A Sonnet For Gloria

My mother’s eyes of ebony, sparkling stars
Carefully, she paints her lips' gypsy red
A cascade of flowing ringlets, her hair shines from afar
Muscatels quaint flowers, she wore on her head

Her costume; polka-dot, red and white
To have spent more time with dance, her regrets
Her...

She heaves in doubt
The emptiness in her gaze 
Lets her hair down
Not full enough 
She sighs
Tresses tossed aside
Much like inner beauty 
The agony of imperfection
A grand deception

What shapes her?
God or society
Testosterone was
Afterall, a divine idea
Leaving Gloria behind
Searching for a magic mirror
Longing for utopia
In a barren...

I sensed it in the rock
compressed a thousand feet below.
I saw it in the cardboard box
where some humanity must breathe
the stench of garbage that was once inside.
I heard it flung across the aisle in antiphon
to angel choirs who tend to chant
rom pannacles I cannot touch.

It...

Sit Transit Gloria Mundi
Rick Folker

Our current consumptive culture
Salivates over
"Tech" and "Cell" and "Screen"
That transmits the lurid, pornographic
Apocalyptic scenes.

We long for the end
Of the endless 24/7 hollow info
Hoping, even praying that 
The Moral Arc would start to bend.

The dreadful, the destitute in their death throes
Are caught...

Thought I'd like to meet a gorilla up close
Then I met Gloria, damn close my diagnose
With a hairy face
Bad odor, a trace
Arms pretty long and climbed trees like a pro...

Feathers sparkled lustrous leaves
crowded in a blisterful branch
glazed pink lusted sprinkling waves
smothered a idyllic luxury
Blizzard armies of service
strategically polished in sparkling
sparkle polish 
for a whispered gloria 
held sacredly 
Born in lacy recklessness 
with scarlet lolita cuffs
rubbed with glory in gold cloth
received veil covered rewards to...

A well-known stud in Peoria
Brought lots of women euphoria
But married rather well,
After casting his spell
A gal he fondly called Gloria.

TRANSIT GLORIA
turning surreal
blooming
  imaginative
 yet vintage
& compelling in loftiness

an influx
 of euphoria
triumphal
  yet unbowed

such contemporary
 polemics
in
 joyful shrieks
an embellishment
to  reward & reinvigorates
yet
a contentious dream
  obscure & curious
in an
endless
 procession

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath...

“Soli Deo Gloria*” --- we testify
God Almighty our praises magnify
Midst His mercy and truth that sanctify
Since He by His pardon does purify.  

“Glory to God** alone” is our faith’s goal
In ministering with servanthood role
Fulfilling the best along kindness’ pole
Helping build lives, or making someone...

Gloria Gupta's garbage bin
Has got all sort of trash within:

A starched piece of mouldy bread,
A broken doll without a head.
Three empty cans of soya beans,
Uncle Jimmy's old torn jeans.
Papers, documents that don't work,
Spoons and old dishes and forks.
Used out pens, money clips,
Broken lunch packs and...

Gloria in Eggshellsis

By Mark Stucky
Will my shell crack open
from external stresses?
Will my soul ooze out to sizzle over fire.

Will my soul simply rot inside my shell,
forgotten and leaving inside
a core of putrid mess?

Will my soul hatch through my shell,
transforming and breaking through
into a joyfully chirping...

Gloria

I have always been a lover of art,
So much that I did no harm to any human,
Feared all creation as sacred creatures,
That wait only to shout to God, Gloria!
Gloria to Shembe! Gloria to Shembe! 

Through the windows of my soul,
I think what I see is...

Maybe twice is not good enough
For even eagles have to learn to soar
And if this piece is not good enough
Grapes are good although their taste is sour

Meeting you was such an amazing grace
It was, it is and forever would be
So gracious it was to first...
