How Would It Be

my wonders wonder how would it be
if God had made me an insect a flea
how short of life would life be
and all of God's creatures
i'd fear and flee
so small and fragile
not easy to see
crushed by everything but me

my wonders wonder how would it be
if God made me into a bee
i'd rally with my brother bee's
gather pollen from plants and trees
build a fortress for a queen
work like the devil to keep it clean
if any should bother our domain
where it is
i'll give them my stinger
and no longer live
such is the life for us and he
whom god decides
to make a bee

my wonders wonder how would it be 
if God decided an eagle i'd be
noble, honored, swift and sleek
flying in the air for food i seek
secretly fishing with my eye
rarely is seen my deadly dive
I AM the symble for liberty and pride
i'll mate only once and then i'll die

my wonders wonder how would it be
if God had made me into a tree
standing tall above it all
save the mountians standing tall
in it's season making leaves
protecting both birds ans bee's
reaching high into the sky
growing wider than all living creatures
bearing fruit to feed the nations
eating the sun's rays before the hit they ground
my shade a cool shelter for everything around

my wonders wonder how it would be
if God decided a peacock i'll be
i'd strut and wear my tail so proud
my feathers match with any croud
my eye's and beak they match so well
the prettiest of birds
it is known so well
my feathers are emaculate
and my shape is so swell
i take great pleasure
in showing off my tail

my wonders wonder why it came to be
God made me a human being
so different and diverse are each of us
some of us praise , some of us curse
yet we struggle to believe in God above
one they think is evil 
and the other made of love
to us he gave intelect
with a capasicity to feel
complicated emotions that shatter and kill
but with this comes motivation
to create and build
an internal competition
to be better and better still

some men beg some men borrow 
and some men commit fraud
and most of them presumably
forgot about their god

but in this world of wonder
where wonders never cease
there is a visible God
watching man and beast
Form: Narrative

Bravada

bare up to listen if you dare
to words of poets spoken so rare

within these words chosen with care
timeless messages encoded there

our hearts to the depths of love untold
with in words secrets attempt to unfold

fragility of hearts made of glass
often broken by unnoticed pass

our pride in country, family and God
rarely is seen the road we trod

giving life , health and limbs for strangers
all the time knowing the dangers

words that rang out within our hearts
words from poets and prayers impart

what once was living; resurected by art
the plain, the shy, the cowardly depart

leaving the brave, the hero's, the ledgends of heart
to fight, to wittness the cruelty of Satans art

and of life there are many themes
each and every one pretaining to thee

for there is nothing new under the sun
for every battle there is a victory won

to be a hero or a martyr
some they know not

but for the principle 
the reason they fought

it mattered not the reward they got
but what was right, was right and life mattered not

weather battlefield or police shootout
they fought

over a little piece of land
their parents bought

poets know justice is from the heart
and pens telling the story is our part

when justice is justice
and laws are unjust

the feelings poets commandeer
and rush

Premium Member In Shadow of Raven

Constance-Rambling Poet For Contest: Among The dead
By John Moses Freeman

~It is said of Raven the dead are fed…
     she walks in death’s broad ways among the tombs…
        in the valley of  the shadow of death…
          she speaks, they comprehend her bequeath!

~But death’s Lord be also Lord of life…
        his paradox thus be life and death…
         death having become mercy, where is thy sting…
           what of illusions but  life vesting death's fling!

~Souls treading in death’s dark and shadowed valley…
     having become wise as the serpent’s part…
       making straight and narrow the crooked place…
         lift up serpent's cure on a pole for a space!

~Adamant be the particles of light’s truth…
     adapted to dark illusions of scheme…
       until their serpent's darkness be filled…
        judgment fulfilled beseeches grave's cruel seal!

~Raven darkness be sister of the graves…
     her serpent divided her from light…
       in darkness she proves the plight…
         for darkness comprehends not truth’s light!

~Adamant love betwixt is a fulcrum’s glue…
     transpires chaos to order as one truth…
       thus the shadowed sister of darkness plight…
          is approved of elect lady’s light!

~ Thus in the very essence of Raven...
      truth of her life destiny is engraved in...Selah!

My Prayer On Xmas Day

My Prayer on Xmas Day 


You came as a beam of Light, for the suffering humanity,
To remove, cruelties of Life  and to spread Love and forgiveness,
And became,  a symbol   of a new dawn,
Ending the dread of the darkness by your sublime Love, Light  & forgiveness,


Simplicity,  and the teachings of forgiveness  and Love for all,
Was the name of your great causes, and your divine   appearance, O’ Jesus,
Your heart melts to heal,  every suffering human,  
And the light of your love, filled a new life to awaken the souls of those, 
Who were in miseries and pains  and  were in great sufferings, 


Humanity would always remain indebted,  for showing everyone,
A path of Love, forgiveness and living a life of truthful non-voilence,
My humble   prayer to You,   on the great day of Xmas would be,           
To show a path of Love in the hearts of those, who are living in hatred,
To throw a light of kindness and Love, on those, who are in great distress,


Instead of revenge and violence, which is slowly engulfing the entire world,
Fill the heart of every human being, irrespective  of,
Places, beliefs and religions,  with the Light of Your divine Love  & benevolence,
And bless them, so that they may know the joy of living with Peace and Love,
And may adopt a better way of life, of living with love and kindness for all others.

GREETINGS  FOR ALL

With Greetings for all my friends anywhere in the world, for a Merry Christmas and a very
Happy and Prosperous New Year 2011.

Sentenced To Live,Licenced To Give

Sentenced To Live,Licenced To Give



Chariot of horse,clarion with hoarse,bastion of choice.

I project aboard,my walk in life about.

On the abrasive of craft,by the shaft of the tool of want,

I decipher the yields of the fields.

Aesthetics and complexities;my work will wodge a lodge

to harness.This legacy,these messages variegate my

desires to attune in aspire.

Sentenced to live,then I reason death to poison.

 

The umbrella to shade the form,the aubriella conform affix.

Bounties of gain liken to effigies of main.

The course of drive my cause,the fuss of cline my force,

The joys of life my plot.

When I look upon the mountain of roam,to decibel my

fountain of goal-As a forethought:I cladded my mind in rock,

Later with my furnace of of prise,it melted into a rise of emission.

To give my flakes in resource,to lift my stakes in return,

To even on the pallet of balance my reward.

Licenced to give,coffers of valour belay the corners of colours

and honours.

The Festival of Light ‘deewali'

The Festival of Light  ‘Deewali’



We are celebrating Deewali,
A festival when we light- up many many lights.



Light is more important than life
As life without Light is no Life,
Lightening Deeps or a candle is only symbolic
Enlightening the mind and  heart is the real gesture, we celebrate Deewali.

O light Sublime, enlighten my mind,
Under the feet of God, so that I can remain in peace and calm,
Enlighten my soul, so that I can feel the music of God,
Enlighten every human being poor or rich, healthy or sick,
Of any religion, in world’s any part,
As they, all are the children of God.

O graceful Goddess of Light,  please fills your light in every human being,
And specially in the life of those, who are in absolute dark, or
In the life of those who are in distress and do not find a light 
To console their weeping heart.

Spread your light,  like the wings of sky,
Touch every particle,  like the Sun touches the earth,
Touch every heart, which is in agonies and are crying,
Put your hands on us like the hands of God,
Wipe tears from every weeping eye, and 
Spread your smiles on every face, O Goddess of Light.

Pro(Se) Life

.         The right to life concept, often presented as an alternative to pro-choice
abortions, is inherently flawed and inconsistent. Since when does it make sense to value a
person's birth but not the life she/he would lead after it? The idea of a 'right to life'
implies that the life should be as free of pain and suffering as the parent is capable of
providing for the child. If a person has the right to life, he also has the right to the
means to live it. Yet far too many people are routinely born into either slavery or misery
stricken dumps lacking basic necessities since their parents were never given the right to
secure a safer position in the world for themselves or their child.
          The truth is it's not the right to the baby's life that's valued but the
inherent murder it implies in whomever prevented it from living. By the time human beings
absolutely understand that murder is wrong, including the right and/or need for the state
to murder anyone for any reason whatsoever, the technology of birth control would have
evolved with enough sophistication so that a woman could fully choose where and when she
would raise a child with absolute certainty, thus making the need to murder the child
completely unnecessary and so it will forever be gone from everyone's mind.





*This is my opinion and nothing more.

Limbo Effect of the Lost Mind

Constipation of the Mind 
no words coming out
blah blah blah 
blank page
whiten sepulcher
ink run dry 
damming up the stream 
the Beavers run and hide 
Zombie effect is me 
craving for brains, the life 
source to carry myself 
staple the bird down 
cage the beast 
silence the cries and needs 
emptiness and voided 
of any logic
                 reason, 
Nothing to say 
Nothing to offer 
feeling dead yet alive 
Limbo effect is me
floating, not falling 
not really going anywhere 
stay still 
Meditate on life 
Breath in 
sluuuuurp
Breath out 
wooooosh
actions require Mindfulness
Mindfulness requires process 
the Willpower of the soul 
to take charge and flap 
its celestial wings to the 
Open-embracing horizon 
closer and closer I fly 
wings melt and I do 
finally fall, and sensations 
return, I for that split 
second completely embraced 
by the warming light, totally 
consumed, Moth in the flame, then
with the feeling of rushing 
water and air, I return

Habeas Corpuses

Haunted by fears of abandonment he lived a life of counter measures
always aloof, his deceptions were a well rehearsed performance;
ultimately judged as inconsiderate and unforgivable;
And labeled as an insignificant happenstance that must be made to pay.
   He measured his meters ever so carefully thinking he knew time so well;
   Waiting for things to be right but never imagining it would never come back;
   But in the end it wasn't time it was life and like a parentless child life;
   Delivered to him but a centrifuge of what was once a living dream.
the man only wanted to be loved for who he was and not what he pretended to be;
But could anyone possibly know, being the shape shifter he supposed he was.
But he had a heart and he tried to be kind and he wasn’t superman so how did he;
End up labeled a breaker of promises considerate only of that which he desired.
   So the man accepts the blame solely as his own for;
   He should have known better but he finds these conclusions hard to bare; 
   And he considers it to perhaps have been mistaken identity of what;
   He once believed an undying love was nothing more than a hopeless delusion

Our Potential

Trying to find inspiration
In the simplest of things
To ascertain some meaning 
To my existence
Am I destined for a life of mediocrity?
Or a life of diplomacy?
Only time will tell
One's life is unscripted & undetermined
Until we decide to take initiative
To hold our breath & dive right in
We'll never know our true potential
Or where our value lies.

A Blue Forever

A fresh stroke of paint on her canvas gave scent to the room
She painted, talent sat byt her side and so did her heart
With every stroke a new face took life, radiant in color and detailed shade
The eyes were sharp, for it seemed as if a star had bursted infront of them
The image frozen on his eyes
A smile grew from pink and red, a little orange
Her eyes fixed on her creation, she marveled with idea and adventure
Poetic verses sang the thin air
For she inspired by a poet
Words of love made way to her heart
Her soul did dance, and before she could realize she had fallen
He was her every thought, her every question
She admired his spoken art
Always she was the protagonist of his literature
A tear fell from her eye, rolling down her cheek it landed on her brush
Another stroke, and another it was the face of her beloved that she created
For he will always be her poet, and she his artist
Let no one testify against their love, for love is love
Will tomorrow be dry? Oh heavens forgive my cry
For I cannot see my life being life without her
I love you pumpkin with my all
And she hanged the finished portrait of darkpoet in her hearts wall
Where is sits today and for eternity
Art and rhyme, let judge only be time

Living With the Primate

The little monkey in its cage;
  That looked just like a baby.
Now he’s riding on your back
  And you think he drives you crazy.

 The monkey tells you listen;
     It’s best you feed me now.
You tell him that you got no cash;
     But you’ll work it out somehow.

You offer him some tidbits;
  That should hold him for awhile.
He tells you that it just won’t do;
  As he digs with claws just filed

Give me some narcotics; he says;
  You have to make me well.
I’m the monkey on your back;
  I can make your life a hell.

So of course you feed the monkey;
   It’s just something else to serve.
But the monkey makes your life so sad
  It’s more than you deserve.

The monkey use to be so cute;
   Now it’s ugly and insane.
And people call you junkie;
   As if it was your name.

You should overcome your habits;
    Or lose all your control.
And your life will be a darkness;
   That you’ll never really know

Premium Member Your Only Friend

YOUR ONLY FRIEND       
Out of the night she's called for you
and raised you from a restless sleep
into the life you're going through,
into the life you can not keep.

She's known by all, her name is Death,
you see her, then you realize,
she is your very final breath
and you have seen it in her eyes.

You look again, to clear your head
but truth is truth, and now you know,
your book is finished, it is read,
and now it's time to go.

So long you wondered who she was
if she would ever be a friend,
but now you see the love she does,
and it is there beyond your end.

She whispers all the things you've done
and sings them in her song
each rising star, each setting sun,
it all played out, but played out wrong.

And there is nothing here for you,
so welcome her, she is your end,
and go to where you must go to
to know sweet Death, your only friend.
