Cryzilla - I loved your choice! It's officially one of my favorite poems.
It's one of the few poems I have any respect for. Robert Frost has a few I like, too, though. But, yeah, I'm not really a poetry person.

I have no idea why I think in such a voice....
pages turned... Life days spent, and earned.
Written by hand, out of a mind.
That listens for our own kind...

HeavenLeighthis is fantastic.
It sort of flows and rolls, like a river or a sphere.
I am honoured by your kind words. In fact I gathered my children around, to have them read your compliment. They all think I'm a bit mad, and simple, and couldn't believe that someone else, would understand,

There are so many good ones out there...
Because I Could Not Stop For Death by Emily Dickinson:
Because I could not stop for Death—
He kindly stopped for me—
The Carriage held but just Ourselves—
And Immortality.
We slowly drove—He knew no haste
And I had put away
My labor and my leisure too,
For His Civility—
We passed the School, where Children strove
At Recess—in the Ring—
We passed the fields of Gazing Grain—
We passed the Setting Sun—
Or rather—He passed Us—
The Dews drew quivering and chill—
For only Gossamer, my Gown—
My Tippet—only Tulle—
We paused before a House that seemed
A Swelling of the Ground—
The Roof was scarcely visible—
The Cornice—in the Ground—
Since then—'tis Centuries—and yet
Feels shorter than the Day
I first surmised the Horses' Heads
Were toward Eternity—

I made this litte poster/image/poem last year. Seeing this fourm I thought id dig it out. I found it on the last page of my photobucket! Its not very good, kinda childish and quite 'common' in the way it reads and such, but I think its cute.

My favourite poet is Inger Hagerup from Norway
I just can't find any poems translated in English
She wrote the most beautiful poems about love, life and death
I'll keep searching and post one if I find some.
Edited because of stupid mistake.

Ok found one
Love itself must also die
Inger Hagerup ; Martin Allwood
Kill me, she said, for death must
master us anyhow.
Rather than living deserted by life
I will desert it now.
Love itself must also die
and never return again.
Love, let me lead our way,
let me be dead by then!

Yup that's about how poetic I will get too.
Five little monkeys
Sitting in a tree
Teasing Mr. Crocodile,
"You can't catch me."
Along came Mr. Crocodile,
Quiet as can be
SNAP
...
You get the picture.
I can rhyme but that not very well, so I don't even try to write poems.

And another one
I trust
Inger Hagerup ; Martin Allwood
I trust in many things. In blood. In fire.
I trust paths that drown us in mire.
I trust in dreams that makes us far aspire
I blindly walk. Oh, do not lead me home.
Let darkness lead me on where'er I roam.
There is a door ajar in pitch-black gloam.
Some place where spirit and the body meet,
some place where time itself is at my feet
-surely there my heart the fire would greet? -
But heed me not. The words I speak today
are dangerous prophets who only lead you astray.
You must not think I am the one I say.
I think they're more beautiful in Norwegian. She was a genius with words.

Poetry of life
lies within sight.
hidden, deep within
heart swells pride
Children, life, home
none such beauty.
You have love.
Written, felt better.
Love is birthright...
Right to give
better yet, share.
Torment can wait.....
(unfinished)
Got sad, and can't finish..........

tear left dry.
rain to cry.
dripping to explain.
Child resided within.
Innocence lost, hurt..
Begging plea find...?
A parent mine.
May I be,
A baby please?
