Country Road
Country Road There's nothing like kicking back in a rocking chair. A day off drinking a beer. No worries in sight. My soul will soon take flight. Just clouds in the air. A cool breeze here and there. A country road away from the crowd. Peace and quiet, not too loud. Like a harp, strings...

Premium Member In Duty's Name - A Linking Pin Sonnet for Memorial Day
Duty calls from valleys deep and wide, Wide like hearts where brave resolve does bide. Bide the storms, through fire and endless rain, Rain of trials met with a calm refrain. Refrain from fear when darkness clouds the sky, Sky holds hope where eagles dare to fly. Fly with honor carved in steel and soul, Soul forged firm in sacrifice and role. Role...

Intent On Camping
Not your ordinary, average date, a country ramble, a stile a gate, and here's the pitch, “We won't go far, or stay up late.” Now he and she sitting silently, beside the flickering fire, innocently she believes, camping separately within tent, is where they will retire. But his fuse was lit when first they met, longingly he knows and yet, that's not what's on his mind, nor what...

Limericks Written In A Country Churchyard
There once was a sensitive vicar, who said, "I'm not one to bicker, but the peal of that bell, makes me feel quite unwell, and plays merry hell with my ticker." An incensed old soul by the spire, preaching incense-igniting to the choir, exclaimed, "There is but one catch, when striking a match, don't set your surplice on fire." A parson spoke from the nave, "Spend...

I’m not speaking someone’s words I don’t do somebody’s actions Neither the Commons, nor the Lords Represent my interactions Journalists can rend the air Formulating rather bluntly What I am, but I’m not there I don’t live in paper country In my country there are trees Gardens and some benches too Parks and lawns, and birds and bees People who say “I love you” Music, arts,...

Why I love you
You are like a restless butterfly but you pick the flowers that are only true. That's why I love you. You are so joyful but don't collect friends like a fool and hunger for your own celebration on the Facebook zoo. That's why I love you. You love your country and an artist of its art, you are so possessive to protect and always keep...

Premium Member O, my country, devoured by the shadows of beasts weaving through the roots of time
O, my country, devoured by the shadows of beasts weaving through the roots of time, On your white roads, leading to villages where sadness finds a home under roofs of silence, With the beggar's sack hanging from the weary shoulders of clouds, carrying rains of memories, Today, God wanders through you again, like a silent pilgrim seeking faith...

All I have to do to keep loving you is to play that game like you always do. You hide your love cause you were hurt before, so you measure our love like a game to score. You stood by my side till you took me for a ride I couldn't have imagined it so, You told me that...

Yowling and howling late at night Meeting of cats by the bright moonlight Wild yipping and one long scream Coyotes cornered something by a stream It might be a cat, it’s a sacrifice Excited yipping announcing it is nice The food chain is alive down my country road A long black rat snake just ate a toad...
