Best Vault Poems

Peonies plum and white
on the table of grace
at nigh sundown's scarlet;
greet the hour with fragrance
as dusk becomes starlit.

Peonies plum and white
bring joy to the evening
of gold tinged memory,
from the gemmed purple vault
of old time's treasury.

Peonies plum and white
from the sunlit glory
of peach, satin breezes;
frills in...

Have you had thoughts within your mind that weighed like a brick
Kept deep within your soul and burdensome from becoming so thick
Nothing else will ever compare to the prodigious magnitude of it
Keeping them trapped within your vault that you have constructed...

The sphinx holds secrets, 
meant to remain secret.  
Ancient secrets, alchemy, 
are not meant for uneducated minds.

Those ignorant of this ancient lifestyle,
must never know the secrets.
Modern minds are incapable of controlling, 
modern technology; 
ignorance and overconfidence, 
can destroy universes; 
such has been, too many...

My mind is euphoric from scenes historic
Assyrian chariots innovative wheels bristling Mesopotamian plains
Paring the ranks of each, dated infantry formation
In Greece, anesthetizing anvil of the Dorian invasion
Glorious bronze relics supplanted by cheaper iron distillation
Persian armies: Greek hoplites, Scythian archers; mercenary aggrandization
Shrinking rebel hordes in Asia...

Olympic stuff ain’t easy
I’ve false started many times

At the traffic lights
At meal times
Conversations in the office lounge area
And other events I’d rather not mention

Alright go on then
Let me fill you in

At McDonald’s
At the flipping birds

At peristerophobia
At the park

Pole vaulting is not a dangerous sport
But the...

Memories fade

Not vanish

Kept locked in the depth 

Of our minds vault!...

THE VAULT OF HEAVENS


Under 
The vault of the glorious heavens
I stood,
Admiring creation’s incomparable 
Grandeur, 
Insignificant, in truth, I felt in
Comparison
Till Reason’s, I opened the
Door!

When l look back on my life
The moments l tend to remember
Are ones of pure unconditional kindness
So pure and tender

Locked away in my hearts vault 
Available, safe and sound
When feeling disappointed or disillusioned
I open that vault…..restoring my faith abound

A
Vault
In the
Attic holds
Photos and keepsakes
Treasured as a golden nugget
Holding the far memories that persist over time
Yearning secretly that a time machine would exist to bring back the past left behind

I close my eyes and begin to drift away to a place unlike any other
The memories flash by one after another
There's me and my little brother spending time with our mother
The images so vivid and full of color
Thoughts that were left under dust cover
Like that...

Lord I'm happy and I'm smiling and It's all Your fault.
You let me have a look inside Your endless vault.
I saw so much love and goodness in there
and I want to thank you Lord for giving me a share.

I was running amuck all over town.
Sucked...

They do not vanish

It is our fault we left the door 
Open to the vault.  Are we going to 
Wait for more to happen before 
We take a captain?
Will we use bait or go in and
Incinerate?
We should not wait too long
Otherwise, it will be
To late to change...

I sat, uninspired, in my condo. 
When on TV, no routine John Doe 
Flew above a balloon 
And then over the moon, 
That amazing pole vaulter, Mondo....

To have a holiday named for you,
you must be greatest we ever knew.
You must be the bestest of the best - 
one who eclipses all the rest.
Some say, when all is said and done,
no one beats George Washington.
Others lift their voices in praise to sing
of...
