Contemplation

On September 9, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Poetry34 Comments

Do you ever
feel like screaming?
Your heart, mind
and soul
are filled to capacity
with frustration,
ready for explosion
You’re seeking
a solution
to your equation
but problem solving
needs consideration
and concentration
to reach fruition
What is your intention?
To lose the connection
or to move forward
with full participation
and determination?
My suggestion
is to assess
the situation
Dispose of
this emotion
Take action
by using your
Imagination
bringing this
discussion
to completion

🙂

Uncharted

Will new doors
dare to open
if what they reveal
is unexpected?

A chance worth taking
to feel more connected
or a daunting challenge
when one feels dejected

For those who live in darkness
afraid to embrace the light
believing darkness
is their only right

Then despair settles with dust
on the lonely shelf
leaving Hope to wonder
where the entry is
to redeem itself

Beautiful Existence (Belated re-post for Earth Day) :)

On April 23, 2013April 24, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Nature24 Comments

Flowers bloom
Bees buzz
Red bellied robins sing
just because

Crickets chirp
Frogs croak
Butterflies gracefully float
around the majestic oak

Wind blows
Trees sway
Ladybugs save gardens
hunting their prey

Earth moves
Ocean splashes
Thunder loudly rumbles
while lightning flashes

Nature entertains
abundantly each day
Life’s colors and compositions
God’s gifts we praise

FINDING INNER STRENGTH (re-post)

On March 7, 2013March 7, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Inspirational27 Comments

It’s finally time to SHOUT
“Enough is Enough”
To dust off shields of armor
and flip the switch to “tough”

With every step in each new day
it’s too easy to fret and worry
Wasting a God given moment
instead of cheering in His glory

Toss those words and thoughts
that surely weigh us down
A lighter load will bring us smiles
and erase those dreadful frowns

So, arm in arm, let’s move forward
for strength in perseverance
Do not relent to downward slips
Ignore the interference!

I hope this brings you strength
in whatever you’re going through in life.

A Choice

On February 12, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Inspirational, Life34 Comments

It’s in front of you, if you look real close,
and as clear as the vase that holds the rose
You don’t want to miss this profound craze
grab your readers, don’t be in a daze
It’s like a flower, so friendly and cheerful
Go ahead, seek it out and don’t be fearful
Remember the doe and her baby you saw?
After taking this step, you’ll be in awe
When you fall in love for the very first time
nothing can compare to your feeling of sublime
That’s how you’ll feel when you take this chance
You’ll want to get up and dance
Even still, you question my words
Believe me when I say you’ll be singing with the birds
Your life will be changed and you’ll feel truly blessed
When you look real close, you’ll find Happiness
