Fables
What are our millennium fables?
Women keep giving each other labels,
No harmony for our ecology,
An alliance should be our synergy,
No accountability for the economy,
No wise leaders to steer us to unity,
Century's getting older, folks!
Any teamwork to cast off these yokes?
Symbiosis should aim at harmony,
Let's pray for...

      to pass down the teachings of the Ojibwe culture;
through fables, legends, myths, songs and dance,

Fables of Reflections
And we became the layer of voices
With engineered precision ripples 
And auto-tuned echoes

And though many who bow blindly 
In the sanctuaries of their own belief system 
Would sometimes rationally scrutinize 
And disqualify the sacraments of others

Truth would always appear obvious 
On fables rather than reflections...

I Midas

King Midas' greed for riches was such
That everything turned to gold in his clutch,
As did his daughter one day
When she got in the way.
Much better for her had they not kept in touch.

II Arthur

The Camelot tale is a wonderful fable,
And King Arthur and knights...

Fables
Degenerates & subjugates

Nothing really deteriorates

Living life in magenta & chartreuse

Trying to cover over the bruises

Inflicted by white lies

Negating the ending

For the sake of feeding

The all encompassing

Heartfelt alibis

Recounting storybook fables

Resounding through the Taj Mahal

Told underneath the kitchen table

Heard through the majestic macaw

Throwing stones at the glass...

Put loving labels,
On all my tables,
Fables are fine for fun,
But no life is won.

Love, is by breath bequeath,....................................(Genesis 2:7)

By which they manifest.

Into life may the guest bequeath,
This not unusual request,.....................................................................(Romans 12:1-3)

Love’s action as life. ..............................................................................(1 John 4:7-8)

Premium Member This Is No Fable
I was relaxing in my sunroom, one very peaceful afternoon,
Enjoying the fables of Aesop, and all the flowers abloom.

The view from the many windows, was gold sunshiny delight,
With blossoms and rich greenery, and many birds in flight.

Every now and then I chuckled, at comical characters...

I own a rooster
live on a farm
the animals vote
I am simply caretaker

Under my farm
there is a huge bunker
a thousand men in uniform
systems, equipment and missiles

I am simply caretaker...

Premium Member Skywriting
On a cool spring morning, by a clear mountain stream, an enchantress sat skywriting.

Her arms danced at awkward, inhuman angles and as they did, her bracelets jangled a melody which the birds took up in chorus.

The soundtrack was magic. Insects buzzed in beat, animals froze...

Turning the Tables
It’s harder to bleed when blood is gone
What’s greed with the line money’s on/
Will it run up on someone’s lawn/
Or try and take from your spawn/
Then act like nothing was wrong/
The track they’re taking is long/
When that feeling is an old song/
As you’re turning the...
