Our Midnight The Unseen Within
        ( Collaboration )

Silent unto our sense, yet musical
With eternal harmony, they move
About our darkened vision, the beautiful ones,
Angels of destiny.

Pale with the dawn, sun-golden with the noontide,
They mingle with our moments;
There is no...

THE CITY AND THE STATE OF PLAY TODAY

No one worries about morals today 
They follow the rules they create
So to them all is ok
Those on the outside looking in 
Are the only ones feeling queasy 
As avarice and selfishness triumphs
So easily 

Good corporate citizens they...

Elections are less than a week away
  And all the candidates have something to say.

  With nervy tenure the ads were on the wing
  Tossing the dirt as far and as much as they could fling.

  When the signs are all...

Silent unto our sense, yet musical
With eternal harmony, they move
About our darkened vision, the beautiful ones,
Angels of destiny.

Pale with the dawn, sun-golden with the noontide,
They mingle with our moments;
There is no sadness that they do not share,
No night they are not near.

Even as flowers that...

I’ve fewer days ahead of me
than those I have been blessed to see.
Though time moves on so rapidly,
	my hopes sustain.

God still has plans for me, I know.
He’s guiding me as to and fro
I move through life with goals in tow
	that never wane.

Have I implied that...

linger not by the lagoon
where languid legends lie
lost within the labyrinths
of lonely hearts

long laments whispered
atop lofty ladders in lieu
of loyalties mistaken
for lust in moonlight

let us listen you and i
to lazy lush perfumes
borne of lavish lavender
while languishing in longing

let us scribble our letters 
both with leaf...

Republicans? Immoral! Lord, that's all there is to that!
Like in the song, "Their heads are full of cotton, hay, and rags,"
Though Democrats (not better) hate to stoop so low to win,
They feel Christ's death, seek brotherhood, at times admit to sin.

Republicans are arrogant, love "trickle...

International faith
Identical for your thought 
Idolatry rejected
 
Surrender to God
Submit high morality
Safety to your heart

Light in the darkness
Largess liberality 
Last justice lawful 

All peoples message
Ably ablution to pray 
A generous soul 
  
Magnify all you
Mainly to balance your soul
Maintain your spirit

Acrostic Senryu's....

Autumn  10-2-23

Autumn Pathetique

God winks with fall in blessedness
A pathetique from a soft breeze,
Silk sonatas, scarlet tresses,
Abundant blessings and jubilees.

Veiled in gold, summer’s parting kiss,
God winks with fall in blessedness,
As amber shadows reminisce
Songs of geese with tender finesse.

Rust tremolos of grace confess
Thankfulness in coral colognes
God...

Early Days

An epic story told of men on earth,
My father’s life, and also mine
Wind planted weeds, we had a humble birth,
Not sprung from rose or grape on vine.

Our whole existence born of charity,
A “gift” of former Indian land,
The “Cherokee Land Run” was spoils of war
White...

Horizon of knelling bells
Adequate feeling bestowed
Hue, odor, sound, sensation
Harmoniously dwell
Tangible gnosticism
Catharsis
Potency yells
Largess
Ample satisfaction
Darkness, Thy power quells
Allah, family, thought

Camelot...Freedom
 
Allah: Arabic word for God...

Darkness in the world suffocates and prevails 
I retrieve plaintively The Canterbury’s Tales  

Begin my own pilgrimage to the land of kings and knights 
When there were other meanings to the word heights 

To the time of true chivalry not outrageous impudence 
To the...

Would that our love were constant as the Sun,
Who though He needs his daily rest too,
And slips under the cover of earth’s horizon
To find such bliss as He can without us
Always in his sight, still rises to greet us,
With each new dawn, as warm as...

two little squirrels build walls

two little squirrels 
having a quarrel
both talk smack
nuts are crack
heads are spinning
why are they hissing
there's a largess of nuts 
right there in the tree
but these two
can you believe it
are hissing over a leftover nut
that fell on the ground
outrageous!
chunks of hair goes...
