Costly Pure Honey On Earth

Jesus Christ  is a blaisser
He  is a provider 
Hosanna , Hallelujah!
Hallelujah , Ah - ah!
Amen 

Jesus Christ  is the head of the church 
He is pure honey that cost so much 
Hosanna , Hallelujah!
Hallelujah , Ah - ah!
Amen

Premium MemberA Costly Mistake

Single mistakes can be costly,
Surely a statement made falsely
Will get you time in the slammer
And create lots of loud clamor,
So never enter a false plea.

Costly Stones

costly stones

the mountain partly hid the lake 
was crystal clear and warm
they swam across to the river where its outlet was
we were looking for costly stones.
The lake got shallow, and they waded, but could
not find any pricey stones.
When they waded back, the lake had retracted back 
into the mountain, it was now a cave.
They picked

Costly Health

In the media, we are told
that lots of us, have too much guts

What we’re eating, is not the best
and what we’re drinking, makes us a pest

Its healthy food, that’s priced to the hilt
chop down the price, so we don’t feel the guilt

A Costly Price To Pay

A Costly Price To Pay

Black, negative thoughts cloud your mind
Consuming your heart, weights of all kind
Lost within yourself, self sorrow combined 
A costly price to pay, in your mind confined

Losing who you are, to appease the crowd
To be acceptable, to those whom are allowed 
And the ones not worthy, perhaps disavowed 
A costly price to

A Costly Adventure

He was a silver tongued devil from New Orleans
Carried a new deck of cards in a locked brief case
He came up to Texas in a pair of pressed jeans
With a stiff demeanor they called a poker face

He had big brown eyes and a set of pearly teeth
With a little blond mustache that hinted romance
There was

Costly World

Take it all take it from me 
All that this world should be
It isnt anywhere to be seen
Not even in my wildest dream
I have searched far and wide 
To find a home on the other side
But this life has cost too much
The gates of heaven I'll never touch

Costly

COSTLY

binding and blinding
pale and fluorescent
under white silk
parted
her skin seethes
fleshy and full
incandescent
like mist off sea
sticky and costly

something out of nowhere
 taut blue skin of water
an absentee
lost but free

he is hypnotized
by perfection as
she rolls her soles
against a cold
unyielding wall
curved feminine
legs that beg
for instant
answers



something out of nowhere
 taut blue skin of water
an absentee
lost but free

Costly Gems Worn By Dead

costly gems worn by dead 
monkey knows nothing of coconut
useless talking takes time
destinations are many of many 
many men many theories
leads conclusion to null 
real fruit is somewhere
tries to win only own game 
debate of laughers in screen
smell drifts of manifested words 
intelligent audiences test their innocence
they do not aware of them
smile folks walk in

A Costly Ring

On a night such as this
A besom seated, flighted Witch
The Maple near an Oak is blowing;
An emboldened Toad on root is croaking.

Halfway down the hillside lawn
The dusk enlightened flowers sulking
As breezes toss the moths about them
Close a Ring that slipped to soil.

A couple sits within this distance
Immune to superstitious nonsense;
Without a costly Ring he'd given,
He'll

Costly Reprieve

Costly Reprieve
by Jason Williams

A hypnotic ritual
Holding utensil to flame
It hurts to see the bubbling
But I’ve no one else to blame

I do not care for anyone
I only care for me
About the next fix to get
That's all that I can see

Cotton brushes against skin
The tourniquet stretches tight
My despair will soon be over
I’ll have peace all through the

Costly Tale- Make a Poem Contest

was a garden unloved not many flowers 
memories run deep and were buried there 
here children used to play in summer showers 
a cat stalked  looking absurd with an irritable stare

we caught this moggie stalking a tiny mouse
was hiding away in the iris bed
not caring one iota that a cat was about
he laid down

Costly Love

If every black sheep of the family
Became a billionaire
Then maybe others of that family
Would want then more to share.

It is so then they’ll testify,
“By God, we have not been unfair!”
If so by God then answer please,
“What did it cost to care?”
