Five short poems.

Just words.

                               War
The war is over.
The guns locked away.
The soldiers are resting.
Youth and eyes burned out by war.
No-one won.


                                Miss you
I'm missing you.
I whispered to the falling sun in the west.
The raising moon shed a tear for the lonely lover.

                             
                              Moonlight
My moonlight confession,
whispered words to the moon and the stars.
Words that will perish into the western breezes.
Scarce confessions lost to the unknown and sober places.


                             Awaken
She submits and she releases.
The Wintry moon awaken,
splendor of love come alive.
Blushing beauty found the essence of love.


                        Majestic
Majestic places,
Open ranges, vast forest and wild and untamed oceans.
The gift of Nature to the wise man.


                     Thank you for reading.

May be the war has been ov'r but I guess, still... people ain't fully come outta their s***s. I just read a update, a couple of seconds earlier before reading your this poetry, that British Beauty's been killed in Tunisian attack...

Here's a link to visit that news:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/11703138/British-girl-believed-to-have-been-killed-in-terror-attack.html

... It's way far to worth someone's life, people ain't even getting understand the value of their own lives. It's bad.. even this's shame that still... at some places, the war's just.. seemed not to be done. Hope you're aware of Charleston tragedy that just happened to some people a couple of weeks earlier and now this Tunisian attack. This's shame.. really very shame. Your poetry made me writing these all into the review so shared it!

I'm aware of this world. So much violence and hate. Here in the USA. We started with hate and separation and never stopped. I believe best cure for this world. Civil people stay out of countries that are nuts. I live in a city. Here in Detroit. A thousand plus murdered yearly. Maybe we need old values. One parent at home and quit selling and giving weapons to terrorist. This mess was create by Bush and other bad leaders. How to stop the foolishness and killing? I don't know. Does come a point where a world war will come and we all will lose. Obama supplies the Middle east war. We are paying for bad leadership.

Here's a Carly's twitter page:

You may kindly visit her blogs either if you need to read anything or 'bout her work. (find the link on her profile).

I guess, you're right. I ain't know much 'bout Bush but Mr. Obama's pretty good... at what he just doing.. as far as I know 'bout him or get from what he does for people. The war's never ending, no matter for 'bout how long it's already being done!! Violence's became a remedy to people who think that by destroying other people, they can live for long, but a real nice truth's, they even put their own life at the edge of death. What a stupidity it is! But it's a stupidity only to us not for 'em. It's a good thing for 'em even this's why they love doing all of 'tis s***s! Anyway... May God bless this world!!

I have written many poems and story on people killed. Red cross workers and volunteered killed. Brake my heart. I believe if we quit spending money that goes to terror and giving money to terrorist supported places. It will stop. Must stop the flow of money. Carly was another lost to hate and separation. Time to punish the men who supply the terror. Even a President if necessary. Guns are not the reason for murder. Soldiers are just tools for war. The men who supply the gun and money need to be punished. They are the Beserkers for war. Destroying whole cities for a small group of men. Is not logical. Poor Carly is in my prayers. It is sad we live in a world where no-one is safe. I traveled the Middle East and I learn. The common people just want to live and survive.

[Adam Adams]

Exact! Everyone wants to "survive" first and then "live" second. Terrorists do the same but in their own way. They also want to survive and live but sadly, they've chosen a very wrong path to tremble 'pon so, I guess... encounter's best meal for 'em. Hit the trigger. Get down the jigger! Pour all the bullets deep into their head so as even their death could make 'em feel how it feels when everything gets changed in a wisp of smoke! ~ Fireball ~

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree and we have trained killers for this. I served in the Army and I was with the light divisions. There are men who are trained. Don't need a division of soldiers to kill the terrorist. Just solve the problem and don't discuss it. Great countries just do. England and Germany had attacks and they fixed the problem. Do it properly and quietly.

[Jane Taylor Hardy]

Wow....each poem should be published separately....they each stand magnificent in their own right. You write with a soft pen...deep emotions from the heart flow....stirring the reader to read them again. Wonderful inks.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Jane. I appreciate your kind words.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Rochelle for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

[Lydia Shutter]

The first one is so true....there is not really a winner in any war....just losers. In the second one, the longing is palpable and real. Yes, when we want to tell our innermost secrets, the moon and the stars are always willing to listen. The celestial thread ties all your short poems together. I enjoyed them, John. Lydi**

These poems are really food for thought. I must confess the 'Awaken' is intensed and captured the radiance of beauty in romance. Well written.
