Do Miracles Occur
He stood on such bandy legs, shaking,
I thought he would fall. His cigarette
Puffing like the grey white clouds above.

A lone heron flies high and jagged
Like the tips of the mountains
That brush this clouded sky, and surround the sea

Where our ship skims the shore with its
Light,...

One Day In a Forest Meadow, Love Did Occur
The steps come easy
Almost hurried as I tread
The uneven trail before me
The sun is low in the sky
Distracted by the long
Angled shadows
Before me
Brought back to you
By the rushing sound
Of your breathing
Like a stony brook
I reach for you with
My eyes
My hand
I take hold of your smile
As...

Two Deaths Did Occur
Two Deaths Did Occur

 In my life, two deaths did occur 
 Which were both hard to endure; 
 My father was the first to die; 
 For him a long time I did cry. 
 (Until about 30 than never again.)

 Eternal Father song...

If Tomorrow Does Not Occur
If tomorrow does not occur 
The world would be quite a mess.
Some would dart and some would linger
If tomorrow does not occur.
With people rushing hither and thither
One and all would lose their heads.
If tomorrow does not occur 
The world would be quite a mess....

The Change Will Occur Fast
I know that things will get better for me and for all,
I know things will improve and happiness will spread,
prosperity will spread; love will spread;
I know appreciation, gratitude, and energy will spread.

The way for a better tomorrow is to simply believe it will get better,

When Does Phenomenal Moment of Existence Occur
When does phenomenal moment of existence occur...?

Otherwise titled: Regaling eldest sibling
delineating her sixty third successful orbit
around the sun December first 2021.

About consciousness who can tell
After haploid gametes
able, eager, and ready
to yield eukaryotic (diploid) cell?

What triggers instantaneous
biological, ideological, ontological process,
when microscopic entity
housing protoplasmic substance

When Cruelty and Suffering Occur, It Isn'T God's Will
Jehovah God isn't responsible for bad things that happen, Satan is.
Satan is responsible for the cruelty and suffering, the cause of it all is entirely his.
When wicked things happen, some people say that it's God's will.
But Satan is the one responsible when people lie, steal...

A Shipwrecked Must Occur
That shipwreck will  provoke
consequently the breaking of the old vessels.

Those vessels alike those of the old galleons
would contain coins that we use daily
but that are already moldy, worn
and therefore no longer valid. 

The vessels that contain 
rotten coins in the form of:
debates,  tangent...

When the Crazies Occur
Math is really stressing
It isn’t such a blessing

But what if this was happening?

Aunt Love broke up
With Uncle Caring, yup.

My best friend Motivation
Got a crush on Hallucination.

And I heard that Ms. Persuasion Bell
Married Mr. Laziness T. Ell

What if my neighbor Boredom
Was heading out to somewhere foreign?

My...

Did Yesterday's Mistakes Occur
I don't know  
Which way is home, 
Yesterday is kept in store 
By memory alone, 
The inaudible screams 
The motionless violence, 
They bounce in the emptiness 
Of utter silence, 
Truth and happiness oscillate 
But are not of the same sort, 
I'm lost between connotations...

Occur At Once
Occurring being fearful the winter
while the mid-night minutes
by anew wake of dawn —
the snow-alike rain been falling
and the Cathedral is hollow-ringer
sudden gave off fifth pealing of belling 
and hour done announce by dawn turn,
over the semi vision bout darkness	
and through my window glass
the winter I...

A Smudge In a Relationship Can Occur
The smudge of the relationship can occur,
   It can be so insecure,

Like through the door,
You hear but can't see, 
  You want to see inside but you're out.

  ?Communication so vague,
  ? depth of one so translucent , other so...

To Occur the Words She Said
Am I so alone,
So far beneath Her feet,
As I make myself out to be?
I'm always so cold
So complimented anger
For six years running

These men have come to hear
The speech of broken hearts
I've waited so many years
To occur the words She said

"When it's al said and done

Racial Slur Did Occur
Racial Slur Did Occur

We heard that Trump said a racial slur;
Which right before  our eyes did occur;
Intimidating;
Humiliating;
Yet, what it was never knew for sure.

Know Death Does Occur
Know Death Does Occur

What we know is death does occur,
When we lived life good and pure,
Each moment loved,
Then were shoved.
By Trump, who we had to endure.
