Never have I been the best storyteller
An average speller
And easy going feller
Shoutout to 'Old Yeller'
Above, below and within any cellar
With or without the use of propellers
In areas considered interstellar

Props to 'The Clan of the Cave Bear'
Concerning everywhere
Realize life isn't always going to be fair
Regardless of if you're a million or billionaire
So keep on climbing to the top of the stairs
Stay aware and prepared
While still enjoying the view from there

Feeling puzzled?
It's no joke read 'The Jungle"
You wouldn't want to slip, stumble and take a tumble
Even if you are overly confident or humble
It took so much dedication, hustle
And muscle
To get through the struggle
As well as any trouble

Respect to 'Where the Wild Things Are'
Even if it was a little different and somewhat bizarre
Whether on foot, plane, bike or car
Keep on reaching far
No matter who you are
Believe that you will become a star


Look
I thoroughly enjoyed all these books

Including 'Life of Pi'
I just can't lie
It's in our best interest to try
Despite if we can't always find out why
Keep living your life, attempting to do right
During any day and night

One day while walking thru the woods 
I saw a big brown bear 
I looked at him he looked at me  
We both just stopped and stared 

He looked at my fingers 
As I looked at his nose 
He looked at my funny ears 
That  were  blue because it was cold

He looked at my woolen hat 
And very rosy cheeks 
As I was wondering to myself 
I wonder what bears eat

I then  looked at his massive paws 
As he looked at my feet 
At   this time I noticed 
His very long sharp teeth

The bear let out a  mighty roar
And I began to tremble
As a thought ran thru my mind
Is it food that I resemble

I then looked down at my watch 
And said 
Is that the time , Oh my
You’ll have to excuse Mr Bear 
I really have to fly

We Are Not Promised Tomorrow

Sorrow weighed my soul down somehow
Tomorrow is around the corner
I was hurt way too many times now
I was once a deep, deep forlorner

Deliver me from desolation right now, right now
The Lord responded to me when I cried out
Mistreated and misunderstood, so I take a bow
The forgiveness of Him heals me without a doubt

Humility is given to those who wait patiently
Enviousness will vanish away from us abruptly
Mercy shall be received by the gratification of our hatredless heart
Contemplating revenge won’t lead us anywhere, but tear us apart

They say we are not promised tomorrow
Today, saving grace sifted out the sorrow
Evilness has resided in me for so long
I’m sorry for everything I’ve done all along

Internal thoughts feel like they are absolutely everlasting
I feel as if I am falling fast asleep in clouds of negativity 
Yet, optimism saves me from tragedy’s undying sting
I deal with these emotions of worthlessness in a frenzy

I wish all the doubts and fears would be water under the cement
I often dreamt of you and I, crying joyous tears, not resentment
Cheer up and rise above the waters of woe, oh sorrowful soul of mine
Someday, you will shine and you will be my sugar wine…if only you were mine…

Forgive me seven times seven
Give me your hell and heaven
Release me entirely from rage’s incredible hold
Mend me at ease please or I’ll be left in the cold

Mine eyes are set on the Holy Hill of my Father
He is like no other – He’s nurturing like no other
Like a mother bear to her cubs is His love towards us
His anger will be no more, for we are on the same bus

Overcome these waves of emotion that come and go
Numb me with bravery and lift the highest of my low
Although seas and mountains are too intimidating to climb or swim,
I will trek His road of abode and hold me for safety’s sake in a whim

Some say we are not promised tomorrow
But, God promises a greater Tomorrow
Greater than this sorrow within me and you
Greater than the feelings of bittersweet rue

Some say we are not promised tomorrow
Let my strength grow and His light glow
God promises us an afterlife of beautiful blessings
Let’s see what heavenly beams that God brings

Premium Member Come On Down To the Savoury Hotel

I shall try not to give you the impression that on the Iowa Frontier
We are either a swindler, a thief, or a joker but come closer, my dear.
You might want to check into the Savoury Hotel. This is quite clear.
Do not worry. Your peacock and hippopotamus are already here.
We have your favorite snacks, and in the frig is cold beer. 

Oh, there is a dilemma? Well, please do not broadcast that.
I want my guests to enjoy their vertical activities in this flat.
We have a universal TV set up, and there is play station and a cat.
If you come stay with us, so what do you say to that?
If you are checking in late, the key will be under the mat.

The hippopotamus is already down in the casino, bending a chair.
The peacock is preening in front of the mirror, with nary a care.
The Iowa Frontier’s Savoury Hotel is ready, and our prices are fair.
We are waiting for you, honey. You may bring cousin Lair.
If you do not turn up soon, we are loaning your bed to a bear.

HELLEBORES

symbol of contrast 
like Noah's ark in harsh storm
captivation norm

endurance am I
alluring in mountains rest
winters embrace test

integrated light
across wild echoes stoic 
exudes pure stillness 
 
delicate yet tough
unassailable maiden
artists awed humming 

alchemists delight 
aligned with capricorn's might
pristine determined 

raw unadorned self
expresses inner kingdom 
nourishes itself

secrets in dark roots
poison perceptual moot
duality hoots

sacrifice and faith
face adversity with grace
revelation brace

with each unclasping  
petals open mystical 
surrender holding 

scent nascent nadir
sacred self-preservation 
authentic profound

quiet verdict holds
love is not parasitic
terrifying peace

contemplate christmas
quest each due ecstatic depth 
silent witness bear

so do I exist
cold thorns after each snow dawn 
god's love not forlorn

Premium Member On This Mountain

Here now
I stand and see
Watch how
Time comes to be


On this mountain
See far
Know for certain
On par


Note thus
For the first time
Rich dust
Such empty rhymes


On harsh terrain
Brief urge
Feel odd refrains
***** surge


World spins
Beyond mere flesh
Thoughts thin
Gone in a flash


Glimpse of unease
Flood here
Seeking lost peace
In cheer


We grope
Lost in quaint grief
We cope
Bear moments brief


Sense time and space
Now sap
Without a trace
No map


Seize sense
Astound mad theme
Trap tense
Fall into dream


Madness floods all
Fall fast
Taste bitter gall
Flood cast


Dead fate
Dust burnt-out flame
Too late
Rush to end game


We go, we come
Void voice
Nothing now sums
New noise

Time's precious coin

In realms where Time's the coin we spend,
Each tick and tock, a life-earned wage,
I'd hoard each breath, 'til purpose blend,
No moment squandered on an empty page.

My labor's worth? The measured heartbeats lent,
A craftsman's skill, in hours distilled,
To purchase dreams, a soul's intent,
A tapestry of moments, artfully filled.

To buy compassion, I'd a season spare,
A helping hand, a listening ear,
For solace shared, a burden to bear,
Investing Time to quell another's fear.

The rich, of course, would ages own,
Immortality, their gilded prize,
While paupers rush, their life force shown,
In hurried steps, beneath Time's watchful eyes.

But wisdom whispers, Time's true wealth,
Lies not in owning years untold,
But savoring each moment, finding health,
In stories lived, and futures to behold.

So, I would spend my Time with grace,
Each second cherished, light and free,
Embracing life, at my own pace,
A timeless legacy, for all to see.

Premium Member Christmas Time

Christmas swings in as Santa does on his sleigh
Unexpectedly even if we all were aware of his coming
Christmas brings with it, its load of warmth
Causing us all to bite our lips and hold back our tears
Swallowing our regrets, breathing in and out our hopes
Clenching in our fists, our frights,
And finally letting go, of our vents, in the solitude of our dens!


Christmas fades out as swiftly as seasons do
Giving us never a signal that it had dropped by;
As the season of good intentions, set to revive 
Memories of those moments we enjoyed
Those we wish to erase
Those people who have left us for the heavenly abodes
Those other people who have hurt us
And those whom we love, whom we cling on us
As desperately as do narcotics to their drugs!


Christmas comes around with an aim
That of allowing us to enjoy some family time,
A boost much needed to fill our hearts with enough energy
As to survive the rest of the year!

But Christmas weighs so heavily on our hearts
Life remains so shaky
Our tomorrows are not promised
And our todays stand on unstable grounds!

Pray, is it a happy time
We do celebrate the coming of the son of the Lord
But then, we do have to bear in mind
That the Lord's son did come to suffer
So, 
It becomes a stated fact that so shall we 
Whether it be at Christmas time or at any other time!

Premium Member Apocalypse

Live with sure heart,
Love wears a sign;
Live like still art,
Peace now aligns.


Live with sound mind,
Hope feels a thrill;
Live each bold find,
Health follows will.


Live with pure soul,
Faith owns body;
Live quest made whole,
Wealth must set free.


Live with firm poise,
Cheer starts grand flow;
Live vivid choice,
Zest wears joy's glow.


Live with kind stock,
Set happy here;
Live on firm rock,
Grace seeds and steers.


Live with passion,
Love what you do;
Live wise action,
Deed starts with you.


Live with purpose,
Know your own dream;
Live grandeur's purse,
Focus your theme.


Live with goodwill,
Bear strain and pain;
Live and fulfill,
Hurl love's refrain.

Premium Member IN HEALING ONEDERFUL ONEMENT

Inhabited pain,
Cannot be given to others;
It’s never transferable.

 

Self inflicted pain

Can only reside in self:-

It is yours to bear.

 

Residential pain

Is not beyond eviction:-

Inject peace and love.

 

Self-loneliness blinds—

You cannot hide from yourself:-

That shadow is you.

 

Ask, seek, and listen—

There is a knock at your door:-

God comes for the pain.

 

Pain is healed with love;

Where love is pain cannot be:-

Love one another.

 

Healing together—

One for all and all for one

Onederful onement.



Let's always praise God

For the trinity oneness

Of His supreme love:-
