They take tiny steady steps,
Harmless little creatures,
Unperturbed in their countenance,
Peaceful in their gathering,
They hop flapping their wings,
Celebrating one another,
Making joyful felicitations,
Who will these amiable creatures harm?
Or who would want to do them any harm?
For they gladden the heart,
They bring sunshine to gloomy moments,
They soon take flight,
They transverse the sky.

The Unforetold Truth
The Truce unclaimed is yearning
The Halo surrounded is hatful
The treasure unfound is slothful
The ink unused is fading
The forces unchallenged are daring
The stakes untaken are dilapidating
The cross unbeard is rightful
The characteristics unfeatured are deriding
The Chances non-formed are regretful
What do all these culminate to produce?
The Unforetold Truth
The knowledge present in everyday felicitations and adventures reborn
The Unforetold truce present in the lie conquered and disseminated
Where there is strength in bold and overridden fear
With success in the wind.

Love, more than a once a year compliment
Remembered with other ember members at Valentine
When red reigns supreme to cement
Signals in Sentiment City all’s fine
Although a lover’s lilt longs for more
Than a red reference to dine and wine
Served with flourish in keeping with folklore
Kept alive over the centuries in a bid
To meld memories and joys galore
In minds married to a creed
With promises that raise expectations
But deliver little beneath a doctrine deed
Which longs for more than fancy felicitations
That once a year weave winds of creative commemorations.

My finger launched the dropped dews
In a dreamy flight and intense swiftness
At the receive of your arrival news.
The lines of your gait….lofty goodness
The scent of the white roses … pure richness.
Lost in the music of your sung passion
Such that I a pray for an everlasting immersion.
My eyes are sparkling with the brightness of love brews
My inner source nurtures a radical sickness.
The joint of the pulpit and felicitations of the pews.
Break me and break me, this love retains its fearlessness
Try harder, I would not bulge even at your strange fairness.
Let me drown in this river-battled love mission
For I care for you beyond apprehension.
For your feelings I had had enough rues
Regretful not my betrothed you; my hearty faithfulness
Search it not for invincible are the initiating clues.
My search for you is for the wanted oneness
Of our bond in a deep depth of openness.
Soothe my pains and satisfy my poor tension
Let this emptiness revive at your angelic unction.

Easter felicitations to everybody
Calvary greetings to the brethren
Greetings from him who journeyed to the cross
Greetings from him whose blood was shed
Calvary greetings from the throne of grace.
The blood of the lamb who was sacrificed
The blood of him who is spotless of sins
An atonement for the sins of all mankind
For our sake he went to the tree on Calvary
For our salvation he was crucified on the cross.
We celebrate his death and resurrection
By his death our sins were washed away
By his resurrection eternal life is given
He so loved the world that he gave his life
For this he came down from his throne.
He was reproached and humiliated though Innocent
He was forsaken to the cross by his own
Nails piercing his hands and feet to the cross
In his pains he was cajoled and ridiculed
With passion and love he bore a shameful death.
His bodily temple destroyed and he was buried
Death he defeated and rose after three days
He ascended into heaven and sent us a comforter
The risen Christ is alive yes Christ lives forever
At Easter we rejoice and commemorate his Victory.

Soft and silken belly fur
Trembling rumble steady purr
Curled up cuddled hugging heat
Stretching clutching kneading feet
Hunger fed relaxed content
Deep in satisfaction spent
Feline felicitations vent
I fondle her with envy
