Best Knelled Poems

The tale below was carved one night
upon the stone, by candlelight
...most won’t believe, but some just might

The Friar's Heel beside the way
tilting toward the stones arrayed
at Stonehenge where the Devil played
and tossed the monolith that day.

Zareba formed of massive stones,
encircled 'round the Devil's throne;
but on the meadow Heaven owned 
transparent light of Angels shone.

Back to the cave, the gate to Hell
they...

The time of growth and change is done and past.
From thaw to frost activity prevailed, 
And change came often, often coming fast, 
Till finalizing Fall all toil curtailed.
With wintertime’s quiescence, come at last,
The old year’s final breath has been exhaled. 
   And now...

The sky  is stark, the air is cool and still
The black cat’s  run, the birds unfold all day
I sit  down here and with my totty pray
Ye cast o’ foolish thoughts, you raped my will.
We’ve  each enraged the bureaucratic mill.
Oh frigid purse,...

FNB Stadium, Johannesburg, on Tuesday, December 10


A tear silently crawled down my cheek
As eulogies fall and despair rise to the peak.
I see the crowd, the leaders, the well-wishers
Here they are gathered like never before-

Dark clouds have gathered in the East-
Old mounds overturn by the leash.
Dusty...

                       Fate fetched them crushed in a crash, faint in hopes

I planned a romantic dinner for us, that beautiful night,
alone within our little world, she, me and our candlelight.
I had an inner feeling, that day could change my life,
she might be the one I was dreaming, as my future wife

I was waiting for the day,...

It was Mother's Day...
A day to Honor All Mother's
We went to Church...
Sat with my daughter in the pew...
Roses were given...
to Grandma's, Mother's, All Women too...
With the choice I chose the very best... 
Red Red Rose...Pastor smiled at me... 
Every year... he knows

These iron bells they toll for them
In George W. Bush's war.
The fallen brave whose lives have end.
These iron bells they toll for them.
Each peal that's knelled we all condemn
the senseless deaths we can't ignore.
These iron bells they toll for them
In George W. Bush's war....

Whisperers of sweet words clanging in her mind 
Eyes so weary, environs were the scattered love letters 
A night came, when a gentleman decided to pledge on her troth
As she walked in, rippling was the tailored red dress she wore
Just a blink, down he knelled,...

Last night
I dreamt
Dream-- disaster Zone

As I saw in the distance
twas dark within the sky
Clouds many black as night
you couldn't tell 
until..
Lighting strikes.. 
then beheld light
Far in distance.. 
there was
lighting striking every where
coming from 
a center point in the air
as I could see.. 
clouds rolling above...

Aging jagged skin gave him depth in perceiving eyes
Ridged hands defined he was a man of work
Seldom had he spoken and when he did he uttered wisdom 
He smelled a storm from a thousand miles away 
He peacefully sat on the withered porch gently swaying...

Jaded mojo has faded
Quelled knelled chime dulled and muffled
No longer heard nor noticed
Surfeit of sameness plated...

Oh frigid purse, I never meant...
