Peace Footle Poems

Big fight
Last night

Clyde's Bar
Bizzare

Tough guys
Streetwise

Much brew
Fists flew

Thrown chairs
Pulled hairs

Black eyes
Loud cries

One bloke
Nose broke

Heads bashed
Teeth trashed

Knives slashed
Pecs gashed

Cops came
To tame

Powwow
Peace now

All's well
That's swell

Great fight
Last night

Sustained in dulcet fugue
blue waters 
converge inside 
moments of mountains
imbued with silent springs

Pouring illusive champagne dreams
rainbow arches
that impale the softness 
it sings bubbling pale perfect

outlook’s
dreary

often 
teary

drained and
weary

tired of
dealing

with this
feeling

soon I’m
kneeling

seeking 
God’s peace

“Make dark
thoughts cease

my strength
increase

only
you can

grant peace
to man”

For me
and thee

Your peace
my piece

Play pong
not wrong

Just ask
not bask

When I
tell why

Love sows
and grows

Even
not then

Noise rocks
and sucks

Round gongs
ding dongs

So now
somehow

Live now
not gnaw

Pray once
and dance

Minstrel
swing well

Up north

 Sun glows
Wind blows

Trees sway
It’s May

Blooms beam
Bees swarm

Birds sing
Songs ring

Good day
Kids play

Pain stills
Joy fills

Bird trills
Sound spills

Hate wanes
Peace reigns

Winds kiss
It’s bliss
