i like this one

I think that I shall never see,

A poem lovely as a tree.

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest,

Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast.

A tree who looks at God all day,

And lifts her leafy arms to pray.

A tree that may in summer wear,

A nest of robins in her hair.

Upon whose bosom snow has lain,

Who intimately lives with rain.

Poems are made by fools like me,

But only God can make a tree.

A BETTER TOMORROW



Author: Yvonne Warren



I never knew there would be a better tomorrow

But you've come into my life and taken away all my sorrow



My days of sadness are a thing of the past

Because I have found true love at last



My days of emptiness are gone for good

Because you fill a void in my heart that you should



You've opened a window

You've shown me the light

And my love for you will continue to burn bright.

I totally agree with Annabel Lee - E.A. Poe. It was the first poem I ever learned by heart back in grade six and I still love it over ten years later.

Annabel Lee



By Edgar Allan Poe

1849



It was many and many a year ago,

In a kingdom by the sea,

That a maiden there lived whom you may know

By the name of Annabel Lee:

And this maiden she lived with no other thought

Than to love and be loved by me.



I was a child and she was a child.

In this kingdom by the sea;

But we loved with a love that was more than love-

I and my Annabel Lee;

With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven

Coveted her and me.



And this was the reason that, long ago,

In this kingdom by the sea,

A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling

My beautiful Annabel Lee;

So that her highborn kinsman came

And bore her away from me,

To shut her up in a sepulchre

In this kingdom by the sea.



The angels, not half so happy in heaven,

Went envying her and me-

Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know,

In this kingdom by the sea)

That the wind came out of the cloud by night,

Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee



But our love it was stronger by far than the love

Of those who were older than we-

Of many far wiser than we-

And neither the angels in heaven above,

Or the demons down under the sea,

Can ever dissever my soul from the soul

Of the Beautiful Annabel Lee.



For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams

Of the Beautiful Annabel Lee;

And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes

Of the Beautiful Annabel Lee;

And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side

Of my darling-my darling- my life and my bride,

In the sepluchre there by the sea,

In her tomb by the sounding sea.



OH! To be loved like that!

Wild nights by Emily Dickinson



WILD nights! Wild nights!

Were I with thee,

Wild nights should be

Our luxury!



Futile the winds

To a heart in port,—

Done with the compass,

Done with the chart.



Rowing in Eden!

Ah! the sea!

Might I but moor

To-night in thee!

nothing gold can stay by robert frost



Nature's first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf's a flower;

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay.

I love the bees and butterflies, and yellow buttercups, but most of all I love the sound of water drying up.
