Delight of doubting
O Doubt, thou hast given me so much joy,
That doubting has been my second nature,
Besides my life’s heaven-sent bliss and buoy,
Doubtless never goes even my prayer.
Had I clues to all questions that arose,
I’d have died under its heavy burden
O to have gone captive to self-made woes,
A slave with choice, joy of freedom nor fun.
Come

Doubting Thomas luxuriates under Dylanesque milkweed
Doubting Thomas luxuriates under Dylanesque milkweed
made fibrous threads...constituting heavy blanket
(crocheted by the missus)
on a cool Autumn like morning...
to stave off experiencing getting
chilblains, goosebumps,
or subjected to the blast of cold air
wafting thru the opened bedroom window
on a frosty early August morning
about a month before official start of Autumn.
Quite refreshing the brisk temperatures
courtesy a cold front
that allows,

Doubting thomas doth hanker to live in or share
Doubting thomas doth hanker to live in (or share)...
a house without gossips nor gonifs with the missus
Maybe a pair of stray eyes
will alight on my post
might subsequently manifest destiny
as a positive force
to help me secure
a moderately roomy dwelling place
whereby we hang figurative hats
(the writer of these words,
and his partner in rhyme - ha),
would feel ever

Numb
Sensing the death of something
That once brought more life than
The heartbeat or breath, faith
In the beautiful and intimate places
Where light kisses away the darkness
And music replaces the most horrible
Dread with a feeling so blessed,
So inspiring it rests amid the seas of
Tranquil revelations, soothing – comforting
As grace, and nearly as amazing
Ringing in the ears,

Pouting and Doubting Won'T Help
I tried not to pout about the past
I cried out so many tears and they run dry so fast
I tried not to be very, very sensitive like what you said
I flied so many mountains and swam oceans to get here, I could’ve been dead
With so much dread in my head
You think I’m so bipolar

Never Doubting Love
Life is for the living
giving it our best
and sometimes less is
better: a mouthful, a
tree not fell, an extra
wife/husband
but hearts should give
their all, never doubting
tributaries of love
though often ponds on earth
are oceans up above

To a Doubting Applicant
First humbly comply,
An effort making to apply,
Self assuring that they would reply:
That God shall your needs supply,
Your forms to shorter routes ply.
Yes, first boldly apply
And you’ve succeeded to imply
That you shall never away fly
When “Dear Sir” decides to be sly…
The Doubting Christian Applicant
Sometimes forgets he is a communicant.

Ode To Broker
I grope gossips
and chamois if chargrin
and sense like there is forlorn
and there is gruff and chide
oh! if love be a centre
of human life and existence
why call for cracks and grudges?
why profane like a night waves?
can it behold to make excuses?
to haunt and hallow ever?
what contagion is a nightmare contempt?
what conspiracy and blue contest?
what went wrong

Doubting Thomas
DOUBTING THOMAS
Thomas Doubting did what Doubting Thomas’s do
He doubted he existed, he doubted if he was true
“I am! Therefore, I doubt,” said our doubting Tom
I doubt I had any parents, a dad or loving mom
He doubted all there was to doubt, he even doubted doubt
He doubted he was living life; he was a doubt devout
He

Doubting Thomas' Dismal Day Dilemma
On this morning Thomas awoke
Ready to take on a forecast predicting he would get soaked
Still doubting thinking meteorology was a joke
Headed outside
Winds blowing no lie
Running back under covers
Twenty four hours washed out waiting for another
Throughout the rainy day
Wondering if everything was okay
“I have nothing to say”

Doubting Thomas Visits the Weatherman Stand
Thomas was a doubter
Not a pouter
Day was bright
Sunny no clouds in sight
God’s gift warm and temperatures just right
But there was Danny the weatherman
Predicting things behind a five and dime stand
“There is something big headed our way
Filled with high winds I must say
Lightning and thunder
Will be the

The doubt keeps on anchoring in my ears.
It's like the words that draws as to doing our outmost best has now formed a bond between doubt and itself.
I can't help it,I live in fear that people will stop living.
Walk away from us doubt!!!
Doubt you won't stop us from going out
