WE WALK THE TALK

We walk with a tall stickNot to take a single lickThe over sharing love of heartMay sometimes tear us apart We walk a long mileStick around for awhileFor tiring may get oldGiveth one, a time to unfold We walk with head highFor a reason, for a whyProud of you, proud of meOneness together, for all you see

We walk the talkAnd walk the walkHowever so blatant
Not too expectating

However severe
Knows no fear
We walk the talkAnd balk the walk.

Hello Mona :-)

"We walk with a tall stick never taking another lick For over sharing love of heart Sometimes tears us all apart" That is so true my dear friend. I don't think we can love to much, but we can love in the wrong way, and that's where the heart break comes in. Nice pen sweetie, A strong woman who stand tall. Well done. Love and hugs, Venus xxx btw, I attended a healing circle tonight, and added your name, so hope you are feeling a bit better. **Smiles**

Thank you and what happend to my stars lol

Laughing only kidding I know you shine your star my way and that's all that I care about as I had to shed a moment of sadness as I felt the other night for you, yes the love is a wonderful thing and sometimes we lose sight of it in a moment of adversity or anger. Love conquers all afterwards though, something I learned and was given to me at birth. If we love then we shall live. Vivere my friend. Hope you are feeling better day by day as battles in life are hard enough without any extra's shoved in there. We shall survive for we love and we live. Neoway!! Thanks for visit aussie lady Mona xoxo Learn to live, learn to forgive. Life is too short.

Thank you my Rosalina gal

I appreciate your words and for the way you come to my page all the time. And how are you doing by the way. I would love to see you with the pretty hair to make that sunny smile come alive again and face the world head on. I know how you suffer, as we all have a burden we carry some more heavier then others, It is in this recognition that we learn to comfort, to love and to share. Thinking of you always and wishing you love my Rosalina lady!! Love Mona Marie xoxooxox Learn to live, learn to forgive. Life is too short.

Giveth?

Giveth bothers me here. It's archaic, is it not? If you're looking for two syllables, how about, Give me or Give us? I also think it could have ended with L12 or L13. After that, it's too difficult to read and, I think, too pushy. That's what I think, anyway. Lisa

Thank you

For the visit and yes I have been tinkering with this one several times as I have reworked it also, Giveth is like giving one rest. No it is not a pushy but if you read it that way it is okay, I may have to come back and work the ending again for the 4th time and I thank you for the feedback, appreciate it, magics02 Learn to live learn to forgive.

Heartfelt!

"The over sharing love of heart, May sometimes tear us apart" Profoundly true, when love turns into possessiveness (my my, so many sses in that word I feel like I'm hissing whenever I use it!) I'm new here and this poem appears to have some history I may not grasp but the message doesn't suffer.

Welcome Harvey

Yes glad to see you on board here at Neo Poet. Alot of great poetry in here and happy to see visit my poem. And on the over sharing love of heart may mean many different things as in... you share your heart and soul with one or ones and then they or them may shear it down to a thistle leaving it torn like a shattered glass...broken only to mend itself again... I dont know if that makes any sense to you as it's meaning can be varied in it's interpretations. Anyhow so glad to see you Harvey and loved your poem about "POE". Thank you for the lovely commentary. Love in friendship always magics02 Learn to live, learn to forgive. Life is too short.

Thank you R.M.

Yes I appreciate your comments and I have to understand what coining wards or words means. I just sit here and I write whatever is coming to mind at the moment and then sometimes I sit with one pen and pad and go to it. Most of my stuff is free style, as it comes as I feel it or sense it. Thank you for the visit back to my pages. love Magics02 xoxoxoxo

Just like you said in baseball

I just thought I would throw a curve ball in there and you were right to get it balk as in balking or sulking or balking the walk as in baseball, however the reader interprets it then that is how it is meant, Now please no balking me okay, not today I have a headache lol love ya indi xoxoxohugs and more hugs out to you and Brina
