Sad Sea Tale
SAD SEA TALE

There was once an old man of the ocean
For a mermaid he had a devotion
But instead of two pins
She’d a tail and some fins
Which precluded their harmonic motion

But in spite of her disparate corpus
They maintained their romance polymorphous
‘Til a herring one day
Brought a...

All the days, I’ve not so patiently waited, waited for the one, the yang to my yin.
Brevity precluded me enumerating all the subtle joys of you, yet, your eyes,
Charismatic orbs of jovial laughter, crinkled from sunny days, and blue as sky.
Dangerous man you are, yet,...

Chi Rho
can we become better than we are 
to be our brother's keeper, complete
allow all else to fall by the way
silent and constant is always strong
words and action only speak so long
my suffering is nothing compared
to the innocent, to the guilty

at the center of the universe...

Seven Stones In My Crown
My Hunt was for the sonnet gems.
My complacence was absolutely stunning.
Wiping out my fake dreams,the key to my 
happiness was setting a realisable goal.
On the island of luzon, a beautiful scenic 
province is well established.
Our poor people wer imprisoned in the 
backyard of the Asheville.
To...

Premium Member Birthright Denied
morning sun, a newborn babe,
exhales her first breath each dawn in mist 
daybreak’s kiss
straddles the North Carolina and Tennessee line
Cherokee Nation’s last reservation
remains within a hazy, vaporous veil

nearly two centuries crept past
since 14,000 ill and hungry Cherokees
trekked the Trail of Tears
moving westward wearily
to sparse lands...

The Midget Matador
Near small Rapid City,
a man came up to me,
said,”Hey, I’ll show you a good time.”
I thought that meant girls,
turns out, as things unfurled,
the man had something else in mind.

We went to a garage,
a rusty, grease-stained blotch,
type of place you’d see a drug deal,
not sure I...

Harmony of Spheres
Harmony of the Spheres

Oh, you’re included; the path to
Knowing God’s occluded; this
Denouement of the movement
has been precluded in this speech;
salvation is out of reach; no storm can
fill the breach of gapping schemes and dreams—
this much I know: upon the crest of dawn; his emissary
sits in...

Premium Member Chastisement
She appeared one day seeking a chance,
This chance rested with me to proffer.
I saw potential problems at first glance,
Looking past the skills she might offer.

But God precluded my wrong intention,
Because inside my heart He could see.
An imperfection needing His intervention,
He used this young woman to...

Danny Salazar In Leavenworth
They could have ranged together foreever, in just that way
The moment of experience, un-cloaked and with innocent play
In co-creation perfect, when the Lord frequently appeared With approval and fulness of strength, and nothing he feared
Since Abel was able. That is all. Competent and true. Simple...

Walter B. Canfield
1872-1914

It is in my best interest indeed,
Now that my name is about to be called,
To come forth to the White Throne,
To make confession, and to be judged,
For my legion of sins and trespasses,
Committed in no small part, as
The irresistible charms of one Lutie...

Peter Piper's Preciosity
 Peter’s prestidigitator progeny perambulated peripatetically with prodigious prowess. Perhaps his  precocity precluded presumptuous perspicacity?

Parents Tribulations
Perspired with pertinacity to bring up their progenies cozily,
Indescribably fondled them to make  them smile forever !
Built brick by brick their dreams about their off springs,
Hoped they would be cared in their twilight existence !!

Attained bread-winner status and focused on their selfish ends,
 But...

Rewind ( Part One )
In a world made for you and me,
We'd set our souls oh so free,
From the caging, life-changing misery,
That has precluded us from our serenity,

I'd wear that glimmering white dress,
That would light up all the surrounding dimness,
As I'd embrace and caress,
Your innocent soul, scarred all over...

I couldn’t sleep. I was lying in bed watching the patterns reflected moonlight made on my ceiling when I heard the faint beep of the kitchen microwave. I smelled popcorn.

I decided to fill up my water bottle and see who was up. I slipped on...
