Strangly enough those are the only kind I don't write... I've never been to good at nature poems but then again I haven't tried to write on in a while I'll bet if I tried now I could. I write I like I think about the good and bad sides of life. The poems I write most are ones about abuse and love. Here's the first love poem I ever wrote (I wrote this when I was 12!!)

Empty Words

He says he loves me
He says he cares
My stomachs doing summersaults

But deep inside I wonder…
Are these just empty words?

He says he’ll be with me for all time
And that he’ll always just be mine
My eyes are sparkling with the joy

But deep inside I wonder…
Are these just empty words?

Am I just a toy I wonder…
Something to pass the time
I can't help but dread
When he talks about his ex girlfriend

Even though
My heart says no
I can’t help but wonder…
Is he trying to get her back?
Was he ever really mine?
Or was that twinkle in his eyes
Just her in the back of his mind
Is he thinking of me or her
Now tears start to fill my eyes
And my vision becomes a blur

Now as the tears start to flow down my face
Deep inside I wonder…
Were they ALWAYS
Just empty words

Very deep! And at 12?
Was this about a real relationship?

No it wasn't... it was just something that popped into my head. This was the first poem I ever wrote. Most of my poems are like that... just ideas that come into my head. Everyone always thinks they are about me cause and I qoute from someone who critiqued me "there's so much emotion in them".

Thanks for sharing your first ever poem.
I read you were publishing some of your work, is it all poems?

BiWiccanAndProud

ya I'm writting two novels ("The Wars of Elf Wood" and "Arra") but I'm also writting a poetry book with all my poems over the years and I'm almost done... it's 66 pages long right now. I'm trying to hunt down some old poems and write new ones and I'm having teachers critique my poems so I know what I need to change if I need to. The last thing I'll need to do when I'm done putting it together is paint the cover. A friend of mine is going to help me get it published after that.

WoW!Impressive.

really?

Depressed in MO

I used to write poems all the time when I was younger (age 10-15). I have never been really great at art (except for maybe the imagination in my head). Nowadays, my creative works consist of finger painting with my children, or coloring in a Spongebob coloring book with my children.

My oldest daughter brings home her art work from school and she is very bright I must say. We usually end up framing her work because it is so nice and neat. If I had the means to put up on this site, I would. Unfortunately, I only have access to AMHD at work.
