When I close my eyes
Your figure in the distance
Haunt me day by day.

Bedeviled
Hearing
Stranges voices
Causing an afflicted mind
Feeling a sensation like a
Needle that pricks all your body and soul
Submerging in a black abyss
Without a future hope
Of resurface
Again

Bedeviled
Bedeviled by those pleading eyes
deep as the secrets they chasm
captive as the questions one must surmise
and I, for your deliverance the ransom
"never leave me, my love, my friend"
spoken feebly as a prayer of little faith
In angst your heart once more bereaved
for true love remains impossible to erase
Traveling the road of never-knowns
your world

Bedeviled By Bees
Folks refer to grand times as “bees knees”
But I am often bedeviled by bees
I take one step out the door
Approached by a flying hoard
Stand motionless, so still, afraid to sneeze
But if they land upon an arm or leg
I split my shell like a hard-boiled

Bedeviled
Beguiled in the Garden of Eden.
Eve brought mortality to herself and then, to man.
Deceived by Satan’s clever enticements.
Earth became a testing ground; separation from God began.
Vanquished by sin, then expelled from the beautiful Garden.
Idyllic life replaced by: toil, thistles and struggles; enduring faith tested.
Living with hope for salvation, bedeviled by sin, sacrifice began.

Oh, To Be Again - Bedeviled
The night is frosted glass.
Daylight’s clouds - restless like my love -
and scattered wildly heretofore -
somehow made a pact
to nimbly rearrange themselves.
Congealing in this chilling autumn eve -
translucent -
the clouds have blended in with dusk,
obliterating stars. . . and even shadows.
Luna, sad like me,
cannot transmit her moonlight
to cheer me.
Oh, to be again - bedeviled!

Bedeviled
So innocent was the little kitty,
Who came to my door that I took pity
On this helpless little thrown away.
I vowed he would see a better day.
Boxes of litter and bags of feed,
A covered box for this cat in need.
Then it’s off to the vet to be rid of fleas,
Ear mites and other such pests as
