Charlotte and Francesca

Lost in Translation meets
Bridges of Madison County

I never noticed before
The two leading ladies
In my two favorite films
Have a hole in their heart
A hole they are trying to fix
A band aid to take the pain away
One newly wed and one middle-aged
And I can feel their pain because
I have felt it, can empathize
I have had a hole in my heart
That only writing can fill
Charlotte don’t go!
Meet Francesco

Change

I do not like change
Especially when nothing is broken
I do not like fixing things
That already work

But in saying that
I tested a new theme
Just for fun
And cannot seem to revert

So here it is
And this is now
Passion through Poetry
Has a new theme

Are we lovin’ it?

(Still trying to figure out front pages and header images and taglines etc)

Hand-written

January 17, 2015January 18, 2015Vonita 10 Comments

I wrote a letter to my love
And sprayed it all with scent
Poor letter though did not go well
For hand write could not be read
He tried his best, he really did
It’s not his fault at all
So after hours, minutes, days and nights
A phone call I received
To thank me for the letter sweet
Even though it made no sense
He tried to make out all the words
But could I read it back to him?

Serenity

The calmness after the storm
Ceremony over, whirlwind done
I am married, I am loved
No longer walking this life alone
Peace and calm and serenity
Before our new life, and all that will be
Creates whirlwinds to carry us along
Our path of life and love and union

What is Love?

January 17, 2015Vonita 4 Comments

Love is the respect you feel
When treated with respect

Love is the warmth inside
When treated with desire

Love is the hope you feel
When treated with dignity

Love is the self-esteem that builds
When accepted for the self within

Love is the humility you feel
When treated better than you act

Love is the love you feel
When loved for who you are

To Not Kill

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Agree to Disagree.”

I have a friend
We disagree on almost everything
But most of all we disagree
On life and parenting
To keep the peace and a friend
I practice tact, diplomacy
So instead of going for the kill
I’ve learnt to be quite still

Finesse

With flair, I will live my life
With finesse, I will write my soul’s poetry
With passion, I will love with my heart’s whole

Brain Power Haiku

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Brain Power.”

If my brain unlocked
Quite suddenly, leaving me
Speechless, I would find

Myself wanting to
Write about it, but without
More time, I could not

Weaving Words

January 14, 2015January 15, 2015 1 Comment

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Connect the Dots.”

The dedicated words which writers use
Are weaved together to inform
To resonate or to amuse
Stories and poems and fiction and tales
Gifts to the world from those who would write
To offer company or perhaps to fix any ails
So if you be lonely and need something to do
And have some time, a few minutes to spare
Pick up a book and read, any closest to you

First line taken from pg 82 line 3 of
Shakespeare The Sonnets
