Best Ye Poems

I eat upon a creaky table
   and think in quiet realms,
   sleep I will on some luminous cloud,
   wonder where the seam of my labors
   stitched what I have found;
I oft muse aloud the folly of the...

Cry ye fallen angels low your heads lay
Chasing sins of heartache with each new passing day
Angels decending,bring from above,
Echoes of mercy,whispers of love

Low you have fallen,dim shines your light
Decending to earth your wings burning in flight
Whispers of love shall be heard no more
Mercy but an...

Oh Ye Poets, Weep Not!
(Apropos When Silence Is Betrayal)

To write of peace, love and beauty,
Would be what others think should be
The poets’ only duty;
Albeit, what we write, is like that of the dove;
Peace and love rendered from up high—Soaring
Within the oneness from God above—
Within the...

You will find quicksand
And underneath that its just cold...

Minerva’s child addressed Lycaons son;
“we owl and wolf are truly one”,
for air and earth guardians we be.
I come my brother from the trees,
to meet with you upon this hour,
for Gaia says she will empower
us for guarding wood and bower;
we are her chosen ones.

We’ll spread the...

Ye Olde Classoom Days


Let us take a cruise to the great past.
Hold tight, it won't be an easy task.
Look here, pencils and erasers, 
and books to hold, again!
Classrooms, no 'putters,
Loose leaf paper,
New crayons,
Rulers,

Dare ye!  Dare ye!


Dare ye unlock the tomb
release the musty words of fear
unleash the vitriol of anger
upon the rusted lockset

Freedom does not free one
from the mind’s dungeon
nor sweeten the stench
of clutched bitterness

Dare ye step away
deny the bindings power
to entrap us as we flee
the burden...

You! – Put the gun down!!!
Take it away from your head
Erase the thought from your mind
Overcome that worried state of mind
Get on your knees and raise your head
Call on God for help and salvation
Build up your faith and your strength
Seek help from the tip of...

Praise ye the Lord, all His people;
Sing songs of praise to Him on high;
Shout to make the earth tremble;
Grow wings and start to fly.

Praise ye the Lord, all his children;
Sing songs of worship to His Name;
Shout praise from the tops of every mountain;
Grow spiritually to...

A Partridge perched upon a tree
entices him to throw something!
When songbirds sing and flap their wings  
two turtle doves, cause headache pain.
Those mocking words, thread-worn with wear.
 remind him of the dollars spent.
Defeat caves in, ... the thought of debt!

He bends his head to...

Once upon a time, I believed that earthly men held felicity keys
Myriad of joy one special someone would woo me to rely on
But soft whispers serendipitous of grace, I heard with ease
Steep in thought, I surely had reached zenith of my reflections.

At times I lived...

Welcome to the Hogs head
The local ye olde pub
The ale tastes like urine
And there's maggots 
In the grub.

There's straw on the floor
A pee bucket by the door
And rats scurry in groups of ten or more.

The busty wenches serve the ale
And over the centuries
There's been spoken
Many...

Roses is red; a dollar are green.
Dough wuz the grandest thang Bubba'd done seen.
He had a bad wreck and ruptured his spleen.
His surgery wuz in a room that tweren't clean!
He paid Doc with roses, and Doc got real mean.

So Bubba sent dough--biscuits in a can.
Doc...
