This thread is for those that are creative - no matter what area, whether its poetry, embroidery, crochet, story writing, etc.- you can post it or post a picture of it. Feel free to be as creative as you want to.;)
 

This is a poem I wrote a couple of years ago.

[h=2]Child of God 2/6/09[/h]I was born a child of God
Designed by him in his own infinite wisdom
My life following the master plan he set forth long ago
When he began to create me.

God knows who I am
He knew what I was and who I would be
He knew the hardships I would face
Yet he created me anyway.

God knows I am gay
That I love who I love
That this isnt a choice or my decision
Yet he created me anyway.

God knows Im not perfect
That I make mistakes
Sometimes learning from them and sometimes not
Yet he created me anyway.

God knows I am not the best parent at times
That decisions I have made will affect my son
That some of them may cause harm
Yet he created me anyway.

God knows that I try to follow his word
Trying not to judge lest I be judged
Casting not the first stone since my life isnt perfect
Yet he created me anyway.

God made me
Every piece of bone, flesh, blood that makes my body
My morals, my ethics, my beliefs
And he created me to be me.

Not to be ostrasized by society
Not to be snickered at or damned to Hell
Not to be looked on as a disease to mankind
He created me to be me and knows the person I am
I am a child of God.
 
[h=2]If 2/4/09[/h]If I could relive my life and start over from the beginning
There are so many things I would change
So many things I would do differently
So many life lessons I would avoid.

Id cherish my friendships more
Let those that I care about know
Not let them think Id become indifferent
Let them know what place in my heart they hold.

Id cherish my family more
Let my Mother know exactly what she meant to me
Tell my Pappaw he was my world
Never let a day go by without telling her how much I loved them.

Id cherish time more
Not wasting a moment with nonsense
Savoring each day for the treasure it is
Loving each second of my life and youth.

Id cherish the one that has my heart more
Looking for her sooner in my life
Not settling for anything but her pure love
Embracing all she gives me.

Id cherish my son more
Relishing every moment we have together
Take more pictures of our good times
Criticise less and hug more.

Id cherish my life more
Not abusing my body with things that tear it down
Respecting the gift I have been given in life
 

[h=2]I Watch Him written 2007[/h]I watch him sleep
Lying there with not a care in the world
Smiling when he has a good dream
And at times laughing in his slumber.

When he wakes, it’s always the same
A hug and an I love you
A cute smile that helps to heal any pain
A smile that is so innocent.

He is so innocent right now
But I know the day is coming
The day when there won’t be a hug
The day when I love you will be rarely said.

I treasure this time with him
Knowing it won’t last
Hormones and growing up will take it away
His innocence all lost.

He will tell me “Don’t kiss me in front of my friends”
“Don’t say you love me when you drop me off”
“Don’t embarrass me Mom”
I know the day is near, nearer than I expect.

I keep in a special place all the memories
Memories of his birth
Memories of his first ice cream
Memories of him with Grandma.

I treasure this time with him now
Wanting him to stay the same and yet wanting him to grow
Wanting him to be the man he’s supposed to be.
Wanting him to make a difference in the world.

I watch him sleep
Lying there with not a care in the world
Smiling when he has a good dream
And at times laughing in his slumber.
 
Wow, all three of those are really really good, I've never been a creative person, but I wish I was, I'll see if I can post some of my wife's work up here if I can find it.
 
A cup Of Decaf Coffee.

By Elsie J. Doll

Well, I won’t be spilling coffee onto

My friend’s carpet anymore, she

Made sure of that. Because of my

Shaking, I’d spilled decaf all over her

Carpet yesterday. Had to scrub the

Stain out with carpet cleaner. Because

I got it out, she invited me back today

For another visit and a cup of decaf coffee.

I feel a little silly sitting in this chair in

The middle of a child’s plastic pool, but at

Least if I spill, it won’t land on her carpet.
