MICHAEL

Where the Road ends and the Journey Begins
That is where Newfound Friendships Start
When the Journey of Life takes us on different Bends
We open up our Minds and our bleeding Heart

There's a constant opportunity to make Friends throughout our Life
And when we realize we're not alone it helps us with this Strife
With our Eyes straight forward and Feet march On
We know we'll never be Forlorn

For Friends are Friends Forevermore
And this is what Life has in Store

So we come together now
And Welcome everyone Somehow
Join our Family in Unity
And the Light we have the World to See

WORDS OF ANTHRAX

From the dark matter of our minds,
Where shadows dance and our words collide.
Our new found friendship,
Shakes the devil's hand with defiance
Defeating all with our cosmic rhyme,
Us poets formed, born from ether.

Poured from elements of truth.
In the depths of our souls,
We find solace in the words we weave,
From the verses that flow like rivers of ink,
Connecting us, binding us,
In a tapestry of shared emotion.

Through the valleys of despair,
And the peaks of elation,
We stand together, warriors of the written word.
In the silence of the night,
Our voices resonate,
Echoing through the universe,
A symphony of expression.

Our pens are our weapons,
Our tongues are sharp as blades,
Cutting through the darkness,
Illuminating the path before us.
For we are the poets,
The bards of the unseen,
The chroniclers of the soul.

In the realm of our creation,
We are bound by no constraints,
No limits to the power of our words.

ASHLEY

Strangers turned friends

We never knew each other like this before
But learning more about each other was making me love you more
We came from different backgrounds and different places
Different point of views through different faces

Strange how we are from around the world
You have gifts in many things including words
Proud to call you family
Proud to be your own

I love my new friends from around the globe

🫂

NUEL

Where the road leadth
Where the way showeth
Meeting with a real stranger
Grabbing me in my hands.

Days by day past.
We get along line
Not a stranger in a rotary strange place
We become one and lead be in justice
To lead each other from a strange place
Hope brought us together and we broke forth from strange land
Life because way light
Our paths have a straight path

🫂

ROCKMINI

In the online world, where strangers meet,
On screens, they connect, a digital feat.
Through social spaces, a new kind of dance,
Meeting online, a modern chance.

In texts and memes, a language unfolds,
A virtual world where stories are told.
In this digital place, a friendly grace,
Meeting strangers, in a cyber embrace.

🫂

PROVIDENCE

Hip lands afar and sights unseen,
Where paths cross, as if in dreams,
Strangers meet where the light weaves,
In strange places, like floating leaves.

With a nod, a smile, or a gentle word,
A silent pact is softly heard.
In the hum of life, they find a space,
A brief encounter, a shared grace.

Eyes lock in silent conversation,
Hearts skip in quiet elation.
In the meeting of strangers in strange places,
Lies the magic of life's unfathomable graces.

For in the moment that paths align,
The world seems gentle, the stars benign.
And when they part, to their own stories,
They carry a piece of each other's glories.
PROVIDENCE/ANTHRAX
Malignant in nature, raging wars.
Defending each other, even when hearts are torn.
Blood brothers and sisters,
Like fierce Viking roars.
Even Nordic Gods couldn't calm our storms.

For we are one and one for all,
Scattered maybe, but stand strong and tall

🫂

ELIZABETH JOSHUA

A meeting of strangers, in a strange new place,
Gathered together, by chance or fate.
They come from all walks, of life and land,
To share their stories, to lend a hand.
They may be different, in every way,

But they find a bond, that will not sway.
They share their laughter, and their tears,
And in each other's hearts, they find their peers.
They may be strangers, with unknown names,
But in their souls, they share the same aims.
To find a friend, to find a home,
In a strange new place

🫂

DESTINY JOHNSON

Strangers meet in strange places,
Their eyes connect in curious ways,
A moment shared, a spark ignites,
They're drawn together by fate's sweet ties.
They talk and laugh, a bond is formed,
A friendship blossoms, love is born.
The universe conspires to bring them together,
Their hearts entwined, their lives forever.
They travel life's journey, hand in hand,
Facing life's challenges, side by side,
Their love is unbreakable, their bond unshaken,
A connection made, a love unspoken.

🫂

JOSEPHINE

Two strangers meet,
In a place they've never seen.
They look at each other,
As if in a dream.
They say hello,
And make small talk.
But in their hearts,
They feel a spark.
The conversation flows,
As if they're old friends.
They find they have much in common,
As the night descends.
They share their stories,
And their deepest fears.
At that moment,
Their bond becomes clear.
They part ways,
With a smile on their face.
But in their hearts,
They know they've found

🫂

MERCY

In a far-off land,
Neither one knew,
The other's hand.
They spoke no words,
Their hearts are unsure,
But something sparked,
A mutual allure.
They walked in silence,
Their minds are a whirl,
Lost in their thoughts,
Of this strange world.
And then they stopped,
Their eyes did meet,
A moment shared,
A connection sweet.
Without a word,
They turned and left,
But something changed,
In each one's breast.
Though neither knew,
The other's name

🫂

TEMPLE

In a realm of mystery, where strangers intertwine,
In peculiar places, destinies align.
Unfamiliar faces, stories yet to unfold,
In the unknown, new adventures hold.
Journeys collide, in a twist of my fate,
In the strange, where connections await.
Through the mysteries of the unfamiliar,
Bonds form, hearts grow familiar.
In foreign lands, beneath unfamiliar skies,
Strangers converge, where magic lies.
Exploring the depths of the unseen,
In the peculiar, where wonders convene.
A tapestry woven of chance and grace,
In the meeting of strangers, in a strange place.

🫂

MATTHEW

In a place unknown.
They stand and stare at each other,
A little unsure.
But as they begin to speak,
A bond starts to form.
They share their stories,
And their hopes and dreams.
Though they are strangers,
They feel a kinship deep.
A connection that transcends time,
That reaches the soul.
They part ways with new friends,
And their hearts feel whole.
Did I capture the way that sometimes strangers can become friends, even in unexpected

🫂

DAMIAN T HALLAN

How we live closed minded as humans upon the Earth puts our World in an ever present danger

Without understanding and compassion there is nothing left but disappointment and disheartening anger

Look not to the Heavens above for the only true reasons to show love towards a fellow stranger

Remembering this simple mantra increases the chances that we will all leave an eternal legacy of a pleasant planet blessed with blooms and a transcendent garden

🫂

MOJAMEEL 👑

Check it, we're the Creative Poets crew,
Met in strange places, where words just flew.

No handshakes or hugs, just vibes on the screen,
In this wordy journey, where we convene.

Strangers turned family, in this digital space,
Creative Poets, keeping it real, embracing the chase.

No formalities here, just poetic faces,
Meeting in strange places, in our own cool spaces

🫂

BRIDGET DIRISU

Friendship truly begins at the crossroads and they illuminate our journey through life.
May the bonds we make keep the light in us and guide us through joy and strife.
Together, we will find the glory and power of the world within ourselves.
We continue to welcome new relationships and receive the light of friendship.

🫂

AMAKA

In strange places they wandered, hand in hand,
Exploring the mysteries of this foreign land.
Each step they took, a new adventure began,
Together they discovered, under the same sun.

Through winding streets and hidden lanes,
They laughed and talked, breaking all chains.
Different backgrounds, yet so much to share,
A bond forged in moments, beyond compare.

So cherish those encounters, unexpected and rare,
For in strange places, love can blossom anywhere.
Embrace the beauty of the unknown's embrace,
And let fate guide you to your special place.

COLLINS

The worst of people I ever met was in religious places
All covered in self acclaimed holiness
Self righteous and easy to point fingers at others
While the best people I met
Was in tough and difficult places
Strange places
Tattoos, scars and pain
Prisons, streets, Ghettos
We all bonded like we've known each other for years

MEETING OF STRANGERS IN STRANGE PLACES

It is God's _way_ ,
'The mingling of vast hantle of _humanity_
In multiplicious decent & immoral___ _gay_
And morose places, THUS, virtuous is procured jointly with _severity_
Who can *deny* *destiny*?
To 'The Fabulator', of every life's ecstasy & *agony*
Him alone knows why she came embellished in deceptional _musk_
Either why HE unmind one's heart to the hungry _vulture_
'It all', is for a reason in this *deadly* *dusk*
I noticed it after so long suffered from villainous _allure_
We invite ethical & badass by our *attention*
And weep nor jive from the fruit of our *attraction*

ARTIST EXTRAORDINARY

What is it about him that captivates me so?
Mr my heart's thief doesn't know
Dawn till dusk he's all I think of
I wonder if I captured his mind,as he stimulated mine

Surely I am but a passing thought in his head
Pathetic, you might say
I think I have been charmed by strong juju
Can't escape this sense of deja ju

Funny how one person can get you intoxicated
Someone please break this spell
Such heavenly hell
From the beginning I knew there's no possibility

Got heartbreak before first meeting
More came each worse than the last
It's not my fault, I tried so hard
Yet...I fell hard

He's just a crush yes I know
Maybe he knows,signs were shown
Thought I was over it, just avoiding it
Ignorance is bliss so it seems

Surely this will end
The butterflies in here
But until then this is the conclusion
Impossible reality perfect delusion
He's mine in this wonderful illusion
