A PINK flower

A PINK flower

Feels sad

And bad.

She admires her sister RED,

She dreams about GOLD,

She wishes to be GREEN,

And she wants to be friends with BLUE.

As she grows,

PINK is the only color her body shows,

So PINK knows

Life is NOT as perfect as a rose.

The PINK flower feels good

As soon as she understood

That

She is unique in her neighborhood.

Happy Wednesday 2 U All!   🙂 😉 😉

Sunset

Come on,

Turn off your computer,

Stop the languishing inside you,

Watch the sunset.

It lasts only for a while,

But it has an impact.

The fire behind the clouds

Invite you to change your style

And concentrate.

The beauty of this sparkling light

Won’t last long,

Please come along,

Sing your favorite song,

Allow your eyes

To be filled with tears

of love

and gentleness.

Awaken your potential,

Capture the moment

Before you move on

Thursday Poets’ Rally Week 7 (Feb 25-March 3, 2010)

Hello, Everyone:

Welcome to Thursdays Poets’ Rally week 7.

Wow, I  have so much fun in week 6, how about U?

Mission Statement:

Participants are poets who are dedicated to spend the whole day promoting and celebrating poetry. By volunteering to reach out, make positive comments or encouragements to blogs that are new, these poets demonstrate leadership capacity and become backbone of future poetry advocacy leaders and seasoned poetry readers and writers.

Meanwhile, we welcome poets who are represented as fresh poets to join our leadership group under their own wish or motivation.  We expect our group to grow and expand  so that more poets are inspired, more poems are composed and shared, and  more joy or fulfillment in poetry is discovered.

Rules:

#1: If you are a poet who is new and want to join our Thursday Poets’ Rally, comment here and let me know, I will add your on.

#2: Post a poem in your OWN blog on Thursdays.

#3: Go ahead and visit the blogs on the list, please make sure to make a minimum 12 positive comments on 12 different blogs where you have never commented before. This can be done on Thursday, or by next Thursday.

#4: Very important, please make sure to comment back when you are given comments.

#5: After you post a poem, commented a minimum 12 blogs, let me know and you will remain on the list the following week as active poets.

PS:Your link will NOT appear as participants UNLESS you commented below, I need your word of approval so that we have mutual understanding and respect upon this event. Thank U in Advance and Have FUN on the Rally!
