Wet morning
Misty tear-jerker;
Dark skyline contours
~~~~~~~~~
Beyond this bridge
A new town;
People escalate
~~~~~~~~~
Cold and wet
Dreary morning sky;
Rain re-decorates
~~~~~~~~~
Espresso dawn
Tired eyes split open;
Caffeine surge
~~~~~~~~~
Work on words
Verbal collage;
Emergent light
~~~~~~~~~
Poise renders voice
Style happy smile;
Make moments count
~~~~~~~~~
Dreary dream drains
Play puzzle plain;
Grief gathers gain
~~~~~~~~~
Thought greets feeling:
See beyond sight;
Wise words work well
~~~~~~~~~
Feel sure miracle
Live sure purpose;
Glimpse fond sights
~~~~~~~~~
Blast of cold air
Sudden spine shivers;
Rain drenching
~~~~~~~~~
Feel stillness here:
Come to know truth;
Only love endures
~~~~~~~~~

Young men of wrongful courage and conviction,
seem to plague our beloved nation.
Many of them do not successfully complete
their high school education.
Without any proper guidance from Jesus Christ,
They have no inner voice of conviction in
their troubled young lives. They seek the
wrong passage ways. Death and violence
becomes their entire world.
Without any proper sense of what happens
to be right or wrong, most likely they
will decide to become gang members before
very long. Their families and their communities
sing mournful death's songs.
They arm themselves with knives and guns
along with other methods of massive destruction.
Their imitation into gang life, often involves
the taking of innocent lives. The streets
of their cities are crimson red with
human blood.
Revenge killings of rival gang members
seem to escalate. Death without any
honor is their ultimate fate. Decent
society members need to rescue
these young outcasts before it
becomes much too late.
Love in Christ Jesus

Tall Bougainvillea stops me, to my surprise
The neck and shoulder dancing in the breeze
To cool my head I need some ice
I refrain as frost would rob the look
All my boats rock in the current
Bougainvillea show is overwhelming
It is spring in the veins and arteries
Excited birds are chirping crazily
Aroused flowers escalate heart beats
Velvet tickling swings the existence
My whole universe belongs to Bougainvillea
Waves rock the firing granules
I look for and find a decrepit house
Bougain follows me with mesmerizing smile
Flooding my streets and narrow lanes
Seated by its side, I get hypnotized
Now arrives the enormous rush
Magenta, purple, orange and yellow
We combine them to make a bed
Lay on it hope there will be no tomorrow

I saw Nazis march yesterday
upon the streets of Charlottesville.
And, with swastikas on display,
crazed clansmen chanted blood will spill.
I saw Satan grinning with pride
at racial slurs shouted in hate.
And, bigots standing by his side
help the violence escalate.
I saw torches light up the night,
snaking through the black neighborhoods.
And skinheads looking for a fight;
all that was missing were white hoods.
I saw white supremacists, proud
of drawing blood and spreading fear.
And a car plow into the crowd,
its intentions made all too clear.
I saw President Trump place blame
on both sides for this killing spree.
And, a shocked nation reel in shame
at how prejudiced he could be.
I saw the projected end of
tolerance and democracy.
And, mantras of hate replace love
with smugness and hypocrisy.

Intimate cushion of your embrace
Eyes open and cocoon was just a farce
Elapsed moment a dream
Present abode like any other place
Absent mortal impression on sheets unwrinkled
Madeup lodging, your absence more pellucid
Arrogance, an escort to rising phoenix
To other's sensitivities, response less jumbled
Swamped in syrup of shattered illusion
Alas, intelligence in shade of celestial govern
Sequences escalate, wisdom unsanctioned
Streamlines quill in a marathon sea of expression
Awaiting the echo of love
One's choice worthy despite your defiance
For even though seems like eons
Still young, vehemence of one's emotions
A taste of air, par horizon
uplift
my heart
dispel
distress
cast off
despair
begone
music tingle

my disquieting
thoughts
Finally my blood began to coagulate
When you stopped doing what I hate
If not, expect the most unpleasant state
Of things from lightest to highest skate.
You should never ever be late
Whenever you invited me for a date
I’m a girlfriend who’s impatient to wait
My boredom is always at the zenith of rate.
Usual lines played like songs from Kate
On ears of her most devoted suitor, Nate
But, biggest surprise suddenly came in crate
Carried by young men marching from the gate.
Men with all kinds of roses started to sate
Her doubtful heart making his proposal to escalate
A wonderful rite performed by each of his mate
To win successfully a wife, cutting their late dates’ fate.
Dear Santa
You see Santa,
In just a few days it would have been my brother's 30th birthday
Would've been a big celebration
Instead I will be spending it alone
Lost in all kinds of thoughts and emotions again
angry
heartbroken
crying
Missing him even more than you can imagine
You see Santa
I never said goodbye to him that day
I never told him I loved him that day
BECAUSE I WASN'T HOME that day
My guilt still burn it hurts more than ever
Sometimes I wonder if he was mad I wasn't there
And that escalate to another level of guilt
So Santa
What I'm asking you is
If you can deliver a message to my brother
Please tell him I wish him
"a Heavenly happy 30th birthday"
And that I love him forever
I'm sure he's having a big white Heaven's garden birthday party with all the Angels
Tell him I can't wait for when my time is come, we need to have a serious chat about our promises to be the god-parent to each other's kid... what's up with that!
Well I'm just as happy I can't ever have kids in this physical world without him being the god-father
Santa,
Please bring me back a message from my brother
I need to hear it...

During a cold winters night on a dark and lonely road
When no hope is in sight for there is so much owed
With the sky now falling but the bottom so near
There is the One who is calling and His voice is so clear
When death has struck and tragedies so soon befall
With only bad luck it feels like you're losing it all
Everyday being full of dissension now taking it's toll
His Name you only need mention and He will comfort your soul
With the enemy closing in and the battle seemingly lost
Oh my how your sin has come with a terrible cost
Seeming only to escalate as disaster is now so commonplace
This is not the time to wait in asking for God's Saving Grace
With so much now upon you and no where to turn
What are you going to do when will you ever learn
He is drawing you near, Jesus is calling you back
For He holds You so dear wanting to give you all that you lack
His love for you so profound it fills the Heavens with glory
For you He will ground as you read about His story(Bible)
Begin noticing His loving words to you as each day you have grown
And you too will know it's true that we never walk alone
