Kiwidoc refers to my poetry as "teenage agnst crap", (Even tho I am WELL out of my teens) and I must admit... I usually write pretty morbid stuff...

At the risk of losing my reputation as a BAD-@$$...

Recently, I was asked to describe love. I decided not to think about it, and THIS is what I felt...

Once, while walking
through a field
I found a flower, and looked inside
I found you

Once, while walking
through a forest
I found a tree, and looked inside
I found you

Once, while walking
on a beach
I found a shell, and looked inside
I found you

Once, while walking
through a dream
I found my heart, and looked inside
I found you

So if in the forest look behind you, because that where the ranger is going to be

I think your reputation as a Bad @$$ is in jeopardy! You're gonna have to work hard to get it back! Maybe you should change your name from Rudedawg to.... hmmm.... let's see...... Kind, honest, friendly-dawg! ::Backs away from Rudedawg's glare:: Okay, maybe not, Rudedawg sounds better anyway! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

<h3>Riding With the Wind</h3>
As she's walking
through the clouds
with a circus smile
running wild...
- Jimmi Hendrix, Little Wing

How often I have surfed the skies,
Searching, always, for the flame gone
from my heart

How often I have walked the oceans,
Seeking, always, the stars stolen
from my heart

How often I have flown through the meadows,
Looking, always, for the flowers lost
from my heart

How often I have ridden the wind,
Longing, always, for the love torn
from my heart

Only to find it here
In the places I never searched
Only to hold it dear
In my arms, to my face

How often I have searched the world,
Riding the wind,
Needing that which is missing, still.

From my heart
