Premium Member - When Autumn Passes Away -

The freedom to love is threatened
                              Is it possible to goes for happiness
                                   in a world of deep injustice?

                           There is a gray shutter on the mountain
                          before the sun suddenly lights up the day
                                Smiling, whistling and soft tones
                        The delightful taste of autumn's sweet fruits

                             Autumn does not regret its short time
                                  The "Scream" that was spun 
                                         by colorful leaves
                                Sip on a hot Blackcurrant toddy
                                Autumn closed the door quietly
                             and leaves the ice key on the stairs

                                    Death, with its kiss of fire
                                   When the angels of heaven
                                  sprinkle sugar on the ground
                               Winter drives through your dream
                                Feel the silence and the absence,
                                      appreciate the presence

Premium Member Where the Cleaner Never Passes Through the Door

Where the Cleaner Never Passes Through the Door

Locked safely in a corner of my mind
Where the cleaner never passes through the door
A room I enter now and then to find
A thought that will, my innocence restore

Not a cobweb or a speck of dust
No disorder where the records lay
All appears as though I just
Closed that little door the other day

I take my time to browse the shelves
As they from slumber slowly wake
Then each in turn present themselves
In always pleasing forms they take

In never ending streams they pour
Onward to the party held
To celebrate they came before
That age of innocence was felled

Dancing still as they did then          
Faultless in their ignorance
Laughing as they will again
Till I have run the full distance

Premium Member The Peace That Passes Understanding


    Bring me a dream from the depth of your eyes,
          Let me drown in those hidden ecstasies,
    Fling a sunbeam from the cool sleet of ice,
          Let it frown away forbidden worries,
 Spare me a while, set me down on my knees,
 Share me a smile, get me crowned with His peace.

As Kitty Passes On

You sit and stare
upon your dish,
no strength to bear
even as I wish.

For you to live
forever strong
were mine to give
your life prolong.

But being neither 
here nor there
Death comes hither
So be prepared.

Before the Moment Passes

Two spirits of passions
From ever separating worlds 

Watching and hoping with intensity

Drifting on winds of nowhere
Tracings of comfort and familiarity

Fearing the change that arrives with risk

Ignoring pangs in exchanges of nothings
Yet there exists a sweet fervor between them

That unyielding thirst of eternal desiccation

Two souls of this fiery desire
From existence so indistinct

On parallel journeys reaching for the one another

Admittance revering nature’s truth
Building intensities more than either cares to confess

Each wanting to stake all for a chance…silence prevailing

Passing the eons of eternities boundaries
No end in sight of this voiceless duel of pride

Begging inside to grapple the moment before it passes

Two spirits of passion
From ever separating worlds

If to chance a moment’s gaze to see that they truly are one

Time With Children Passes All Too Fast - Traditional Cinquain

tiny hands, small feet
chuckling little laughs
I can't have a seat
burning in my calves
when is my retreat?

Messes all day
overthrown by smiles
child lead the way
track them for miles

one small step
turns to leaps
where's time kept?

not here...
not there...

WHERE?

Premium Member Till the Storm Passes By

It was early morning when I heard the thunder roll,
As I looked out my window I saw pouring rain,
It was coming down in buckets it wasn't fit for anything,
People were running to find shelter from the storm,
It was another dismal day without sunshine again.

Amid the sound of thunder and lightning in the sky,
I wondered if the sun would ever shine again,
I thought of how the weather could get our spirits down
If we face our burdens alone in a world gone mad.

Some trials we face come from the choices we make,
While others are unavoidable like rain,
Our circumstances will change in life overtime,
But God has always remained the same.

We never know what the future will bring,
And what storms we'll face over time,
We must totally believe in things unseen,
And keep a positive faith all the time.

There is nothing wrong in admitting our fears,
From the trials that we faced over the years,
Our lives will go on one day at a time,
So we should accept each day as they come,

When we find dark storm clouds overhead in the sky
We shouldn't stumble through life in the dark,
When it seems like all hope is gone in our lives
We should trust in God and walk in his light,
For God didn't promise us a rose garden,
He said there will be times with storms in our lives,
We should let Him be our shelter from the storm.

So, the next time it rains and rains for days on end, 
Use an umbrella to weather the storm,
No matter how long it rains it never lasts forever,
The sun will shine again and when it does,
We may even be blessed with a rainbow,
God's covenant promise to never leave us,
He will always be our shelter in times of need,

Till the storm passes by.

As Time Passes 

Today a swift breath
of wind slapped my cheeks
leaving a tingling chill.

The sky’s face grew gloomy
shedding crocodile tears
falling like water rocks.

Dormant by passing time
flower buds and seeds
sought storage shelters
in terrestrial cabins.

Powerless
we sit by the window
contemplating the new arrival.

Eventually Time Passes

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” 

Eventually time passes...
Sometimes slowly and sometimes quickly, the truth of the matter is this...
I carry vague recollections of words spoken from people who have passed before me. I can slightly remember an, “I love you”, or even maybe a “goodbye” here or there. But the deepest connection comes from the intimate recollections of impressions left on my heart. Sentiments of compassion leaves footprints on my soul and my emotions will never forget those senses of that sort of love. I have memorized each everlasting feeling left behind from lives left. Sometimes leaving without warning, which makes my feelings more raw as time passes. Sometimes they leave slowly which makes my mind remember, but with ease. 
Eventually time passes…and with each moment I commemorate all affections left behind.

Peace That Passes All Understanding

Peace That Passes All Understanding 

As a Christian you first come to the Lord for salvation
 Then after that point you begin the walk of sancification
 It's a process that you learn from the master over time
 We forge our way to get in the front of he line
 Yet clearer heads have prevailed some find their in the sewer
 It's a very narrow road on your way to heaven
 It's not some one time shopping event at your local 7 eleven
 James Dean in the splendor in the grass no one gets a free pass
 To taste and see that the Lord is good mark my word
 The peace that passes all understanding flows from the heart
 A white dove in correlation to the symbol of it's parting love
 We really can't put it in words as if you haven't heard
 It shall guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus the Lord
 The radiance of the sun has tainted my inner vision
 It was found by Paul on the road to Damascus on his horse
 After the day of pentecost it's power was unleashed on all believer's
 Through the hours that the beloved Mary spent in prayer
 It is found in a child born into a world filled with desolation
 It's the peace that passes all understanding in a journey of sorts
 Jesus in the garden praying to the father to be soon unleashed
 To those who receive Jesus Christ as the Lord & savior
 I'm much appreciative for this amazing presence of God

The Day Passes By

Sometime I can’t see past the day.
Many times I get in my own way.
Thoughts swirl, then land on the page,
Just like a beast released from a cage.

The sun rises as I thought it would.
The light shines down, just like it should.
I hear a voice and drift away,
Wonder where I will wind up today?

My mind wanders what shall I do?
I see a smile, it sees me through.
I can’t see where I’m going,  just where I’ve been,
I know that the start is a good place to begin.

I begin to live my life day by day.
Words speak what my heart has to say.
I seem to find comfort where there was none,
I see so much peace I try to grab some.

The day flies by, I don’t know where it went.
I dig in my pocket, but the money is spent.
I find a piece of paper that you gave to me,
All of a sudden, I see what will be.

I spread my wings expecting to fly,
To reach out, then soar through the sky.
The sun sets, it starts to get dark,
Another day recorded inside my heart.

The stars come out and shine so bright,
Guiding me through my journey this night.
They sparkle like diamonds catching my eye,
The last thing I see as the day passes by.
