Barefoot on Boulders-Number 5
(Number 5)
Smiles rise over the ridge.
Courts creek, a childhood dream.
Commonsense, not even a smidge.
Barefoot on boulders, eyes agleam.
Staggering sight of matchstick bridge.

Dragonflies And Rolling Boulders
Frequently left with no logic
when wet with amorous magick;
Dragonflies and rolling boulders,
cohesive thought left in embers;
A soft touch in heavy silence
leads to an act of defiance;
Locked up with metallic handcuffs
you won’t hear me utter rebuffs;
To follow the heartbeat in me?
They may say it’s a bit crazy;
Arrested ‘cause I won’t comply,
I’ll plead the

Boulders
By George P. Lumayag
https://georgelumayag.weebly.com/
It's hard to move the boulders;
it's hard to roll them manually; and
it's hard to push them away from each other.
I just stay in between them
and climb on the top of the massive one.

White Boulders , Black Shackles
Old white liberal man,
going off on another white guilt rant.
Readily Bending over because of the wrinkled past.
but there's no magic iron to smooth a wounded land..
Always appeasing and promising forever freebies
is shallow and sneaky, void of heart and soul.
Quilting patches of color just to buy a few

Life Boulders
Stuck between a rock
And a few boulders
Who say’s life gets better
Or easier as we get older?
Life can be great
But it can also smolder.
You Can do it alone
Although it’s better with a shoulder.
Life can be good and rough.
That’s up to the beholder

Boulders
I find solace among the trees
It's a very quiet place to be
Away from human interaction
buried in the heart and soul of the convention
Boulders scattered underneath the trees
spanning over many centuries
I wonder how they got there
The ice age must have deposited them there
Rotten logs lay flat between them
repeating a favorite bible verse
Where the tree

Grains of Sand, Pretending To Be Boulders
Grains Of Sand, Pretending To Be Boulders
After winning, do try to be a real winner
your moment may make or break another.
Nobody lives in the glory their mind conjures
except those lost thinking in fantasy.
Starving people want more food to eat
not words and praise of your feats.
Think again, consider life is a mystery
the importance of you lives

Beneath the Boulders
Written January 17, 2015
I was born to the hunter
I was raised with the sheep
I was brought in with the soldiers
I was told not to fall asleep
I was told not to wonder
What lies on the otherside
Once I was a loner
Loitered around with the stoners
Who sought only to dream
But for the days when their dreams came true
Hand

Egyptian Boulders
Zulu drum
Egyptian people gather
Chant for freedom
Sesame seed music
Power to the soul
Amazing marketplace
Amazing fortress
Military gather power
Zulu drum
Mosques chant
Church goers pray
Lonely Wolf cries out
The Pyramids shake
Large question mark on the future
One thing can change they say
Egyptian boulders

The Snowy Cliffs With Bouffant Boulders
Even before the arrival of the first snows, so brilliantly candid,
we climbed mounts less dangerous than the Alps's;
and we proudly chalked it up to our experience.
Now the snowy cliffs with bouffant boulders,
have lost their captious and so beatific image,
and quite too often we got pinched by burdock,
distracted by the robins chattering on a coarse

That Roman Pile of Boulders!
THEY CAME LIKE THE CONQUERING HEROES OF THEIR HOLY CRUSADE.
BASTERDISING EVERY HEATHEN AS SOME SORT OF GODS MISTAKE.
CIVILISATION STUMBLED AGAINST THE WILD AND PAINTED CLANS,
SO THEIR WALL OF CONFRONTATION COULD NOT DEFEAT THE WILL OF MAN.
ON THIS LAND WHERE I WAS BORN STOOD ONLY CHIEFS OF COMMON CLANS.
THEN CAME THOSE KINGS OF SERVANT
