Three and twenty years ago
Terror rang its awful bell
In the midst of New York City
The great and tall twin towers fell

Slammed by hijacked liners
Deviated from their flight
Took our independent nation
From the day into the night

Thousands died there on that day
At the Pentagon we lost
A field in Pennsylvania
Also added to the cost

There was no nation there to fight
These were terrorists with dough
Billionaires had funded them 
What to do, we did not know

We went to war with countries
Targeted Iraq, Iran
To make it even better
We fought in Afghanistan

For over twenty years 
We sent our soldiers over there 
Many killed and wounded
And our fighting more than fair

 Since we did not fight the country
But the terrorists within
We could not hurt the population
To damage them would be a sin

There was no way to win the war
We finally pulled out everyone
The terrorists took over
Now its worse than when begun

We are protectors of the world
Have been since World War Two
Give of ourselves to everyone
We should try out something new

Trillions of dollars is our debt
From giving everything away
We borrow bucks from China
Who may own us one fine day

Communism and democracy
Capitalism one and all
The ones who have the money
Will cause the other ones to fall

We've donated to our allies
Just to keep them as a friend
While our own go cold and hungry
Which has come to no good end

The USA's our country
Home of the brave and free
A promise land for citizens
That's including you and me

We welcome here most anyone
Who contributes to our way
Terrorists and criminals
Cannot be added to the fray

Our borders need protecting
Not to let the bad ones here
There's a qualifying  process 
For rejecting when they're near

We all need to pull together
Or we'll lose this once great land
Nine Eleven is still with us
We must address it hand in hand

World Mental Health Day

In the morning, the first rays of sunlight,
Broken hearts healing, fears taking flight.
As we open our eyes to a beautiful sight,
Taking a rest, our bodies sleep all night.

With the excessive burden on your mind,
You have to self-care and still grind.
Mental health is not to be celebrated one day,
It is a daily work that brings peace our way.

Instead of using cell phones, take out a book,
Fascination and interest will make you look.
Today, let us honor our soul’s fight,
That fights daily, and still remains alright.

Let’s get to know about each other,
Telling our issues, not hiding our pain further.
Peace of mind will come when together we stand,
Rising together, bringing hope hand in hand.

My Beloved, In Love's Embrace - Part - 6 - Valentine's Collection - 2020

18.
We share a time of loving grace, 
each night, love’s dream we do replace, 
yet still, within a moonlight space
We behold, a mighty, green expanse, 
where we shall share loving romance, 
once more we shall share our love’s dance. 

Our bare feet kiss the cooling grass, 
as we do share love, we amass, 
the posts of true love, we do pass.
We look into our midnight sky, 
the mighty stars shine from on high, 
sentinels, watching where we lie.

We shall both lie in love’s embrace, 
together, in love’s moonlit space.
19.
Together, in love’s moonlit space, 
we shall both find love’s own true grace, 
of us, when night is gone, no trace.
We are but a most tender dream, 
sharing our love in moonlight beam, 
a love, tender and supreme.

For you, I always sing my praise, 
our love shall be for countless days, 
and we shall love in many ways.
Within the night we take love’s chance, 
upon this green, we take love’s dance, 
I find your grace, in one small glance.

You are the love I do adore, 
we do belong on love’s own shore.
20.
We do belong on love’s own shore, 
where we could stay forevermore, 
we walk across a stardust floor.
The starlight glade is love’s own scene, 
I walk with my Valentine queen, 
our hearts are feeling so serene.

Through the glade, there does run a stream, 
where we shall lie within this dream, 
you are ever my own love’s theme.
Together, our love, it shall sing, 
you and I are everything, 
to the glade, all our love we bring.

We ever enter love’s own door, 
I love you to my very core.
21.
I love you to my very core, 
you are the one that I adore, 
the one that I shall give all for.
And still, we are within the night, 
Luna does shine down Heaven bright,
here, you are the beautiful sight.

Hand in hand, we both walk along, 
our hearts are singing love’s own song, 
in starlight glade, we do belong.
I lay my heart before your feet, 
tonight, we stand before love’s seat, 
you come to make my life complete.

We share all the love that we store, 
love is divine, never a chore.

Premium Member Sixgun Sids Day In Court - Mildly Bawdy

[For the uninitiated or for the inebriated
Or because I fear my story might be underrated
I feel I should advise you using any fact that fits
That Sixgun Sid has wooden legs and other wooden bits.]

                      ****

Sixgun Sid stood in the dock and swore he didn't know
Why ladies didn’t like his wooden member down below
He said, “Some things go hand in hand with rocking to and fro
That’s how I left a splinter where a splinter shouldn't go

“She dragged me in the shrubbery and took me there and then
I thought she was euphoric when she squealed out loud but then…
I had a smoothness problem as your witness has attested
And so I grabbed some sandpaper… and got myself arrested 

“I’ll swear before this court she was all over me that day
But then my wooden legs etcetera made her stop and say,
‘Why can’t you, like other cowboys, just shoot from the hip?’
But then she spent ten minutes pulling splinters from her lip.”

The judge said, “I have heard enough, my judgement will be sound
You shared your love, but also, she was putting it around
I think that I should send you to the gallows with your lover
But I’m concerned those gallows might turn out to be your brother.”

If Autumn's Here, Can Spring Be Far

I

An eve it was heralding a full moon, 
The sky milky white with a dash of grey, 
And then a hint of an isolate ray 
Announced that moon shall greet the night nigh soon. 
The hearts seemed hardly there in evening walk, 
Most of the trees around were almost bare, 
The autumn’s mild chill loomed all over there, 
She too felt that futile it was to talk. 

Both desperate for break or a breather, 
O walked in circles, blind as led by blind,
Their thinking heads, whilst seemed not quite inclined, 
Tried to tie up still stray thoughts together. 
And a willing heart wished to carry on,
If that stretches on till the early dawn.

                               II

They walked till early dawn on hard gravel, 
And yet both felt, it was worthwhile a walk
In tune nigh with their wordless silent talk, 
Unhurried though and quite inaudible. 
And what a miracle O of the heart,
A few feeling moments tended to power,
What might a lifetime’s love in no time sour,
Pull them together, else push them apart.

Yet, when homeward, and this time hand in hand, 
The moon was nearing night journey’s high noon, 
It was as if to bless them with a boon, 
Each had rediscovered a lost old friend, 
If autumn chill is here, can spring be far? 
Not quite, some chills are good, winked a far star.

Do You Remember the Song?

Do you remember the song
The one
From the time 
When we were young,
and so was the night
That echoed from our stereos, 
We used to lay in a bed of sand
Under a chandelier of stars
hand in hand
Your face
Under the beautiful pale glow
Glistened
You know you were the
the lighthouse to MY heart
During a time
in my developing years, when things seemed dark

Do you remember that the long strands of grass
That seemed to stretch and sway
How your love seemed to take me away,
Ocean birds scuttled across the shore, and the seagulls soared

Whispering secrets, giggling and Hiccups 
Lost into the mist
First love,
Is the essence of Innocence.

Do you remember the song?
The one we would  play when we were young
When we believed we were untouchable, jesus we were so strong.
When Faith in love, brought forth the courage
To make believe we were gods
No matter, together we would face the odds.

I remember the song,
But sometimes, you gotta face the dawn.
And the tumultuous
Ocean can have an agenda of its own

Sometimes, You have to change the radio station


and find another song.

Premium Member A Magical Love Concoction

Giggles and happiness
Go hand in hand
When you're head over heels in love
We giggle like a teen
At our first love scene
We discover girls are so nice to hug

Can't think of a thing
I'd rather be doing
Than smooching till the first light of dawn
I'm starting to tremble
My cheeks all aglow
As I tell you I've loved you for so long

These three simple words
Will have to suffice
I love you, I love you, I love you
That's nine simple words
I counted to nine
But numbers don't matter, so true

Mind's turned to mush
Can't get enough
Of your magical love concoction
Please never stray
Think of you every day
You take me to your world of seduction

Premium Member Proud Star of Bethlehem

Dance we now this Season’s Eve
around the radiant pine , a  starlit dome
robed in lace and gold finery—
while we circle through it, hand in hand,

lanterns  burn as  intentions  are done
with a promise of warmth among all men;
to allow forgiveness to be our balm
as trimmings glitter like moonshine;

A Babe’s manger lays near this evergreen
granting our jovial  family godly peace,
while lights  beyond shimmer of love
that in fondle of colors , kin’s hearts embrace—

Standing  quite nobly , an  outline glows
the proud star of Bethlehem  atop holly’s crown
bringing back Dad and Mom’s Christmas rites...
that gladness of our youth, we now pass on
unto  our children this beloved  heritage,

with  Magi star on the tree  flashing a psalm...
'Blessed be , Merry be! '

Premium Member MEMORIES IN THE SAND

We visited the Sugar Sand Festival on Clearwater Beach
where we saw sculptures in the sand.
Sculptures created by professional artists celebrating
a time when dinosaurs roamed the land.

As we viewed the sculptures so magnificent…so wondrous and grand
we were reminded of a time with our children and grandchildren
when we built castles in the sand.

Ours were not professional in any way…our little castles in the sand
created using little plastic shovels and pails and packed down with our hands.

But to a family on the beach who saw not with our eyes but with our hearts
they weren’t just castles in the sand…they were impressive works of art.

The more we walked through the sculptures rising majestically out of the sand
the more we drifted back and forth between a time when dinosaurs
then children, then grandchildren roamed the land.

And once again we realized as we walked together hand in hand
how life slips by so quickly just like dinosaurs…
children growing up…and castles in the sand.

We shared a bittersweet moment walking in the sand that day
On the one hand sad that so much time has so quickly slipped away.

But so thankful, happy and excited on the other hand…
for having had the chance to make so many memories in the sand.

Midnight Dream

midnight dream 

 I awoke from a midnight dream, where love, hope , and faith, was the only thing seen
 where people gathered as a people under one god, one world and children sang the praises of god above explaining about peace and love.
 where all you saw was their spirits rising high into the sky. showing us all reason and whys. 
 where the elderly walked hand in hand giving thanks for all they can as some of their memories may slip away , but thankful for each and every day.
 where people enjoyed and gave thanks for the fruits of life , such as the birds that fly on high, the sun, the moon up in the sky, and every storm cloud that brings us the rain, refreshing the earth and us the same .
 for giving us the animals, plants , and trees and the oceans, rivers , lakes, and streams and the mountains up high, leaving us breathless where all we can do is sigh.
