Old Friends

by Beautiful Chaos   Mar 4, 2009


My fingers trace your golden glow
Though years have worn you through
Life can't get more beautiful
Than lying here with you

You bring some sense of sanity
Though chaos lives within
Madness is a simple thing
When not in your own skin

Imaginations swept away
Heart beats fast then slow
Enchanted by the little things
Our friendship did bestow

We gaze upon the moon at night
Sink into the stars
Fall asleep and never question
Knowing what is ours

Tuck you back into your spot
Until your memory calls
Glad to find you once again
And sink into your walls

(Done for contest, had to write about an object without actually stating what it was. Can you guess what it is?)

    I also have my guess and it is in the bedroom right? Nicely written with great flow as always! Can't wait to see if my guess is right!

    Jenn you really have me thinking here girly ... lol

    Ok first I thought maybe a "little vibrating going on" ya know because of the Old Friends. but then I read it again and I thought it might be a diary.

    You bring some sense of sanity
    Though chaos lives within
    ^^^
    I thought a diary has chaos inside and we keep our sanity by venting.

    But so many more things directed me in the "vibrating buddy" way

    I can't wait to find out what this is and you gave me a great idea for our "solitary denied" challenge.

    Pm me what it is if you get a chance ... the suspense is killing me ... lol

    Great read,

    Oh dear I bet I have guessed and what a clever way of wording it. I think really mostly women will get the answer lol.
    You have done a wonderful job on this without making it sound distasteful. Too bad they can't mow grass though lol. Seriously a great write. Hilarious subject

    Ahh!!! To be honest, I have no idea what the object you are talking about is. There were so many different ideas running through my head, but none of them seem right. First I thought it was the sun, then maybe a golden retriever. I still have no idea!

    Ok, next, I must say I did enjoy this poem, and even though I couldn't figure out what you were talking about, I had a lot of fun guessing. One small thing I needed to say,
    the rhyme "star" and "our" well, it wasn't completely strong in my opinion, and that's only because my pronunciation would be different from yours. Other than that, it was fantastic. It was really good descriptions, I'm just not that good of a guesser!

    If I knew the answer, I think I would be able to make the right connections. By any chance is it a stuffed animal? Lol, Ok I give up! Seriously what is it ??..
