Monocrostic (Birthday of Lovely Joy Nava)
We do not know,
if we know
if we are
ample
or void...
that's why
we are in search
of answers,
ever... !
The crucial moment passed
Like the evening shadows gone;
While trying to remember well
The nights can’t erase days foregone.
I shelf my thoughts aside
And depend on positive rest;
Guilt shall not undress my heart
Though I’m scared and stressed.
Remorse was my crucial moment
Which warranted me all my fears;
And while I’m safely safe when asleep
The goodness of the pass clears.
All emotions known faced facts and guilt
Leaving a residue of doubts which I’ve built.
DOWN THE GHETTO
walking a street in the ghetto
rubbish can be seen everywhere
as two stray dogs mating
The death,
it's a pack of bones,
chalky crumbly...
Life is light at speed...
In this passage, we drop
here, the meat burden,
and we conduct only
The spirit...
To perform the final trip...
crucial is to accept
and live it... !
Love eternal,
follow bilateral.
A Crucial Balance
Take care of others...
but...find time
to include yourself.
Sandra M. Haight
Trump had preferred to eat a certain herb;
When he did caused him to hit crucial curb;
Heard horn honkers,
And he went bonkers;
Driving hard bargain many would disturb.
Jim Horn
The way industries ravish the earth,
poison the air and spoil
the waters
leads but to our destiny with gloom:
greed, beyond need, spawns
collective doom;
meanwhile, teetering along the line
between destruction and
creation
is the future of generations:
prosperity or
catastrophe!
The sun shines unexpectedly
And my eyes are still drowsy
I’ve gotta to find a way to fly
To another town but still under the same sky
Bitter days and coldly nights as always
I’ve gotta hold on for another day
My dream is high and it’s started to stray
But hope confides in me and told me to stay
I need to fasten up my safety belt
And I will blast to the outer space
This is the feeling that I felt
I need to find a way to seize the future
I hold this body of mine
It’s burning with the flame of hope
The entire dream I have in mind
This is the story I have to finish
Shady misery,
Stay away from my positive thought
I’ll take my boat and sailed away
I won’t let myself fall from grace
I won’t pretend when I am sad
I’m only human in the inside
There is no superman in this earth
We’re just people with life plans
I will wait to find the future
When I find it, I will grab it
Keep it inside my pocket and hold on to it
And the past will be the book of appreciation
Don’t look back if you’re afraid
Every life has a meaning for every soul
The night will fly by in time
And the sun shines your day again
My crucial supremacy
