Green Tea Parties and Lilies: A Collection of Rather Assorted Poetry

A Jar of Marbles

I have a jar of marbles

Some red, some blue, some green

They all have a meaning 

To my life or in between.

Red is for the angry moments

The times where I get mad

Feeling steam come out the ears

And after feeling bad.

Blue is for the sad moments

When tears fall down my face

Water droplets soaking clothes

And paper all over the place

Green is for the jealous moments

When I wish selfishly

Hoping I could have what they do

And yearning carelessly.

Yellow is for the happy moments

When I feel so incredibly jubilant

Bouncing up and down for joy

Feeling so extremely exuberant.

Purple is for the peaceful moments

The time when I feel sound

Happy, calm, tranquil, serene

And placid all around.

White is for the important moments

The times where my life changed course

For the better rather than the worst

And not feeling remorse. 

Black is for the depressing moments

The times where I felt like ending

When I felt things start to become unraveled

And my wounds are slowly mending.

That's my jar of marbles

My personal life experience

Happy, sad, angry, jealous

It'll make all the difference.
