Step Ever So Light – On Halloween Night

Step Ever so light
Into this treacherous night
Creatures that abandon the day
Come out to play

Hear those Chill winds howl
To the hoot of an owl
The pale moon flickers
On black cats and bats,
While shadows dance softly
On old crooked hats.
There is corruption at play
In this treacherous night
Step Ever so light, Ever so light

Into the Halloween night
That steals your soul,
With shadows creeping
darkness takes control.
To play ball they crawl
In the moon’s eerie thrall.
The Universal teachings
They fail to recall

Step Ever so light ~ Ever so light ~ Ever so light.
Oh ~ Oh ~ Oh ~ Oh

Step Ever so light
It’ll steal your soul,
With shadows creeping
darkness takes control.
To play ball they crawl
In the moon’s eerie thrall,
The Universal teachings
They fail to recall
Step Ever so light ~ Ever so light ~ Ever so light.
Oh ~ Oh ~ Oh ~ Oh

Premium Member How Dare We Ever So Boldly Speak Out

How Dare We Ever So Boldly Speak Out

Let me write in obscure and chaotic words
stirring waters tepidly unknown
Yet my spirit refuses to admire such birds
or the massive flattery they are now shown
Why yes, some of us write from poetic hearts
with passion and not merely for fleeting praise
We that sail the seas, using understood charts
are now thought to be in an insane craze!

O' that we dareth to sparsely use archaic words
in poems as way of joining with the past
O' what folly, not wanting to be in a modern herd
or be afraid of those that so love to lambast
Cry thee, to thy Gods of confusing adulation
while we carry on in our simple ways
Content with depth, not writing for modern adoration
full of faith that truth and heart in poetry pays!

Robert J. Lindley, 4-27-2017

Note- Old poet, simple slam and quite tired of elitist criticisms
of poet novices, true hearts writing in understood words and
some that seek to exalt themselves by tearing others down..
Yes, this is a slam, but one done in a simple,reserved and more poetic style.

Step ever so light
Into this treacherous night
Creatures that abandon the day
come out to play

Hear those June winds howl
To the hoot of an owl
the candle flame flickers
' forewarned is forearmed'
There is corruption at play
In this treacherous night

Step ever so light,
ever so light
The long arm of
equivocation favours
Wrong over Right

As ordered lives fray
The spinning wheel turns 
Casting shadows upon
The power of the judge
Will he unravel?
While a Puppeteer
holds the mighty gavel
The blind eye is turned
As the forged scales tip
towards the stolen people
Self-imposing chosen sheeple
To play ball they crawl
The Universal teachings
they fail to recall

In this treacherous night
that steals your Soul
Step ever so light
ever so light

Premium Member Ever So Sweet

My sweet baby girl is
half-awake, half-asleep.
And her toffee yawns are
stretchy as caramel.

Her cotton candy cheeks
are like pink marshmallows.
And dark chocolate curls;
adorn my baby's head.

She sports blueberry eyes
and soft licorice lips.
And her creamy face boasts 
a million-dollar smile.

A confectionery
treat, she is delicious.
And gives sugared kisses;
that taste; ever so sweet.

Premium Member Truth, Shines Ever So Brightly

Truth, Shines Ever So Brightly

I was once wrapped it teeth and thick fur
ferocious and ghastly beast was me.
I was a bad dog, a wicked little cur
whipping and snapping at every small flea.

One day, the sun burnt my covering hide
and exposed my hideous skin to see.
Such truth, this heart could not abide
stung me ever so sharply like a bee.

Now comes time to hold less as much more
walk a different path free and alone.
Yes, light filtered through that sad door
where my greatest folly was then shown.

I was once wrapped in thick, shiny scales
Now a deep truth destroys those tall tales.

Ever So Gently

Like snowflakes on my eyelashes

Like the gentle wind that blows

Like the rustle of leaves on trees

and birds chirping  in  the eaves

You come each day and touch my soul

With fingers warm and light 

And kiss my cheek a breath of jasmine

that make my senses reel

Illusive as a  sunbeam 

 I know when you’re near 

 By the scent of love’s sweet fragrance 
 
 and the upcurl of my hair

When my heart's bursting with joy

and your light comes shining through

I know ti's you dear God,

                          I know ti's you.


Inspired by Maya Angelou.


Burning Ever So Bright

D-ay six in June early morn, 
A-nother dawn is shining; 
B-ad weather turns good, 
I-nclement clime is
E-nding.

R-ise of the sun has begun, 
A-fter the long lonely night; 
L-ight from the wide blue sky is burning ever so bright.

Premium Member God Is Your Favor and He Loves You Ever So Much More Than You Know

GOD IS YOUR FAVOR AND HE LOVES YOU EVER SO MUCH MORE THAN YOU KNOW

And on this day do yourself a favor
God is your favor
He's is your most true and intimate lover
There is no other, no, no other who loves you ever so much more
God is your favor
He's the head of all families
There is no other, no, no other who loves you ever so much more
He loves you just as you are, He so loves you as you is
He's the head of all families
He's is your most true and intimate lover
He loves you just as you are, He so loves you as you is
And on this day do yourself a favor

A Cactus Ever So Lonely

I see, this is what it means,
To have one intention, and one only.
Why is it I have to be that one cactus,
That feels ever so lonely.
The hard rocks to the pavement so hot, 
Do I care?
No I most certainly do not.
For I have these friends, seemingly different.
But who cares?
For their petals drip such vibrant colors, 
And their love they leant. 
I sit here, pointy and uneasy to touch, 
But the soft heart of those flowers die down such a thought.
Now, I don't have to feel like an only,
Neither do I have to be that cactus, that is ever so lonely.

If I'M Ever So Lucky

I would love nothing more than to be hers
with a smile that fractures my sanity
i question the need of all medication
when after all she is my cure
and doctors are baffeled by incontrovertible indubitable proof
that my heart beats in morse code
to spell ouut, her name
Thump thump.. thump thump.. thump.... flatline
Now my abused heart can take a break
lashed with whips, it shrivled in fear
too scared to seek the love it dreamed to meet
now without a beat i live
Because, shes has given me a new reason to live
and taken by the wind, i swept her off her feet
and told her that I will walk upon the this broken glass,
for us
take your time, for love is never planned
So I'll be here holding you if and
when you make the decision to stand
i will let you go
but if i am ever so lucky to have you whole
i promise to never to let you go
And make you All-Mines

As a Limo--Driving By--Ever So Slowy

As Tis tonight..
I was on my outing
tis be.. 
There came..
A Limo... 
Driving by
Ever so slow..
As I said..
Unto my Body guard
Oh... Look 
Look... tis Beautiful..
Somebody wed...

My Body guard
then said...
Yes... but tis be
I am sure... 
Neither be.. tis for Love...

I said.. How.. How could you say
such things...
There is... True Love.. 
between two..
I am sure.. 
For God does Bless many..

As I watched....
tis be...
The Black Limo stopped
as I waited to see...
Then tis be...
The Shofar got out
Then he went around
Opened the door...
And then... out came...
A Man in a Black Tux...
Then the Man in the Black Tux
Tis be... was the Groom

Then went around the other side
And opened the door
Then slipping out
Twas a long white.. Satin... 
Pearly looking material
As I seen a woman reaching 
Out her hand... 
At the same time.. did the man
Reaching for her hand...

Then helping her to stand
As the woman's elegant foot
Beholding silver high heals
As she stepped out...
As she stood up...
With her long white gown...
Pearly... Satin and Lacy too... 
Beautifully elegantly made 
As both their eyes... gazed
At each other...

As they looked upon each other... 
He brought her closer unto him
Then he guided her into Banquette Hall
Tis where there be.. a ballroom
For their reception.. to be held..

Then I turned to my bodyguard
and I said.. tis see...
Those two..
Behold such Love of Truth..
they both behold each other  

God's Blessing of True Love
Between Two hearts...
Is Golden... Forever tis be..
Even in Eternity...

If Love Be Ever So Blind

If Love be ever so blind
        The attraction to such fair a grace
Would scarcely be so strong defined
        But fade sharply off with ne'er a trace
If Love be ever so blind.

If Love be ever so blind
        Warm breath would not escape
A soul when adoring eyes do find
        The stellar charm hair does drape
If Love be ever so blind

If Love be ever so blind
        Rainbows would be a vivid gray
Lost amidst the clouds, undefined;
        And night no longer contrasts the day
If Love be ever so blind

If Love be ever so blind
        When such a vision lights the darkest sky
The sun, moon and stars entwined!
        Why can I see so clearly, why?
If Love be 
            ever so 
                        blind

Be It Ever So Humble

Visit someone’s sprawling house
And envy all that space
Or travel to some posh hotel
With comfort you embrace;

But still, when you return and step
Into your own abode,
It’s nice to settle back into
That old familiar mode

Where everything you touch is yours.
It’s cozy, warm and snug.
Your pillow and your blanket
Cuddle like a long-lost hug.

Whoever wrote that saying
Got the humble part just right,
For home, despite its size or scope,
Fills every appetite.
