CONTEST: Put your best foot forward. JUDGED 4/14/24 Mother is ninety now, frail, and asleep much too often. This may be her last year; she wants to go home and be with God, but does not want to leave me. Go Mom, I'll be there by and by. ...

My days grow short My eyes grow weak Been a slave most of my life The thought of Freedom My knowledge in wisdom Blisters on my feet when I try the plantation retreat Beaten and clothes always torn Forced into intimacy woes Working the plantation fields under the hot sun It’s a wonder I am still living among Lord, look down and guide me Heaven is...

I run on a super busy beach, high up the summer Sun misbehaves; By and by pause to build sand castles, nearby is ice cream but I smell waves; Carefree I just play through every hour, Aye!! Seaweed stuck all over my skin; Fatefully fall asleep with a pail; Sea daze leaves a blistered burn again....

By and By
the way you walk, and talk is at the mercy of tides and shifting dunes the foibles, the characteristically odd ways of your individual life its mannerisms and behavioral peculiarities will fall away by and by and what will be left is this perfect alien species formed by your every dazzle and daze a translucency all shall recognize as themselves...

The Great By and By
THE GREAT BY AND BY I’m thrilled with a brilliant red sunset, I’ve marveled at lightning so bright, I’ve stood and I’ve watched falling snowflakes, Then I thought, “What a beautiful sight!” I’ve seen the spring landscape all blooming, I’ve watched as the autumn leaves fall, I’ve stood on a mountain’s high summit And looked at the things down there small. I’ve seen many...

Blue skies No fluffy clouds Fond sighs Mellow not loud By and by Such mystic sighs A sure cry Leaps high from high Rhymes brief Sheer paradox Old grief Out-of-the-box Line by line Words now encrypt Feelings brine Thoughts to decrypt Sense feel Unplug the gaps Work bills Query mind map Cry floods cry Mind magnet stretch High seeds sigh Sly words to match Plant seeds Let ideas bloom Feed need Urge and surge groom Dark night Shadows verge here No light Insidious spheres Dance deep daze Waltz...

By and By After While
My Grandmother would often sing, “By and By and we will understand after while” But that was always my Grandmother’s Faith style Yet my Grandmother would sing that very song in Church, but she herself knew the words and the church did utter a voice when my Grandmother sang that song By and By Live being every try Struggles that...

Dark is the night In faith's lost light Deep is the daze In this dark maze Sleep brings no rest In crazy fest Empty the feel In lusty thrills Gone far away Surreal end play Lost in lost tense Heavy lost sense Drifting with tides Of crested pride Sorry sad sights In loss of light Pride peoples form In murky norms Too late this brief Of gloomy grief The way is blocked By empty stock Endless the...

A burned blue flame one can only try to tame wild to rise and quick to die By and by, A deep green sea soft, a warm glass of tea quiet to end and quick to die By and by, A dark star sky to claim never set to any frame restless to start and quick to die By and by, A true bright tree gather around to...

Day by day I watch them as they pass by Growing shorter with each sunset The sun rises with daytime fading Before my eyes the lights gone to soon Night by night I notice them quickly come upon me Announcing the end of another day Thru the darkness all is still and quiet It feels like life has stopped In the nightime hours Time by time Take...

By and By
By and by the years have went. Ages fading into the golden sun set over time gone through and past us. As leaves die every fall so has our love. By and by the years are behind us now. Chances taken chances missed by and by our love has grown cold. By and by we now will just wait out those fading years....
