Waiting for the Third Day, A Muse Chronicle
Muse - Day 1, 2016
For years I had read
Not realizing what I too, had given…
I had given, just not sure what I received in return.
So, in these, my later years thinking on this...
I approached morning’s-day Muse
Fresh with the Sun.
From all I had become in the Sum of Days
Muse asked gently of me...
“Who are you?”
I

Chronicle Of Ends
The culminating azure ecstasy of the glistening autumn sky
fades away at last with the blizzard of the arctic blast.
As on the wings of winter the golden leaves fly
at the end of their verdant time on the lost canopy,
their rustling tune completes the music of my delight.
On the canvas of hazy horizon rainbow dreams gleam

Wildren Chronicle
There are tales of the Old Days
Of a time of trial and glory
So we gather around the fire as
The Old Ones tell their story
Wildren Wood may be dying.
For the last few weeks it seems
We, it’s children, are haunted by
Shrieks and moans and screams.
The invaders have returned
Ringing it with machines of awe
Slowly reducing its perimeter
Each

Chronicle of An Expected Rain
I have Already past 60
now it pleases me
bow to wisdom
of those who secure
that it will rain
and that will it deliver me
sweet memories from
the one I loved so much...
are memories
from 30 years ago
when in the green years
I threw myself to love !
I am glad to realize
that the rain turns,
even if she does not come together

Satan's Chronicle
Lucifer is his name,
Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty
Dazzled with brightness like a burnished gold
Holy and undefiled, he was first of the covering cherubs, precious and magnificent.
Stood beside the great creator..
Almighty God rested upon him..
Honored above the Heavenly host,
Not content with his position,
Disposition and dissatisfaction,
Clouded with envy

The Epitaph of An Abdicator
There sat in opulent xanadu, the
demagogue of empirical hedonism,
his granary once fuelled regal reign of epicureanism:
gregarious, restive, much-awaited successor of imperial dominion,
neurotic, obstinate, was the cynosure of cynicism.
The eldest child of Duke and Dutchess of York, erstwhile Prince of Wales,
the proclaimed young heir, stood far

The Office a Chronicle

the office partners just two
pens pencils nearly-new
clerking the lowest

reality soon shone thru'
down the cellar

The Inside Out Chronicle of Golgotha
Ummm...
.
Sometimes when I linger in between the absolutes,
I look toward Heaven for some kind of cue,
But it seems as if Heaven is reluctant to move.
I’m impatiently waiting not sure what to do.
Again it seems like I’m the only one in the room,
Who hears the hushed whispers
Of the unseen Truth.
.
The frenzied crowd cries out for blood,
And

Chronicle of Change
Time then had facile fluidity,
flowing like smooth autumn breeze,
touching the somber edges of indolent life.
You walked in a slow pace, gladly let me pass,
held my hands with passion for a long while,
waited to listen when and what I spoke.
Your tolerance showered cool rains of empathy
on my blazed mind in

All fear death blood sells
All God's goodness forgotten
