Growing
Growing hurts sometimes; saying goodbye to friends, to things you've known and done to things you wanted to do.
Growing heals sometimes the shattered dreams and hopes of a life you once knew leading you to a new knowledge of yourself.
Growing is fun sometimes meeting new friends learning new things making changes that feel good and moving on.
Growing is necessary always. Without change there is stagnation death instead of life. To choose to live is to choose to grow.

Expressing an Emotion - The Art of Writing Poetry Writing poetry is an art, a way of expression, finding meaning in few words. A melody of passion flowing out onto the pages, words that flow into each other and yet express the inner most thoughts and feelings of those who read the words. Writing poetry is a gift, a wonderful gift, being able to illuminate words so that they form a picture, express a feeling and share a thought in so few words. Unlike telling a story or writing a novel that explains every intricate detail a poem leaves you to draw your own conclusion. Writing poetry can be a healing process, putting down on paper all the emotions locked up inside ones head, a way of remembering and a way of re-living. Poetry has many forms from free verse to sonnet but all poems tell a story, a story of words, words wrapped around each other in such away that they flow together, locked in meaning. The poem below is titled "Playing" and every time I read this poem I cannot help but smile, as too will any mother reading this poem. See if you smile. A Happiness Poem If a happiness poem could bring forth a smile, Then my face would always dress in style. Three Poems: Liberty, Death, and a Frog [with Commentary on Liberty] Frog Summer
