Poem
Good new,good news He said to me 'I have the power to set you free' 'Come ,along this path we'll walk', I listened closely as He talked; Eternal life and 'new life' within upon Him I place my sin, peace,wholeness and integrity Free to become uniquely me; Empowered to make a fresh start. Placed as a son,I became a part, co-heir within His kingdom life no more to struggle with inner strife. Good news,so true a message clear I turned back to God,and banished fear. Be in nature's paradise- a living chaos, harmony without symmetry words like window panes crystal clear,never opaque- penned for heavens' sake essential stepping stones in the stream of self-knowledge FULL CIRCLE Childish eyes all bright and new, all encompassing,alive, unending days,years ahead, sleep comes easy in our bed; Taut skin,strength of vibrant youth, old age remote and unthought, the future is tomorrow; Our seed into another soon springs forth and generates rings to the family tree, pa to granpa,comes to be; Then at this one step removed we step aside and observe, reflect,look back,not ahead.. sleep,less easy,in our bed. UNSEEN PILLARS Love knows no boundaries within its heart, once given in intimacy,cannot cede an inch of territory to depart the mutual promise, bound close by deed; Love in its passion,holds all things clear yet lays wide open,giving its all and lives its life ,trusting without fear a loyalty innate,of instinct's call; With faithfulness it lays foundations sure against all tribulation and heartbreak, death's tempest certain storm,it can endure, held by unseen pillars that cannot shake; With neither rule,nor scale can we measure the height,depth,breadth of this priceless treasure OUT OF THE BOX The end may become a beginning, to go away can be to arrive, life,as nature has its seasons, sometimes short but oftimes long; To sense the aroma of change, to experiment a new attire, walking without a map, looking forward,neverback; The past,as yesterday,will ever be remembered,blessed,but filed away, a stage,a stepping stone a springboard to another day. Today is done,tomorrow will be a future adventure,rests with thee. long parting kiss- imprinted upon my lips her lingering heat old,neglected,careworn..but still swinging An opal milky way- footprint in the night A symbol in the sky- pathway to a king. Beach so crowded today Everyman and his wife are here And no place to play Cricket will be out I fear; Hope the sun will come out Brolly is at the ready Look one or two are about As it's raining rather steady; Now is that a lightning flash Keep calm,must not cry, Earth and heavens seem to crash Thunder echos in the sky; Bathers,now in ones and twos Into the ebbing flow Now perhaps time for me to choose, Get ready to have a go; Or stay here,read and snooze Alone he sat thinking of this of that whys and wherefores- His yesterdays faded now but alive as today's newspaper- His tomorrows yet to be veiled,unknown waiting the thrill expectation of the new experiences change the same again but different AUTUMN GOLD crumbling deadwood in composting leaves, retirement brings a life of ease tears flood my cheek I whisper au-revoir- winter clouds my soul AN ANACROSTIC VERSE some poetic forms can read sO either,front or backwarD will make an odE anacrostic- an acrostic where last instead for first letter of each line forms a word or phrase If ever, words fall on deaf ears If ever, face is washed with tears If ever, voice is expressing fears Ever,this be our choice, in EARS,FACE,MOUTH as Satan nears- hear Jesus voice after George Herbert worthy workshop of words veritable vocabulary of verse- syllable songs,short+terse formal or free perfect potage of poetry a chemin blanc ramble along blackberry bramble with buzzard on high o'er fields prairie dry; sunflower black,seed in the sun, sweetcorn husks,nearly done wild apple and pear tempt climbers who dare; walnut ripen in husks as afternoon turns to dusk Nature's early warning call Ete's soon will be Fall images,with or without rhyme; a moment of life,frozen in time
