Premium Member Lies have become a deep abyss between us

Lies have become a deep abyss between us,
And now, with a gentle voice, you silently confess to me,
That the fear of losing me hid the truth in shadows,
But if love was your fear, why did you not trust?
How little you valued what we shared under the stars,
How carelessly you let the moments turn to ashes,
But do all these things matter now, or do they really matter?
Is that the question that brought you wandering back to me?
Time has pulled us like tides, slowly separating us,
The distance between us is not in miles, but in deep scars,
Like rivers of melancholy flowing through the map of the soul,
Between us lies a sky of extinguished stars that divides us.
I ask you, in the night of shadows and late truths,
Where did we go wrong, where was the thread of light that united us lost,
And if there is still a way to find it, to bring it back to life,
Or are we just strangers who shared a dream scattered in the wind?

Premium Member Do It Again

Do It Again

When I was little I fell down. 
We all did that. 
When, we were little. 

Later, I fell off…
A ladder, a motorcycle, a cart, a bike, 
several other motorized vehicles commercially, 
and non-commercially constructed by 
back yard engineers of extremely high standing…
at least in Our Corner of the World. 

The one common denominator was “get up.” 
Get back in it, on it, under it, or where ever you ride it…
and do it again… maybe not that way… however. 

Today as I went out to pick up something, 
I was not motorized, but there were wheels involved.
Get the mail, get a trash can or other thing…
Bring it back to the house.
That I had done…
ten thousand times before. 
Instead I found something new…
Flight.
I also found pavement. 

Hard and unyielding, 
completely rearranging…
parts…
of me…

A bruise, a scrape and I know an angel limped from the scene. 
There were at least a dozen white feathers…
Nothing broken, except my pride.
That is okay. It is useless anyway.

Worry

worry is a habit that will sap your strength
anxiety, neurosis, hypertensiveness
worry is sinful for it belies trust and faith in our Lord
yet we bring it upon ourselves, a sin we can ill afford
we tend to put the wrong people 
and things first in our lives
some people need to be loved from afar 
and some things will give you the hives

incompatibility, negativity and discouragement
are uphill battles of spiritual indifference
when you're around certain people
do you feel better or do you feel worse?
minimize your time with them
and spend time with God first

peace of mind, tranquility and a quiet life
are very attainable if you accept the love of Christ
be careful, discerning 
and let the Lord God play a major role
stop worrying about people and the things
over which you have no control

Premium Member Help the Duck

He has a stalker 
Getting to the bottom of it, 
who hurt the duck 
Hint dabbing
probing for intelligence 

Sent seedy 
email to duck 
Containing x rated material, 
I am suspicious
 he might get hurt, 
mad horrid 
roaring sounds 
With an awful 
weird voice 

Duck hell 
He can 
not sleep 
Help 
the little fellow, 
we need to investigate probing 
Keep filthy videos out 

The duck 
will never be the same 
He is on valium 
at the moment, 
a vet 
has been dispatched 
By private helicopter 
as we speak 

He needed 
to be treated for 
Were do I start, 
aggravated stress 
brought on, 
wait to you hear it 
By that xrated video 

Refusing to leave 
the house 
Scared he might 
see that monster, 
the video left 
in his mind, 
he knows now 
what insanity is 
he wont pass the door 

The duck 
ain't happy 
Nearly blew 
his mind, 
ha ha ha 
in stitches 

You ain't seen 
mad crazy duck 
There aint no sunshine 
bring it on 
quack quack 
He is gone
 quackers

Premium Member Us Girls Live in a Fantasy

Waist not an outfit, Barbie with her slip-on shoes,
fairy-belts; plush hair, sometimes in ponytails.

Forget-me-not her impossible figure. Why do some
suppose that Barbie should be fat or ostracised?

So what we dream in fairytales! So what, feminity
is only skin deep and doesn’t include secret places.

Us girls always knew what was there. It’s all pretend.
We live in a fantasy. So what, Ken is not the doll

he’s cracked up to be. He still represents those others,
when we were too young or shy to approach those males.

I loved my Barbie dolls! I didn’t have enough - my aunt
had a whole boxful that I’d play with on yearly visits.

I had a Barbie wig, the kind for a doll’s head. Missing
a wig that just happened to be at my neighbor friend’s.

She said it was hers…it could have been. I didn’t believe
it then…do I believe it now…I do if were meant to

stay friends, even at a distance, because I might fight
for a boxful, but a wig - that’s just ridiculous. Even in

swimsuit stripes, Barbie is striking. She bares her shoulders.
She has those long, luxurious legs. I’m short, but I

can have fun dressing her up. I must buy my wardrobe
on the spot, if it looks good; if it’s a good fit. But

Barbie, she can wear anything. She was better than
paper dolls though I still enjoyed dressing them.

Barbie can be dolled up or wear a tweed suit.
She can have a modern do, wear gloves and a hat.

This trending doll grooves through the ages,
changes colors, hairstyles, and outfits.

Lastly, covid inspired a book idea, for Karen Feder,
Barbie Takes The Catwalk. I saw this Mattel doll

in my library’s oversized book collection…
I had to bring it home, as if it was a puppy dog.


Premium Member The Reason

" This was first posted in 2024, but it does describe him well, its the reason I may not always seem normal. At that time it was NOT for a contest." The Poet

Conversation with my hubby:

"Dear what day is it?" 
"It's Monday"
"What time is it ?"
"9.30pm" 
"So is it Monday today or tomorrow?"
"Its Monday now. After midnight tonight it will be Tuesday."
"What time is it tomorrow?" 
"Time hasn’t started tomorrow. We have nothing planned for tomorrow. Were you thinking we did?" 
"No, the garbage goes out Monday but its not picked up til Tuesday"
"Yes but I already put it out on the street"
"That my job."
"I am glad you remembered that, but you haven’t done it for a long time."
"Well I will do it tomorrow."
"OK you can bring it in tomorrow. I always bring Tony’s in too. He is ill and Nancy doesn’t get home til after dark." 
"Were is the key to their gate? "
"We don’t have a key to their gate."
"I need a key."
"When you bring their bin in tomorrow just leave it outside the gate if its locked. They don’t lock it usually on garbage days"
"I will go now and bring them in."
"No they haven’t been emptied yet."
"Today is Monday. There is no need for you to get them."
"Yes but its my job to take them out. I must get them in so I can take them out on Monday." 
"Today is Monday. There is no need for you to get them."
"Yes but its my job to take them out. I must get them in so I can take them out on Monday." 
"Ok, I don’t care.  I am going to bed. Good night."
"Dear wake up, where are the pegs that hold the liner in place in the bins?"
"They are on the back patio, I took them off so that the liner will fall out when the garbage is collected."
"I need to put them back on. Its my job to take the pegs off."
"OK"
"Where are next doors pegs?"
"They don’t use a liner, they aren’t messy like us. I am going back to sleep."
20 minutes later…" Dear, wake up.. I need help."
"What do you need help with?" 
"I need help picking up all the garbage off the pavement. Our bin tipped over. There is garbage every where."
"OK. I am coming."

Premium Member He Gave Her a Book

That gold leafed hard cover, that’s what would swing it
She gave him the title and asked him to bring it
Dad always answered to her delectations
And next day he handed her ‘Great Expectations’

Just the right size and just the right weight
An old fashioned read but it should balance great
She tired of the story for so much was bleak
But that tome would serve her well, week after week

‘Learning’ she needs like a hole in the head
She’d wed a rich sucker who’s easily led
But she used to walk like a duck on a bike 
Yet now she has poise that is so ladylike

Soul of a Perfectionist Life of a Couch Potato

Don’t criticise me from this poem 
You’ll understand once I bring it home
I used to love DIY  I was a fanatic
But it took me a long time and drove my wife spastic

She used to curse and say you not finished yet
You’ll end up leaving it half done I bet
I got so flustered it end been true
I could not see anything through

So I’d lay there and would not budge
Watching TV stuffing my face with fudge
She’d scream at me and says get off your lazy ass
Get the lawn mower and cut the grass

You know the saying “you can lead an ass to the water but you can’t make it drink”
I’d lay on the couch staring at the TV and wouldn’t blink
Now I was not this sort of person
But she was impatient and her attitude would worsen

I was a perfectionist in my minds eye
When it came to the thing I loved doing, DIY
Now I lay here a couch potato
Watching her face go red like a plum tomato

Premium Member Bring It Home

Evil certainly plagues our world
Crossing boundaries, on the attack
Unacceptable actions against humanity
There’s no reason to stay silent
There’s no reason to submit
There’s no reason, no reason…
To turn our backs on values
To dampen love that we all need
Be willing to sacrifice
Spread love wherever you can
Build bridges with hearts
Hand another a life preserver
Give empathy where cries are heard
Discover wisdom within yourself
Be guided by light that starts in your soul
To shine on all the miles you travel
For you have a purpose…
And you have the will to choose
Be the light of a city in darkness
Like the stars across the midnight sky
Sparkle like the sun on waves in the ocean
Move with the tides…
Turn rocks with the currents until they are smooth
Reach the warmth of the shore and bring it home

Dream

There's a tea pot 
And a kettle 
Waiting to steam
Isn't this quite familiar 
Like a dream 
Have you ever dreamed 
Of what you could do
If you only put your mind to 
Did you go after it 
Or did you just sit there 
Did you get excited 
Or didn't even care 
Did you think for a second 
Or just use to rejection 
Did you plan this thing out 
It's a reflection 
A reflection of you 
This is your journey 
Live it 
In the end all you have to do is give it 

Dream big 
Have big dreams 
You can accomplish 
Anything 
(Repeat 1x)

People will tell you 
What you cant do 
And what you can 
Dont revise your plan 
Write it down 
Bring it to life 
Get yourself on track 
Get it right 
We all have room 
To grow 
Just need a little life spoken into us 
It's ok 
We need to be watered , we to be grown 
We don't have to do this alone 
You have to support yourself 
Stay strong 
And then the Lord will send the right people along 

Dream big 
Have big dreams 
You can accomplish 
Anything 
(Repeat 1x)

You can do it 
Yes you can 
Just make sure you keep God apart of the plan 
(Repeat 1x)

Dream big 
Have big dreams 
You can accomplish 
Anything 
(Repeat until chorus fades )
