"The advice I like to give young artists, or really anybody who’ll listen to me, is not to wait around for inspiration. Inspiration is for amateurs; the rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightning to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself. Things occur to you. If you’re sitting around trying to dream up a great art idea, you can sit there a long time before anything happens. But if you just get to work, something will occur to you and something else will occur to you and something else that you reject will push you in another direction. Inspiration is absolutely unnecessary and somehow deceptive. You feel like you need this great idea before you can get down to work, and I find that’s almost never the case." - Chuck Close[/color]

Absence is to love as wind is to a flame. It extinguishes the little, it ignites the great.
Life is a test. It is only a test. Had this been real life you would have have been instructed where to go and what to do.
When i argue with reality I lose.....But only 100% of the time.
Once you've decided on a course of action, only you can finish it. As long as you remember that, there's nothing you can't accomplish.

No trial is too tough for God. ^_^
No trial is too tough to handle
When you've got God on your side
His love and power are awesome
He always wants the best for us.
Satan will try to defeat us
But even he can't defeat God
Have faith in our Lord Jesus Christ
For nothing is beyond Him.
Let Him fill you with His love
And guide you on your journey
He is always there for us
His beloved children
He will purify our hearts
And watch over us always
So that we will never fall
Even during our toughest trials.
Another poem that was inspired by God. Hope you all like it

"Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today."

Life is not about us using God for our purposes, but about Him using us for His purposes.
Faith is not creating a false reality, but acknowledging God's promises for us.
The dreams I dream for you
Are deeper than the ones your clinging to
Let the old dreams die
Like stars that fade from view
And take the cup I offer
And drink deeply of the dreams I dream for you

Love Needs No Reason
It's time, i think to add another poem. I hope you all like it. Also this post is my 400th one. Yay! 
Love needs no reason.
When you give your all
With no reservations
God gives you everything
Give with all your heart
And you will recieve
What you gave and more
Remember these words
If you give nothing
You'll recieve nothing
Give and you shall recieve
Many blessings from God
Show love to others
Do many good deeds
Be there for others
This is what God commands
This one was also inspired by God. Isn't He good?

In Community Lies Strength
I haven't been in this thread for a long time now. It's time for another poem. It's amazing how we can procrastinate on things and next thing we know it's been years since we did something we really wanted to do. Procrastination. Perhaps that could be the theme of my next poem?
In Community Lies Strength
Do you know what it's like to be alone?
What it's like to have no friends at all?
To have everyone ignore you
Even when you really need their help?
What it's like when you're bullied harshly
and when everyone joins the bullies
So it's you and only you, alone
Praying for someone, anyone, to help?
Bullies attack the weakest of us
Only when we're totally alone.
Preying on our solitude and fear
Even when there's a crowd watching us
And we ask, "Why? Why don't they help?"
Then someone does, someone steps forward
And stands up to the bullies for you,
Someone who is strong when you are weak.
The euphoria when someone helps.
When they show they care enough to help
Have you ever known that feeling?
When you know you've got at least one friend.
And how much better community is.
It just rakes one friend to make your day,
But a community is stronger.
When you know you are loved. That's the best
Hell is isolation, loneliness.
Heaven is friendship community.
Showing random kindness to others
Making the whole world a better place.
Nothing beats a close community.
Together we can change the whole world.
Like Jesus Christ did with the needy
And the poor and sinners everywhere.
Jesus was only a single man.
Imagine what all of us could do!
Within community lies our strength.
So please, be there for someone today.
It's been so long I'm not sure how good this one is. What do you think?

Why? I'll keep writing what i do best.
I will write and post at least one poem each week from now on.
I'm reluctant to make that promise and even more reluctant to actually say it publicly like this in case i forget or procrastinate or simply don't manage it, but i need to make writing my priority. If I don't I might end up looking back at my life when I'm older and thinking, I wish i had written more and helped people with my writing.

When i argue with reality I lose.....But only 100% of the time.

Very nice writing, Kura; I especially liked 'Trust in the Lord' and 'When You Know Love'. The one about the wolfpack, too, I really understand; especially the verse
Ooo... your poems get better as I go down the list. ^_^
This one was really cool. ^_^
Wow... page two is even better still. You make some really great points which speak to me -from where I've been to where I'm at. 'Love needs no reason'... 'In Community Lies Strength' (Love that title, by the way)... really excellent, Kura. ^_^
I really like your latest one -'In Community Lies Strength'; I can really feel what it's like. You explain it well -I think we've all come across bullies, and have so longed for someone to stand up for us. When that person stands up against the bullies in the poem, it really touched my heart; guess it's something I wish to see happen for more people.
The last time i found a pack of wolves
They never ever accepted me
I couldnt take that cruelty again
So i wandered away from the new pack
Ooo... your poems get better as I go down the list. ^_^
What wonders will tommorow bring?
Happiness or deep sorrow?
Blessings anew from the Lord?
Another trial to test my faith?
Why worry about tommorow,
When today has it's own troubles?
Try not to live in the future
nor the past, but in the present
Have you ever wondered,
Why it is called the present
The answer is obvious.
The present is God's gift.
This one was really cool. ^_^

I'll do it tomorrow, dear.
I'll do it tomorrow, dear.
I'll do it tomorrow, dear.
The kids need to be put to bed.
Not tonight, dear. I'm too tired.
But that's what you said yesterday.
I know. I know. Stop whining.
I said I'll do it tomorrow.
I'll keep my promise darling,
Or is it that you don't trust me?
It's not that I don't trust you.
It's just, it's always tomorrow.
Why don't you do something now?
The kids and I need you today.
I'll be here tomorrow, dear,
But today I just want to sleep.
I've had a long day at work.
You do understand don't you, dear?
Of course I do. I'm tired too,
But our kids should come first darling.
You might be here tomorrow,
But I'm not sure if I will be.
You can't mean you're going to leave?
I always thought we were happy!
Another man! It must be!
Why else would you want to leave me?
Can't you listen? It's not that.
You're always saying tomorrow.
You only do your work today.
The kids and I are always last!
I have to repeat myself?
I'm too tired to do that tonight.
All I want to do is sleep.
So let's stop the argument now.
Fine! Go to sleep if you want!
I'm going to sort the kids out.
Don't expect me to be here
When you wake up in the morning.
She was gone the next morning.
The divorce notice came later.
That day I didn't know why.
Now I know, but it's too late now.
This poem features a married couple in an argument. I thought how could I write a poem on procrastination effectively? What would be the best way to write it? A college kid failing his exams because he always procrastinated or something else?. I'll do it tomorrow just came up in my mind as a good description of procrastination so I decided to use that and this poem is the result.

Absence is to love as wind is to a flame. It extinguishes the little, it ignites the great.

Stretching oneself is a good exercise that can improve one's strengths. Plus, you may discover new strengths in the process.Kura Ookami wrote:Why? I'll keep writing what i do best.aule wrote:good job there man
but you shold try a different style of writing that would be cool may like a hiku or a non stanza version
"In Community Lies Strength" has good messages, but you might try showing instead of telling when you write.
In "I'll do it tomorrow, dear." try having the second person speak in italics to make the conversation more clear. Also, until the last stanza the poem has been completely dialogue; try offsetting it somehow. Otherwise, good message.

[i]Two vast and trunk-less legs of stone stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, half sunk, a shattered visage lies. Round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare the lone and level sands stretch far away. On the pedestal these words are inscribed:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!â€
