Premium Member Compassion

~Compassion~
(Rhyme)


Compassion is something wonderful that we all should feel,
Every human being should experience it  just like love everyday,
God surely shows His divine love and compassion to  all of us,
He does it in everything and all that we go through

So let's show always our love, caring and  compassion for other folks,
I know that there are so many folks out there who  suffer too,
They're just going through a lot of sorrow, loss, and pain today,
It's not really hard to show sympathy, and give them a helping hand too

Charity and compassion should start right in our homes,
Just give  it to all your friends and family members as well  too,
It is part of our original make-up when God created us,
God expect us not only to show Love but Compassion, to everyone too

Compassion is not just an emotion, it's something more we all should feel,
It's something very natural embeded in each of us as human beings  too,
And it doesn't take too much to demonstrate it to just about anyone around,
It can be a smile or just a kind word, to someone who may need it a lot too.

Premium Member Shadows Reborn Each Morn

Shadows detach at dusk to sneak silently away 
to roost together like bats in rookeries,
hanging upside down, wrapped in black mantles, gossiping.

Each shadow reborn each morn seeks out its host
like a parasite seeking sustenance and succour,
for a shadow detached is inanimate and non-existent.

Shadows need light and objects to cast silhouettes
to give shadows life, substance and vitality.
Only things of this world cast shadows,
So things and beings that cast no shadow are spooky.

Shadows follow you around mirroring every move you make.
In endless shadow-puppet performances
they often give you away when you sneak up,
and showcase your slinks and skulks when you slither away.

The brighter the light the stronger the shadow.
Multiple lights cast multiple shadows.
Shadows are too dark and foreboding of death and evil to be friends
For shadows are cast by the living, the dead and lifeless things.
But only the living animate shadows into life.

The Old Folk

They are like some other beings altogether

the cry more animal than human

wordless pathos,musical,disturbing

They have gone back to a troubled and imagined infancy

but no mother responds to such a nightmare of overgrown voice boxes

the cry of a rabbit wolf in a trap

it’s the shriek in the wall cry of a baby in a nightmare.

Nicholas cries for Sylvia in the inverse of a dream

and so it will be for you and me

Trapped in this old body with its old brain

on and on they cry

help me, help me,help me

nurse nurse

I want the manager I want the manager

I don’t want to be here I don’t want to be here

I want to go home

Help me

we don’t listen because they have dementia

what they say has no meaning.

that’s our defence mechanism.

I am the norm

You are abnormal

but you smiled when I asked you if you would like your hair dyed pink

and I know you love the music therapist.

Your smell repels

Alas

Is this where Jesus dwells

Premium Member Waltzing In the Stars - a Collaboration With Mike

In dream's embrace, I hear sweet music play, 
my arms filled with your temple so sublime.
Your beauty shines across God's timeless sea,
within the star's brocade my brightest light.
Come waltz with me betwixt eternal stars,
love croons its serenade within our hearts.
Come dance with me across this stardust floor,
in swirls of love we’re waltzing in the stars.

The distant stars are here within your eyes
in luminary love I am entranced,
you sweep me up within your rhythmic sway
and stir me with your breath upon my cheek.
Warm lips impassioned whispering my name;
your craving lights me up with bliss tonight.
We rise and fall amidst soft moonbeam’s muse
enraptured in our waltz among the stars.

Within moonglow, our spotlight in the night, 
to heartbeats of desire we dance in time,
my love, we are aflame in passion’s heat, 
in soulful heart to heart our love does sing. 
Within your goddess presence I am lost 
so deep within the dance that binds our joy,
we whirl in Luna's light your lips on mine
in fervent love we’re waltzing in the stars.

Ethereal and lyrical we are
our magic on this night is heaven sent,
what wondrous thrills we glide on melodies
oh, lustrous love is here within our reach.
We strum each other our sweet music lush;
our beings are the instruments of love,
ascending heights your touch is taking me
in supernova waltz among the stars.

Dinner Grilled and a Land Forgotten

You are far away now
Off in fields of gold
Dappled with evenings hot velvety light
90 degrees of separation has dulled the sword
 eased the pain
The grasshoppers chirp in unison to your labors but they no longer ache in your solar plexus
Nor mine
What sweet sorrow is loss and gain
I now walk down the very paths I have always so longed for
 the dark rich peat paths of happiness
contentment oozes from these fingertips as I write and I wonder if happiness is poetry
Or does it preclude it all together

The night sky fills with stars 
The stars fill with fire flies that burst out of them like infinitesimal lightning bolts
jettisoned to my soul

 he and I chase storms on decks swirled in smoke
We banter and bay at one another

 you are in a field of gold somewhere
or beside  

a river bed
The smell of the wet earth of shore beneath you reaches me… but momentarily 
dismissed as the ash of the bonfire of a week ago fire or the grill of last night’s 
unbelievably tasty ribs he concocted from air for me and me alone 

but then we shared with so many
 dinners

Lingers on my lip tips…the bottom edge

 I kiss him and mean it with all I am 
A being 
a re-being

Super beings are we 
all
and our colors wash 
upon the canvas of my life 
melding into one great magnificent us 

Spectacular are we
the creatures who so love life 
we give our only begotten selves to each other
and never ever forsake 
us

Premium Member I Knew I would Die Here

The three hooded beings came stealthily, silently, secretively.
The cobblestones gave nothing away as they sneaked past a few.
I saw them, and wondered, but did not realize they were heading for me.
It was too late to run, and my weapons were nowhere in sight.
I thought I could take the one on the left
But the sword-carrier would no doubt run me through if I did.
The one in the middle looked the most dangerous; for he held two swords.

One of them began to laugh.
The sound was chilling; my muscles tensed.
Cornered, I knew I would die here.
Don’t you recognize me, Sister?
It was my twin and her odd friends, having fun.
She had never seemed more dangerous which is saying a lot.
For she has always been diabolical and mean.
I knew then I was in sincere danger.

A complicated issue may often be better understood 
By breaking it down into a few undeniable facts. 
This is especially helpful with comprehending 
An issue that is new, or unfamiliar.
For example:
Thomas Jefferson was a famous American,
A man of many accomplishments. 
He was a scholar, a scientist, 
An inventor, an author, 
A musician, a statesman, 
A president, and a plantation owner. 
As a plantation owner, 
He was also a racist, 
A slave owner,
And a rapist 
Who exploited the labor
Of fellow human beings 
For his own profit. 
That is all verifiable history. 
It’s as simple as that. 
Let the truth be told. 
That’s critical race theory.

Premium Member Try Your Best

If we all tried our best,
To do everything we can
To make the world a better place
And to embrace our fellow man

Our skins may be of a different colour.
Our brains form the same.
We are all human beings,
With different cultures and names.

We should celebrate the differences,
That adds interest and intrigue
To a life that would be mundane
Full of self-interest and greed

How would we survive,
If we were all the same?
Our education would be limited,
And some would go insane

Because of intermarrying
One of your kith and kin
What a state of affairs
It would put the world in.

Whatever race we are
Be it black, white, red, or yellow
Our inner core is the same
Born a girl or fellow

War makes unrest
It never makes peace,
If this were so
Wars would cease,

Individual inner peace
The peace that calms the soul,
War solves nothing
It takes its toll

In every facet of life
Causing bloodshed and strife

So before we crumble and fall
Individuals, one and all
Give your best
And The Almighty will do the rest.

Power of Love

the spectacle of beauty claims supremacy
inticing soceity in spells which last endlessly
portraying tendencies to embody our community 
no defense of immunity- all fall victims to its feet
from the commons to the elite- its facits are discrete
its seeks its enemies by engulfing their thoughts
with no force, entering your conscious as a trojan horse
using your mind as the source to your emotions
evoking instant devotion through meager words spoken
submerged in an ocean of opposing brain waves
to enslave mortals in ways of an enigma maze
which you portray as being tangled in the web you wove
in which you seemingly chose to configure and rove
and with each embracement or concealing of lips
ascends you to a new level of bliss
and temporarily answers the question why you exist
its mere presence extracts your from dark depression
soft words of passion leave eternal impressions
and each session gone wrong acts as a lesson
there are societies that marvel at how my power mends man
and how stupid fools put bands upon somones hand
and expect that grants them an everlasting relation
but bonds are cracked by inticing looks of infatuation
acts of deviation onset to experience its partner sex's sensations
people have vowed and longed for it since the begining of time
even in divine, in passion god created mankind
and sent 2 beings perfectly crafted from above
whos emotions soared upon the cleratic wings of the dove
cause behind every action stands the face of love.............
