I do, however, hereby nominate the Captain to be the LoT's official Poet Laureate.

(That means you have to bring the cheese and crackers to the meets, btw.)

a living dream
a caress
a kiss
a fire
a man
a woman
a fragrance
a world shaken
a moment to live forever

an impromptu xmas poem

ever wonder why it is
we hurt ourselves so bad?
ever wonder why it is
we make ourselves so sad?

we talk ourselves into our pain
we find ways to be down
when state of mind and attitude
are oft the things that make us frown

good thoughts good cheer
a smile or grin
are easy things to do
it can make the difference in our lives
and other peoples too

so for a change I'll give a smile
and hold my good thoughts near
and be thankful for the things that make
this special time of year

the holidays are what we make them
so go out, have some fun
celebrate, its not too late
to enjoy a day in the sun

go shop or gift or decorate
its really up to you
a merry xmas to you all
and an happy new year too

if the world could be turned
back upon itself
if time could be placed
back up on the shelf

would I go back and change
all the things that Ive done?
to have just one more day
for us in the sun

to hold your young hand
just one final time
and remind us again
of how once you were mine

would it change what is now?
could it change all the wrong?
if we both could go back
and sing just one more song

would it lead here again?
and bring back all the pain
or could we go right
instead of left again

if I had the power
you know I would try
to make it all better
to make the days fly

but that powers not in me
though I wish it were true
so I'll just say I love you
and hope you still love me too

Capt Jack · 01-20-2006, 10:53 AM

hand in hand to the very edge of eternity we’ve journeyed
at long last, standing together, staring into the singular sunset
the choices are clear
the answers are not

to hold you here with me
together mired in all the pain and sorrow we’ve carried for so very long
or allow you to fly into the endless night alone
free at last from the ties that bind

to hope against hope to once again walk with you in the sunlight
still carrying with us the weight of this burden as we continue on this endless winding road
or loose the load from your wings and let you fly away
condemning myself for eternity for surrendering you to the dark

Shakespeare’s words thunder in my heart and mind
to be
or not to be

I wish the answers were as plain

and so it has come at last
unavoidable undeniable unbelieveable
a familiar scent floating in an empty room
is what remains of all I once knew

an alien landscape surrounds me now
resplendent with with unopened doors and roads not taken
seen now appearing through the waning angelic mist
of a world that now fades like the waking from a dream

and so the journey begins

Beautiful...sorrow and hope: timeless! (Hugs)
