One where a curse has been bestowed,
Where the darkest clouds have been forbode,

Our Father's Love Prevails

They sang to say hi
Detailed feathers right on through

Softened Stones
...Slotted rocks allotted in a stacked wall of stone
Greeted me gray as smoke, carved statue honed
Halted my walk among sun snuck tall trunk home
Flatly reminded my psyche I'd arrived here alone

We arrived with expectations of triumph
There were agonies, desperations and tears
Coloring the hills with melancholy shades
Erasing the imaginings of soldier’s anguish

...Juniper blended with the richness of Mohagany
as the well soaped Maidens accompliced
in the impness of Dawn.
A strong coffee poulticed a hint of Cinnamon,

When I was twelve and he fourteen,
It took away his ambitions,
To study at Oxford - the pipe organ’s steam.

Without thinking of Damien on his devilish du...

Get rid of the Strid with its seething torrent trapped amid the caves
In downward spiral coursing through a web of underwater stone
Oh that the river would have carved a safer way away...

In the shadows of your failure
I used to think you'd let them chide
Your heart, for it wasn't pure
Stained by failure you forever ...

To enjoy the sunshine, not the rain
Going to try to be like others smiling
Enjoy some time, ignorant in bliss
Today I ignore what is wrong in the world
