To Those That Have Walked Dark Halls Of Deepest Grief

Truth of deep grief and its healing powers;
Are not in the anguish pains that invade,
With the blackest of black in midnight hours
Dancing dark corridors in Hell's parade.
It rests in the sweet blessings of gloom's end
That relief,...

      Oh the many souls who stagger

Deck the Halls
Christmas lights are blinkin',
Glowin' and a'twinklin',
Hang the Yuletide Holly...
It's hard to sleep tonight!

Christmas cards we're writin',
Oh, it's so excitin',
Hang up all the Stockings...
It's hard to sleep tonight!

Christmas bells are ringin',
Carolers are singin',
Wait for Christmas morning...
It's hard to sleep tonight!

Little eyes are peekin',
For the things they're...

Deck the Yuletide Halls

Winter’s bounty of floral beauty ever blooms through snowy nights
 Even when nature wears a mantle bold stitched of frosty weather
  By warming fires and in the apparel of amber scented candlelight. 

Wreaths of Holly and of ivy grace the halls...

Once
these corridors 
echoed with life
a citadel for restoration
of body and mind
a bastion of promise
for the tormented
to the outside world
it had many names
Forest Lawn Sanitarium
was its Nome de plume

I--- simply called it--- home

In its day
it was of grand design
cathedral ceilings
hung with crystal chandeliers
finest draperies form fitted
to...

Halls of Souls Left Empty
I can hear your voice
It still echo's deep in my mind.
I walk alone
As my soul searches through this endless time.
Now that I have finally found you,
I thought happiness would never be mine,
How could I have possibly known?
Our love would stand the test of time.
Now your...

The Halls of Middle School
The shuffling of feet scattered in the hallways,
Wooden and metal desk and yellow pencil shavings,
The bell sounds when each class ends

I hear laughter,
I see unfamiliar faces all around me
The smell of paper fills the hallways

Thinking,
Learning,
Focusing

Piles of paper work lie upon the teachers desk.

Have some empathy,
Use...

Premium Member The Reflecting Halls of Meiosis
He speaks an uncomplex language,
a simpler time and all the more better
for he to not contemplate the ways of the Sun -
revolving around in his mind,
burning synapsis, conjoining 
an onyx ringed Saturn unmasked 
(they say the devil, Medusa dwells there),
now view the Sun ray-banned, 
traversing...

The Halls of Hell
Deep in the darkest halls of hell
The air is thick and black as night
The ravens crow is only heard
To mark a death or a dying right

A bleeding hound devours prey
A flaming witch her heart ablaze 
A molten brand of steel and fire
Crosses burn while sinners...

Hospital Halls and Walls
I catch a fleeting glimpse of her room from the hall,
my back slams lightly against the wall,
slumping listlessly, my anger out of control.
As she lies in her hospital bed, tubes patrol
in and out of every conceivable opening,
with new vital bodily fluids dripping
monotonously, in time released...

Marble Halls
I dreamed I dwelt in marble halls,
With servants and helps and slaves and all.
Silver cutlery, mahogany furniture and cedar floors,
I dreamed that man and beast both great and small
Knelt before me, swearing allegiance while a kissin’
My fingers so. That I would wake to the sound...

“Inside the Great Halls of Us”



Inside 
The Great Halls of Us,
there resides a ghost 

IT hides in plain sight,
waiting quietly, alone, 
in our dark

there, IT holds ITs light,
to draw us further in,
we nervously laugh IT off 

ITs reflection lit,
seems glowingly familiar,
we are frightened of IT...

Fleeing These Halls
In this sweet little pig pen
Walls that once were friends
And bold shields 
For lounge room warriors
Now barricade 
Detain indefinitely, denying
Beyond them imaginings
For ravenous captives
With restless longing and fears
Choose now the door 
Indulgence to ruin, or
Patience to pride
An unforgiving master waits 
With bitter destinies to navigate...

Deck the Halls For Christmas Carols Contest
Deck the halls with photos of me
I know you miss me
I miss you too
But I am always there
Always watching you from above

We have memories of our life together
The time we had was exceptional
I was taken away too soon
We didn’t get the chance to say goodbye
This...

Premium Member Walls Halls and Balls
Trump says Biden old for President
Trump looks far older, quite evident
He’s not glued together guys
Bags of spuds under his eyes
Syrup in orange hair definite.

Walks through White House's numerous halls,
Going crazy within these walls,
A dreamer thinks all's solved,
A transition? Not resolved
No one cares, go play golf,...
