Original Poem: Open your Heart

Tue, 24 Jun 2008 09:31:30 GMT

When you feel sad
Open your heart
Find a writing pad
And make a fine art
If you see a sad face
Open your heart
Like a holy place
And make a smile
When you walk around
Open your heart profound
Enjoy the landscape
With all its beauty shapes
Even with anger
Be smart
Open your heart
And see the change
(c)2006 Carlos Reyes

Believe in yourself poem

Fri, 04 Apr 2008 12:41:30 GMT

You are your greatest asset
There is nothing you can't do
No one can keep you from dreaming
Only you can stop them coming true
Your achievements are determined
By the desire that you possess
Believe in who you are
Believe in what you do
It's not a quirk of fate
It's strictly up to you

Original Poem: Moon River

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 06:23:48 GMT

When I feel upset
I wish I'd play clarinet
But I go for a walk
at least for one block

If it's during the day
I'd rather go for a run
hopefully around a bay
Until I am outdone

But at night
Then easier to withdraw
I walk like a knight
In my natural law

Listening a nice tune
Staring a full moon
And calm delivers
Like sailing a moon river

To my friends Poem by JLB

To my friends
By Jorge Luis Borges

I can't give you solutions for your problems in life
I have no answers for your questions and fears
but I can listen and share them

I can't avoid that you fall
I can only offer you my hand
so you can hold on and do not fall

Your happiness, wins and success aren't mine
but I enjoy them particularly when I see you happy

I don't judge your decisions in life . I limit myself to support, encourage and only help you if you ask me

I can't limit the space where you can act
but I offer enough room so you can grow

I can't avoid your suffering and when you are heartbroken
but I can cry with you and pick the pieces to build it again

I can not tell either who you are or who you should be

I can only like you as you are and be your friend

On these days I thought on my friends
and among them there it was you.
You were not on the top, or middle or bottom of my list
you weren't the first or last. I do not pretend to be number one, second or last of your list

If you sincerely like me is enough
Thanks for being my friend

Original poem: Partnership is the key

Sat, 09 Feb 2008 00:52:02 GMT

It feels so good
Being in love
Being in good mood
To make the right move
No always is good
But can only be bad
If it is not understood
And turn you mad
No try to be God
Enjoy the moment
And a bad moment
Can only hurt good
Partnership is the key
And being in love
You have to agree
Can only hurt good

The Queen by Pablo Neruda

Tue, 05 Feb 2008 07:24:23 GMT

I have named you the Queen
There are taller than you,  taller
There are  purer than you,  purer
There are more beautiful than you, more beautiful

But you are The Queen

When you go by the street nobody recognize you
Nobody see your crystal crown
Nobody see the red carpet that you step in
when you walk the carpet does not exist

And when you show
All the rivers sound
In my body, bells shake the sky
And a hymn fills the world

Only you and me,
Only you and me, my love,
We listen it

Original Poem: Moonlight Dancing

Tue, 29 Jan 2008 06:29:51 GMT

What better for romancing
than having a moonlight dancing
Let the music start
to conquer your heart

You like dancing
I like romancing
It is full moon
We have a great tune

Suddenly you like my romancing
and I like your dancing
I have a great start
to conquer your heart

We are moonlight dancing
Will I conquer your heart?
Everything is enhancing
I am having a great start

Original Poem: The World is our playground

Wed, 23 Jan 2008 06:33:17 GMT

I have a beautiful dream
About a gorgeous girl
More beautiful than a pearl
Top of the cream

That's what I truly think
She is very sweet
And finally we meet
To initially have a drink

She has big dreams
Cream of the creams
Love is her fuel
Like having a big jewel

My love is profound
I am very keen
To make her see
The world is our playground

Tactic & Strategy by Mario Benedetti

Sun, 20 Jan 2008 03:05:30 GMT

My tactic is to look at you
To learn the way you are
To love you the way you are.
My tactic is to talk to you
and listen to you
To build with words
An indestructible bridge.
My tactic is to be frank
And to know you are frank
And that we don't sell pretenses
to each other
So that between us
There won't be a curtain or chasm.

My strategy is instead
More profound and more simple
My strategy is
That someday
I don't know how or
With what pretext
At last you will need me.

Original poem: The language of love

Tue, 15 Jan 2008 07:27:42 GMT

Most say that love is French
As being in a park bench
Others say that love is Spanish
because is kind of hottish

Now you are a girl
More beautiful than a pearl
with a mind very sleek
What language do you speak?

I am a clever guy
With a keen eye
I like what I see
Now connection is the key

Do you like what you see?
Then you have to agree
We speak the language of love
We are proud of

Original Poem: My daughter Jenifer

Mon, 14 Jan 2008 06:20:09 GMT

I know that I am not perfect
But I do not want to disconnect
You are a daughter of mine
Indeed that you are fine

When I see your guide,
All I can do is grin,
Somewhere down deep inside,
I see myself within.

You'll never really know, my dear,
Just how much you mean to me,
A father's love, it’s now so clear,
That only my heart can see.

All the things we have dealt,
were not always that good,
I'd take back all the pain you've felt,
Only if I could.

(c) Carlos Reyes 2005
