706.

Veneration to Mary:
She Who Bows Down to God in Worship



Oh Mary, servant of Allah

She Who Bows Down to God in Worship – the Raki'ah

God had seen her humble submission

She also has God's recognition



Oh Mary – the Bowing One – the Raki'ah

Our honor & adoration to you, Ave Maria

Praise God for the worship of the Blessed Virgin Mary

We venerate Mama Mary, Worshipful is She.



Amen.

Bows And Arrows

If Harold had spied with his little eye
the arrow flying his way
at the Battle of Hastings in 1066
the English may have won the day
but the French bastard William the Norman
prevailed and won the upper hand
to conquer the last Anglo-Saxon king
of this green and pleasant land
when King Henry V led his army of archers from Wales
at the Battle of Agincourt in 1415
in revenge the English to the French did bid 'Adieu'
which began the tales
longbowmen were first to finger the V-sign 'pluck yew'
but it's merely a myth it's not true

Premium Member As Winter Bows to Spring

Frigid days are disappearing
Gloomy graphite skies are clearing
Robins are sighted on the wing
   As Winter bows his head to Spring

Leaves appear on maples and oaks
There's no need for warm woolen cloaks
Balmy weather, Nature will bring
   As Winter bows his head to Spring

Crocus blooms rise above the ground
Cricket chirps are a welcome sound
It is the season of birthing
   As Winter bows his head to Spring

Bees will start to harvest nectar
Task of a pollen collector
Beware the needle of their sting
   As Winter bows his head to Spring


My Son

some laypersons deceive only
useless poetry prose.

I own him as my son who knows
rhyme in life he goes

who loves sis and bro and parent.
and before Him bows

who is always caring for those
who live like a rose

The Happy Bows Turned Fake

Always I passed beside the bows
But never I personally taste its pain
Successfully once I entered its realm
Getting the hope of blissful  heaven .
Ah ! What a happy life you and me
Thinking never I will leave the bows
But you betrayed being other spouse
And I know now the pains of happy bows .
The nature started to sing when we united
Now I see them weeping days and nights
When I passed by and painfully observed
And now never the bows sing as you part .
Once you yet entered there after the parting
To make the bows clam and bliss with
Your pretended weep that the bows believe
But not so long the the bows surmised
The betrayed your  weeping was fake always .
When I at first dare not to entered the bows
To have the pains of their taste to the least
But now I have become the Friend of
The fake bows for Every days having no rest . 
Like the short clothed nature I surmise
You and I became united for a few days
For the peeping bows' happiness to taste
But the bows happiness turned fake Always .

Premium Member The Balcony Bows

The balcony bows like a bridge unmaintained.
Song birds are silent, their hearts uninspired.
Grape vines hunker down as if never trained.
Scarlet petals fall, their fragrance expired.

Shattered is the night sky like sharp glass shards.
Sparks, once in our eyes, liquify the ground.
Minstrels are mute in abandoned courtyards.
Pitter-patter is the refraining sound.

Masquerade faces can no longer hide
from the truth that beauty departs with death.
A dagger divides a young groom and bride;
lamenting cries consume their final breath.

The script is flipped over like clover in mud.
Misconstrued love poisons life-giving blood.

Premium Member Christmas In July

Saint Monica's Mission

Tots rushing and jostling, reaching for gifts
Three hundred and two presents we did carry 
We drove to the shore, used pallet jack lifts
Children gathered about cheerful and merry
Everywhere bows, ribbons, bright wrapping paper!
Sandcastles decked with candy cane ornaments 
Boys and girls enjoying this wild zany caper
Eggnog, carols, and the smell of peppermints
A dapper Santa in his swimsuit chuckling, ho, ho, ho
Grab your boogie boards he bellows, time for a swim
We all shout out, hey Saint Nick, go man go!
Some of the crew followed Santa and joined him
Goodwill and cheer were now within reach 
With broad grins, ringing bells, kids thanked us guys
These unfortunates grew joyful this day at the beach                               
As did Saint Monica's who brought Christmas in July!

Premium Member Dewdrops Draw Bows

The world globes itself in a drop of dew.
~ By Ralph Waldo Emerson 

***********************

Pure dazzling spindly dawn prayers,
Callow leaves shedding dews,
The glow of the sun touched her tears,
Sunrays caressed the tangled pears,
With sparkling carpet of dew views,
Cast on spider web hues. 

Dewdrops weaved as crowns from heaven,
Gleam as glimpse of the dream,
Show of sleek steam stems the garden,
Till they pinch the bloom of lemon,
Dawn dewdrops have a sturdy seem,
without tricks or prime scheme.

Tears are wincing as we sit here,
We pray and wish on sky,
Count blissful glee touching dew tear,
Rain bears the love of those we cheer,
Deft dewdrops are prized, so to say,
From soul, tears fall today. 

In full bloom, rainclouds form, and burst
God's fey stir each dripping,
rain feeds life buds leaf and eas' thirst,
On the nigh roar, sense feeling first,
Let dewdrops soothe your heart aching,
Stream reaches our meaning.

Premium Member Spring Bows To Summer

spring bows to summer

spring bows to summer
 long nights give way to daylight ~
  footprints on the sand

cold days nod to warmth
 days comes early then leave late ~
  shooting star pizzazz

frost curtseys to dew
 empty fields burst with blossoms ~
  bird songs fill the dawn

tree buds smile with leaves
 barren limbs expand with life ~
  forest greenness thrives

moonlight swaddles night 
  moon shadows dance in rondeaus ~
  summer bows to spring

Winter Bows to Spring

In the midst of sullen cold
 pink cherry blossoms burst open as winter bows to spring ~
 yellow daffodils spring up from frozen icicles ~
 white snowdrops vault through soils of howling storms ~
 gold jasmina scampers up fences between winter's wildness ~
 purple crocus stand tall midst blazing blizzards ~
 rosy tulips push up past untamed storms ~
 lavender glory-of-the-snows awakens in shivering snow ~
 purple daphne spreads perfume to hoary frost  ~
Heralds and harbingers of spring in the midst of winter

A Legacy for Life 1

With noiseless hammer
the Master Carpenter builds
our earthly home.
Our labor there is useless -
we do not rest on His Word.
~~~
With hallowed armor
the Master Sentry patrols
the place where we dwell
Foremost, our nation’s defense
demands a grasp of His Sword.
~~~
With joy, celebrate
the Master Archer’s blessing
of many children.
We do well to set their aim
as straight arrows for His bow.

Psalm 127

Premium Member Halloween Bows At Feline's Meow

Halloween Meow
Pert black feline bosoms blossom
Stepping its paws nonchalantly
Along the length of the gauntly
Elder-oak; towards mocking owl.

With a sullen pout the sun goes down
Until the twilight hours of dawn.
Black lace caresses the lustrous,
Beguiling Harvest Moon's wondrous
Magical mystique. Leaves glitter
In a spell trance and dance in the
Moonlight whilst an occasional
Owl loudly sings in darkness plight.

The feline extends low and rigid,
Back and forth flicking tail as the
Night bows at the brooding shadows
Of witching hour; whilst its desires
Quench, lips lick forbidding entry
For the whiskered grey country mouse.

Quivering with fear falling, falling, falling, 
The moon slowly swallowed up by the sun.
Feline curls its tail around his legs ,
Up into a ball and falls asleep.

Premium Member Spring Bows To Summer

Our spring is bowing now to summer days 
as it matured from buds, now fully bloomed;
from wispy greens, trees formed a denser phase.  
Our spring is bowing now to summer days; 
the sun hangs low, aglow with brighter rays. 
We breathe warm summer air, sweetly perfumed;
our spring is bowing now to summer days,
as it matured from buds- now fully bloomed. 

From wispy greens, trees formed a denser phase;
our spring is bowing now to summer days.
The sun hangs low, aglow with brighter rays;
we breathe warm summer air, sweetly perfumed,
as it matured from buds- now fully bloomed- 
from rebirth to full blossoming, was groomed.
