After the Touch

7 lines /7syllables
______________


she was touched by a phantom

becoming a phantom too

both boarded coral carriage
 
wheels grate cobble streets in mist

opera seats were waiting
 
then to swirl on dancing floor

she relished escaping hours

PEARLY GATES HORSE AND CARRIAGE JOURNEY

Amazing Grace how sweet the sound
Harmony of Heaven
Spiritual tact
A Soul rose and soared far beyond the eyes to see
Beyond loving hearts
Pearly Gates a wait
Accompanied by a Driver, White Horse and Carriage
Pure and Secrete
Onward to everlasting life
Every horse Gallup establishing every step walked on Earth
The pain and anguished confronted
This was Ms. Evans hour to shine among
The many that passed before her
Three Doves flown in the sky of her life she lived, ‘PEACE, FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE”
Winds of her spirit
Concrete and devoted
Ms. Evans Legacy will live on, but Heaven will be her home in continued roam
Home at last
Stay strong family
Cry not
Just embrace in how my life encouraged and influenced you
No more pain and sickness
I have conquered
Let my life reflect in how we are supposed to live
Love one another
My tomorrow came at the right time
Too my husband, Joe Evans I leave behind, we will see each other again
It is not goodbye, but until we meet again
I have been welcomed in Heaven
I will be sitting high, but observing below
My journey is complete
My work is finished
Love you all
God bless now and forever.

The Carriage

The carriage. The carriage keeps us safe and warm. As long as theirs coal and fire the steam engine won’t stop.

Look, we can make an escape. The woods over there offer freedom, it’s a chance we must take!
The carriage keeps us safe and warm. No point in facing anything where chance is the norm.

Look, we can jump in the river. Swim to that small island and prepare to live free.
The carriage keeps us safe and warm. No point in facing anything where worry is the norm!

Look, a bridge to a road where we can roam free! A chance and worry we must face to live free.
The carriage keeps us safe and warm. No point in facing anything where risk is the norm!

Look so many open green fields. We must run into the sun until we find what we need!

The carriage…

In a Carriage, Side by Side

We won't always be this poor.
Walk with me through the door.
One day, we two will ride
In a carriage, side by side.

I've known you since I was five,
Since the day you were alive.
You were fine and pretty then.
You'll be at one-hundred ten.

One day, treasures you will have.
You won't always work this hard.
We will make it hand in hand
On this seven-acre land.

Sometimes, hardship, life will bring.
Through life's journey, we will sing,
When together we're in tune,
In December and in June.

Now our life was lived complete,
My dear Mary MacFleet.
Yesterday, we both died.
Now, an old man and woman ride...
In a carriage, side by side,
In a carriage, side by side.

The Flaming Garter

Like the king of Cordoba’s treasury
Reflected in a robber’s eye
A laden dish of memory
Spills into the summer night

From a moving carriage window
A flaming garter flies
With whoops and calls
And high-pitched trills
The vehicle turns aside

Then flames appear at the curtains
And smoke pours out the doors
As the party falls out laughing
Onto the meadow floor

The air is rich with jacaranda
The earth is green with dill
As the ladies and gentlemen
Of the court
Commence a Spanish quadrille

Arms are raised in laced brocade
The men they clap and sing
The ladies turn and stamp their feet
Let the festival begin!

Deaths Carriage

I pull back the curtains 
And out I look 
There lay a carriage, oh yes, I’m certain
Suddenly, I hear a knock at my door 
So the lock I unhook 
The door i open 
Standing there, a figure 
A creature of great lore 
Grinning, deceptively it hands me a paper and a pen 
It’s come for my soul I begin to figure 
“I’m not ready” I begin to plea 
Yet, from death there is no where to flee.

A Gilded Carriage

The adulterer and adulteress rode 
In a gilded carriage, while horses strode
Many looked on with pride
Others hated the ride  
Most of the world yawned in blasé mode  


I had some thoughts when they said he was the leader of the Church Of England.

Our Carriage Propeller

“It's minutest strand is not in our hands."


We traverse the day,
Our engines set in motion and fuelled by it, 
We retire to bed,
Like a parked vehicle,
All our mechanisms come to a halt,
Oblivious of anything else,
We switch to another world, 
A door is opened,
A part of us walks through it,
Our vehicles rev up by its fuel,
After a transient sojourn,
Our vehicles are set in
 motion for another adventure,
We move and race with time,
On and on,
Over and over,
The parts become weak,
The joints go out of place,
We repair, replace and reassemble,
Until it finally stops,
It breaks down completely,
It has fulfilled its purpose.

In Carriage Weaving Through Carnage

Am still reading "Team of Rivals"
by Doris Kearns Goodwin.

lincoln in carriage
while weaving through carnage
from wide plains to ridge

Each Wide plain and ridge
appeared to be battle sites.

Chastise and Have a Compromise

after many tries
when bother and then chastise
seeking compromise

Last Carriage

Two women fighting over last cart
                 Unsophisticated, brawling, stubborn,
   Short. Up rolls a knight, armor shining bright,
“Why d’ost thou fight til the death o’er singular
       shining carriage? Mine has wings...fly ‘way,
                                take thee for thy miscarriage.
i shall tarry for one of my own.”

Their heads, ready to roll, explode, quibbling,
             quizzical like two German Shepherds —
        ears antennae’d for radar, heads cocked
         ready to shoot, surprised, surrendering
to the prize — shoulders like majestic highs
       walk into the sunset reprise.

The sun sparkles like diamonds
On the suited knight, night’s been saved
        from a ridiculous fight.

What other maelstrom resides in the honey jar?

to get around
stop or shop
jump on
talk on the phone
its like a close marraige

Heaven-Blessed Carriage

Yesternight smiled the full moon so bright
  Twinkled myriad points of atmospheric light

Nary a trace of a cloud disturbed our sky-view
  Fast in each other's arms, lovers drifting through

Galaxies of splendor, wishing they'd never end or
  Perchance for the vast Cosmos to render

The Age of Aquarius' divine herald in 
  Star-studded, Heaven-blessed Carriage
    ~ Trumpeting this, our Angel-winged Marriage

Regret Rides In Upon a Ghostly Carriage

regret rides in upon a ghostly carriage
no, nothing within it's shell but darkness
which done to me that all is equal
the driver a bald lie of pain with memories
which road i no longer ride.

Village Maiden

I am a story among stories
Riddled with many victories;
I was written in a womb
Now trapped in the tomb.

My body has a voice
Blessed with poise;
Beauty held in alluring contour
That sends even gods on a sexual tour.

I am a black child dressed in grace
That reflects on my man’s face;
Reason leads me like a horse-drawn carriage
In my quest for marriage.

Inside the Carriage House

I have awoke love, from my slumber inside the carriage house                            so unkind my body longs for summer to awake and feel alive again                 true an old road now i travel with friends lost along the way                                      i search for the spirtually fit a man, a women, a sign.                                      with the uncertainty still there from the many failed before                               feel the fear i replace it with faith and embrace honor above all .
