time and just spray some cologne on them...WOW was that ever a mistake!!!!!

[insanehognutt]

that damn Creed song made me feel funny
Don't listen to nonfiction by the black crowes around the wife:

and if we had a child I'd like a son,
not a daughter 'cause she'd be just like you
you know that will not do


That may not go over so well...you may lose all those brownie points from the poetry. I like that song though.
