The Highest Peak For Me Is the Element of Praise

the highest peak for me is the element of praise 

every disappointment is a gentle kiss from the most incandescent star 

my forward motion stays inspired by the truth within the divine uplifting 

to be truly blessed is to fly freely without the effect of meaningless outcries 

instead of missing the ignition, i focus instead on the pictorial impact 

with that inspiration i face the day newly renewed 

the freedom that i feel today prevents my mind from being force fed endless fodder 

the contentment i feel prevents my mental from being overtaken with life’s stresses 

when the rhythm of time performs indecisive enactments in my vision’s ear, i brainstorm 

each session is a thought provoking lesson, and the humbling is a necessary reminder 

i take a closer look at how the gold converses carelessly with the silver 

i take a deeper observation at how the sun cooperates with the moon 

what i ingest is a phenomenal excursion into a magnificent quietude 

the vibe of it all inspires a rare smile usually ever so shy 

i wish i could take the antonym’s siblings with me 

i wish i had a way to make them and their many relatives and offspring understand 

however all i can offer them and whoever else are ornamental, yuletide wishes and greetings 

as well as the most sincere hope that somewhere, someway, and somehow that i have inspired 

A SMILE!

Premium Member Blue Fire

I'm back on the pub stool
In the darkest corner
Flickering the flame of a lighter
Even though I don't smoke

Dressed in a polo
Blue and black
With black dress pants
I'm a studio lion

My home away from home
It's just a different place
Offering a different loneliness
Than what I know at home

And I look around
To all these happy faces
I could be a ghost
Never noticed

Maybe it's for the best
I'm a little inebriated
And I'm not good with people
Even when I'm sober

Alcohol makes me even more introverted
And even more introspective
Intrinsically interested in interloping
Insane incandescent informalities

Don't pity me
Don't even think of me
Not that you would
Not that they would

Loneliness is a disease
Infecting every part of life
And when married to anxiety
They procreate and birth depression

I wanted sympathy
At least I thought I did
But deep down
I wanted someone to care

I'm just a Debbie downer
Downing alcoholic beverages
To make me numb
Unfortunately I feel everything

But this is just a chapter
And if my novel ends before anything changes
What a waste it'll be
I'll be the best friend nobody had

I'm back on the pub stool
In the brightest corner
Roasting alive in blue fire
To the tune of apathy

Ben Stokes Stoic Martyr and Heroic Firestarter


Dare to dream Ashes nightmares it seems reawoken

Token words spoken after scares & flares teams broken 


Dafter peacocking then rocking no blocking just shocking

Mocking laughter of the ghost of Christmas future knocking


Host boast from coast to coast toast as England roast

Boiling..recoiling..toiling & broiling this is our last post


Our iridescent flaming proper copper haired laird

Incandescent flairs no taming his despairs we all shared

Luminescent cares blaming Bazball heirs ill prepared scared 


Stoic brawler our defiant mauler on a leaking reeking trawler

Too reliant on our brilliant defiant resilient glowering giant 


Big Ben set up camp crippled by his men again & ripples of cramp

Overpowering pain courses through every vein towering skipper & champ


Heart on his sleeve…makes us believe in a reprieve heroic Firestarter 

Immensity of intensity.. O Captain my Captain..our smarter martyr

Joy of the Lord

Joy refuses to hide or wear a disguise
 Bouncing brightness – bliss on springs;
Dances on tiny toes of fiery flamencos
 No colorless embraces –knows the steps;
No shadows of grey in its cloak
 Only shades of clearest light;
Incandescent transcendence of perpetual motion
 Never slumbers – never needs a nap;
Always nascent nativity 
 Breaths renewal Son powered battery;
Inventor of jubilation - Hallelujah ecstasy –
 Gloria elation -Praise euphoria;
Benediction of merry mirth
 Speaks beatitudes of delicious delight;
Glee on wheels – rocking and rolling
 Merriment like twilight candle light;
Clowns around with hilarity
 Pals around with happiness of the moment;
Radical hospitality not a fleeing ghost
 Permanent wave – permanent eternal smile;
Never absent – resonating generosity
 A little craziness of an upside down emoji;
Stares down petulant, whining faces
 Welcome mat always out;
Enthusiasm invades invasion of jocularity
 Happiness revolution resolution;
Pirouettes in peaceful promises
 Precious plentiful pearls of shining wonder;
Taps on windowpanes with eternal enrapture
 Always available to dance;
Unrestrained tail wagging exuberance
 Springing up with blinking lights – can’t wait to bless;
Bright eyes tickle the deepest marrow
 Strength tousles somber cores with joy:
Joy inhales moments of transparent gladness -
 Exhales a sparkling galaxy of glimmering satisfaction!

Premium Member Nine Ways To Care For Gods Creation

In May, as we honor Our Blessed Mother Mary, Jesus’ first
and most important Apostle as Queen of Heaven and Earth, let us also focus on how to care for God’s creation. Everything in the worldbelongs to God, and our job is to care for it out of love for him and our neighbor. Try these easy and low-cost ways to care for God’s creation:

If you are interested in birds, put up a bird house in your yard
or neighborhood. More habitats disappear each year and birds have fewer places to nest

Limit the use of chemicals and pesticides in your yard. They
may be harmful to birds, wildlife, and pets

Wash laundry in cold water. You’ll cut energy bills and find
that most clothes are just clean.

When hiking or walking outdoors, stay on trails, keep dogs
on leashes and avoid sensitive natural areas especially during nesting season.

Dispose of oil and other toxic materials properly. One gallon
of oil poured down the sewer can contaminate one million gallons of fresh water.

Replace one incandescent light bulb each month with
energy-efficient compact fluorescent ones.

Reduce the amount of water your toilet uses during each flush
by placing a jar or other closed container full of water into your toilet tank.

Collect rainwater from gutters by placing containers at the
end of each gutter. Use it to water your garden or neighborhood landscaping.

Give thanks to God as the Creator at mass. Our worship of
Him will make us more aware of all God’s creation.

Waking Up At Dawn

Waking up at dawn
with incandescent lights
on my subdued frawn...
receding to warm sheets;
recognizing the petrel's flight
with the hawks pursuing it in delight,
while spiders hang on dusty webs
and the incessant thrush sings...

Waking up at dawn
with sunken eyes,
not wanting to meet sunlight;
a little morose,but gladsome...
I glance at the maples,
submerged in intense light,
as the wagtails tap
on my  moist window
to greet me with a cheerful chirp...

Waking up at dawn
with departing lovely dreams,
I grope uncertainly amid visions;
no full moon rises above the bright horizon,
and with no night passion to inflame me:
I reckon another inevitable aspect of reality...

Distressing Calls of Discontent

Distressing Calls of Discontent 



Distressing calls of discontent frowning upon my brow 

Convalescing with the fall of a malcontent who was too haughty and proud 

Coalescing in forms of consequence that are meant to be spoken out loud

Blessing the tall deliverance of being alone among the crowd



Interjections of circumspections for those crossing the civil lines

Mass contentions of introspection as we search for the divine 

Condescensions from such pretension that it stupefies the mind

Predilections of inventions that are formed from those who actively look for what they find 



Revolution from inside the homes of those who cant afford to pay their rent 

Evolution of a Darwinian theory that Creationism circumvents 

Convolution of a weary postulation that’s going around inside my head

Pollution of a planet that refuses to create a carbon dent 



Microscopic elements under review for replication 

Biopic relevance of a relative who is patiently genetically awaiting 

Some myopic recognition of the claims that they are steaking 

While I’m off the topic I’m still reeling from the borders that I’m breaking 



Incandescent reflections that imbibe a lucid dream 

Convalescent infections that permeate a populace to scream

Illuminesent interjections of light from the purity of a single sunbeam 

Reminiscent of collections that are above the creation of a common theme



Musing always soothing my mind while ceasing the debate

Grooving all the time while I try to syncopate 

Perusing all these ethical crimes that make one want to incubate 

While using the refine to give and remain hesitant to take 



Ammunition for another war that transcends national borderlines

Intuition used only for the expansion of mankind 

Premonitions that abhor everything but the expansion of the mind 

Nightly visions that store it all across the passages of time 



The End
Form: Rhyme

The New World Disorder

A month into the war, caught by the wheels of
disinformation war, I feel maimed and blinded
by the extraordinary news reels feeding my 
immense sadness and grief.
How many more Ukrainians will suffer before the
month is over? Will their national treasures survive
the relentless onslaught?
We who suffer the torments of big power politics, 
their cold and incandescent power, trapped by their morgue-like media,
defend and die for the truth, while the young conscripts
suffer their frostbites in a senseless fratricide war.  
A new world disorder awaits in hellbound future,
where might makes right, and right and wrong is settled
in the battlefields' lecture halls.

Premium Member One Last Rose

glanced at one last rose in my garden!           
                              deep crimson velvety petals - 
                     incandescent as luminous horizon at sunset,           
                      mystifying as the shadow of amber clouds 
                 glowing as the colour of my pulsating, fluttering heart ~ 
                   at the delightful thoughts of being with my beloved. 
          
                       
                 summer is leaving ~    
                              magical rose bush almost abandoned...  
                                              one last flower
                                      bursting with radiant hues, 
                                    still smiling a ravishing smile ~         
                                       last dance of a ballerina ~ 
                            a jubilant performance of a creative soul, 
                                before the curtain finally drops and 
                      the performer fades away with a departing bow.      
                  reminding the inevitability of separation, decay and death. 
                  

                                       It is alone and lonely...
                           swaying and twirling on a brittle branch 
                                  final witness of the rejoicing,          
                 I see the solitary beauty, bravely waiting to join its clan.....          
                       I will wait to see the resurgence of a new bud ~         
                                    I will wait, and not despair.
