Long Contentedness Poems

Why does dawn dress robust morning,
while dusk undresses sight?
Each dawn incarnates another Earth Day
a lifetime of Easter mornings 
redeeming nocturnal sight's revolution,
another therapeutic day of gift-it-forward light,
some longer,
some shorter 
before naked covered night.

Why life?
To uncover...

Why people hurt people? Why we do hurt?

We do hurt people because, we get hurt.
We do hurt people because of; foolishness, selfishness, greediness, 
Jelousness, enviousness, dis-contentedness, and evilness.

We punished people because, we our selves are...

Four legs quiver
like clumsy cabrioles
striking smooth gray rivers
of zig-zag sidewalk barrios
in rhythm with happy shivers
syncopated on a muffled drum
as we talk and stroll

On our way
hand-in-hand
we persuade and pretend
this day away
taunting and cajoling to demand
laughing “hide...

My spiritual APATHY has

Crystal clear, your deep blue green
Provoking peace around these waters serene. 
Near you my hysteric anxiety can find its peace
And the internal screaming of this mind might cease. 
I have found you help settle my...

COFFEE IN A CAFÉ CALLED CONTENTEDNESS

He’s content…….
Yet uniquely unrepentant 
He’s content with his surroundings
Content to do that which he must…….
With trust

Content, 
occasionally, 
to do something he actually enjoys
With poise
I suppose ninety-six years tempers one’s desire...

A SOMBER SOMEDAY

Someday
someday when blazing blonde turns to grievous gray
yes someday
someday when the wonder which once was has patently passed impatiently away
someday
someday when joyful leaping is replaced by reaping muscles that ache
someday
someday when graceful grins...

She cried somber tears with each sad suicide attempt, 
      delirious due to drunkenness as dying is what she dreamt.
Each catastrophe callus, ungrateful for her creation,

Some, 
Not accustomed to my mental strength, 
Say to me; 
You were brutalized and terrorized
Humiliated and traumatized
Yet you smile and speak with dignity, 
You walk like a dignified giant-
So I say to them: 
I am...

In the sun-blanketed town square 
the young family pause and rest:
young father, young mother, young child.
They are just starting out.

And a good start, it would appear-
happy father, happy mother, happy child.
Happy little world:
the elements of...

Blessedness
Love's a serenade that never grows old, 
a melodic harmony of the soul.
Quote poets own 
There's a light that constantly beams
From Heavens heart o’er Earth it gleams
Thrilling one's soul with blessedness
Charismatic contentedness.

When we find our...

TAKE A PAGE FROM THE AGE OF THE AGED

She comes here very often, I suppose because it’s more than worth her while
The gray haired lady who cares for someone who’s hair is even grayer
When the...

Why did you send her?
Was she some sort of test?
As visions of her dance through my head
A silent scream erupts from my chest

I had life figured out
I thought I understood
I was content
Everything was good

Now that...

One time they say "dream big"
Next they say "lower your expectations"
A lush fig tree without a fig

For an ignoble vessel can rise to be noble
Therefore gratitude must...

He is simple and kind to me.
his touch alone makes my body speak.
Every kiss is our wishful bliss.
He tries to wrap and tame me.
I cry out from my screaming.
I'm warm to his cold body and...

OPPOSITES DETRACT

Our lifestyles are miles apart
So why would you want my heart?
We don’t think at all the same
I liked you so much but your refusal ‘tis such a shame

Can  you imagine both of us...

If we wake up contented each day of our lives
fulfilled, successful and satisfied;
With all of our triumphs, laurels and wreathes

The lost warmth has been revived 
yes! the one lost in the winters behind

Just a touch of stress, so I burn. 
The day has been a mess, so I burn. 
The scorched leaf lingers after the burn. 
Holding regret in my fingers after the burn. 

This cloud is...
