Generously Poems

CRAFTWORK OF LIFE


    

Hands that perform tasks,
creative exercise of creating...

Feet that walk firmly
in the fruitful movement of walking...

Rain that falls generously
in the blessed gift of watering...

The wind blows that blows beneficently...
benign work of blowing!
Sleeps the night... healing sleeps,
inspiring epiphany in dreaming...
Goats skip,
healthy vibrant revelry...
Children are enlightened by playing
holy craft of educating,
Men should only love,
divine and pleasurable mission... in God to live
as craftsmen of love in life...
eternal, millennial life!

Photograph

Some haunt me pleasantly,
Using the grains of dewy silence that speak loudly
Within the long, grey halls of history.
I recline on such images with smiles I borrow from
The penetralia of my soul and skin.
Behind them come lean trees denuded by the swift
Gales of re-greened winters that celebrated
Friendliness in the course of wondrous seasons.
I peer deeply at them, genuflecting to Time
For its abundance of grace and reflections.
A spell of the past descends generously on me,
Navigating genially through the winding routes of
General ancestry.
They must be black, with the silhouettes I crave —
And white —with the silky mildews that glue together
Dispersed unity of the fragile present.
They transport me back to where I should have
Been but couldn’t be, through the nostalgia for
Where I was —only on sufferance.

The Harkening

Your smile beckons my heart
To come
As soothing rays of the sun
Nurturing famished hearts with warmth
As keys to the essence of your soul
Unlocking golden secrets yet untold
As stirrings of a gentle but persistent wind
Generously caressing both lovers and friends
As welcoming as a long-lived tree
A familiar yet majestic thing of beauty
Your smile beckons my heart
To come

Balmore Eruv Verve!

Once there was a Rabbi Yonah,
Whose Shabbos Eruv made you wonder,
Does Yonah’s art belong in the Louvre?
Does our gratitude behoove yah?
This Detroit Tiger slams a Homah!

For Yonah is Balmore’s donor,
Mesiras Nefesh, never a groaner,
Keeping Jews in the groove,
It only goes to prove,
Huh? Giving generously makes one an owner!

Premium MemberFlo and Hugo

Frazzled freakish freckled Flo
Generously gives gifts on the go
Huckster Hugo has eyes for Flo
If they get together, who will know?

Just Jeremy, Jenny, Jimmy and Joe
Kindly crazy kin set up a glow
Lighting the meadow for Hank and Flo
Midnight merriment, a fireworks show

not quite 
White Christmas,
but that'll do.
'tis the next best thing!

celestial confetti 
comes tumbling down 
at noon time 
generously,
incessantly;

palpable excitement 
hangs like hope in the firmament 
one of several 
children at play 
extracts her tongue 
waiting;
some did land...

and she squeals with joy!
ah, ivory flakes...
down they come;
tiny alabaster feathers
fluttering d

                 n             
like maple leaves in Autumn;
darting diagonally,
hullahooping 
in the December wind.

Premium MemberParadise regained

Nothing could be finer than to be deep  inside your v****a in the morning
Nothing could be sweeter than my sweetie when I touch her up  in the morning
When my morning glory presents itself at your widening   door
Threading through your fair forest to enter your oasis once more
Rolling with my girlie in our  bed so  bright and early in the morning
Puckering up my lips  to kiss your stiffening papillae tips in the morning
And then south of your succulent breasts I  often long to  go
To sip the ichor of your oasis in its fertile and full  flow
Until finally we again come back  chest to breasts and  face to face
To merge in that one climactic full and frenetic  embrace
From which we recover aquiver, relaxed and wholly spent.
A brief glimpse of heaven from above so generously sent
This engrossing eternal bliss allows us both to rise 
To luxuriate in our  fleeting moment of that pure paradise.
If I had a magic wand for only a day,
I'd make a wish and here's what I'd say,
"Nothing could be finer than to be deep in your v****a
Every morning"

A Man's Woman

There she is
working tirelessly every day
spending her time and effort generously.
She is confident in her business.
Always encouraging me spiritually.
Respectful and kind in speech, yet
firm when she speaks the truth.

There she is again
giving her best to Jehovah,
impressing me with her authenticity.
She expresses her heartfelt happiness,
her voice infused with joy.

There she is again with that smile
after she told me nothing will wipe it away.
Telling me she chooses to be selective,
selecting me as her confidant.

There she is once again
being the kind of woman I need.
Truly a gem in a loveless world.
Being loyal as she can be,
caring for me genuinely.

I am fully convinced
She's a man's woman,
albeit too modest to agree.
Happily, I would let her be
a man's woman just for me.

Premium MemberThe Offer


c o n t r a c t 
   on the table; ink is full
       in the pen.
       a deal so enticing,
    impossible 
to refuse. 

I sprinkled on top
   my r u i n o u s offer
      generously 
      with brown sugar,
    then glazed it
with honey.

c a l a m i t y be damned...
   a sweet tooth -
      after a r o l l e r - c o a s t e r of emotions -
      took a bite;
   'twas only 
a matter of time.

Premium MemberThe Person I Want to Be

I hope to be primarily
a man who suffers minim'lly.
Furthermore, I would hope to say,
I might improve another's day.
So, I do not harm yours truly,
or hurt other people, unduly.
It's easy now, as an old bloke,
a few decades, and I will croak.
I am single, my son is grown,
and I live by myself alone.
I am happy with who I am.
In that regard, I am a clam. 
If my independent son needs help,
he only needs to give a yelp
On the other hand (I just have two),
I might be challenged anew -
one more test for this old rover
would be if my love life's not over...

which could open Pandora's box.
I would have to change my socks.
Then, I'd need to look deep inside,
preventing tears from being cried,
gracefully, swallowing my pride,
my conscience being my guide,
opening up my heart so wide,
being always on her side,
ready and able to turn the tide,
to not into old habits slide,
I would need to clearly decide
to moral principles, abide,
generously I would provide,
faithfully, 'til the day I died...

but geezers rarely take a bride,
and I will take my life in stride.

Robert Sherriff Humility

Robert Sherriff - Australian - Poet -Author - Singer-Actor - American Historian – Photographer- Dedicated TO Shane Brooks

Humility

In the realm of emotions and actions, the path to love, giving, and belief unveils itself through the teachings of experience and introspection. To love deeply is a lesson learned through moments of vulnerability and connection, navigating the complexities of human relationships with empathy and understanding. 

Giving generously stems from the awareness of other's needs and the willingness to share from the heart. In its profound form, belief often arises from moments of humility, where one finds strength in surrendering to the unknown and embracing faith as a guiding light through life's trials and triumphs.

Premium MemberCharm of Life

“When life is getting you down,
remember a smile does more good than a frown.”
Quote - poet’s own

Life is meant to be a joy, mother said
From the first moment you wake
Till in bed your sleepy head is at rest
Happy is how we are meant to be
It’s a special gift from our magic maker 
Generously handed to thee freely 
Always be kind, however you feel
For harsh words live on forever
Kindness helps the broken to mend
It’s also an appealing charm of life.

YOUR SHARES OF THE CHEERS

Your intelligence, as good as driving amazing cars,
You dole out goodness, generously to all your pals,
Your wisdom, unassailably perches on the highest bar,
While foolish people, buried their's in a maar.

Your smiles burn sadness to a char,
Your beauty invites love to a chair,
Your kindness takes friendship a distance far,
The love you share is without a fear.

Your greatness, noone can ever dare,
In your heart, God's love is already there,
In the eyes of your enemies are rains of tears,
Meanwhile, to your prayers, God has his listening ears.

To your successes, God is always giving you cheers,
In divine blessings, God gave you the largest shares,
The toga of celestial favours, God made you a nice one to wear,
Heavenly salvation, God turns it into your special ware.

THE SONG SANG BY MY HEART FOR YOU

Your intelligence is of higher value than trillions of dollars,
Your wisdom can give wiseness to even the worst of dullards,
Your greatness will surely walk into many generations like a good ballard,
Anyone bad-mouthing your success is nothing but a shameless bastard.

The goodness you give is enough to put many hearts in perpetual cheers,
Your good deeds light up darkness in lives like sunlight through a sheer
Many souls are clinging to the thread of life because of the love you generously share,
Prosperity finds a permanent seat in your home on a comfortable chair.

Intelligence wears itself as a beautiful cap on your head,
Your good look attracts love like the plummage of a pretty bird,
Wisdom fills your mouth with the most beautiful words any mouth has ever said,
Your greatness is an enough envy for the living and even the dead.

Handsomeness fits you like a well-sewn suit,
God's blessings make your life appears so sweet,
Good fortunes are hosted in your home in your most cofy suites,
Your kindness removes pains like rubbing a sore with a balm that soothes.
