For Two Timing Husbands
How many tears must fall from brown eyes before I lay me down to sleep.
Where hurtful dreams of betrayal and lies hide in shadows they creep.

How long did you think you could go around cheating and not be found out.
With all your two dollar whores...

Divine Timing
Come now and follow me into the depths of my apathy
You might have to burn me but somehow I think I could die happily

The man that you programmed got viruses like a computer
Why is the life that you gave me somewhere in the future

I break...

I opened the old broken gate,
And strolled up the overgrown garden path,
It was the end of winter, still chilly
My car had broken down; I do not have a mobile phone.
So I was hoping the owner of the little cottage
would have a phone that I could...

Bad Timing
They say timing is everything and baby is ours ever wrong,
But I'll do what I have always done and pretend to be strong.
My heart just doesn't understand this isn't meant to be,
Cause when we talk it's pure bliss, like you were put on earth for...

Premium Member It Is All About Timing
The sun is playing games
Teasing for a minute or two
Between mountains swathed in gray clouds
Briefly shining on the wet pavement
Not long enough to warm the air
Like grasping for a dream, not quite reaching it
As the light fades again 
The wind whistles stories in the trees
Making...

Timing Is Everything
To balance on a bike

you've gotta keep moving

but

 

since we can't

always move

 

our lives will improve

if we learn just when

it's time time time

to put a foot down

 

to keep

from falling

and breakin

our crown

 

wise is the way to flow

and forward

is the way

to go

in

this place

called the space...

The fleeting moments
was probably in preparation
for today
where you have been a constant thread
mixing with the chaos
to bring the calm
I never thought I would need - 
in your own style
digging for the things that made me unhappy
unravel the thoughts I was too afraid
to actually give a...

GODS TIMING

 IN HIS TIMING  HIS WILL  AND HIS WAY

The day the hour and timing unknown
Mistaking we see His patience as absence
When in truth it is perfect and constant
The moment faultless— as manifestations are shown

IN HIS TIMING HIS WILL AND HIS WAY

Overlooking the...

Premium Member Hopefully Good Timing
Hope is not the positive outcome flower of spiritual faith and conviction,
says political philosopher Vaclav Havel,
nor is despair rooted in WinWin CoMessianic meaning and purpose and values,
eternal promise of future fertility 
of omnipotent Yang Bodhisattva Empowering
healthy wealth, 
natural-spiritual interior landscapes of abundant health
within exterior ecosystemic...

Timing
My friend in Vermont
says she feel responsible
for the lack of foliage--
leaves so tardy to turn
for the busloads of tourists

who come for fall glory.
Same old story: we take
to ourselves Mother Nature's
abstinence which isn't hers, but ours, 
the fruition of emission and 

those blindfolded to the golden...

Perfect Timing
Hurriedly through the night it came
Blanketing the ground in white
A storm of raging wind and snow
Late one Christmas Eve night

It came to us with little warning
A blizzard of blinding white
While families bowed their heads
Giving thanks for the birth of Christ

The winds did howl like a...

Tarnished Through Timing
Tarnishing through timing
Three times trustingly
Triple traps tripping too
Trounced twice tingling 
Telepathically trudging 
Teaming tremendous tasks
Tell Timmy to take tally 
Tarnished Through Timing...

Timing
Tidal breathing lunar pull ocean
Heaving  monthly passion waves.
Measures of timing in surely repelling  
Slow steady repeating gravity law
Winds of tomorrow and yesterday's keening
Fill canvas dreams as  keels argue sorely
Rippling and driving in moments of yaw
Time tied in tidal moon fluctuation
Swinging and tolling...

It's All In the Timing
quatrain

Clearly put - the star was up to no good.
Musicians have an innate sense of time. 
The guests, notwithstanding, all understood
their host - a conductor well-past his prime.

Novice performers, the host chose just three
for the opening event of the night.
His niece, as it happened, was...
