…don’t be scared… (A Poem by chocolate lover)

Stop hiding your tears,
Stop hiding you pains,
I know it’s a fake smile ,
right there on your face..
*****
Trust me I care,
Trust me and just share,
What I all need is
A shining crescent moon on your face..
*****
Your eyes just can’t lie,
Your words just betray you,
C’mmon I know you better than
anyone else in the world..
*****
You gotta tell me ,
Whats wrong?
It’s there in your heart,
so what if we are apart?
*****
Cmmon just hold my hand,
and hug me tight,
Don’t be scared ,
‘Cause I know it’s right!
*****
I love to see that smile,
I love to see you giggle all night,
You are the most wonderful dream,
let your pains out and just scream…

*****

Walk away if you want,

But don’t forget I am still standing there,

‘Cause I know you are gonna come back,

don’t be scared those feelings are nothing but taunts!!
*****

Family Fridays-My Family Is Just Right 4 Me!

Oh, a family is people and
A family is love,
That’s a family.
They come in all different sizes
and different kinds,
But mine’s just right for me;
Yeah, mine’s just right for me.
I got a friend who lives
with his mom and dad,
with his brother and his sister too.
They’ve got a cat and a dog
and a pet bullfrog,
And I’m really glad they do.
Oh, a family is people and
A family is love,
That’s a family.
They come in all different sizes
and different kinds,
But mine’s just right for me;
Yeah, mine’s just right for me.
There’s a girl I know,
Who lives with her mom;
her dad lives far away.
Although she sees her parents
just one at a time,
They both love her everyday.
Oh, a family is people and
A family is love,
That’s a family.
They come in all different sizes
and different kinds,
But mine’s just right for me;
Yeah, mine’s just right for me.
I know a boy who’s new,
He just moved in.
He moved from Alabama.
And the person who’s
the head of his family,
is his loving, dear old grandma.
Oh, a family is people and
A family is love,
That’s a family.
They come in all different sizes
and different kinds,
But mine’s just right for me;
Yeah, mine’s just right for me.

Orange Leaves Fall On The Ground

Green Leaves are aging

As summer time is escaping,

My heart is pounding

Because you are coming.

Red leaves fall on the ground

As autumn is expected all around.

I decorate a room on the day

Before you arrive to stay.

Orange leaves fall on the ground

As autumn comes all around.

I fly into your arms

As you shine with your magical charms.

Brown leaves are scattered on the ground

Since harvest season is here all around.

Under the full moon, we toast,

With soft music on, we dance.

Hello, This is Thursday Poets Rally Week 2o

Poem Post.  Happy Thursday! Cheers!

😉 😉 😉

Theme Thursday/Magpie Tale-Am I fishing in The air?

He was 74  when he met her, who was a college freshman and smells like morning rose.

The university has invited him to give a talk about his life time achievements, who happens to be a Nobel Prize Winner on Literature 40 years ago when he was a young professor in the United States.  On the day of his arrival, this girl greets him and gives him a hug, a bunch of flowers.  He likes her a lot, the way any male would feel when they meet the most beautiful girl in the world.

His name is Patrick Young.  He and his wife, Winnie Young have been married for more than 50 years.  They have  been through thin and think together. When he was a Ph. D candidate at a southern university in America, his wife gave up her job back in their home country and went to the U. S. to support him.  He is very different from other young fellows, he has bad tempers and always seek something fresh in life, yet Winnie tolerated him, and did not pursue her own graduate studies until he became a full professor who has published more than 100 influential articles speaking of how poverty and ignorance impact human development…After He won noble prize in literature, he was everywhere in the media around the world. He has enjoyed these for only a short period of time, then after their youngest son graduated from well known university, Patrick ands Winnie decide to go back to their home country to stay. He missed hometown food, he missed peaceful walks and thus there they were, back to native country and lived in a countryside house with their pet

Boot the cat.

“What am I thinking? Am I fishing in the air?” Patrick frowns when he misses her, the sunshine girl from his visit in college.

His wife is very sick at a hospital, he has become less patient about what’s going to happen, losing his beloved wife, of 52 years of marriage.

It happens when it is ready.

Six months later, Winnie died at hospital at the age of 71.

Patrick is shocked. He does love her, he has never betrayed her while their life time marriage.  Now she is gone, their kids are grown and gone, what is he going to do?

Due to his fame, he has received thousands of hundreds letters, gifts, postcards, and so on from all over the world. Then, on that Saturday evening, he has noticed a letter addressed to him from there, the university, the sunshine girl, … he could barely recall her name.

“Dear Professor Young:

This is Iris Kong, I am a secret admire of yours. I am sorry that you have lost your beloved wife. I have read all of your published articles and books. I have a question: I am majoring in English, May I translate one of your books into English? I would love to hear from you.

Iris Kong.”

Patrick’s heart jumps.  He does not know why, he wanted to say YES… and he did.

Back and forth, they exchanged opinions for a few months.

Literature people are full of ambitions and dreams. Iris needs further explanations when she is not sure about certain content of Patrick’s work.  Thus the communication involves memories, inner struggles,  dreams, and hopes of Patrick…Iris is excited to discover such a rich and talented soul.

They begin to write poems and trade praising their passion for life…

They begin to write notes caring and encouraging each other….

They start to call each other and talk on the phone for hours…

They want to meet each other, but when? What does it mean?

….

When he is 83, she is 27, they meet. He has grown older, she has become more mature and looks like an elegant lotus ever since they meet 9 years ago.  But age does not gap them, very naturally, they hold hands and embrace each other like young hot couples in love.

After a month, he formally proposes and she agrees to marry him.

News spread like the release of a rocket, people from all over the world are shocked, this world famous professor has gone crazy, he marries a woman who is 55 years younger than he is…what kind of love life could it be? How is she going to cope because it seems like they could not have children? Is their love real?

Patrick and Iris choose to ignore anything coming their way.  They only listen to music,talk about their favorite subject poetry, and think about how or what they shall do to write, promote, and enhance the quality of literature in a global sense.

They remain married until today, you only see them smile and holding hands in news…
