It's Good To Be Bible Right
.It's Good To Be Bible Right It's good to be Bible right, In these days and times, With thought of doing God's will, Afresh in our minds. We will all need the Bible, To examine our lives, To see where we stand, In doing this we are wise. If it convicts us, Then we need to get right, If it helps and inspires us,...

Sometimes Not Only The Mountains Shine
There is a legend deep in the Montana territory, The ancient tale of the shiny mountains that only few can see. Those majestic peaks soar upward almost piercing the clear blue sky, Yet one knows the real shine lies deep inside. Hidden deep inside the mountains it waits patiently, Waiting for that chosen one to set it free. Soon...

While The Sky Still Burns
Drink deep the wine of the waking sun— Its golden breath spills over trembling hills, And morning, that fragile and flaring drum, Beats wild against time’s shrinking quills. The hour is ripe with unsung fire, A tapestry woven from wind and flame. Step out — no fear, no false desire — The world does not wait, nor call your name. The robin’s hymn...

Crayon Box Dreams
When days of dreary tropes could feel no duller, and gray heavens escape my pencil’s reach, —oh misery!, it can’t be set to speech,— my crayon box dreams of unbridled color! When weeks waste precious hues for wanton squalor, my paintings doning the pale death of bleach, —or worse!—, if poetry can no more teach,— my crayon box prays for fuller color! Woe!Woe!Woe!—unto...

Bend, Don't Break
She walks through storms—not afRaid, but awake, With calm in hEr bones though the skies may break. Time doesn’t heal—it only weatherS the ache, Yet she plants her feet In the burn and the quake. When dreams collapse, she quietLy repairs The fragments of joy and Innocent prayers. HEr grin may be torn, but it still holds grit— A threadbare map with...

Keep Moving
This is a season for peace but not where the war rages, not as our country men die, not as the grill burns human flesh and the sky rains ash. My dear friends, do not tire out as the bombs drop, As the gangs plunder, our babies starve, and friends go missing. As the water dries out, as the chasm widens, when moon shows no light and...

Identity Crisis
Long after midnight in late December woke one night in total fright as where I was did not remember but more importantly couldn't see the forest for the trees and did not recall myself at all or who exactly was this me but when I could it would feel so good as then I'd be out of the woods so instead of groping blind did quite the obvious...

I RAN
I ran not out of fright, I ran not because I was chased. I ran not because I felt compelled, Nor from some urging to flee from something or someone. I ran not because others did, I ran not because I'm an idealist at heart. I ran not because...

Don't Waist Your Wishes
It's that special day and you stroll the lonely beach, when out of nowhere you stub your toe on a lamp that falls right out of reach. Suddenly, a genie arises and looks deeply into your eyes. In your mind you hear a whisper, three wishes I will grant as long as you don't tell...

Whip
I need a break, a minute’s breath of space; The furious tempo driving me along, a fussy temper, fervent all day long to strive, stress, toil, scramble to keep the pace— —the pace of a spent poet keeping face;— enough to numb a hand that once inked strong words, and made paper sound loud as a gong.— and what a base...

Premium Member The Turtle and the Hare
Did you know that Turtle soup, Is a favorite of the group? What a shame to taste so good, When you do as turtles should. Rabbits run a faster race, Turtles try to keep the pace, But they cannot match the speed, When a rabbit takes the lead. Rabbits too are tasty treats, When they pay for their defeats, But the turtles always face, Someone faster...
