Announcing The results of the Poll

The second was searching for self and third was Glass Houses…I have got one poem into Decaying thoughts. S0 there will not be a listing for Forgotten Knowledge this week on Saturday thoughts.

The Usual poll

Okay I usually do a poll when I hit 50+ poems in a volume. I always pick 5 options. Pick your favorite for my next volume. I will go with the one that gets the most votes…Due to my surgery I may or may not be longer getting to the new volume…not sure here. either way I will know which one to start next.

My Response Is:

Here I sit for all to hear
Singing my history,
In hopes that I am not the only one
that learns lessons from it.

for forgotten history is repeated,
and repeated history is nothing but tears.
So, I will sing it as loudly as my voice allows.
I will sing it as often as I may...
And I will hope that I am strong enough
to keep the memories alive
and history at bay.

My Response is:

Perhaps the world has forgotten
the simple pleasures of laying back
watching dragons in flight.

children still dream of them,
so easily as if the dragons 
are solid and real...

so why have adults forgotten?

my response is :

a house with no foundation
falls in so quickly...
so too does the soul 
without ego fail.

We need to build 
a foundation,
stable and true...
so that with time
we know the ability 
to face the truth.

Here’s My response:

I see the rage monster 
you try to hide,
And I wonder if the monster
as you see it 
is not but an injured animal within.

Injured animals strike
at anything within reach.
And as I refuse to leave your side...
Well perhaps you are not the monster
you think you are...

*note Right now this is sitting in the Kissed by Verse volume. I am not positive it fits the theme but I am also unsure it does not. My mind may change before publication of that volume.
