For My Brandi (Little Mo Knows)

There are times, (so it seems),
That "words" say nothing, (of what I mean),
And all our tears (as with dreams),
Never touch the truth, (of shortly being).

But what I know, (I`ll share with you),
You`re not alone, (you`re point of view).
Oh...

Come Nearer in Thought

With silence just behind you,
I come to turn your head.
To charm you, to calm you,
and fix these thoughts unsaid.

Relax my love, just ease my love,
and sense my drawing near.
An essence clear a fragrance pure,
a whisper you shall hear.

Match and Me

The dreams that I have each night,
Should be kept under lock and key.
The names I should give these things,
Would have to be "Match and Me".

""Match" he'd say is the devil,
So he refuses to play me the role.
But "Match" I'd say is my Angel,

Rubbing The Ring (Little Mo Knows)

A Devil you make me play with,
While I last these hours of real.
Spending the time to that hour,
To purchase the letters of words.
To hasten the time to that hour,
He's daring my "Rubbing the Ring".

A Devil you make me play with,
Who tempts...

I love the rhyme. It flows like a melody. You can dance to it. And the message is soothing...hinting at a promise of serenity.

In the past all the poems I submitted for a current contest has appeared under
"New Poems Submitted" and then after the contest is over we have a 7 day period to allow us to vote. Any other ideas? If I submitted it again for the March 2023 contest will I have to pay again. Poem Submitted was "Match and Me".

I submitted a new poem for the current contest and rec'd a e-mail confirming the submitted poem and payment. I had also promoted a previous poem and also rec'd confirmation for that and it's payment. However today I've rec'd an e-mail saying that I have not submitted anything for the current contest. Can you check this out for me? Submitted poem is entitled: "Match and Me". Promoted poem is entitled: "Rubbing the Ring" Author is: Lona L. Drum

I added a poem a few months ago but mispelled my name. As a result, this particular poem does not list with the other poems I have added. How do I change the poets name on this poem so that it can appear with my other writings?

Thank you for your kind words. I have hidden theses writings for many years. But you have inspired me to share them at this time in my life. I need someone like you to perhaps mentor me. Your poems are deep and your choice of words and rhyme are perfect. And the subject your poems cover show how how broad your mind is with understanding.

This poem says so much and reads smoothly. It reveals what a single candle's flame can reveal within a greater darkness. It's brightness overcomes the darkness and and directs your focus to it...."come, let me guide you".

Where to start. My mind is burning with the thoughts that these poems bring to mind. Such diversity, so much meaning and inspiration in all or in any of them that I have been able to read. Although I have not been able to read them all, it pleases me to know that all who have entered have confirmed to me that there are such gifted people who can bring their mind and soul together to create such beautiful verse with "thier words". Be blessed and good luck!
