MAGIC WORDS
Edward Iacona
There are many magic words
When we have the predilection
For expressing our deepest thoughts
To the object of our affection.
Don’t worry if you’re word impaired
Cause it isn’t very hard
To borrow the words of poets
Including Avon’s bard.
If that is not your style
One really can’t go wrong
With the music and lyrics
Of a well selected song.
And, within our wireless age
There’s no need to be perplexed
Consider the joys of Voicemail
Or, if you must, just text.
You can say them or sing them
Shout out loud or mutter them.
If emotions overcome you
One may have to stutter them.
When it comes to magic words
There is no one way to utter them
No matter which way you choose
You should not ever shutter them.
Then there will be other times
When mutual impulses call
And magic words may be spoken
But are not needed at all.
all of you have always seemed hollow to me...
I can't feel your forced company.. just a shell with no meaning..
why do you people keep breeding..?
absent of harmony, it's all been chased away by fear..
rejecting the light, crawling into loneliness, you can only pretend for so long..
bouncing off the walls our past memories, never are they comforting..
society will try to saw off your wings..
they'll rob you of your money so you can't afford the pretty things..
false attachments out of feeling, co-dependance keeps on feeding on our heart's gentle beating..
mis-communication all the time, where on earth is everyone's mind..?
creativity locked up and self expression is confined..
why do they continue to try & waste my time... because they've been wasting their own..?
don't let them leave you hollow, or you'll find yourself without a core, before the end of tomorrow..
you'll be living off their systematic LIES.
you will no longer see yourself when you gaze into the reflection of your own eyes...
Muttered words in gutters of stone,
passed along the incline down streams
of melted snow.
With every split across the hardened pipe,
somebody will paraphrase and fail
to communicate.
And as the wind licks at the pavement,
and the skies yield to none;
the words find the sewers.
“Ring and Ring”, your ring tones go on…
A mobile has become a vehicle with a horn!
We are extremely dependent on mobiles today..
Without a mobile we have lost our way!
News now is on the latest mobile model coming,
Everyone is excited, calculating the mobile value and summing,
Is life gone to the gadget room?
Are we going to take these gadgets to our tomb!
When are we going to live simple?
When are we going to smile free with or without a dimple?
A simple life lived more with nature speaks,
You can face all challenges and reach successful peaks!
I love you still,
against my true will.
Please do not be so unkind,
to place around my mouth a bind.
What makes you the majority rules?
That is made for the class A fools.
My soul is not beneath the ground,
Our consciousness was bred by the same round.
Marriage was meant for caring, lovers,
Not to be left and tossed aside, asunder, under your wicked covers.
Someone thinks it is okay to hang up the phone on others,
In their mind places them up higher, oh brother!
No! It means birthright dictates a cruelty streak,
Forgive the insincere, but sometimes, yes, my friend, you reek.
Let us run between the dry, withering trees, calling out thy name,
Marshland of communication, designed by our Lord is not a game.
Do not walk all over me anymore, tired of the sulky shore,
believe it or not, I shall not eat for hunger anymore.
The visions came through,
my ideas for writing poetry.
A year before all the grief,
pain and horrific sorrow.
Spiritualism had knocked at my door,
I was filled with hope, love and joy.
Many centered around the possibility of miracles,
not just being an illusion but a reality.
God started talking to me when my fingers typed,
a unique and special communication between us.
I never questioned why those words came to me,
yet knew great emotion was connected, linking my future.
God was ahead of the game and I was his player,
happy to be a part of the team, trusting in the process.
Although, a stumbling block has happened in regards to healing,
no more talk of miracles until I see it for real.
God says to be patient and to stay very still,
life is in motion and the prophesy is true.
Together we shall mend the loopholes,
fill in the gaps, building a bridge to protect my good.

Quietly, I trust in unforeseen answers to appear,
as always my heart is founded in his omnipotent consciousness.
My faith continues in life, whether I can see his hand in mine,
I hold it out for him to grab waiting like a small child.
Father in heaven knows best, never wavering, is my love,
nothing can take that away, my cup runneth over in gratitude.
For I have been given the greatest gift ever dreamt of, to know God,
filled with joy for finding such a true friend, a part of me, here forever.
