The Firsts In the Book of Genesis

Satan: Recorded First Liar,
His lies like Wings A Good Flier;
God’s Reaction: The First Anger 
That put Poor Adam in danger,
Garden of Eden First Venue,
Four Rivers in its Avenue;
Feet- Deprived Snake First Punishment, 
Fulfilling God’s Wished Commandment 
The Whole Episode: Sad Drama,
Much stronger than Shakespeare’s Grammar… 

Adam’s Fig Leaves for Loins First Cloth:
A Nice Cook could

A Life of Firsts and Lasts
David J Walker

Every second 
	A second later
Every second 
	Another day gone
Everyday 
wasted on water
	Every night 
Stripped of light
A waste of 
Wine and song

Every first 
	follows another
every verse 
	In past
Winters frost 
	Will count the cost
Of every calendar 
         Cast

Premium MemberChicago Firsts

In 1967, fresh out of high school at seventeen, I boarded a northbound bus to the metropolis of the mid-west. After arriving in Chicago, while waiting to be picked up by a family member, I met my first con-artist who ripped me off for ten dollars. That's the way I was welcomed to Chicago. Chicago

Everything Is Firsts

Cant remember the first time
i kissed her
because i never stopped
Cant forget her face
The trace never leaves
its place
With her frame underneath
my fingertips
i finally felt touch
Time has retired
Fire has no thirst
and everything is firsts

Firsts

each novelty 
a penny in a jar 
adding up 
to who we now are

even when it’s full 
you cannot start new 
fresh experiences 
start becoming few 

again in our head 
they play and they play 
what can’t be lost 
we wish would go away 

so we settle 
to forget the riveting firsts 
doing everything we can 
to numb our hopeless thirsts

Premium MemberA Trip of Firsts and a Trip of Lasts

Las Vegas. We will have a blast! Have your husband get us tickets.
My husband got them, encouraged me greatly.
All was terrific.
Las Vegas never sleeps.

But we did.
With blinking lights, car horns, and a constant drone
Outside the windows.
So we barely slept.

We went to some shows.
The Beatles "love" show was awesome.
David Copperfield's magic show still has me amazed.
I

Firsts

Grief comes,settles in the veins
And then come the firsts
Needling it to rise and erupt
Crash and clamor

First time as I land and inhale
The air of my land
Will it feel arid and alien
Without your breath mixed in it?

First time my sallow eyes 
Searching for a glimpse of you
In the collage of faces
Known and Unknown

How Many Firsts Can We Find

How Many Firsts Can We Find

If Hillary is next President there will be many firsts.
First Presidential Pair to take off in Air Force One.
First Presidential Pair to re-enter White House.
First female president to sign something into law.
First Female President to assign a new member to Supreme Court.
First Female President to bring in her old White

Unending Firsts

You think the time we met 
was when we locked eyes
But our souls knew each other
repeating lifetimes
An unspoken language
that needed no words
An automatic magnet
pulling us close
Why would two beings
fight, temp the fates
When we were destined
together, forever
an unending first

Firsts

It seems like yesterday we first met
I held you in my hands and knew you were safe
You put your head on my chest and drifted into complete silence
As you grew in strength you grew in independence
You listened intently as so you could speak your own voice
Unable to witness your first step you ran all over

Premium MemberAll My Firsts With You

 When I first viewed your pictures in the net
I knew I saw an Angel yet to be discovered.
When I first sent you a message
my hope of having a heavenly experience with you was created.
When I first read your response,
I felt so fulfilled and accomplished.

When I first talked to you through the Phone,
you made me

Our Firsts

I love experiencing all our firsts,
 The first time you walked me to my car,
underneath the shiny stars.
 mmmm our first kiss,
And how I couldn't wait 2 taste your lips.
 The first time we made love,
so confident and equipt.
 Never took our time for granted,
we were thankful for this gift.
 The first time you stayed
