Best Scrupulously Poems

And I begin my own steep climb into 
The Chalkland Downs                                  ...

A woman, or a girl,
hooded and hiding,
may pensively gaze down 
at the sun, or a sinking stone.
Or a man, not a boy,
neither hooded nor hiding,
may, in her stead, gaze, ecstatic, upward
at the corner of the mystery.
A crawler on the oceans floor
may cling as an ocean...

Tomorrow’s history makers
Future record breakers
Are the infants of this day
They should be taught well
In order to lead the way

They should be taken forward
In the fear of God 
By the responsible one’s above them
Ye parents, guardians and lecture givers
Train them to keep of boozing 
Instruct them...

When did business ethics
find roots in science
rather than re-connecting
humane re-ligion?

Thereby exempting,
divorcing,
earning a merely fair
and acceptable free economic pass
to continue extraction
exploitation
to build corporate empires
divorced from religion's incorporated
GoldenRule win/win ethics,

Including
family fair play
of sacrificially co-redemptive moral values
on altars of messianic
bodhisattva sacred smoke
and self/other co-reflective mirrors

Meming little everyday issue...

Born on March 26th 1874 in San Francisco
Where the streets are filled with dining alfresco 
At age eleven his father passed 
Then relocated to Lawrence Mass.
From the hills and the pastures blowing free
His words ran so deep and scrupulously dreamy
In the 1900’s he began forward...

Yours is a horrendous bother
I decode one side, you obfuscate another!
I twist and turn, twist and turn again
Fingers engrossed around your parts, another twist
extirpates the other side! My enthusiasm refuses to wane.
I warp your shifting visage, weave the obliterated wrist,
Only succeeding to dislodge several faces,
I...

Our convergent joint
The rallying  point
Mecca to the Pastors and Sisters
Jerusalem to the “Alhajas and Alfas”
Refuge to the weak
Shield to the strong
Nowhere on campus like our building

Life made more lively
Added  life to the lifeless 
Ever enliven to light up a dead soul
Restore spirit to...

I seldom indulge in letter writing 
Because I consider it 
To be a cold and illusory 
Means of communication. 
I will only send someone a letter 
If I'm certain it's going to serve 
A definite functional purpose, 
Such as that which I'm 
Scrupulously concocting at...

The distinguished judge sat on the bench for many, many years.
He was highly esteemed and loved by his associates and his peers.
With great dignity he donned the robe of his honorable profession,
And with clarity and common sense made his rulings at each session.

The challenge of...

In the past I've treated New Year's resolutions with contempt and flout;

     Most of them were of little importance and quite lilliputian.

Therefore, this year I've made a resolution that I'll scrupulously carry out;

     I've made a resolution...

For my Professors Mary A. Schilling & Jean Cuvelier

Share with me the beauty of the pen, the smell device of paradoxical selection,
The inquisitive sense of hateful teachers; shared with me the major premise
Of the dogmatic repetition, the distance of space between illiterate and erudite;
The preparatory...

I remember how
clean his eyeglasses were.
He took care of himself.
and expected people to 
listen when he spoke.

.

With his black,
political, contrasty suit,
scrupulously laundered,
his face was red and
he took large steps.

.

I remember the honor
in his presence,
as if he had some
magical favors 
he could grant....

Love’s passionate angel plucks romance’s harp,
studies scrupulously, keeps arrows sharp,

covers strawberries with chocolate silk,
searches for sensations - creamy as milk.

Cupid primps rose cups, paints valentine red.
He ensures, each long stem dozen’s, pure bred.

Then he searches out auspicious jewels,
and threads them from silver and golden spools.

He...

I twist and turn, twist and turn again

fingers engrossed around your parts, another twist

Posthumous
I’ve seen death passing by,
looking through her glassy eyes,
silenced by her inward shrieks and dumb.
Escaping presence,
all the while stepping closer to clinch on.
Where the precipice submerges
failing you in flight. 
Shot with the last shot, 
there was to be downed.
In the spring of hope fading glitter, 
falling above wild...
