Topic: Anyone know any children book publishers or contest?

any good places to try to get published. Its all about loving someone
even if they are diffrent than you.
Topic: RE: CONFESSIONS!
I don't know what to say except I'm sorry. When I was younger I tended to write poetry like that and I actually made a book of them called "Poems of Love and Life". I wrote them all in calligraphy and think I will try to have them published now that everything about them is in the past.

Topic: stream of mind tonight
I wanted to give this board a boost---it is nice to read everyone's expressions...I am hoping more people write...so I am just going to do something spontaneous and go with that to spark fellow poets---
In the Art of the Trees
I met a man with a gentle soul
guiding his flowers like they were his children
It was in the art within the trees I
found the love with the ghost of me
the girl I thought I'd lost for good came back in the sun
with a sprinkle from his water can
I bloom and feed the butterflies that dance on my petals
and fall into your soft kind hands
knowing you revived my lifeless color
with a smile.

Topic: CONFESSIONS!
I can't go on feeling
the way I've been feeling
and not let you know
my day starts out with you
on my mind thru out the day
its you all the time
whom I'm wanting and needing
by myside
I care for you so much
and I really want you in my life
I must confess I hope to one day
be your wife
these feelings are growing to a point
so strong where its hard for me
to hide
I sit up at night and cry
because I want you at my side
what must I do to hide
the pain I feel deep down inside
because I cant have you here
holding me thru the night
my love I feel for you in my heart
is so right
I love you my black king!!
dont you know I dont need a ring
to be your wife
as long as you want me in your life
I'am here for you and will never leave
I must confess
you've past the test
youve touched my soul
and no one else can ever get this close
to me because I love you so.
I wrote this poem back in 1999
for a man that I truly loved he was murdered 4 years ago and tomorrow is his b-day
so I thought I would honor his memory with sharing with you guys the love we once had thankyou for reading just remembering how deep I felt for him makes me

Topic: Love Is? (Written a week before my surgery)
When does one become a haven a peace,
A shelter from the storm?
When does love become the end all be all
Of romance and humanity?
When you become your own haven
Create your own peace
And understand that God is love.
For without love, humanity will perish
Without a haven of peace, wars will destroy
Without a shelter from the storm,
The flood will carry us away.
In love we do languish,
But it is not a divine love, only selfish,
Burning bright, burning out
With a brief intensity that is minute.
But with the love of God,
Those who languish in love will be set free
The light will burn forever,
Intensifying every hour, ever and ever.
Until we find this amazing love,
We march on, as sheep to the slaughter
Burnt upon our own altars of sacrifice.
Amazing love, help us to find you.
That we may live in your haven of peace,
Be sheltered from the storm
And be saved from the flood.
