Poems Written for Special People

The first poem was written for a friend who had suffered much pain in the past years. I salute him for his strength and strong faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. I am praying that HE sustains him always for his children need him by their side. This poem is one of the many he posted in his site entitled Written in Sadness..


To a Precious Friend, “Enigma”
By Ancient-dreamergirl


My sword I hold to fend myself
The brush with paints of varied hues
Calling out, take me off thy shelf
Spread the colors of life subdued.

Canvass on hold awaits me stand
Deliver the broken soul within me
Despite the tears, an empty hand
I cling to GOD, let the present be!

I ask, “Why is life such a mystery”
A few seconds, my life is like summer
The sun so bright , the horizon clear
Then rain sets in with roaring thunder.

Water rushing, flooding all my sight
Destroyed the happiness built inside
No more fragrant flowers of delight
All washed away by the heavy flight.

Before thy throne of grace I stand
Surrender my whole being to You
I know the gift of brush in hand
Give glory to You, My praises due!


The second poem is written for someone I hold so dear. Have you heard the term "lukso ng dugo"? The moment I set eyes on this person I knew that there is a spiritual connection, something that is on a higher plane than that of normal things. Now, I have two beloved sons, he, as my spiritual first born and the next is my biological son. My prayers for my children are good health, happiness and contentment in whatsoever GOD has given them.


To My Son So Far Away
By Ancient-dreamergirl

Miles and miles away
In a land where your dreams abound
In spirit and in essence
Music of your being resound.

Longing to see your face
Look into your eyes so grave
So joyful to behold your smile
Graceful as a lullaby.

My heart rejoices when you say
You also care for me
My prayers night and day
Happy, healthy, content as can be.

Though no chemistry of blood
Can prove that you’re really mine
I treasure, cherish more the bond
More lasting, please, never unbind.

TO THE BEST FATHER IN THE LAND

I will make an effort to update this site on a weekly basis.

It is a bit late for Father's Day but I will still post this poem. We had a very simple celebration of the day, the whole family at home with a simple meal on the table.

TO THE BEST FATHER IN THE LAND
By ancient-dreamergirl

Your wit and humor are more
Than enough to carry us through
In laughter and tears, in pain and joy
You are always positive through and through.

You may not have given us the luxuries all
But the thoughtfulness and caring are
Present, glorifying in all you say and do
It’s in the little things that imply you care deeply, too.

We are blessed to have you as someone
To love, respect, honor, and cherish
For me, a loving and faithful husband
God-fearing father incomparable to none!

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY FROM ALL OF US!!

MY HEART IS BREAKING

Today is Friday, June 20, 2008. It is a sad day for me. My dearest daughter is sad because she was very disappointed with the outcome of her desire to have a new post at the office. With such a heavy heart, I wrote this poem for her.


MY HEART IS BREAKING
By: ancient-dreamergirl


My heart is breaking into pieces
I can’t bear to see you cry
I wish I could change the chances
But they are not for me to try.

I believe that HE has other plans
In the future for you, wait awhile
HE cares and knows your heart
As HE prepares, in the meanwhile:

Wipe your tears, my dear child
Another day, another chance
Today is not the time to mind
A move to higher, grander plans

If Only I Could

By ancient-dreamergirl

If only I could build a bridge
Over the vast blue skies above
If only I could fly a big machine
And reach you in time my love.

If only I could hold you again
Against my hungry breast
If only I could get you back
Inside my womb, the best!

If only I could give you the world
I would try to lay it before thy feet
If only I could muster the words
I would say to you my pleas to heed!

Don’t go, I will sing you a lullaby
Stay with me, comfort me awhile
So far away, yonder your wings bring
My little child, success in its being?

On Solitude

Another old poem.

ON SOLITUDE
By: Ancient-dreamergirl

Loneliness I cry out to thee
Why all day long you sit with me
I try to run as fast as I could
Away from you, yes I would!

Why the lonely colors linger
Why the pain do not subside
Why must the heart remember
What must I do, surrender?

I told myself that I am strong
Nothing can crash my spirit
Nothing can ever go wrong
That in my hands, FOUND IT!

Like the air that goes so thin
I blew my life away with him
Why must love ever end this way
So much to give, love gone astray!
