A walk-in solitude, putting one foot
over the other, stepping over roots
to listen to the flutes of nature lutes
and silent subtle shift that are afoot.
Away from mental incessant chatter,
solace for the fractious mind. A matter
of time, a sense of elation scatter
and the will to feel the fatigue shatter.
A shaded path tucked away in slumber
in surrounding walls of dark and umber
trees, woody vines, shrubs, and beast that lumber
a realm of nirvana in poised wonder.
Sitting on the ashen limbs and trendless
full of sculptured green, wood thrush nest, restless.
In air a reward glimmer of breathless
hope in a grove of balm doth shine zestless.
Treading determinedly upward, the tree
sunshade is thinning, revealing a sea
of cadet blue sky, glorious to see.
Leaving the world behind upon the breeze.

5. A walk in Solitude / Rhyme
If I weren't afraid I'd still turn the lights on to keep the closet monster on his toes. I'd dangle my feet teasing the gremlin "hiding" under my bed. If I weren't afraid I'd throw off my covers and go investigate that noise down the hall. My feet whispering on the carpet my eyes adjusting to the shadows. If I weren't afraid I'd wear my bravery like a shield. My hand resolutely turning the knob slowly opening the guest bedroom door. This is where my imagination fails me the fear of the unknown freezing my synapses reminding me that I am indeed still afraid. But with no other option and no brave knight to save me. I allow no room for errant thoughts nor do I heed the thousand butterflies that have taken flight in my belly. My blankets are flung to the floor as i march determinedly down the hall. No whispering feet this time the silent approach not at all my style
I forcefully push the demon door and with a very loud bang it crashes into the wall I search desperately for a weapon so that I might stand my ground against this deadly intruder. A movement out of the corner of my eye. A scream begins to build a suffocating bubble in my chest. Sassy. Really. With a mouse in her mouth no less. I want to kiss and throttle her all at the same time. I choose the kiss and a congratulations before heading back to bed. Self deprecating humor causing me to laugh out loud. My crazy b#%&* status cemented for now. For it was not courage or bravery that had me marching into terrors unknown. But my damning curiosity that will one day most definitely get me killed.
Let’s please God with our faith* while growing biblically
Showing Christ-likeness believably
Revealing scriptural wisdom boldly
Presenting eternal life blissfully
Exposing heaven beautifully.
Let’s please God with our love while proclaiming His message confidently
Sharing the Gospel and salvation plan capably
Conveying Bible truths for Christian nourishment constantly
Illustrating discipleship lessons clearly
Explaining stewardship blessings conscientiously.
Let’s please God with our joy while heralding the good news of hope dutifully
Informing the lost of His truth’s assurance determinedly
Inspiring the discouraged of the Father’s care discerningly
Persuading the proud of the Spirit’s work decisively
Warning the skeptics of imminent judgments dauntlessly.
Let’s please God with our trust while communicating for Him earnestly
Standing with sanctified posture enthusiastically
Walking according to Spirit’s direction eagerly
Influencing others through good work’s gestures emphatically
Expressing sweet fellowship with the Lord endearingly.
Let’s please God with our sacrifice while delivering His tidings of peace faithfully
Enunciating “Thus saith the Lord” counsels factually
Asserting “Fear not” admonitions firmly
Uttering “The Lord is my shepherd” favourably
Saying “Even so, come, Lord Jesus” fervently.
Let’s please God with our service while exhorting believers gloriously
Voicing out the Saviour’s compassion gladly
Sounding battle cry against sin and hell’s wrath grimly
Instructing with precepts of holy living graciously
Verbalizing the great commission gratefully.
Let’s please God with our gratitude while declaring divine promises habitually
Praising His Deity in worshipping the Trinity heartily
Exalting His name in teaching His doctrines honestly
Honouring His presence in living for Him healthily
Testifying of His awesomeness in yielding to Him humbly.
*Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

The sky ironed out n da' morning divine
On a November day cold
Celestial rainbows born of peeping sunshine
Cloud dreams rush past unrolled
Under the bare leafless trees
Masqueraded hard to see
A bird lands on a branch'y trapeze
Whilst' a gusting humming bird laughs elusively
Yet in that moment prevue
A sparkle of butterflies at glance
Capturing shades of yellow and warm blue
As treetops sway to the wind of dance
A secret life in the windy air
Sultry skies in hues of grey and white
At the moment birds n' butterflies scare
The whole time sky cracking in sight
Pleading in chilly branches above
Whilst autumn boom rumble laughs merrily
Birds n' butterflies lying determinedly in love
O' plunder n' thunder strike with golden symphony
Autumn now sways in aquamarine streaks
Spreading opulently past the stars
As the night revolves the sound of birdland shrieks
End of rainbow, yonder far
~~ode to the fallen~~
I cherish that day he chose me amongst all others.
Attentively I watched him determinedly fight to
climbed o'er his brothers;
once upon a peculiar day I just happened to visit
a vet;
as if he was imprinted on me__even before we'd met.
He would lay across the crest__ high upon my cheek;
and in my wandering absence cry til tired and weak.
As If He knew his time on earth 'twas to be fairly
short;
and he had come to give to me the love I so
desperately sought.
He was an unusually unique puppy loving, eagered
and trusting__
content with his puppy-life; so happy, playful
and bustling.
Strangely exotic was he, thus the reason I
named him Egypt.
Of all the loss endured His was the worst I
had to give up.
For just as his spirits was always high; 'twas
his body badly corrupt.
And so his life wasn't very long, but very
quick and abrupt.
Woe to his little soul that struggled__ all
throughout the night
before leaving and abandoning him in obedient
lonely flight.
I fear his death was due... for duties left undone__
He hadn't fulfill the purpose for that which he had come.
There was more for him to share with me; more he had
to give. __
What a cruel unnatural thing to have happened that
caused him not to live.
I, being still too young at heart, and that of waning virtue
lacked the force of fortitude to know what was best to do.
Only to pray hopefully__ with all my childish youth
which innocently only caused me...not to face the truth.
Outside of my secret wishes__ 'twas not a single
word spoken
and sadly enough he passed away; mournfully so with
both our hearts broken.
Succulent strawberries slide off the vine in front of appreciative robins
The smell of fresh cantaloupe wafts in the warm July Kansas air
White tailed deer have wandered up to eat my juicy yellow apples
Yard alive with fruity fragrances that have replaced May’s lilac aroma.
Tiny almost indiscernible moon is slipping away, sun glides gently into view.
Kind neighbor brought me fresh peaches last night, delicious on ice cream.
Gather thirty stalks of rhubarb, determinedly head toward my raspberry patch.
There will be fresh cobblers tonight with cinnamon and sugar on the top.
Crow gives me a severe scolding. I have not thrown anything his way yet.
About noon I will throw out a few split open strawberries for the butterflies
A monarch and a dragonfly flit past me. My garden is more alive than ever.
Is that watermelon ripe? Wow! I will collect it on my way back to the porch.
Jonathan studies at Huddersfield New College,
A BTEC in sports development and fitness,
He has Charcot Marie Tooth as his baggage,
Which by physiotherapy has a tight harness.

Of Huddersfield Leisure Centre extensive,
With Kirklees Active Leisure’s team happy,
To measure his swim performance active.

And was born on the 16th of June in 1998,
He enjoyed swimming from the very first stile,
At age eleven when has dad took him, fate.

He began to internationally compete in 2014,
At an International Meet in Glasgow’s mire,
Where he became Youth Champion well lean.
His closest friends on squad ParalympicsGB,
Are fellow swimmers James Crisp, Josef Craig,
Lewis White and also Matt Wylie who all did see,
The lights of Rio: Jonathan came fifth in plague.
Serenity. Is this an unrealistic state of being
an imaginative state that's deemed to be utopia
Is serenity achievable in this crazy world
determinedly hellbent on maintaining dystopia
Serenity an emotional state of being
deeply enshrouded by feelings of much love
Through the heart, stimulation
by divine messages from above
Serenity is this a state of being
oft confused with solitude
Or is it when community abounds
serenity oozing gaining amplitude
Solitude not always a recipe for serenity
an active mind many thoughts are buzzing
Alone and disturbed, perhaps
much swearing and associated cussing
In the soul the serenity vessel is proportional
when the vessel's full of love
Serenity, no space for angry emotion
when the vessel's full of anger
No serenity no space for love devotion
Serenity is it only when the soul
is surrounded by creations of nature
Many birds are chirping, soak up the warmth of sun
the scent of many flowers all raise a joyous stature
Serenity a harmonious state of self loving support
Engage the mind in meditation serene visionary thought
Serenity it's an individual call
what brings about one's calmness
may not apply to all
Serenity released embrace the blissful soul caress
Dear Muse,
sometimes
you are dull, senseless,
paralyzingly, protractedly mute.
You determinedly adhere to the dancehall wall,
no magic spell conjuring
when melodies swell;
instead, you seem repelled by the score,
whether upbeat or quiet.
Limp, lifeless limbs refuse to be lifted
to perform,
lend shape to the theme,
your mouth does not open to give me
words that will live on my pen,
you disdain to even begin
but are sepulchral, voiceless,
stifled.
No stimulation stirs,
imagination is dormant,
static,
seemingly dead.
I inhabit the dance floor alone.
Sometimes
you are a ready partner,
we blithely dance the night
with effervescent steps,
ethereal,
fast or slow, we go
circling the gleaming floor.
You, so stately and steady,
shape me to the charms of your tango or waltz.
My gown drifts,
lifts with the spell of movement,
turning and spinning or sensuously drifting,
bending me to your elegant flow.
The music you choose holds me captive
crescendos and quiets in turns,
it yearns and yawns in my marrow,
burns like a lover desiring release.
Emotional waves sweep my psyche,
feelings that never knew names,
flames and ices tormenting,
beauties and wonders transcending.
Ink swirls drape on pale parchment
birthing images
like caged birds of exquisite plumage
once freed
soar with wind in their wings.
