I Wait With Bated Breath For C Cure T Clarence
I wait with bated breath for... C. Cure T. Clarence The following crafted approximately midway into the administration of forty fifth president, whose crass, gutsy, lewd, repulsive yawping finds him squarely poised to nab the nomination as Republican front runner come the 2024 election. The overstuffed ego freezer (yes him with the coiffed windblown hair has been making, sans daily) regular appearance in the news...

With Bated Breath
Detected overpowering odour ascending by degrees Rational thought dissolved in fear Animalistic unearthly roar transpiring Gigantic mockery of every living thing Oblique it’s huge amber eye surveyed Nostrils twitching rapidly to detect Stagnant atmosphere all pervading Tantamount aversion restrained Onerous task to undertake Nihilism mindfully conjured despair Extinction of human kind a possibility 9/3/19 sponsor Edward Ibeh Title With bated breath...

Worthy worship welcomes divine bated breath of well-done work Invigorating my earnest praise-offering and prayer-intercession Triumphing over turbulent trials along toilsome tests Hoisting me toward God’s heavenly hope. Braced-up with Christ’s strength during righteousness’ bouts of bated-breath Assured faith of mine adheres to Him against doubts’ afflictions Tenaciously standing upon His truth with thanksgiving Empowered for service-enablement Doing His will with delight*. Blessings...

With Bated Breath With bated breath I wait to see your glowing face In the evening skies when you arise Taking my breath away with your beauty. How I await to view your glowing silver orb. Beauty and enchantment of your illumination Are a lover's romantic delight tonight as Twilight deepens into indigo skies you Elate my senses as you mesmerize in Darkened skies...

When you left me in mild mid-summer twilight I heard you say you’d return on a silvery night Through the dust of full moon of spring when Hues would flush the first rose of my garden. Beyond the blue haze of bright night’s beguiled And ardent ambience I saw you disappear while The rush of thoughts swept my mind with tense Expectations...

Weathered memories I dream of you as always Thoughts that linger onwards Hover in the stillness of the night Behind sullen shadows Across silent clashing waves Throbs of a heart beating Echo relentless in my head Distanced from this realm Beached dreams of you and me Reminder of our time cut short Every moment thereafter A throbbing aching longing To reunite two souls in love Heaven awaits with bated...

With Bated Breath
Whispers curtailed into the cobalt sky Inspired by diminished reasons why Twisted into favorite memories Half bent over, weeping with willow trees Betrayal never mute when fear prevails Anticipation of my heart that wails Temptation shows no alleviation Expecting all that resents creation Decreasing heartbeat; devoid elation Barren fields mourn, for I am left breathless Regretting my past, leaving me restless Eroded lava brick engraved my...

Walking up the winding path inside the cemetery where my family is buried; the path leads me through the oldest parts, and I recall haunted stories of childhood. Breathless, I walk faster and whisper a prayer; another turn, then another, oh am I lost! Turning around in circles- I see through trees the sun; even the hushed angels sigh for me...
