He has a iridescent sheen
that looks metallic in mid flight
she is soft and she is gentle
and a healing to his night
he trembles when he's frightened
and his wings , like roving clouds
but she's strong, to elude the enemy
his descent entrapments , found
but her devotion is all her life
his return, devotion mate
her lips, they never lie
her words not found, in any hate
they bow their heads together
as if in lovers kiss
but be innocence and be cautious
for there's enemy destroyers, wish
So she draws him like a songbird
and fight she'll never do
as he floats he finds her kindness
her love, he always knew
'Look! your beautiful, my beloved
Look! your beautiful.
your eyes are those of .................doves '
The Song of Solomon 1. v:15

Ever Onward Into the Light and Beyond
Ever-Rising, The Ethereal Psalm
where Fire and Stars within Collide
a Paradise of Wisdom, a Flower Of Life
Ever-Inward Into realms Untouched
where the Souls Ablaze, In This I Trust
Ever-Propelled by the Solar Thrust
I Wind Drift like Stardust,
To Infinity I Must
The Everlasting Golden Pulse,
Ever-Upward The Spirits Cypher
Ever-Enduring, Ever-Righteous
Ever-Triumphant, Ever-Valiant
Forever I Untether Entrapments,
Soul Aura Gleaming On Galactic
Ever Press Forth by The Masters

In this day and time
Some of the older people wants
To be young again
Dressing, and acting like
Teens and young adults
Then there's the young people
Who's trying to be older
Dressing and acting like
Older adults, even putting
Up their age, be who you are
Don't fall into entrapments!

Mystical magical incantations
create charming patterns.
Incandescent scintillating omens
foretell future romance,
intriguing entrapments and temptations
impossible to be ignored.

Oh God,
The entanglements and complexities
Of our worldly earth
Are overwhelming.
Sometimes its beauty and goodness
Are strangled and hampered
By the webs of civilization.
But most of the time
Your splendor survives
And shines through strongly
Despite the barriers,
For those who want to see and feel
And appreciate.
Grant that we,
Caught in the traps of materialism,
May realize
That we too are rooted
On the earth,
Which was created by your love;
So that we may have the strength
To persevere, and grow and flourish
Despite the entrapments and burdens
Of our times,
To be able to share in and reflect
The beauty and peace in the world,
And the goodness and love
Of You.

Breezes brush through the window caressingly,
soft fanning wings powdering my skin;
night's black velvet pricked only by the porch light's glow.
Alone, I feel no fear. Gliding the dark, my twin
has turned gossamer wings toward my tiny light-
metamorphosed--a radiant night creature.
I breathlessly await like culminating event,
faith strengthened by this moth miracle of nature.
Heaven's windows are always flung wide open;
the porches blaze in one eternal, flaming light.
Souls released from dull cocoon entrapments
wing into endless day free of sin's blight.
Life's thin film is splitting, revealing the heart;
spirit wings unfurl, lift and upward start.

All that gathers are dreams and lust.
Yet we both recollect to dust.
Snarls and entrapments our enemies conceive.
Smiles and smirks; they all deceive.
Come onto me and never betray.
Speedily swift and never delay.
The long-lasting love, hidden is, within fortresses.
Seekers we are, dwelling within whimsical wildernesses.
Trust me, do you? Do you have faith?
I will never disappoint. Promise, I do; in comfort we bathe.
The doubters say we live an enchantment.
They criticize and condemn the lovers’ entailment.
Fly and soar we will.
Laugh and cry upon happiness’s hill.
Live and die together we shall,
Because you’re my only love and truest pal.

Co-written with my good friend Linda-Marie Bariana**
In the New Year with love and good cheer,
endear the great future plan.
To the knowledge of self, to embrace God’s great wealth,
the health of a total life span.
With new resolutions and lofty conclusions,
intrusions into life seem maligned.
With firm application, sincere supplication,
dedication to God’s roadway defined.
Obtaining levels higher with fervent desire,
aspire to create newer dreams.
Obtaining these notions with ardent emotions,
devotion to God’s perfect themes.
In the New Year this all becomes clear,
His now and great future plan.
To all who will hear, this plan becomes dear,
the total restoration of man.
No longer hiding within subtle entrapments of sin,
any moment begins this new life.
The more thoughts harmonize, the more we realize
freedom from the strongholds of strife.
There awaits so much more with God’s Treasures in store,
so much more not even known.
But what is desired can surely be acquired
in a life where we are His own.
