Array ( [sid] => 152661 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Hero [time] => 2009-08-28 09:12:59 [hometext] => [bodytext] => My hero, doesn’t fly.
He dances and sings,
Listens to the blues and drinks wine when he cooks.
He watches old rock stars on Sunday mornings,
And hates vegetables because they’re healthy.

My hero can’t lift buildings.
He laughs and cries,
Says whatever is on his mind
He only eats cold eggs and drinks chocolate milk,
And gets his colors all wrong.

My hero
Bluest eyes
Laughs the loudest
Despises liars

My hero
Three years old
The half to make me whole
Composed of compassion and smiles

My heroes, save lives
My heroes, have no fear
My father, my brother
Hate one, love the other. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 197 [topic] => 23 [informant] => anomalei [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FamilyPoems )

A funny, passionate write. Something a little different, and I like that.

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. Â©
