Creative Writing, Poetry, Rhymes, and Song Lyrics about God, Family, Heroes, Good vs Evil, and Safety from Predators, dedicated to my sons.

Opposites Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Star Trek Theme Song

Opposites Attract!

Spock, and I,

go together,

oh, so very well;

He is very logical,

and I am an emotional

roller coaster

from Heaven,

or from hell!

Opposites Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Boundaries

He is level-headed

and walks

an ever rigid line;

I swerve to the left or right,

since my boundaries

are blurry,

and often

difficult to define.

Opposites Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Self-Control

Spock is sophisticated

and carries

such amazing self-control;

I am spontaneous

and free,

and ever which way

the thunder groans

is the way I tend to roll!

Opposites Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Emotions

I like to awaken

him, though feelings

he has not;

And, he likes to quiet

and calm me,

when deep

within emotions

I am so frantically caught.

Opposites Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Balance

Opposites are Spock, and I,

though we balance

each other out;

I, displaying a full

spectrum of emotions,

and he, showing me what

an unemotionally logical life

is really all about!

~

Opposites Really Do Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Opposites Attract!

When Spock is on a Mission,

he is always calm, cool,

and in-check;

Yet, I have an ongoing

Focus and Attention

Deficit.

His memory is spotless,

impeccable, and never,

ever suspect;

But, I need to take constant notes,

or else nothing will I even

vaguely recollect!

Spock is attentive to each detail

on his every Mission,

and admired with great respect;

However, my own thoughts

wander, everywhere, and often

do not entirely connect!

His Missions continually

create a successful,

respected affect;

And, he logically guides me,

so that the Mission details,

I, myself, do not accidentally forget!

Spock is dedicated to

his every goal, and each one

he will loyally protect;

But, my mission is Spock, himself,

and it is him, whom I will never,

ever neglect!

~

Opposites Really Do Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Opposites Attract!

Spock really helps keep me together, especially with all the important Missions in which we are responsible! But, I also am of benefit to him, as well. I try to keep him in-touch with his more “human side”. He likes that about me... I think.

Thank you, Brenda! (Spock says: “Duly Noted”).

Hugs!

Such a cute way of telling this poem.

I enjoyed the read.

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on January 30, 2019:

Thank you, Mark. What a delightful comment from you, as always.

Mark Tulin from Ventura, California on January 30, 2019:

Sounds like a perfect balance and not unlike many happy couples I know.

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on December 29, 2017:

Thank you, and I hope you had a fantastic Christmas, too. Yes, I did as I spent it with my family. There is nothing better than being with my family.

Yes, Spock let me a present under my Christmas tree. It was an Electronic Price Scanner, and a computer program on “How to Better Budget Money”. Lol.

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on December 29, 2017:

LOL...Dream On.. I think there is more to Spock than meets the eye, really. Ha haha.

DREAM ON on December 29, 2017:

Your writings go in such detail I can see every conversation going back and forth. I am curious how much time did it take to complete this mission? You did a wonderful job from beginning to end. You kept my interest. I kept on waiting Spock to finally break down. In time I think he will come around. Fantastic! I grew up watching Star Trek. Captain Kirk would be jealous of you taking the spot light.

DREAM ON on December 28, 2017:

I was wondering if Spock left a Christmas gift under your tree ? Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and so much fun.

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on December 20, 2017:

Larry,

Your company is the best Christmas gift, ever!

Happiness,

Tamara xxxooo

Larry Nall from Henderson, Nevada on December 19, 2017:

And a joy for me to read your lovely prose. Keep writing so beautifully and I'll keep reading.

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on December 19, 2017:

Larry,

There is a crisscrossed paradox looming throughout your comment. Lol... It’s always a joy for me to have your kindly visit :-)

Larry Nall from Henderson, Nevada on December 19, 2017:

Not unemotional as Spock, but Logic often rules and a calmness presides most of the time. Have always been a fan of Spock and Spader!!! Hmm, maybe I'm not as opposite as I think.

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on November 18, 2017:

Bill,

Thank you, my friend:-)

James Spader and Spock rock!

William Kovacic from Pleasant Gap, PA on November 18, 2017:

Oh, I enjoyed this one, Tamara! I like the way you used the pictures and captions to add to it. Well done!

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on November 16, 2017:

Thank you, Chitrangada! Glad you enjoyed it :-)

Chitrangada Sharan from New Delhi, India on November 16, 2017:

Very cool and interesting poem! Loved the pictures and the reference to Star Trek.

Thanks for sharing!

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on November 14, 2017:

Ah, Hari! Happy Children’s Day!

Your comment kicks off my day to a wonderful start. How sweet are your words.

Thank you!

Big Hugs to All Children!

Love,

Tamara

So happy children's day to you.

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on November 13, 2017:

Thank you, Dora :-) Yes, I really do hope Spock comes around, and does not consider it too illogically sound to “call in sick” once in awhile to one of his Missions so that we might, perhaps, watch a romantic movie together, now and then (preferably Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory).

I have often dreamt of being an Oompa Loompa. I do not think Spock would think this to be an entirely logical career choice, however... lol.

Dora Weithers from The Caribbean on November 13, 2017:

Well done, Tamara! Pictures and all. I think Spock will come around--sometime.

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on November 12, 2017:

Flourish,

How true! I dated two engineers in the past, at two separate times, of course, and though they don’t display much emotion, they definitely get done exactly what needs to be done.

They are extremely efficient. You might not necessarily get much width of shoulder-space to cry on, but they will build you a house.

LOL... Interesting bunch, those engineers :-)

Tamara Yancosky (author) from Uninhabited Regions on November 12, 2017:

Thank you, Hari :-) Spock is fun!

FlourishAnyway from USA on November 12, 2017:

It sounds like you need an engineer if Spock is otherwise engaged. My husband and brother are engineers and my daughter is on her way to becoming one. What I love most about the rational, logical engineer is that you can specify what you want and if it makes sense they’ll deliver. (Now it may not be with empathy, but they’ll deliver.) They operate very much on behavior/consequence with low drama. Drama doesn’t make sense to them.

Hari Prasad S from Bangalore on November 12, 2017:

Coolest writing. So funny. :-) original stuff tamara.
