My land of tomorrow is a secure place
In the dreams I can visit sometimes
I’m looking to see your adorable face
My beloved, my soul, please advice
Is there a way to be with you
For the rest of my god given time
I’m sure that you know what to do
And somehow you can drop me a line
How to get to the place, where we can meet
Again and again, like we did before
I live on my side now, tell me wasn’t it
Envisaged by you, not so long ago..

Hate is on the screen and page, satan is seething in righteous inversion at this
This stage; of our age.' In paroxyms with contortiions Another abomination he parades, will you bow down to the
Statu-te? By now no doubt its been printed and lauded in
'The Age?' Who devoid of empathy.' Could have envisaged
This sad day? my heart is crying, my mind reels; and my eyes are sore, at this 'evil in disguise' this is an attack on human expression' on the right to err, and learn' it will take
Lattitude from our children.' By this no respect is ever to be earned, may its instigators face correction at the very hand of
Fate! for they are supping from a cauldron with the content
Denial and denigrate' where will children find the
Lattitude? Where can love dialate? Not in this airless tomb
I offer.' Its the lowest of dis-service to the state.' For the truth
There now is perjury.? And free expression made a lie.' Art
Is dead for the soul has fled ' this is not the way to true freedom.' It is just more gilded lies.!

First Law (Inertia): An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external force.
God is the ultimate power. Without His approval nothing happens.
He is the invisible external force.
I can do ...Only I can do.
The personality traits that we have in our youth
Life - the game of Chaturanga.
We’re the pawns in the game.
The Almighty is the box-to-box player.
Age takes away one’s power and charisma.
Gradually we realise...
‘Nothing moves without His order.’
He is the game changer, and the invisible external force.
God is in control.
When it is envisaged, we look to Him.
Eventually, our hearts fill with sublime joy.

Sit back and reflect on
Everything that's passed.
Passage of time
The clocks ticking fast.
Enjoy each moment
Making sweet memories.
Before it's to late,
Envisaged and embrace
Rejoicing life's mysteries.
For life is fleeting
All we have is the now.
Live life like a butterfly
Love everything you see
Sunset approaches follow your dream.

breathing life
into envisaged giants
our days were long
but calling
we finished standing
these stones of time
their face our face
our hands were bleeding
as we sank into the ground
left a future in our wake
diminished
we knew we had to do it
but to their colossus
we now rest in peace
to set all peace to come

I didn’t dream you into existence,
I didn’t dream you into my life,
I didn’t dream you’d ever love me,
I didn’t dream you’d become my wife.
For sometimes things can’t be envisaged,
Sometimes things can’t be foreseen,
For my dream hasn’t become my reality,
My reality has become my dream ...

The clock heralds midnight,
Yesterday has dimmed its light,
Its troubles chauffeured past,
Hopeful lights are cast.
Every day casts its dice.
I sojourn paying the price,
I'm awakened to a new day,
Grateful for the trestles that bore yesterday.
A mirror of myself,
The archives on my shelf,
Yesterday added a book,
I wonder as I look.
Who had seen yesterday’s lane?
Who had envisaged the course of its rain?
Dawn opened the door,
I was faced with an unyielding claw.

Independence panacea dashingly suggests
We purchase our palace hexagonal
Reoriented Nerida handed padlock, blessed
Fathoms red cross heiress of hospital
Imposter student enrols wild idea envisaged
Wider scope than she ever deserved
Ostentatious vistas brew broadwater blizzard
Novice nurse serves a nostrum absurd
Ultraviolet facet inferno disco jive diamond
Wears title queen of high hive divine
Fanciful feminine accepts novel assignment
Redhead remedy writes Chapter 119
Third of February
Thank you, dear old Doris

NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.

Your screams have been heard. Attention drawn
From all corners of earth. But like the parable of
Christ, it falls on rocky ground. Growth grounded.
The envisaged
Struggle,
Dissent,
All - risible.
Wait for sunlight if the moon doesn't
Provide enough light to see your path.
The sisyphean path of forlorn hassle.
Your seed
Of protest
Will end on
Rocky path.

Weapons of war launch,
Stirred up anger and violence,
Unyielding forces,
Relentless arbitration,
Perpetual peace envisaged.
