An Imposition

Destined, 
Not predestined. 

The difference is polar, enormous and is mammoth, 
The imposition weighs heavily, leaves you in sloth. 

I choose my own fate, 
To open the receptive gate.

I don’t hesitate to contemplate upon the states of others, 
Because I can help to change their fate since they are my brothers. 

I belong to my family, my role models, mentors and my friends, 
And I belong to myself, and have ordinary life with its own ends. 

There’s no future time of pleasure, there’s no heaven, 
We must let ourselves how the now, and be believin’. 

Set yourself up as right, fair, loving and as enough, 
And don’t bring upon yourself the imposition, the god stuff.

Premium Member Belief in Our Nation and Way of Life

Belief in Our Nation and Way of Life
By Kevin Davis, 2025

Raised to honor our land so free, Respecting the Constitution, a pledge to thee. 
In eighth grade, a test we had to pass, A lesson in the values that would last.

The efforts of the framers, arduous and bright, facing oppression, they fought for their right. 
Defeating their foes, two sacred documents they made, to serve the common needs, their vision displayed.

The Bill of Rights, the Constitution, clear and grand, to ensue no single belief could rule this land. 
Democracy's essence, the power within, vested in people, political control to win.

Cooperation, deliberation, self-governance, we seek, Fair elections, protecting the future we speak. 
Leaders accountable, to defend our precious way, For dignity and freedom, each and every day.

Never were our leaders ever to be a king, But defenders of our way they must bring. 
If they fail this, courts were established, to fairly interpret so we are all protected.

The Constitution and our Democracy were intended to continue for all, throughout eternity. 
So, if like me, you love our country, tell those elected that we must be totally free of rule by only one entity
.
To support and defend the Constitution always remain, Against all enemies, foreign or domestic, 
Bear true faith and allegiance to the same. The oath taken freely when entering office or service— 
We all should keep and never refrain.

Love Hints

I was trying to be fair
Hiding all my fragile tears
From a man who didn't seem
To notice all my future dreams
Magazines of pretty brides
Tuxes, suits, and fancy ties
Romantic movies on date night
Love songs playing in the night
Pointing out rings in the store
A man I will always adore
Oblivious to all I want
Even though I've tried to flaunt
Signs on front of his blind eyes
That I want our heartstrings tied
Together for now and always
Maybe adding extra foreplay
Will entice him to begin
A day of really noticing
We were meant for one another
When he's near I start to shudder
With excitement and the joy
Knowing he's my sexy boy
Even though my wedding day
Seemed to never come my way
Until one morning he was there
In his eyes were lots of tears
With a ring and bended knee
He took my hand so shakily
A timid voice and loving speech
Now were lying on the beach
This honeymoon will always last
The hints I gave him in the past
Joined us forever till the end
We'll always be best of friends

Premium Member She Taught My Heart To Sing

Spring has earned a special place in my heart:
a season so fair,
She dispels despair.
And I anxiously wait for Spring to start;
for craving her touch,
I miss Her so much.
I long for the sensual perfume She'll wear;
a blend of sweet-smelling flowers and fresh air.
She taught my heart to sing.

At this time, Spring is no more than a wish:
no reason to cheer,
She is not yet here.
But She's such a tempting, delicious dish,
I can hardly wait:
and circling the date
on my calendar: I'm counting down the days.
Whiling away the hours in a thousand ways;
She taught my heart to sing.

Winter winds are finally in full flight
as snows melt away;
Spring is sure to stay.
As sunlight stretches Day and shortens Night
ice-free rivers flow,
while Daffodils show.
Nature dabbles the landscape in tints of green:
while the air's invigorating, fresh, and clean,
and tweeting songbirds, add music to the scene.
She taught my heart to sing;
I love that about Spring.

Wems Henry Temmy Psalm 23



My imperfection
I have found your correction
A pure affection 
That kills featured objection
In Thy protection

He is everywhere
In my cheers, the best He fair
Found Him in nightmare  
When staged foes come unaware
My all cum true care

My deficiency
Meets mighty proficiency
And consistency 
That awakes my dormancy
Midst emergency 

He is everywhere
In my cheers, the best He fair
Found Him in nightmare  
When staged foes come unaware
My all cum true care

High agility
Yet needs His fertility 
My Ability
Needs His versatility
Cum nobility 

He is everywhere
In my cheers, the best He fair
Found Him in nightmare  
When staged foes come unaware
My all cum true care

I turn out a clown
Whose company isn't lockdown 
Even when letdown
I will be there for the crown 
Grand is my breakdown

He is everywhere
In my cheers, the best He fair
Found Him in nightmare  
When staged foes come unaware
My all cum true care

With my canal crime 
Supposed period of wartime
Covered by salty grime 
Daring Aging sole enzyme
Crushed in its prime 

He is everywhere
In my cheers, the best He fair
Found Him in nightmare  
When staged foes come unaware
My all cum true care

I have found Your love
The one as mild as a dove
Though, darkness dare shove
But, all are subdued thereof 
For me, His belove 

He is everywhere
In my cheers, the best He fair
Found Him in nightmare  
When staged foes come unaware
My all cum true care

I am of the light
Though, shake up by raging fright 
But grace won't alight
From my tight persuaded flight 
Rather boost my height

He is everywhere
In my cheers, the best He fair
Found Him in nightmare  
When staged foes come unaware
My all cum true care

Even when I go
His love is my amigo
Playing a bingo
Hands for Him I play bongo
Yet, never let go

He is everywhere
In my cheers, the best He fair
Found Him in nightmare  
When staged foes come unaware
My all cum true care

Premium Member A Wrap

A WRAP
Something is wrong
With this so-called nation
They hold in esteem
The villains of this occupation
Something, is wrong
with their thinking;
The people in this nation;
Have turned against the victims
Taking sides, with the predators.
Somethings, gone awry,
Something, is not right,
Murderers, get protected
Scammers, get protected
Pedophiles, get a free pass
Wrong is the new right.
Radiation, has cooked the brains.
Radiation in the soil:
Wi-fi in the schools
Acid is, in the rain;
Nothing is the same –
They have all gone insane.
The conscientious,
take the blame.
While unconscious
people get excused.
Nothing is fair-
Something is not right –
Even the children are not safe.
Seems that evil now rules-
This is a nation of fools
Radiation in the food.
Serious, something serious,
Seems like a bad spell
This is a serious situation:
This nation is not well.
Wrong is the new right.
Radiation, has cooked brains
Acid is in the rain;
Nothing is the same –
So- called leaders,
Have gone insane.
They are hiding everything-
Nothing is done in the light
To many secrets and lies
Those who are willing –
Are Not able –
and those who are able,
are not willing.
“Oh, say can’t you see”
Tumorous fish in the sea.
Something, must be done –
The time has surly come.
Perhaps; “It’s a wrap”,
America, and the
World’s inhabitants.
” Are finished” “As in done”!

Premium Member SAFE IN HERE

I was wearing my tie-dye rainbow colored hat 
in the bookstore the other night…I’ve worn it a lot this year…
when a lady came up to the counter and said,’
“When I saw your hat through the window…I knew I’d be safe in here.”

It’s fitting as I’m writing this…that I’m walking in the rain….
why is this important…let me take a moment to explain…

There’s a reign of terror falling from our skies
that, unfortunately, generations of people have felt before…
A human-made reign of terror that yesterday…
found it’s way into our store.

You see there is a blatant disregard for human life…
for what is fair, unbiased and just…
and it’s difficult, while it’s raining…
to know who we can…and cannot trust.

As with open arms we smiled and welcomed this women into our store
I couldn’t help thinking of the Native Nations, people of color
anyone who is feeling…or…who has felt this way before….

And I was glad my little hat…that’s been my lucky hat all year
played a part in letting this woman know there was nothing she need fear.

When terror is raining down…with so much out of our control…
when we see it hardening so many hearts…and infecting so many souls

It’s up to us to walk tall and bravely through the rain each day…
to do our best tot stop this reign of terror from washing our world away

Perhaps the best that we can do…until this reign of terror is through
and the light of truth, kindness and justice once again appear…
is to provide a place where people can say…
I know I’ll be safe in here.

Premium Member Cotton Crowns

Upon their granite, sculpted brows,
A chiffon ballet swirls and bows.
Cloud-scarves drape, light as a sigh,
Where mountains, aged and stoic, lie.

Feathers of heaven, soft and white,
Escape the nest of day's pale light,
Tangled in peaks, a playful tease,
Whispered secrets on the breeze.

Cotton castles, stacked on high,
Guarded by giants reaching for the sky.
Sunlight paints, in fleeting grace,
A masterpiece on Nature's face.

Ballerinas, light and fair,
Dance against the mountains' stare.
Shy mist clings, a child afraid,
Of open sky, and sunlight's raid.

Ships of air, on wind-tossed seas,
Navigate where giants please.
Rudder clouds, in currents deep,
Around the mountain's rocky steep.

Whispers carried, secrets told,
Through pine and rain, the story's rolled.
Sunbeams pierce, in dappled grace,
The mountain's rugged, timeless face.

Drumbeats rumble, deep and low,
Thunder's voice, where shadows grow.
Mountains watch, unyielding, strong,
As clouds sing out their fleeting song.

In this canvas, vast and grand,
Nature's symphony plays at hand.
From whispers soft, to thunder's call,
The mountains hold it all, in all.

So stand we here, where shadows play,
And watch the clouds dance out their day.
In every twist, and every hue,
A mountain's tale, whispered true.

The Joining

(9/7/12)

Three different women - three different cases
All gave birth to satin and laces.
One black, one oriental, one white
What they had in common was they all
Gave birth the same night.

The BLACK child was six pounds  three
Brown eyes and as beautiful as can be.
The ORIENTAL  child was five pounds nine
Jet black hair and looking fine.
The WHITE child was eight pounds three
Blue eyes, blond hair, skin fair.

All confined to the same ward and about five feet apart
All loving mothers with the kindest of hearts.
They all talked for hours on end
And made a pact that they would remain friends.

To their surprise they all lived close by.
Every weekend their families would get together
And it seemed that life couldn’t get better.
And every year on the girls birthday
They’d get together to celebrate.

NOW ! The point that I want you to see
Is if they could do it, WHY can’t we?

Why can’t all nations put aside their bigotry and hate
And join together to celebrate , just what GOD has given
And make this life on earth worth living.

Election Turmoil

Waited patiently in lines to cast the vote
The turnout was expected; patience was tested
Uneasiness, hungry, and tired enough to be tempted
To leave the line, but frustration heavy in tote

Some feel it was not a honest fair win
Ballots were burned prior to election
Should there been more ballot protection
Oh well, candidate chosen with a jovial grin

Just pray this candidate is honest and true
A lot of talk of what is needed in this nation
Many voters are celebrating with elation
Some voters will continue to be sad and blue

Everybody will not be happy no matter the circumstance 
Its the fate of the political experience for voters
Both parties campaign hard with ads and funny posters
Switch. Different party, its like the nation qualify for a refinance.
