We refer to them as "Birthstones."  And we associate these special stones with each month of the year.  

Much has been written about them in history, mythology and even the scientific circles.

POEMS ABOUT LIFE PART 2

WHAT WOULD IT BE?(NEW)

The sun shines bright

and the waterfall splash

Cool cool air feels so right

Half a day's gone in a flash! 

What would it be? 

What would it be? 

You'll leave behind 

what legacy? ?

APPEARANCE(NEW)

A picture says a thousand words

How you see and treat towards

another soul on appearance sake

Some can even be so fake

So try your best to take

what you see with salt

Just give someone a break

Their looks are not their fault.

CHOICES

The choices we make in this life,

The choices we make, true or fake,
The choices we make, wrong or right,
The choices we make, heavy or light,
What turns your life, dark or bright?

The choices we make,, we made our bed,
The choices we make,, chances fade,
The choices we make, change too late,
The choices we make, due time will tell,
The choices we make, emotional well.

The choices we make, is who we are,
The choices we make, near or far,
The choices we make, can turn cruel,
The choices we make, the question rule.

Drama Queen(New)

Are you a drama queen? 

who loves to make a scene? 

Every thing has been, 

your beck and every whim

The man will be at loss, 

to what he so far seen.but troubled though he was, he'll love her jealous green.

It never occur to him, 

to sit her down one day, to talk her down, come clean, what life with her has been.

Until that day should come, 

Quarrels, bitching scenes, will splatter on his brain, and leave him energy drain.

So, little drama queen, 

be still and stop between, the man who loves you so, you should not let him go!

Drama Queen In-Law

I heard & what I saw

A cold heart hard to thaw

A drama queen in-law

cuts through like a saw

I don't get it, what for? 

To spread the hurt

where should be love

spew words so curt

is there no gentle love? 

I heard & that I saw.

LIFE'S QUESTIONS

Do you ever smile wide when you're all by yourself?

I know you do. And I'll never ask why.

Have you ever cried, knowing no one knows?

I know you have, and you'd wished someone knew why.

Have you ever day-dreamed?

I know it's fun. And it's crazy, but fantasies do really exist.

Have you ever hoped so high, and then fallen from the same height?

It's called life. It changes, but you're a wonderful phoenix.

Have you ever felt trapped?

We all want to fly. And some of us find our way; by searching for it.

Have you ever felt trapped in the prison of monotony?

We all do, more or less often and the answer lies within us.

Ever, for a moment, have you envied someone?

If you have, just know that there are more who envy YOU.

Ever thought that no one understands you?

You're wrong.

Ever felt useless?

I know it sucks. So make yourself useful. You know better.

Ever felt so morbidly low and hopeless?

Just know that it's hope that attracts good fortune.

Ever wondered why things are so dull and wrong?

You were the one holding onto it by keeping it alive in your mind.

Ever closed your eyes, breathed, and thought of all your treasures

that money can't buy?

It's the most amazing feeling.

Want to know the secret to multiply all that you have????

I know you won't believe me but it's SHARING.

Will you believe me when I say that I really care about you?

It's true. People do still care.

Ever wanted to turn back time and re-write those memories?

If imperfections weren't created to make perfect feelings and real

experiences, then life and even your existence would be meaningless.

Ever lost something you can never have again?

It's not the end of the world. You still have so much you haven't lost yet

and so much you can do. Open your eyes.

Ever felt guilty about doing something?

Confess. It takes guts.

Ever felt like you're not good enough?

You are really not good enough- if that's what you BELIEVE.

Ever felt like you can never get over what's happened?

Tell me, do you always laugh at the same old jokes again and again?

what will brooding ever give you?

Ever felt like you're all alone?

You are not alone. Just look around and erase this by sharing your love.

CHANGES

Some people change for the better,

Some people can't, don't know any better,

Don't want to change because of the Ego,

Can change, when know where to go.

We all change little by little.

In the mind, in the physical.

Death pushes back the level.
