Sonnet 31 'How High the Bar That Makes a Poet Real'How high the bar that makes a poet Real!
(He walks in mists, and shadows of himself)
To be a poet, is to burn with steel
Set short time in the forge, the lesser self!
He brands his heart with fiery words, set down
And burns his mind with thinking,...

12-31-23: A Number's Existential Crisis'Twas the twilight of the year
a twinkling tiara.
December 31st, digits dancing dunes
in the Sahara.
One, two, three, one, two, three,
it's a prance.
A numerical Irish step dance

October 31HELLO ; my voice faintly echoes back Hello
Is anyone there? Can anyone hear me?
I stare into the thick ebony chilly mist
Seeing nothing but the dance of Satan's Demons
Grotesque, disfigured lost souls living in their created darkness
Hell's home for all of mankinds lost sinners
As ghastly faces...

Jesus Answered Them - John 10: 31-32Jesus faced many attacks on earth
so often the Jewish leaders did attack
they made Him their number-one target
seeking to draw Him in that He's crack
Here the Jews were really angry
as they chose to attack with rocks
this is the son of God they hated
but they wanted Jesus...

December 31, as Rain Turns into SnowA cat sits on a chair
and hovers over me
as I lie in bed.
It’s December 31st
as a soft rain falls.
As I get up
I ask myself
if this is
an ending or beginning.
I’ve been back in town
full-time for five years
but embrace memories
of highways travelled
throughout the Midwest
when I worked
for road...

Proverbs 31 WomanProverbs 31 Woman
by Sandi Hoot
Behold she has unique eyes,
A smile one of a kind
Though her hands are wrinkly and dated,
still beautifully divine
Each freckle on that face makes her more unique,
But her inner beauty is what we all should seek
Proverbs 31 woman works with eager hands,
So...

Soul Stance River - 31This morning we are engulfed by a flirtatious fog
that seduces the skin of our hopes,
it's warm smother touches softly then suddenly skirts away
parting for the penetration of our will
whirling blithely as we taste the course that carries us into the bay of it's foaming bliss,

Proverbs 31 WomanPROVERBS 31 Woman
Who knows the woman, virtous today,
Her lighted candle, burning through each night.
Considering her vinyard meant to stay
For seasons yet to come, when time is right
Whose strength is in her arms, and loyalty
To each within her fold, yea, maidens all,
rejoice for being part...

A Proverbs 31:10-31 Woman (Sonnet)I have tilled the soil Lord
brought forth manna for the world
dug trenches for young seeds
instead planted my little girl
she was just learning to sew
starting on her very first quilt
begged us for a proper education
my heart beats with guilt
how shall I understand
the message thou has sent
trying...
