Love And The Gifts It Commands

Love wears no gold, nor seeks the crown of kings,
Yet holds dominion in a gentler way;
With whispered words and soft, unspoken things,
It takes the heart and bids it humbly to stay.

No wealth of gems or lavish silk from you is sought,
For love, in secret, makes its quiet own demands—
A stolen glance, a tender touch is

Premium MemberShe Commands the Clouds

She tames the sky
She commands the clouds
They get their orders from her
They do as she says

Does she rule by fear?
No
Does she rule by right?
No

Why do the clouds listen?
Because she is sassy, and confident.
And she is the first person to command them.
They think it is great.

Premium MemberLampstands

We in are in a time of darkness,
A season of sorrow and regret.
Like a great fish caught in a current 
Rife with unexpected, opposing tides.
All are tossed ever farther 
from lives all hoped to access. 

Striving against this typhoon of violence
Perhaps our hope is bereft?
As this devouring night surrounds, 
No egress to safely accessed.

Losing strength,

To Be A Poet, Oft Strong Commands Come At Night

Oh, gawd- comes raging middle of the night
This horrid current, rise up and now write
An electric jolt, firing through me bones
Of new fortress looming, huge granite stones
And that tingle surging from old waking soul
As pagan's carving of a totem pole
Words spilling out from a resistant heart
Pen

He Commands All Things

The heavens open up and the lord's spirit. 
Came down from heaven 
Riding upon majestic clouds 
Of fiery lightning bolts that showered the church
with glowing trails of shooting stars and streaks of comets
He then commanded the glowing rings of Saturn. 
to come down anointing the sacred icons 
with brightly shining halos 
He then commanded the

Longing's Commands a New Year's Poem

We'll; it's the new year on top of the clock
When everything's up there for grabs of the flock

That future's seem brighter when out of our hands
When the further we wonder means longing's commands

Breezing Tree Commands Tiny Creatures

Everyone come along for the shower.

            Let's dance together amidst the flower; 

    And devour Nature's power,

Whilst these tiny droplets descend the river.

Premium MemberGo Paint My Muse Commands

Loving my studio is not enough
I have to actually go over there and pick up a paintbrush
Reminding myself who I am
Today is the day, I say, halfheartedly.
Not ready yet. 
Sticking myself back into lah lah TV land
A world that never brings satisfaction of any kind
Yet here I sit hour upon hour
Decompressing and decomposing.
Go paint! My

The Truth Commands

Yes, I’m a Poet,
but I refuse to be conscripted

I refuse to be a victim,
my words made out of stone

I refuse to bleed my heart out,
on a page of blank simpatico

I refuse to give you weakness,
knowing strength you have disowned

Yes, I’m a Poet,
but my sword is sharp and pointed

My shield is scarred and colored
with the blood

Final Sunset Commands

I played out my string,
  I ran my race

My chaps are frayed,
  but spurs in place

Still one horse to ride,
  with saddle in hand

That last trail awaits,
