A Poetic Love Story

Two Ships Passing


Boy sees girl.
Girl notices boy.
Boy wants to meet girl.
Girl is oblivious.
Boy meets girl.
Girl is still oblivious.
Boy is funny.
Girl laughs.
Boy is oblivious.
Girl notices boy is funny.
Boy and girl share a moment.
Girl has to go.
Boy is looking at other girls.
Girl is wondering if boy met someone else.
Boy is doing his own thing.  
Girl is wondering what the boy is thinking.
Boy is still oblivious.
Girl sends boy an email.
Boy never responds.
Girl is thinking there must be other boys out there who are not oblivious.
Boy is so totally oblivious.
Girl is thinking of meeting a cowboy instead.
Boy has no idea.
Girl begins playing the field.
And so...
Two ships pass each other oblivious...

My friends and I talk about this often.  Why is it that guys act like they are interested in you and then never contact you?  Or better yet, they hover and share your space yet never talk to you?  Or the guys that talk to you but then end up walking into a wall?  Guys are very hard to figure out sometime!

Psalm

91


I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress:  my God; in him will I trust.

A friend of mine recently recommended this Psalm to me and I thought it was great for much needed protection in this day and age.  Maybe it will help you too!

Log Bump


A bump on a log
sitting watching TV too
too much still a lump.

@JoSH Poetic Popcorn Poetry

There are people in life that watch TV and people in life that are the ones being watched.  I like to watch TV here and there to relax but there have been times in my life that I hardly watch TV at all because I get too busy.  Hope you have to time to relax today in the hurry scurry of our busy world.

George Eliot

What greater thing is there for two human souls, than to feel that they are joined for life--to strengthen each other in all labor, to rest on each other in all sorrow, to minister to each other in all pain, to be one with each other in silent unspeakable memories at the moment of the last parting?”

I came across this quote today and thought about the connection between two human souls.  This is why people get married or don't get married, isn't it?  However not everyone marries for the right reason.  And love is not a reason to get married according to some people.  Do you know why?

Monsoon Haiku

Rainy Day


Drip... drip... drop... drop... drip...
Wet, very wet, more wet, too wet...
Raining cats and dogs.

So I woke up this morning to rain:  Lots of it.  Which is really odd since it's June and not April.  Where was all this rain in April?  I know we had rain but not this much rain!  Enjoy your rainy Saturday morning!  I always think that rainy days weren't meant to be curled up around a good book.
