Premium Member I Love My State of Oregon
Oregon’s, wildlife, mountains, lakes, and bogs
Fields of green, awaken refreshed at dawn
Where salmon runs the rivers blue to spawn
Drawn wandering above the sea of fog   

Black-tailed and mule deer birth their newborn fawns
Where shaggy mane elks labor their spring calves 
Rustle sounds while...

Oregon Coast Vacation

My heart yearns for a place of peaceful desire
A place where the impulse of adventure will entice
Florence, Newport, and Yachats Oregon Coast where the tall pine grow
Where rivers and ocean are turquoise gradient of paradise

A place where the impulse of adventure will entice
Camping,...

The Oregon Ducks
A day belongs to you and I
side by side swings the impossible
ways of doubt.

To embrass the true moment
only to quiver to turn back 
embaresment to huttle that 
touch down goal.

We will embark on tackt as it
shall be conquered to a new
habitate known as the quack
attack!

GO...

Oregon Trail
In-pine-sweet air
In humus soil
Is where I rest, away from care,
And trail weary toil.

One morning feathers filled the air,
With wooden shafts that sped
And left this traveler to lie
With poisoned arrowhead....

Premium Member Daybreak In Oregon
Today the air seems cold and still
darkness has triumphed over the day

when hope for the return of daylight
touches of a lavender appear in the sky above

looking east the horizon is a rich royal blue
with black mountain silhouetted highlights

to the west sky is dark purple a...

Oregon State Flag
 
 
"STATE OF OREGON" flag
A Navy blue field
Escutcheon in gold
The majestic American eagle
Stands proudly above
Expressing support for
Its admittances in
Eighteen-hundred-fifty-nine
Into the union with thirty-three stars
A blazing sun setting
Over the Pacific Ocean,
Mountains, forests and a Conestoga wagon
All representing the dynamic natural resources
And splendor of...

Oregon Inmate Vs Nike
Oregon Inmate VS Nike

Nike’s been sued for its Air Jordan sneaks
I’m thinking the lawsuit’s a little bit weak
It’s by a young pimp caught beating a “john”
By stomping and kicking him on and on, on
He said that the “john” had skipped out on a client
And he...

Astoria Oregon
A small town in Oregon
Fishing boats curzing along the Columbia River and the Pacific Ocean
Busy, fishing, boats
City of many fishers
They tell me you can smell the ocean, for I belive them the smell of the salty water in the air
And they tell me that the...

Yachats, Oregon
Creeping in to crash
in a surge of turbulence
and a crescendo of froth
the tide returns.

Endless eternal crashing,
eons of smashing into
rocks worn smooth
as obsidian.

Great lava rocks thrown about
by the shore now lapped in calm
as out to sea the building
of another cycle begins.

Slowly it builds
growing in heighth
building the...

Roseburg, Oregon
This poem is dedicated to heroes who were killed in Roseburg, Oregon just because they were Christians.
Today you left this world...
Today you stood the test...
Deny Christ and live,
proclaim Him and face the death...
You didn't have time to say goodbye...
Your last word was firmly "YES"
You wouldn't...
