Best Knowledge Poems

(In a Lush Garden Somewhere Out There)

The student stands where shifting sands of thought
Once firm with reason 
now elusive truths are sought.
Its splendor wanes 
a threadbare fading strand,
A quest for wisdom 
in this digital land.

Sage: (With gentle gaze)
A sprite of bytes 
on data's wings

For the nonce, living soul,

you will breathe in new lessons through our tender tethering

as your seeking thirst is slaked through your skin;

for life's osmosis seeps mortal knowledge not implanted at conception.

We are judged by lies and by someone else's crimes.
They think they know so much but a little knowledge is dangerous stuff.

They can't forget what others did to them to make the truth appear so dim.
So now we must fight or be in dark light.

Insisting one might was well be dead
Feasting upon dark emotional words
This is how the young have been led
Magnetic this compass for the birds
Signal sent be that of infrared 
Drawing them all in by the herds
This be part of their pseudoscience 
By misusing the cognitive science...

We grow* in the knowledge of God, the lover of our soul
Truly giving Himself with devotion’s pureness-whole
Indeed securing our salvation by His compassion’s role
Always keeping us in His mind for His best goal.

We bloom in the knowledge of God, the discerner of every heart
Truly revealing...

Bid Them Return With Knowledge Of Eternity

Send out your best wandering tramps
to the far halls of mortal darkness
Bid them return with knowledge of eternity
and golden words secretly hidden

Beware phantoms will cut and burn
their hides that are soft and tender
Where demonic fires consume each mortal soul

A Word of Knowledge

The Lord gave me a word of knowledge for one 
particular person but, it really could be for more.

You are feeling God has abandoned you but, in
reality because you have been in fear because 
of circumstances from bad actions and decisions
on your...

My thoughts today, take me to the window

Windows made of words are in my focus

In twilight's realm where...
moonbeams entwine.
There are two owls engaged...
in a contrast of minds:
A Great Horned Owl so proud and strong!
And a Great Gray Owl whis is cunning and long.

Amidst the trees their feathers shone,
"Who is the wisest?" their voices cried...

As their debate ignited, fierce and...

Leftover wine

Once, you and I, we tried to catch the wind. Once, you and I, tried to touch the clouds. We marvel at our world and we danced freely with the wildflowers and the dancing sea.


You were the prettiest and kindest woman, I ever seen....

Suspense is a thing worth not knowing
Dying for the knowledge of the mystery
From novice to brainiac ever flowing,
Slipping into the dark annals of history.

Shudders at the noise of victims’ crying
Suspense is a thing worth not knowing,
Keeping chilblains on the skin denying
Revealing information ne’er extolling.

Red herrings...

It was a late springtime day, and the bluebirds all were singing,
Outside the classroom window, while the bells all were ringing.

I had a lucky window seat, which afforded quite amazing views,
Of lovely natural colorings, the greens pinks oranges and blues.

I had a curious eager mind,...

Of the pure…placing:
Each step forward
With the slightest lift
   of the upper ankle
So to set down his 
Paws — first the toes,
Then the heels
