Moonlight's Bright Tonight, Part 1

Moonlight’s bright tonight.
Let’s go outside and play
In the fields of the village.
Morning’s far away.

Still crisp air holds its breath
In silence as we watch
Moonlit shadows creeping west,
Forever out of reach.

We try to chase the shadows
Running through the trees,
Standing tall like rocket ships
Against the lonely seas.

Come along and run with me,
The fields await our gaze.
There lay mysteries

We stumble, then stand up tall,
New horizons wait.

Love, version 1: reflections on personal experiences of love, inspired by reading bell hooks

Wounded by its lack
Distrustful of it 
Inured to its absence 
In thrall to its allure
Fooled by its simulacrum
Estranged from it 
Paralysed by fear of losing it
Inexorably exposed to it 
Resolved against it 
Consumed by longing for it
A scholar to its foreign texts 
A slave to its compulsions 
Compelled to search for it
Forever 
Hopeful

1 reason why

I am the rot beguiling the saccharine summer hue
I am the self in selfish sorrow, sullying the morning dew
Sickened with the mortal blips of emotion
To fall with the fragility of flesh hipped erosion 
Hipped bone beneath browned bandage
Honed the hand hither, 'ncase fickle flesh cannot manage
T'stand aground the mortal vantage 
Health t'sickness, worn to wear,

The Autumn Times - Part 1

I never want to forget what fall time feels like when I was able to spend it with you. It's a feeling, an emotion, that I will never be able to replicate. An emotion that has no name, I couldn't pin it down if I tried. Just a weightlessness found in a state of pure

Premium MemberKnowing The End Affects The Now - 1 Thessalonians 5: 1-11

God's word declares that the end will come
to know that Jesus will return
this is for the believer's comfort
believing your pleas, He won't spurn

Living here in the here and now
affects our endeavours to serve
looking upwards to the great day
turns us to follow on full of nerve

Remind ourselves of Jesus' sacrifice
dying in our place for our salvation

Was the article illusive
In transparent approach
The suitor in study

There she isn't

Falun Dafa Will Prevail, part 1

1992, Master Li Hongzhi’s benevolence shone through
To the public in China his amazing teaching grew
Falun Dafa emerged from prehistoric time
To guide Earth’s people to be true, good and kind

People practiced peacefully in parks each day
Before work, school, and even play
Cleansing their bodies with the five gentle moves
Cultivation of mind and heart was true

Morality and virtue

Premium MemberMoment No 1 HER POV

I only need about $8 of gas
Enough to get home and get back to work the next day
I’m tired and don’t feel like waiting for the tank to fill up
Of course, I have to go inside because the card reader is being dumb
Usually, I would just leave but I’m too tired to care
I’m walking inside

Premium MemberThoughts Running Free 1

looking through mind’s eye
as if in a trance 
perhaps due to circumstance
or perchance the last dance

then again on the fly
without condescending
blending all elements in sight
I start to cry

wolf wolf the fear has arrived
disguised but still here
feel the fear

blowing in the winds of fate unknowing
death seeks to end the lie
just die bye bye die

then come again

Volcano Run part 1 - The Ride to the Mountain

We ventured out one summer morn
to meet up with the rising sun,
the trip began at Castle Rock;
we joined the others for the run.

Inside a truck stop restaurant
the club debated where to go,
some wanted south to warmer lands,
the others north to find some snow.

We decided north and south were out;
most choices were too far to roam.
We
