I took it upon myself to give our ZE poets a special place to share their work

Here is a recent one by me:

Forgive me Father for I have
Fallen into the vast unknown
Of the deep connection
That has formed between
Myself and a shining angel
Thanks to all her magnetic
Charms and wits which she
Is never afraid to use and I
Have found myself falling
Deeper and deeper into these
Feelings for the bright angel
that I have found myself with.

Almighty Father, I believe I have
Found someone who I am truly
Itching to spend the rest of my life
With even if I have to leave
The comfort and security of
Home and make my way to her.

Father, I pray to you in the hopes
That you will help me to see the
Path that I must take to pursue
This unbridled joy and connection
That I have found in the bond I
Now share with the amazing angel
Whose name resonates on the
Tip of my tounge and drives
Its way into my very heart and soul.

Fresh and nude
This shell feels of silk
Nurish my mood
I suckle the milk

Growing in bounds
Time is a mist
Innocent grounds
No longer exist

Choose my craft
Look straight ahead
Given the shaft
Dream are all shed

Looked over,looked past
To never be seen
HInd-sight is cast
On what could have been

Wander in a daze
With nothing to tend
This imopssible maze
Seems there's no end

Pain exponential
Relentless regret
A losers potential
Is never met

Joy is so rare
Good memories so few
Nobody to care
Nothing left to do

Silk shell lies burning
I Suckle no more
With only one yearning
To walk thru Death's door.

Hunted

Always running
Begging for supplies
Checking over your shoulder
Doubting your safety
Expecting them to find you at any moment
Fearing anyone you see, even yourself
Getting more distance between them and you whenever you can
Hiding your true identity from even yourself
Instinctively cowering away from kind faces
Running, Hiding, Running, always fearing for your life

You are. The Hunted.

A sword, forged and sold by a local smith
Streched and yet folded over and over
Hath slain tenth-fold foes of myth
Strong and sharp, deadly, and swift moreover

A sword, hung upon it's owner's belt
Which gleams when drawn in the sun
And in contact is ice to be felt
And holds an edge sharp as a nun

A sword, draw and held to the sunlight
Then brought down quickly on it's victim's head
When held up for all to see, glows limelight
And when dropped, cares not who hath bled

The might blade yonder hath many slain
And shall be marked as legend bane.

There is a girl, stunning as a Holy Angel
There is a girl, light and airy as an angel
The beautiful young girl, her name Angell
The amazing young girl, an archangel

This stunning young girl, strong, tall, and proud
She works and works yet stays so very stunning
This incredible girl light as a cloud
Don't underesimate her, she's cunning!

There is a girl, sweet, young, and charming yet smart
This incredible young girl, sweet motherly
Her compatability is off the chart
Yet she always seem to be northerly
This beautiful young girl, holy as an angel
She is cunning, smart, young, named Angell

Well, I heard through the grapevine that Gale wishes someone would write a poem about her
so....

Gale

Gale, a woman of grace and precision
She dances, sings and acts until
the cows come calling home at night,
then she joins the others of the
great community where she
assumes her role as an official
that you really don't want to tangle with!

She brings her own flair of intelligence
and sophistication to those around her
and is really always fairly sociable.
You stay on her good side and she
is just a sweet, smart young woman
who never minds helping another learn.

However, get on her bad side and she
quickly becomes the stuff you might
see in your most terrifying nightmares.

Gale, the awesome swordswoman with
a love and deep appreciation for the
martial arts, who guides her pupils
through the toughest of times.

This fine woman named Gale will grow
to become an even finer mother and
will spoil her future children with great
love and affection, and she will raise
them to be a new generation of
good people with a deep rooted
sense of morals and respect for
those superior to them.

Hope you guys like it! (I had to re-do it since I forgot to copy the original onto my computer clipboard)

Your eyes look right into
My guarded soul
Your heart reaches out
To my hardened heart
Your feisty attitude makes
Me smile brightly with a great
Laugh. I never seem to
Have a dull moment when
I am talking to you.
My happiest wish is to be
There by your side, laughing
And thanking the Lord for
The blessing of your company.

You know my stresses
You know my pains
You know my heart
You know my wish

You always come through
When it comes to making
Me smile and brightening
Up even my worst days.

My most sincere and
Most desired wish
Is to somehow join
You in life and have
You by my side when
I need a big hug

I would gladly
Give up my entire
Collection of PS3 and
PS2 games just to
Be able to have you
Right there for the
Rest of my life

You are my angel
You are my sunshine
You are my Eve, and
I would jump straight
Out of a plane just
To ensure I stay with
You.
I don’t much believe
In religious stories
But I do believe that
Heaven sent you into
My life as my angel.
