Premium Member Walk In Woods

Walk in woods enriching and serene
Draws gratitude quieting garrulous mind

Tranquil forests of breathtaking peaks
Whisper softly building profound links

Soaring trees of Oaks, Conifers and Ponderosa Pines
Form deep rooted networks in robust mountain brims

Sweet bonding and affection of charming mallard pair
Teaches true admiration and persistent care

Meandering streams of small dazzling cascades
Hum cheery tunes flowing through rocky beds

Fallen scattered countless pine needles
Form soft, cushioned carpet for elated ramblers

Cool breezes of fresh whistling wind
Blow newness carrying soothing feeling

Tumbled trees and twigs of many kinds
Show synchronous blending of death and life

Piles of shrunken crinkly dropped leaves
Feed trees and shrubs nourishing meals

Tapping of Acorn woodpecker on oak tree
Breaks silence showing power of tenacity

Dancing butterflies in wild flower fields
Propagate growth of new survives

Playful dog’s innocent, bouncy frisks
Bring harmony to body, soul and mind

In mysteries of mountains, woods, and water
Mind gets lost and soul is awaken

Enchanting landscape of loving Mother Earth
Breeds profound grace showing interdependent world…

New Morning Delight

it has been a long time since i made you breakfast
we forgot to remember to remember what should never forget
it is quite pitiful it took me almost losing you to realize what has been lost
i even remembered the salsa for your cheesy scrambled eggs
i am just now noticing that have have become even more beautiful with age
the maturation of your appearance the the spiked cinnamon tea of my day
when i kiss you good morning, it turns into a powerful ****** on my tongue
sometimes life is a wonderful thing flipped and in reverse
i never anticipated us missing each other so
now i want a pina colada understanding finally what rupert holmes was putting down
the rain has perfect timing and so does the perfectly strategized warmth of your mouth
i can definitely finished making breakfast later
with what you are doing to me now, i will be your servant, your chauffeur, and your waiter
tomorrow we ascend in the much needed renovated, updated, and upgraded changes
the view is perfect, and Blessing of Loving You and Being Loved By You is Improvingly Assured

Premium Member Thanksgiving

Names, gestures, and words so oft are empty
In actions, we find a true meaning worthy to knife
To grow is to walk a serene valley you fill of plenty

Of hollow praise and false flattery, be weary
We shed the skins of our former, unripe life
Names, gestures, and words so oft are empty

Our wills are rivers, carving through stony indifference
Acts of love and words of kindness cut through strife
To grow is walking a serene valley you fill of plenty

Seeking truth in every course, holding every moment near
Learning to read the signs that speak beyond lies, run rife
Names, gestures, and words so oft are empty

Now, in this quest for meaning, stripped of all pretense,
So give thanks; awakened to join the dance found underlife
To grow is to walk a serene valley you fill of plenty

Become the silence of your actions, pure and steady,
Find yourselves, your souls, burning fate's own woodknife
Names, gestures, and words so oft are empty,
To grow is to walk a serene valley you fill of plenty

An Odd Reunion of Revelation

'hello
nice to see you again
you are still as beautiful as ever
i see the ring still
i just wanted to say hey
enjoy your time with your family
good seeing you'

i stare at her behind as she slowly walks away
she catches me staring and smiles
i smile back and depart from the gas station
when the past is through, it's definitely through
sometimes one chance is all that you will get the get it right
when it doesn't work, then it just doesn't work
you have to let things that are now.....be what they are now

as i open the door to get into my suv,
i feel a tap on my shoulder
she looks at me with tears in her eyes and gives me a hug
wishes and what was lost are all reciprocated by the both of us
without a word said, she turns around and rushes back to her car
i shake my head and smile at the fact that she still wears the same perfume that i introduced her to
i still have the 'Lefty' pen that she gave me sitting on my writing table
i guess those are our aids of thought
i leave the gas station smiling

Premium Member Light Kissed

"Light Kissed"


Light kissed her through the veil
Come tempest on the beach of morning sun
With Gold on your naked feet
Life has again for you begun 
Like waves to shore
You’ll meet my kiss
Slow and full 
Wet succulent with salty bliss
And more my sweet 
The Realm of Long Forgotten Love
Like Dark Green Ivy 
Life has renewed growth
covers your ground stony,
it’s swift and powerful runs
o’er Wet Green Irish Moss 
While Briny Blue and Amythest Periwinkles blink
and Emerald Green Abalone and Black Bearded Lips open 
to sweet salt the wounds in 
their pale then deepest darkest delectables
bristling Sea Urchin Pink 
luring in Odin
And marbled Grey Geckos change their colours 
From your spring to drink 
Dragonflies lick Life's luscious lips of flame hungry fire
in the Gloaming mist
Lust and Desire
pressing urgency 
LOVE 
is let loose
held tight by the wrists
The Albatross has flown higher and higher
A great journey for you 
both it and the Ancient Mariner have sung
Mornings kiss Twilight
Sleep brings dreams and delivers
Titania and Oberon 
who watch over
Soul's solitary march 
through Dark Night and it's wrath
To walk forever Aphrodite’s path?
A nightmare of a pardon,
Be blessed with Persephone’s heart 
Athena’s wisdom, Demeter’s courage
All dance within your blood, you are whole
Life sings like a Lark
Walks with you through the mirrors
Long silk Alabaster curtains part 
Warm Velvet uncovered at last
Come tempest on the beach of morning sun
With Gold on your naked feet
Life for you 
my 
Sweet of The Just
once elusive
now silently and swiftly 
Light Kissed

LIFE
has
Begun

Seasons of Life

Seasons of life
The hard work 
The pains 
The suffering
The hardship
The dreams 
The struggles 
The fights 
The grieves
The disappointment
The failures
The intimidation
The betrayals
The fears 
The anger
The needs 
The lacks 
The poverty
The cry's 
The prayers 
All were given to me by life
All was allowed for my growth
All are inline with my ways from my progress 
Up to my success 
All is necessary for me in life
To be able and capable 
For the sake of my survival 
I got to pass through the 
Seasons of life 


Seasons of life 
Dont underate my steps 
While I walk out my ways in life 
I might not be your favorite
But I deserve my flowers
You must not be an enemy
Because I have to survive 
The universe can serve us both better 
If we take life the ways it is 
Despite our realities of today 
I deserve my crown in life ??
So please let me be in peace
While I walk out my ways in life cos 
The glory 
The happiness
The tears of joy 
The laughter 
The Thanksgiving
The celebration
The victory
The accomplishments
The humbleness 
The inspiration
The creativity
The energy
All was possible because of 
My love and sacrifice to life 
All made me the man I am 
There is no Best teacher In life 
If you never pass through the 
Seasons of life

The Shadows of Water Through Glass

"The Shadows of Water through Glass"



Schools in,
looking for meaning
in the Shadows of Water through Glass

Observing
the scaled Gold Gifilte fish
with a minced mind stuffed inside its own skin

Swimming in circles, a delicacy
devouring its own scéals
looking for denotation

From the faces of 
schooled fish habitually weary, leering
in the Shadows of Water through Glass

The shadows are dissoluble
the minced mind swallows its own tales 
rebirthing like a Russian Doll

disconnected, in gravitas
it continues to swim
an appetiser for the bigger things

(LadyLabyrinth / 2020)

"In Gravitas" / Apparat / Lyrics

"The Process revealed, which road is chosen?
Meaning is broken, the question never comes
The heartless believe, passion is misused
All the feelings abused, the answer never comes"

Premium Member Champagne Rain

He plants black seed of love in me
So deep it deposits destined dreams
Waking white flowing river stream
Of liquid love abandoned by the weak

The weak ones who toyed with black gold
Playing me a slot machine for the most
Delaying cream climax and green growth
Looting consuming that what I give most

Peach palm rubs on his back
Little kisses in his heart
Love bites unites a candy snack
Black lovers forever dark star

I find peace in his pearly smile
Runs so deep like majestic Nile
Come to me lover when you can
Meant for each other like promise land

Walking by faith despite my fright
That your forever kiss is just this tonight
Leaving me to reminisce in teal time
Missing your licks you missing mine

I prayed for you and now you have come
Why waste time on fear, you are the one
Planting love seeds and warming like sun
Calming purple seas of love you flow from

I feel hazel hope in your kiss
Sweet like cocoa but twice as thick
I don’t red regret a thing we did
Make it champagne rain again I insist.

Premium Member Where's the Dunny Paper ?????

They created a scamdemic
what a filthy nasty lie
Then they lined 'em up to get the jab
or else you're gonna die

Side affects are bodily
but there is another scam
Shortages of dunny paper
create a traffic jam

One would have thought that food 
would be the major focus
But no the human race
has lost all form of locus

So me I'm running where
the vegetation's lush
Not so hard to find some green 
when I'm caught short in the bush

But where the growth of trees and plants
are often rather sparse
Hard to find material
on which to wipe my ass

I stand in awe whilst I do watch
the rush for toilet paper
Don't they realise it's all part of a 
dirty criminal caper

There are places I have utilised
to aid my body function
No doubt I would have spread some seed 
I do it without unction

Garden shrubs on city streets 
provide a hiding spot
Luckily I've not been caught
they'd think it;s ME!!!! who's lost the plot

Sometimes I've utilised a culvert 
number one or two
You've gotta take whatever's
when you're busting for a poo

And when there's need to clean one's self
whilst running in the scrub
Smooth stones or straight sticks I've often used
why don't you join the club

Footnote: A stern warning from an old bushie 
who has spent years around a camp fire with a billy of tea
NEVER STIR YOUR TEA WITH A STRAIGHT STICK1111

TAINTED

*TAINTED* 

Butterfly, spread your wings to stair my womb
When everything said my life  will end
Unbothered yet growing with love
Your posture like a queen, my sorrow, your Joy
Happy to see the world,  while I birth you in pain
When heads popped out yours was dangling legs
     Oh! My little feeble
Wonders from my praises 

Detail, growth is inevitable
How my bosom missed your whispers
Promise, to live untainted
Save your sanity from all Adams
Bats of divers colours stalks like Leopard
Pounds on their prey, when life is as sweet as honey
    Oh! My sainted gift 
Discern the gifts From mortal beings

My Gold, I blew the chance and soiled the linen
I'm hunted, choking for breath
Fear becomes my companion
For the days, when my hidden self will bloom
This eagle's beak and sworded claws
Will pierce my heart for all to see
     Oh! Arise, you mothering life
Save your womb from painful cries
