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...

Dearest Sunlight, I Wait With Bated Breath

Dearest sunlight has thy glow ran away
Into a hideous canyon to hide
Please to dawn's glorious hour this I pray
Return, forgive me my arrogant pride
I watch night sky, its vast, glittering glows
Yet this lonely soul inward deeply cries
Beauty abounds as...

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...

Create in me O Lord
Breath of life
Blow your wind a gust in me, O Lord
While I stand here on the realm of enlightenment,
Investing in the twilight lite placement in times;
Together my body and spirit separates,
Host has hurried and left its place, now lifted...

I Wait With Bated Breath...
(slack jaw froze mine countenance
when eyes blinded with figurative
daggers asper mistakes in original draft,
hence...this flood proof, fire resistant,
and fever reducing error free version.)

(yes...yes...yes, this rhyme
resembles a recent one of mine
     from a previous time,
yet appropriating wands zone...

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...

Bated Breath
I long to whisper your name,
Under bated breath,
In the heat of the moment,
Under sensual duress.

To scream out in silence,
As you enter within,
My mound of fire,
Cavern of sin.

To holler out loud,
With my beating heart,
While our bodies collide,
Before pulling apart.

To moan in the pitch,
Of the darkest night,
As...

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...

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...

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...

While I stand here on the realm of enlightenment,
Investing in the twilight lite placement in times;
Together my body and spirit separates,
Host has hurried and left its place, now lifted and faceless…

Breath has flown, gone on…
Arise, arise my soul dough flies flows towards heaven…

With Bated Breath
wistful recollections awaken
intriguing emotions to follow
towards the desolate path
heartless roads once paved

barren fields beneath the stone
amidst the shadows of rock
thirst for more than tears
eventide's sighs often bring
dare she trust to love again?

beneath the lambent light
rising moon now full
emits a glow upon the path
attempting to allure...

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
