Premium Member Instant Connection Star Wars Tribute Rondel
With a ‘May the Force be with you.’ we have an instant connection. Bespin’s a welcome distraction, right through the asteroids they flew. We’re members of the Falcon’s crew, each essential to it’s function. With a ‘May the Force be with you.’ we have an instant connection. Multiplex, drive-in, the whole slew. Say it fierce, there’s no objection. Other films? No competition. You...

Fragmented thought strives to join all the dots, attempting to make sense of what appears but analysis partitioned in slots, can define not pathways bliss rapture spears. Calling upon a fish to climb a tree, dog to work out square root of minus one, the sunken to tell us how to be free, doomed to failure, thus we must come undone. In...

In an instant… One can feel the love from a Glenn Hughes song The rhythm quickly soothing one’s soul In an instant… One can love his bass sounds Complimenting one’s heart beats In an instant… One can sway and dance ‘Getting tighter all the time’ In an instant… One can know the Voice of Rock Is here for us always In an instant… One can love...

The incisive probe of insight dissects my life’s stratum of delusion, the shards of shattered pretense scatter as discarded debris, the mind reminds itself to forget. The blizzard of discontent blows, my desolate heart turns into a tree defoliated in wasteland, far away from verdant thicket. The sunburst day fades out fast, dusk envelopes the twilight sky. I don’t...

In An Instant
As he spoke, His words were like a hammer, shattering the defences of darkness. They were like light tunnelling through the night. They were like the sun rising to brighten the sky. Oh, we were misled by our choices. Oh, we were obscured by our decisions. We walked believing...

An instant touch Can bring life Fertilize an egg Procreate and excel Expand on an idea Stand on business Grow your company Instant entrepreneurial touch An instant touch Can bring death Shot of a gun Driving drunk An instant touch can heal Like the woman in the bible Who had an issue of blood Touched His hem was made whole My instant cup of...

In an instant, life can change, Things get weird, and paths feel strange. A spark, a flash, it all can shift, And suddenly, you're set adrift. A word, a hug, a simple smile, Can make you happy for a while. One small thing can change the game, And nothing ever stays the same. A storm might come, the skies might roar, But calm can...

In an Instant 1-23-25 Contest by Craig Cornish “It is finished!” John 19:30 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In an Instant Eternity winks in a breath - Eden wakes from exile – Seconds split into bits of past and present. Darkness evaporates – winter and midnight only memories - As hidden fountains of mercy burst through parched crusts In places where wild things think they...

Premium Member Enlightenment in an instant
Held captive in space and taunted by time, impressions graze soul as senses entwine, where recognition dawns betwixt love’s chime, in that instant when head and heart align. Blink and we’ll miss it, that flicker in space, beheld if our ego, we but let go, whereupon the veil lifts admitting grace, revealing our being, pristine like snow. Soundless thunder rising from down under, lights...

It Only Took An Instant
It only hook a moment When I saw you from across the room, Standing there talking with the bride And groom. Though we had met some years ago at a gathering, Little did we know we would be part of Barb and Dan's wedding. I smile and nodded as I casually walk toward the food trays, What happened next, well...

In an instant, one or more lives can be changed forever. A car crosses the road, now headed for a pick-up truck. The driver, husband and father to be, lies dead on the road. The wife and mother to be will some how survive, but will never be the same. The unborn baby will also survive, their lives will be changed forever. Their loving mother...

In an Instant A towering temple of trust Is not built in a day, in an instant But spans over years and years; From laying of its base of sincerity To its inner shrine of beauty It is wrapped with the cement of honesty Sprinkled with water of...
