Prayers Uttered and Hours Missing You, Ancient Doubles
Ancient Doubles
Prayers Uttered And Hours Missing You,
Ancient Doubles
Sing, sing of the sadness and lonely hour
Of cold rain and its shivering shower
Empty bed and those nights forever lost
Dawn's aches, sprinkles of glittering frost.
Prayers uttered and hours missing you.
Your soft laugh, your bright smile, all that you do.
Sing, sing of love's inspiration given
Our times, our love of

Beauty Doubles
See beauty! hosts and guests double beauty.
They double beauty with their gorgeous hue;
How so serene, so tranquil this scene to see,
Green when doubly mixed with white and blue.

Aphrodite, princess of my romantic dreams
burning flames to my heart's inner desires
your beauty gifted, a poetic soul redeems
goddess of love, true love that never tires.
Underneath moon's golden rays and heavenly nights
we meet, in a dreamland made just for two
your vision bringing forth love's most

( Dark Doubles Tribute To Poetic Those Gifts Given By Raven And Master Poe )
(1.)
Under Bright Bloody-Red Midnight Moon, Raven Plays
Yes, those horrific screams, came from below
those frosty chills, born from eerie glow
echoes bouncing off tall bloody-red walls
terror and fear from Raven's midnight calls!
Hold tight, darkness plays on this evil night.
Hidden out of sight, beasts

What of Humanity, Life and Happiness Lost, Sonnet Doubles
Sonnet doubles, a look at this dark world...RJL
(1.)
What Of Humanity, Life And Happiness Lost
Dark spirit, sad heart battling against mortal mind
sad breath of warfare and its slashing bloody blades
aftermath, in death's red-gore, truth hard to find
and those so slain, sad march in Hades' ghost parades!
What of Humanity, Life and Happiness lost
gleaming bright dawns millions will

Within Stone, Writhing Silently To Step On Out, Sonnet Doubles
(1.)
Deep Within Woes Of Love's First Dying Breath
Lost, I am not there, you can not reach me
woe, dark and naked- all life is not fair
tho' heavy blows hurt, they do not teach me
nor my rebellion prove I do not care.
What cost, does battling iron hard life gain
woe, will not victory's breath life thus save
man's heart

Rhyming Doubles On My Muse's Stern Command
Rhyming Doubles On My Muse's Stern Command
He who Lives, to green woods explore
and bathe in glowing moonlit streams
shall find his Love, begging for more
than pale ghosts in late midnight dreams!
She who his hot passion bestirs
in its fires, warms her eager heart
asks not for gold, diamonds or furs
instead, he a sweeter path chart!
He that her hand

Let Truth Burn Away Your Deceptive Cloak, Sonnet Doubles
Sonnet Doubles:
First sonnet
Let Truth Burn Away Your Deceptive Cloak
Let truth burn away your deceptive cloak
lower vanity's shield, go have a smoke,
even if, a diamond, in love's gold crown
life shows greater rise, after falling down!
In vanity's false, self-proclaimed state
live many victims of their own dark hate,
darkness, its power holds so many keys
to locks and chains, stopping

What Great Love, Our Memory Shall Remain
What is left when I am buried and dust
ancient grave upon which a white-stone rests
vanished shades of a future we did trust
as if that one great wave would never crest!
What great love or memory shall remain
when deepest of sleep, centuries accrue
will it matter wealth, worthless earthly gain
as paying of

Twelve Doubles
A guy ran into my Vegas bar, seemed to be in quite a panic.
When he ordered twelve doubles of my finest whiskey,
I thought, “Who orders twelve doubles? This guy must be manic."
Now, in Las Vegas, “doubles of your very best” are never cheap,
Twenty bucks and more in bars all over town.
Get a little crazy and
