Best Preserved Poems
In motion through all spiritual existence,
my warm, cool, tendrils leave a trail through long distance
under the shadows of the cosmos in peaceful coexistence.
I sigh with devotion, the beauty nature has become with my assistance.
I touch and caress you without any resistance.
I look at creation, a sweet, innocent child, and I love the way it moves.
My Warm, cool, tendrils leave a trail through long distance,
feasting in pristine, faith, and Thanksgiving. Humanity approves.

A canopy of flowers
'neath a shady bower
Exquisite weather
for a life together
We pledge our oath
in solemn troth
Happiness preserved
~ of memories deserved

When I wonder in those days counting look
Smelling love's scent ever painted leaves hold
In barren variation i did took
A stem from the tree that never grows old.
Against present hours do i fortify
The urge to reveal grace of such account
That none of their faces can home my life
For memories alone they can't surmount.
Lo, to save remembrance of youthful love
Let fixed mind remind through eyes what i sight
My sweetest escape when I'm left with sobs
This is a small tribute i wrote tonight.
Time so fast can't take what black ink lays still
In my verses our love saved without ill.

He did not see her there
She had no time to stop
Fate at the intersection
Two paths forever cross
The ending dealt to each
Gone without last words
Living forever in memory
Now as spirit preserved

Pickled like gherkins in vinegar
Crystallised forever in sugar
Set and translucently Jellied ...
Hung like smoked, salted meat
Pigments crushed from earth
brushes from fine animal hair
Is it because they freeze
the sitter's image which
survived as the best image
of the sitter for millineums?
Linseed oil Egg tempera hand
mixed by devoted apprentices
Were paintings used for
communication to the viewer
Eyes moving behind the paintings..
before humans could read
or write?
To capture the likeness prior
the invention of photography?

When (Clive Staples) C. S. Lewis
met Joy Gresham, a Jewess,
he had questioned his faith in God.
She gently proved his doubt was flawed.
Later in his book, …Grief Observed
Lewis writes of what Joy preserved.
Changed by what he had learned of pain,
from his wife who gave him free rein.
for Dr. Ram's contest " Husbands are in
heaven whose wives scold not"
a quatrain with an air of clerihew
I recommend a study of their brief marriage -
C.S. Lewis and Joy Davidman Gresham.

Your Love
has become
the arid rose, that I preserved
from that day, when I was Ill.
You brought them then, when your love was most pure
Do you remember that warm, delicious glow
Summer
We lay in the grass soaked with dew
staring at the stars, crickets singing
as crickets often do
We lay hand in hand together..
Do you remember when our love was new?
Then fall came upon us
Fire Red Leafs, and the harvest moon?
I cannot remember a time, where I fell more in love with you?
Then Snowflakes glistend and fell from the sky
We grew apart, and I didn't understand why
Fragile like my heart
The Rose broke apart
Cold,
unforgiving wind,
swept it from my grasp
never to be seen again
Hands shaking
as I watch the Geese fly far from here
Angry girl your bitterness
numbing hyperthermia, will kill your sweetest smile
I miss you today, and for always
but
roses
can
never grow
when winter is so unforgiving
and hopeless

As if Old Father Time cast down his hoary gaze
to shed a tear of amber upon the world,
to freeze on canvas this instant of perfection,
this loving shadowplay of aged man and young girl.
She sits so small, a china and alabaster doll
wrapped up in the tepid sunset chill
of fires dying distantly; as far as the minds eye
can discern the dance of twilight over dale and hill.
This last waning evening of the month of May,
the old man, galvanic with the rush of seasonal transition,
pushes her upon her silhouetted swing,
love forever frozen in time, locked in this position.
For the tear of amber fell, coalesced around them
orange, flaming yellow and forms of sculpted black;
entombed together in the iris of a slowly setting sun,
content to not look forward, more content to not look back.

Verse
the book of Esther embodies the courage and the willingness to take a stance
for such a time as this to be positioned by God and to take a chance
yet the situation in society today is not all that much different in fact
with political machinations and the moral of mankind completely at a lack
but God has situated us to go out and make a change
preserved and positioned for our promotion which by Him has been prearranged
to be pregnant with the possibilities that God has given us to be strong
to stand up in righteousness and tell the people when they are wrong
to be obedient and listen to the Spirit of the Holy Lord
to whatever is needed even if it means to come under the sword
as obedience is better than sacrifice you must hold true to your position
and don't worry about what the world is doing just stay focused on your mission
by saying yes to any and all that of you God does ask
and believing unconditionally that He will equip you for the task
presented with a challenge Queen Esther was given a godly instruction
to put herself between her people and their total destruction
she was positioned in the right place
with the Lord God's saving grace
preserved and positioned for her promotion from the Lord Our God
destined for greatness by possessing an obedient heart

PRESERVED FOR POSTERITY
awesome sensations
compliant
rapid
prodigious
astonishing
a visceral
drifting into irrelevance
a cluster
of strange nostalgia
into memorys lane
a fragility
of existence
fusing emotion
a meditation
on mortal
summoning subtlety
with a distracting
aura
such allusions
of grandiosity
manipilated
recalled
by
experience
THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

For even you have heard
Bless your birth
Down here on earth
Bless be your eyes
Your heart painted our skies
You are the first
Journey finding was worth
Created lands
Your loving hands
You see
Far beneath
Indeed You hear
Through each tear
It shows
Your love does grow
Memories remain
Through each and every change
Graphting
Drafting
Penciling the art
Fine lines of the heart
My destiny
Harmony
It is real
It is you, my Lord Jesus Christ, that heals
Loving arms of protection
True inspiration
Reviving
Reminding
Protecting
Connecting
Blessing it
Expressed it
Who
You knew

A thing for tomorrow reserved
Is a thing for today preserved:
The still-unused has not one served
The pleasure from saving: 'Deserved'
With things for tomorrow reserved
One's strength has been, somehow, conserved
And - some don't know - one's health preserved;
For tomorrows pains drugs reserved.
The Reserved is often preserved
And, there, waits to have you soon served!

There was love
that's why I cultivated the flowers garden
that's why I made fly the crimson pigeon on the blue sky
that's why I drawn the sinuous white clouds in my canvas
that's why I lit up the muted evening light
I know you've gone long time ago
but there was love in my heart
that's why I kept you in me
that's why I made mummy tape to care your corpse
that's why I took care everyday so that everyone know this love
that's why I decorated your every activities on the painting canvas
yes
there is love still
that's why I come almost to visit to your mummy
which is preserved since the birth of love
