Best Happenchance Poems

" Ship of Doom "

Ship of doom so sailed to sea ~
Dark her course... 'twas meant to be ~

Into seas this great ship sped ~
Her past... her history... of naught but dread ~
O'er those waves her bows did'st cleave ~
Her memories... but silken webs to...

Kismet yanks the rug I'm standing, 
Shocked it barely sways my stance. 
Should have been a back-side landing, 
Unexpected happenchance. 

Anger follows loud reporting. 
As for me, my silence holds. 
I'm the villan, unsupporting, 
Tiresome lines, the same old role. 

New perspective thrills my senses,...

Forty-Eight that parallel...
above which no man need go.
For there doth dwell the demon...
with his sultry bride from hell.

Water's frozen, sky's a'fire...
sea o'forsaken desire.
Doth sure now lure a'many sailor-lad...
'twixt depths of irk and ire.

So 'twas set black sail aloft...
from deck o'ship so fleet.
As day broke solemn...

A murmuring heart, on its own.
From the start, feeling alone.
A pounding heart, not far away,
Even torn apart; love that does not sway.

That moment, happenchance, when mortals collide,
When life, to enhance, releases the deep inside.
When the fruit of the vine, meant to entice and enthrall,
Is drank...

When it Comes to Aging

By happenchance of birth---
Circumstances of life withstanding---
We enter into life, with genes marking
Our attributes of features obtaining

See my Mother and her ancestors
See my Father and his ancestors

Characteristics we have of all
Seen while still in our baby cribs
Topographies of structured ageing
Mapped by...

" Bright of Gold "

Their way was fraught with circumstance,
Their path to bright of gold.
Their day was bound in happenchance,
Or so their story is told.

Trek they did to mountain peak,
Among them seldom found a care.
Fortune that so they did seek,
That of which to man was...

Twas it happenchance or divine intervention
 that brought us to this place, this time
 this plane of purest desire we share….

 
Just north of the moon, past the fourth star 
crossing over Orion’s belt we soared…
 entwined, likeminded, and very much inclined
 in our sincerest...

For a toss goes zen,
when we face madmen.
With no option left,
our lethal stroke’s deft.

Harbour no ill will 
for blood that did spill,
in as was ordained ~
our heart is unstained.

In line of duty,
death too has beauty,
being but a dream,
that so chanced to stream.

Erect was our stance
through...

I thee take thy smoke in hand...
Taste buds blossom blumes fumigated by blandness for all this madness.

Hence forth with my aching pains...
Gives me none no new world gains.

Happenchance gasp's that choke my pipe's airid winds...
Again'st Gods laws of healthy body's house that goes on to...

I reflect on what you look like now!
You were beauteous when I saw you last.
What precious gifts did time endow?
All those years of tranquil absence
As you slumbered away the time somehow.

I wonder if your eyes remain bright,
They always looked at me kindly.
I think that, if...

Moment of death, life force sucked out,
that it’s the end, we have no doubt,
being offered no time to think,
for it’s over, in but a blink.

Having survived this happenchance,
what’s the way we now choose to dance?
Are we as yet not overawed,
that each life breath’s a gift...

Life 
armed with the fates
   of futility
   besieges.
So be it  with the rose,
   her beauty  asway,
   pushed around
   by breezy happenchance,
powerless to stop   
   her petals
   to...

By Mystic Rose and Robert James Liguori

When the sun goes down on this hillbilly town
I will meet you there where the stars never frown
Down in the valley where the trees breathe easy
you and I will walk the sea slow, then easy-peasy
and as your arm encircles...

Mother nature never fails to steal the show 
As the seasons come and seasons go
Spring doth bring on fine romance 
Joy in happenchance
Where on hills
Dance
Daffodils 
Summer’s charmed entrance
On the wind Autumn leaves prance
Winter brings a wonderland of snow
Mother nature never fails to steal the show.

The day after

This evening saddens me, right now Thailand
celebrates the New Year with fireworks
pathetic lives for a moment lit up by artificial stars
In three hours, time, it is our turn to shine  
be blinded by the jollity, of bright objects in the sky
talking about...
