I Wish I Could

I'm a Harry Potter fan and this is a poem that I had a great deal of fun doing. It's far more light-hearted than just about any other poem I've ever written. Again, this one was written awhile ago like all I've posted today and many others on here. I'm going to add dates to all of these once I get off my lazy bum to look them up from my forum for the post dates.

I wish I could snore like Dumbledore
In his study at night
He's sleeping soundly
Muttering loudly
About socks

I wish I could see like Trelawney
She's up in the heavens above
Looks more like a bug than a dove
Peering into her crystal ball
Predicting danger for us all

I wish I could fly like Harry
Spinning around on a broom
Whoosh, zing, zoom
Halfway up to the moon
Even if some wizards think he's a loon

I am glad I'm not like Voldemort
He's too tall; I'm short
I wouldn't want to be feared
Everyone calling me other names
Running quickly away

I wish I could meet Severus Snape
I really do think he's great
Brilliant and witty
Private lessons would be giddy
I wouldn't even mind having detention every night

That's enough rhyming for now
Maybe later we can ponder
On the Marauders;
Lily and James Potter
Until then

The Journey’s End

  old and new, I’m here waiting for you over the hills and under the sun waiting for you as life has begun waiting for you as long as we’ll be waiting for you as you waited for me again we go together my friend through these woods as deep as our sorrows we’ll travel this way into each day through mountains and glens til tomorrow gilded and golden, sapling in green dusty and dark, light with a spark colors abound throughout our journey filling our hearts at all we’ve seen making us age at every stage we’ve dreamed all of life's majesty in the oceans and ponds and what lies beyond footsteps echoing on the hard ground voices fading out til they have no sound we arrive here where we started before each of us the same yet now we've changed one of us lives and cries and cries the other lies down in this cold ground and closes her eyes dusty and dark, light with a spark we’ll travel this way into each day through mountains and glens til tomorrow

The Fourth Riddle

  The Fourth Riddle I’m a whisper on the wind A thought held deep within Imprinted on your bones I won’t ever let you go I know your name I don’t forget anything By design, I hide The truth from sight Hush, shush Don’t rush They don’t know yet Try to keep me quiet Be silent They might buy it I’m embedded in your mind Entrenched inside How do you sleep each night? Worried they’re nearby This train is a one way trip But did you want a ticket? Oh, you can’t get off Until the end of the line Hush, shush Don’t rush They don’t know yet Try to keep me quiet Be silent They might buy it Hush, shush Don’t rush They don’t know yet Try to keep me quiet Be silent You can still deny it You are a prisoner of mine A prisoner in your mind I won’t ever let you go I control everything I’ll follow you to the grave Shhh Don’t talk

Be Someone

When I shut my eyes And hold them tight The colors flash In my head so bright A whirlwind swirls The ocean’s waves A tide that’s fierce The sun’s sharp rays I think of you too far away You’ll never be here where I live You’ll never see this place Never have the same experiences Can I be someone Will it be enough Can we stay this way Despite the distance away I might still be the one You love I might still be the one You love Each day unfolds Going through these motions Attempts to care To be sane and well Not in a self-made hell Tired and spent Cracked and dry Lines forming on my hands Around my eyes I think of you too far away You’ll never be here where I live You’ll never see this place Never have the same experiences Can I be someone Will it be enough Can we stay this way Despite the distance away I might still be the one You love I might still be the one You love Can you be someone Will you be enough Should we stay this way Too distant and far away Am I still the one You love Are y...
