Jack Frost, the seasoned master of our winter days,
Arrives with gifts of frost, sleet, ice and snowy haze.
Cold winds fly in to wake him from his sleep and rise.
Kissed by the frigid air, he fashions from the skies,
Frozen white flakes of snow and icy sleet that may
Return to slush with sunny warmth on the next day.
Of course, he naps again until cold winds come back,
Sing loud the signal with their howl to remind Jack
To keep his winter wonderland of white on track.

My friend, I wish you not to think me rude
Or to have wronged you when I spoke so terse
Now I must be I fear, in your sight viewed
Odd at the best or cold if at the worst.
Some men I see can weave their speech with ease.
Yes, some it seems can speak with tongues so quick.
Like kites their words float light on but a breeze;
Lame fall my words, when spoke, more like a brick
And land to frame the walls that form my cell.
By trust will soon that jail of fear be razed.
In time if pressed you come to know me well
Choose then to ask; I'll talk to you for days

In addition to being an acrostic poem, it is also written with only monosyllabic words (because in addition to being a poet, I'm also a little bit crazy)
Shadows cast on yesterdays
Haunt her still, as she recalls
A time of impurity.
Masking her loneliness, she
Excelled at performing sex,
Fulfilling an inner need.
Uncertain of whom to trust,
Lust controlled her libido.
For when she sold her body,
Every pleasure was indulged.
Entertaining nightly, meant
Leaving little time for faith.
Inside her heart, love withered,
Numbed by a lifetime of sin.
Gradually she sought God,
Sensing His love stir within.
Repentant, she shunned sin, to
Embrace the life of a nun.
Purged of sexual thoughts, she
Eagerly denounced her past,
Never more to return to
The wonton ways of her youth.
Emptied of all, but her pain,
Dejected, she kneels to pray.
(A first letter acrostic poem spelling "Shameful Feelings Repented.")
Love isn’t amorousness,
Nor is it hunger nor thirst,
With vehemence, I insist: Love is a perpetual motion machine
O! Break! Break! Break! My Hardened Heart!
Be shattered by Love,
And let all your disquietude be shaken out of you, like candy out of a pinata!
E*very time you sacrifice something lesser for something greater, that is Love
From the beginning, nothing you were taught will ever matter more
Find in your heart the beginning, then work Love into practical things
Erupt! With Joy! At the presence, near, of the Beloved
Receive Her as though this new day will be your last
Veneration may be for sillies or fuddies but DO it
Elopement is all the way for the strong of heart
Sight fails, and then the hands learn to know the face of the Beloved
Crying verses with bell-like tongues fly out of those who yearn for Love's Purity
Energy-in-motion is never big enough or beautiful enough to sing Her Name
Near-to-Death, no heart, ever, does not prize it most
Clearly, clean clinical classifications cloy, clot and clutz the fervidness of Love
E*very time you sacrifice something lesser for something greater, that is Love
And now, to the subject of reverence…
When her body is a holy temple before you,
When you must wash your hands and feet and face before you approach her
When you joy to fluff her pillows or your breath catches, when you touch her
face,
When all of her is Divine unto you, and Delightful, and Dear
THEN
That is the beginning of Love!

Shepherd and Bishop of the Church of Gnosis
Teacher of the tradition of inner knowing
Entered this world through the Kingdom of the Magyars
Passerby bishop in Yaldabaoth’s world of night
Holding his staff to the twinkling eons above
Awakening us to the blazing mind of Jung
Nourishing the eon of gnosis arisen
Anointed in heavenly baths of Christ Jesus
Hoeller died, yet he now lives in unfading light
Our Lady Sophia shed tears this month and night
Enter the Fullness of love and divinity
Lily of the valley, who escaped death’s valley
Look and behold the divine aeons’ faces
Enter the Fullness of the Mother and Father
Rest in the Bridal Chamber of Christ our saviour
(Acrostic poem in honour of Bishop Stephan A. Hoeller, who died on May 3 2026).
After the summer but before the snow
Ultra-red maple leaves fall down below
The emerald fields turn into burnt amber
Under the villa they swirl, twist and camber
Moonlight turns into chilled crisp night air
Never again will you feel the warmth there
Light tangerine and deep medallion colors
Each and every leaf different that the others
Above the trees they soar with gusty might
Valedictory to all the bright summer sight
Every year Autumn is full of beautiful blades
Such a divine creation mother nature has made

Acrostic poem written by scottydotti_the_poet 10/08/2026
Blessed* --- divine word of Providence-grant
Love-filled, revealing life, blissfully triumphant
Expressing heart, earnestly jubilant
Satisfied by God’s provisions, super-abundant
Sufficed, though resources seem scant
Embellished with great truths, excellently relevant…
Distinguished reality I delight in; “blessed” makes me exuberant!
Blessed**: human term testifying about the pleasant and significant
Liberating attitude from being selfishly arrogant
Empowering soul to be generously compliant
Showing goodness of the Lord, gloriously radiant
Sharing sincere love, rebuking the bitterly defiant
Exemplifying joyous peace, heavenly elegant…
Distinct favorite word of mine; “blessed”*** moves my faith as Christ’s servant!
*2Samuel 22:47 The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.
**Jeremiah 17:7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
***Luke1:45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

If I could only take away your pain
You would always find my hand in yours
Need you by my side
A love for you so strong and never dies
Friend, husband, my lover
I’m forever yours
Sailing together on life’s rough journey
Right by your side forever
Behind us all our troubles, we just look forward to the future
Like our holiday in the sun
A break we need so much since you have been so ill
Bridge built, no barrier we cannot overcome
Over all the years together
Troubled times are now in the past
Water under the bridge, your cancer is gone forever
I will be yours until the day we die
Will stay by your side
Ease back gently into the peaceful life we once knew
Your ever loving wife
Mind body and soul forever yours
Written for the Competition sponsored by Roy Jerden
