[hometext] => Though I would never call my life wonderful I know that I have been given a very special gift: two of the best people who ever graced this earth as my grandparents. Everytime I think of them my heart swells with pride. A small tribute to them.
[bodytext] => When I lay all in pieces Here upon the craggy ground And love comes from nowhere near I will not despair For I have a place I can go to find the love I seek Oh, take me South to an ever open door To a sun shined house warm and whole To the few people left genuinely pure Off to the Lee’s I’ll be I can never lie, saying no one cares When two, I know, always will They who set examples with their lives Who inspire hope and virtue From the core of who they are Simply being in their presence makes me free Off to the Lee’s I’ll be All the struggles that I face They’ve faced ten fold worse But such things they will never say Strong pillars of humble righteousness They are a blessing to those around them I love to be in their company Off to the Lee’s I’ll be So when I’m in need of true guidance And wisdom I can trust Or just a good meal and a soft bed for sleep I’ll turn my feet towards sweet south ‘Bama And off home to Calvin and Idelma I’ll be [comments] => 3 [counter] => 376 [topic] => 55 [informant] => MLCstar [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
