[hometext] => Megan, the girl who inspired ' 'Lorelei Amaya' ' said to me as we watched some guys playing bball, ' 'You know, the way we're sitting here feels like we're at the beach' ' and I ran with the idea
[bodytext] => Sitting on the sidelines--Or is it the shore? Relaxed with a friend--Just what I've longed for The players move round to a slow hip hop beat Sliding like waves and they sweat from the heat And the balls in the air make an arc coming down Resembling fish jumping up, swimming round When one team scores a point, makes a basket with ease You can hear the net swoosh like a warm ocean breeze Our hardwood beach sand just needs seashells and snails We'll swap sneakers for sandals and make castles with pails And just like the beach I wish this wouldn't end Simply us sitting here being nothing but friends Now, you see, at the beach I don't know how to swim And I know that the dawn of our friendship is dim One guy takes a long shot, I feel just like him Like shooting despite the distance to the rim See, 'cause I feel the need to go out on this limb To hold onto this friendship that's based on a whim [comments] => 8 [counter] => 988 [topic] => 16 [informant] => liquidsunshine [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 16 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => FriendshipPoetry )

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. ©
