I Write Poetry

Distant Memories
by: Rob Paquin

Like a distant memory
Floating across a dream

Every moment taken
Is another endless scene

Replaying like an echo
In a never ending stream

To awaken all the inner thoughts
That reside in me.

Like that fire's flickered sparkle
Sitting behind her eyes

With a thousand tiny cherubs
Flying through her skies

And like that smile upon her face
That never tells the lie

There lies a million distant memories
Of another time gone bye

Tell me how this makes you feel?

Where is this moment when it has passed us by?
Where is this breath, when we can no longer sigh?
Our future is NOW and this moment is but a treasured -past.
Let us carefully plan our memories.
How quickly where we are is where we've been.
Forever isn't just forever anymore.
And one lifetime will never be enough to spend with -you.

Hi. I'm not much of a critic. I write a lot of garbage. I don't often read other people's poetry. I'm always worried that pieces of other people's stuff will make it's way into my stuff.

The above is cool. Evoking thoughts of love and stuff. Love is another thing I don't know a lot about either.

Anyway, thanks for reading and commenting. Sorry I wasn't more helpful

And Another one of mine

I was dreaming-
I was caught up believing in fairy tales.
I was lost creating my own stories.

I was dreaming-
For but a moment able to create a reality
so clear with eyes closed...
I was dreaming-
Clearly breathing your air and feeling
your touch.

I was dreaming-
Not seeing your face yet our lips touched
and the tear that fell

I was dreaming-
The warm wet streamed down my cheek.
And I realized the tear was not my own.
And I was afraid to open my eyes and you’d
be gone.
Because it was then I knew
You were dreaming
too.

In The End


by: Rob Paquin

And in the end, when I look back
To see my beaten, worn out track
To see all that has come before
The many faces I adored
Will my feelings still turn Black

And as the end begins for me
I look forward to what will be
To stand outside the Heaven's gates
to wonder if I died too late
Will I be set free

And with the end now set in stone
An ending where I die alone
Without a worry, nor a care
for all the adventures I did dare
shall I find my home

And with my end now forgone
with many dreams now withdrawn
crumbled pieces of a life
that never seemed to go quite right
my soul was gladly pawned

WOW! You are good. You have the rhythm so perfect. I feel a good poem needs to move. It needs motion. And YOU have given it LIFE.

Oh so poignant and it resonated within me.

I love reading poetry. Especially when it moves. And yours does move. Thank you for sharing.

Dancer of Light

by: Rob Paquin



See the twirling dancer girl
Dancing in the rain
Laughing at the inner hurt
and smiling through the pain



See her spinning faster now
Despite the molten chains
That seek to bind her soul to thoughts
That her happiness might be restrained


Yet she keeps on dancing
Her steps measured and maintained
If you watch her dancing closely
You'll see her radiance remains


The Canon so contemporary
It may be hard to ascertain
Applied to her execution
All Dynamically Sustained


In unison with her own self
An inner light, life cannot stain
Her gorgeous nature overwhelming
Retrograde Legato to my brain
