Nothing further can be said.
No more shall now be spoken
from dispassion's distant bed.
Nothing further can be said,
as such deals are, by the dead,
struck mute. So even broken,
nothing further can be said.
No more shall now be spoken.
We have never met across the oceans blue
I know that I am the one you write about
Your romantic words are sheer perfection
I drink in every syllable
My heart s k p s a beat

Just word from you and I will be by your side….
WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ARE HAPPILY MARRIED AND THEY ARE WRITTEN ABOUT YOUR WIFE!
I simply don’t understand …

Catastrophic horrors inflict the grounds of every existing continent.
Mass killings and unimaginable tortures have become a means of
consumption. A taste of gut wrenching,hellish afflictions for the new
face of this confused,chaotic world.
The gathering has long begun "enormous masses" hell bent on
creating Armageddon.
Clearing the bodies from their paths,under the mid-day desert sun.
Making their way to reach the road to the inedible.
Approaching the day the entire earth is disrupted with global doom.
The clues are becoming more and more legible, rivers of blood are
forming into oceans flowing, staining the moon.
Taking for granted the air we breathe,the blind easily to assume
that the soil we sowed our seeds will forever bloom.
And just when they think it is safe,at a time when all tounges have
joined together under one rule.
Once honorable men have now adopted their ways,non-Islamic
daughters,wearing a vail to school.
A short treaty arrives and peace is mirracously restored.
Then all will change in the blink of an eye,six months from year
number four.
The beast is knocking, be aware the beast is pleased that we so
easily opened the door. Just a few more steps"till the end" as all
humanity once again has been brought down to its knees.
How much more suffering can man possibly endure?
Bold trees proclaim November news;
Ma Nature frames impressive views.
Autumn colors achieve their prime
while weather shifts to cooler clime.
Service of veterans we cheer;
election rules the atmosphere.
Voters each year are asked to choose;
Winners glean payment for their dues.
Who can predict ahead of time?
No one can trace the paradigm.
Candidates jeer while campaigns smear;
November comes and goes each year.
The month ends and events enthuse;
my hardened heart revives its muse
in praise for health and wealth sublime.
Thanks be to God as church bells chime;
grace and gratitude reappear.
With winter snows, can peace draw near?

for November Lay contest, William Kekaula
I used HMS and Rhyme Zone
What are we to do regarding our war veterans?
They served and fought for their country
Many paid the ultimate price dying in a far off foreign land
Or were injured by enemy action often carrying the mental scars
The cost of being a veteran for freedom the freedom that we take for granted
It's been like this since the 20th Century Wars and soldiers on and on
You all know the wars and dates but do you know that the veterans suffer?
Some end up in jail others live on the streets And many commit suicide
What of 17 who died in VA carparks? What are we to do about this?
This is in America but what of the UK? The veterans there have the same issues
There are many charities helping out they have millions in the bank
How could that cash help our vets? And what else can be done to help?
Ending wars will never happen but ending veterans suicide must
These service people fought for us each one must be cared for
As we would our own children for one time they were our defence
Now we must defend them help them in regard their new enemies
The depression and suicide and stigma because what if you were a veteran?
With the wars still in your head their lives must be valued
As must what they did serving their nations in war
Till peace reigns the issue is here safeguarding our veterans
Like they did for us...
