"Autobiographies of great nations are written in three manuscripts – a book of deeds, a book of words, and a book of art. Of the three, I would choose the latter as truest testimony." - Sir Kenneth Smith, Great Civilisations

"I must write each day without fail, not so much for the success of the work, as in order not to get out of my routine." - Leo Tolstoy

I have never believed that one should wait until one is inspired because I think the pleasures of not writing are so great that if you ever start indulging them you will never write again. - John Updike

"The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it." - J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan

Poetry is the shadow cast by our streetlight imaginations." - Lawrence Ferlinghetti

Poems by Shannon Eason

 
 
 
 
Love Between Friends
 
Love between friends is
 
So hard to live with because
 
You can't be yourself no matter
 
How hard you try so you cry yourself
 
To sleep by the pain of loving a friend.
 
Love between friends is the unwise thing
 
To do because in the end you'll break yours
 
And his heart into a million pieces and the
 
Friendship will be over within minutes.

Love
 
 
What is love? Love is where
 
Two people fell in love with
 
Somebody that they can not
 
Live without feeling like they
 
Are dead or on another planet.
 
Love is the reason why people
 
Have broken hearts and tears in
 
Their eyes. Love is trouble to cause
 
People pain of both happy and hurt.
