Premium Member Like a Horse With a Carriage
Love goes with marriage
Like a horse with a carriage. . . 
but what of the horse?
The horse may lead the carriage,
but often stumbles or dies.

What of the carriage?
It often falls apart or
gets stuck in a rut.
But how beautiful the horse
and the carriage that endure!

Premium Member The Gun Carriage
Having engaged in unlawful
Sexual intercourse
The hunter inflicted suffering
Upon my dissent.
Trained for rapid eye movement
He showcased with a violent temper
And in conversation
How it was for the purpose
Of my moral improvement
That in his chasuble
He designed to subdue me.
What an obscenity
To doubt the machinery
By which my chastity
Supports my...

Premium Member Black Carriage
Death's dark angel
Black carriage drives
Collecting lives
Final rewards

The carriage has
Matching horses
Pulling courses
All of them black

Death follows you
All of your life
Toil and strife
Can't escape Him

When it's their time
They all object
There's no respect
Everyone dies

Thanatos rides
The Banshees cry
Valkyries fly
None of them care

Horse Drawn Carriage
A horse drawn carriage is the way to go,
It’s all about relaxing and taking it slow;

The gentle rocking motion you feel,
To me it holds only the greatest appeal;

The scent of horse and leather in the air,
A gentle breeze, the wind in your hair;

The clipity-clop of...

Culbertson Mansion: the Carriage House
When all the paying guests had gone,
I broke in there one Halloween.
I thought at first it was all fun,
Then realised just what I’d seen.

The noises, smells and awful sights
Had made my blood run cold with fear:
The mangled, tortured bodies dead,
But even worse was Webb’s cold...

Premium Member A Gilded Carriage
The adulterer and adulteress rode 
In a gilded carriage, while horses strode
Many looked on with pride
Others hated the ride  
Most of the world yawned in blasé mode  


I had some thoughts when they said he was the leader of the Church Of England....

From Cane To Carriage
two McWhirtles

My cane has gone missing,
Hoveround showed up
of whom I sing praise for
supporting my girth.

I rise to stand strong on
two legs that are weakened,
and feel a bit useless, 
retired sense of worth.

~~~

Not poppin' a wheelie,
not riding a coffin,
on legs somewhat worn out
my mind feels no...

Ol' Sea Snake's Carriage Ride
Ol' Sea Snake's Carriage Ride

Cobblestones wobble and rock the carriage, 
as I circle these streets with Blue Bits and 
Derby Boy on this vibrant morning.
 
With the sun on my back and  a salty gale brushing 
by, my spirits soar as I imagine what...

Premium Member Carriage Driver
From this stark perch,
a great divide
from those who ride
with pinky raised.

Inured by wealth;
their lives unfazed, 
quick glances glazed.
They see me not.

Premium Member The Carriage
The carriage. The carriage keeps us safe and warm. As long as theirs coal and fire the steam engine won’t stop.

Look, we can make an escape. The woods over there offer freedom, it’s a chance we must take!
The carriage keeps us safe and warm. No...

Song For a Carriage
Carriage of soul
Wanders alone
In thought. The bone
From rails creaking.

Nightingale dips
To warble, sing.
Hymns on upswing
Drive soul afire.

Ivory Carriage
Thousands of tiny diamonds glisten against black velvet as the sound of your voice enters
into my ear and settles in my soul.
 Your lips are like silk and your embrace as comforting as rays of sun on a child's face.
 I know that love is...

Flowers In a Carriage
The horses stoop
when autumn blows,
snuffing echoes
of cheerful plains.

Wheels load frail boughs
down  time’s remains
where carriage claims
all flowers, gone.

Perfect posture 
Your back is straight 
Elegant gait 
Beauty will shine 

Don’t ever slouch 
Align your spine 
God’s own design 
Classy chassis
