Love’s Story

by Liam

Upon this page, my pen does write  

The wishes of my heart this night

Hear, love’s true words, will surely teach,  

Rise high blue skies, our hands too reach.  

  

When carved by love, words  are secure,  

And in the heart, they long endure.

My life’s peace finds, where this flame grows,  

A page alone, where kindness knows.

  

Come near you all, feel its beat,  

And from its light, our hearts sing sweet.

Now with your love, inscribe for me  

Words that will last for eternity.

So let our souls, like ink, entwine,  

To pen this story beyond space and time.

Why Poetry?

By Liam

Poetry distills the depth of human emotions into vivid language, offering clarity and catharsis. It challenges the mind, sparking creativity and critical thought. As a cultural mirror, it preserves traditions and drives social change. Poetry captures the ineffable, connecting individuals to the sublime and to each other. Through its beauty and ambiguity, it reveals the essence of humanity.

Ode to Words

by Liam

When the weight feels heavy on your mind,

And you stumble, struggling on your path,

Let kind words, like a soft breeze,

Lift you up where the sunlight shines.

They rise from that unseen, eternal source,

Where thirsty souls drink deep and find wisdom,

And in those flowing waters, you’ll be made whole,

As thoughts, like divine threads, unfold their truth.

These are not just empty words,

But woven threads of meaning, touching the soul,

Bringing you back to life’s light,

Showing how all our hearts are connected.

When trapped in the cold stare of sorrow,

Let rich colors—indigo, red, green—

Breathe life back into your spirit,

And bring back the joy that once bloomed within.

And when your thoughts drift in a dark sea,

When your mind feels worn and lost,

A path of shining moonlight will appear,

Guided by quiet words that mend your broken dreams.

Don’t let despair take over your heart,

For wisdom speaks in every fiber,

Calling you gently back to the place

Where souls are nourished in the light.

Let the earth’s abundance guide you,

The whispering wind, the steady flow of the ocean,

Wrap yourself in words, with love surrounding you,

Let their beauty protect and uplift you.

For words, born of thoughts, are never cold,

But burn with an eternal flame, pure and bold.

Poetry: A Whisper 

by Liam

Into the distance, I whisper, ”Tell me about the patience of thy art.”  

To those, who’s gaze beyond my eyes to heaven’s shore,  

And whisper soft, “Let silence play its part;  

Forbearance leads you to your deepest core.”

The path of Love, is a journey of the soul,  

A song that mind alone can’t ever sing.  

It whispers truths the heart has always known,  

Beyond the grasp of thought’s own imagining.  

So let your spirit rest in quiet grace,  

And trust the timing of the stars above.  

For patience, like an artist, finds its place,  

And paints with care your masterpiece of Love.  

In stillness, allow the wonder to unfold,  

For patience turns your leaden dreams to gold.

Poem: Pearl

by Liam

The dignity of this sorrow lies between

Your sadness and my distress.

We had those struggles,

Interludes of passion too,

Before you went your way,

Hair wavering, eyes blistered with tears.

Anger tore up the flower garden in my heart,

Leaving sorrow, or was it sadness,

Clinging letter by letter to those few resilient weeds.

We tried again and again, but our holy ground was wasted.

Sorrow’s resignation is no place to plant love,

Sadness no place to accept happiness.

Captured in distress,

Caught in the quietude,

My reflection shattered.

My soul, which mattered,

Reached out into the still pool,

Where I found this

Pearl.

Poem: Simplicity

by Liam

Suffice to say, the truth is clear,  

Simplicity lies in what’s held near.  

The more exact, the less excess,  

In simplicity, we find life’s success.  

The size of what we choose,  

Defines how we embrace or lose.  

Yet in its humble, silent grace,  

Simplicity reveals its true place.  

For in quietude, stripped of all its buzz,  

Magnificence begins to rise to rush.

A balanced art, so finely spun,  

Simplicity and grace spin into one.  

In simplicity, the heart is free,  

Let’s  dance into grace and harmony.

Strength in Focus

by Liam 

This morning’s rise, my calm begins,

A silent flame ignites within.

No tempest wild, nor shadow’s glare,

Can shake the power anchored there.

My stride is firm, each thought defined,

With patience sharp and purpose aligned.

I face the climb, through storm and steep,

For mountains yield to those who keep.

The blaze of effort never fades,

It cuts through your doubt, through dusk and haze.

By hand and heart, my path I pave,

Each step a mark, each leap brave.

No shiny prize nor fleeting grace,

Can match my strength I’ve come to embrace.

For forged in sweat my vision wide,

Rise I, unbroken, fortified.

When the night seems long and cold,

Walk with courage, sure and bold.

Not seeking ease or fleeting fame,

My lightening lites these skies with flames.
