Premium Member Where Did It Go
Did not our summer fly by fast?
Eventually, we knew she'd go,
Forgetting to remake her blooms;
Green grasses dried to ashen glow.

How happy was the month of May,
Inviting hopes for summer fun.
Just in a blink her days went by
Kidnapped by June's much closer sun.

Left to the magic...

The Back Burner
I heard you calling my name in an echoing whisper 
I saw a bird take wing in the whirling wind of disaster 
I put my weary head on your broad shoulders
The moment we touched, I was broken boulders
I thought I was latching on to someone...

Premium Member Solitude
Seeking silence and fantasy
Only then am I set free
Love to float and find dreams
In sweet rhapsody
To drift deeply
Undisturbed
Detached

Premium Member Paradise Lost
PARADISE LOST

P oisonous minds roamed in Valley of joy, 
A nd their mission was to kill and destroy.
R uthless bullets pierced the innocent hearts,
A ngry devils tried to tear the Valley apart.
D eath danced every street, none could flee,
I struggled to breathe, as fear consumed...

A-L-O-N-E
A-nticipating no one
Refusing to slow down
Still searching for a home

L-eft in the rain
Still moving on
Refusing to bow to the pain

O-nly I can help myself
I will ask no one
I continue with nobody else

N-ever going to stop  
I would rather live in pain
Than ask for help

E-ven...

Premium Member My Fragile Heart
Make not a farce nor lessen my lament,
your weeping stains will hide my mask of dreams 
for poison feeds your nocuous intent,
revealing naught of pain through silent screams.

Another victim broken lost and drained
gets left to cry with feelings stretched and strained.
I whispered coos to you...

Our Abilities Discovered
I beg on behalf of the human race re. our effects on mother nature.

Help is what she needs, her abilities slighted
Atrocities committed by man impeding her adventure.
Verily, all things are so bad, and by us must be right’ed.
Exceptions none, to right our wrongs we must...

Neither Ear Will Turn Deaf
N-either ear will turn deaf
O-ctober third sunny day; 
R-ighteousness is revealed, 
A-fter you plead and pray.
L-et neither ear turn deaf, 
E-ven if lies do deceive; 
E-agerly listen to the voice of truth that man must receive.

G-ive full attention to God
A-s He teaches His word;
