Once Upon a Time (Templates)
Once upon a time
a lonely girl neglected
worked among the cinders,
then with a pumpkin changed
and danced all night, the beauty of the ball.
A beast became a prince.
A fair one, raven-haired,
bit into an apple,
then lay inside a coffin
to waken later with a single kiss.
Plots of sugar spun
meant for our amusement
were taken as didactic;
as visions of a bliss;
for some, like me, as templates for romance.
A frog is still a frog.
A girl who is mistreated
might end up on the streets.
Transformed into a junkie,
she turns into a hooker for her john.
A beast remains a beast.
A girl might pose as blonde
and taste of life’s enticements;
then settle on one lover,
to languorously waken to her dawns.
Modern human tales
scatter my illusions.
As skin neath eyes start sagging,
can hope remain unflagging
as time so quickly leaves us all undone?

Sorry to take it to a darker place, Eve. That was how the theme inspired me
Curling crests cassessing coastlines
backwash bumping beach breakers.
screeching Seagulls squark and scream
mocking maritime merrymakers.
Burning boogers brave blisterd backs
scorched surfers seek shoreline shade,
urbane under umpteen umberellas,
peacocks posed in a parasol parade.
Drifting dunes delight deserted
lovers, languorously lounging, lazily
craving comfort, coveting cool currents.
Hellishly humid, heat hovers hazily.
Spirited siblings, spades spanking
bucket bottoms, bulid
carefully carved chimerical castles,
infantile fantasies fulfilled.
Exposing exiled exoskeletons
turning tide tickles toes,
sun sinks slowly seaward
disclosing dusk's descending doze.
“Heaven on Earth is a choice you must make, not a place you must find.”
~ Wayne W. Dyer
In this enlivening radiance of the rising sun
as a whimsical wind sweeps down
over the sun-dappled trail
it arouses the drooping grass,
weighed down by the morning mist,
to sway back with the heavenly grace
dancing delightfully in the soft breeze;
And the nightly bands of grim shadows
disappear
as the sun rises languorously over
the valleys, dales and the rolling plains.
The day brightens up refreshed
and rejuvenated by the caressing
warmth of the sunbeams….
Lo, this is my home
wherein my heaven dwells!

At the time of ethereal elegance of twilight,
Whenever a voluptuous moon
lolls low on a silvery serene sea
and gilds the canopy of trees,
the hilltops, the meandering streams
and the languorously reclining lakes.
My muse appears to me
from nowhere like a dream,
Like a flash of inspiration
to a muddled mind and
evokes moods of mystical ecstasy.
She glides gracefully towards me
like an elusive wreath of smoke
and gathers me in her embrace
like a silken robe
hovering around me
like a whiff of fragrance.
She appears as a stirring
source of fantasy and vision,
Like the magnificent Northern lights
displaying luminous draperies
on a star-spangled polar nights,
Like a spectacular rainbow burst
after an intense shower
Like a shooting star
Like a blessed apparition;
I take her, as one would,
a reluctant bride
with gentle persuasion
and resilient arms.

She darkly dreams in Anger Valley
discovered shortly and belongingly after
original Fear uncovered
floating languorously downstream
to leave behind red hot footprints
of childhood work
and play
and pray for change,
growing health,
by increasing win/win compassion healing,
Or terror aggressively swims upstream Fear
to warn future past angels of light
against win v lose zero-sum evolving valleys
theoretically coming, climaxing frequent culture
Streams of chronic militarized lose/lose outcomes,
AngryGuilt and TerroristPanic,
predator v prey EarthClimate degenerations;
All regenerate Rapture hopes
carelessly abandoned,
neglected,
dissociated from natural Earth bodies,
disembodied spiritual abstractions
disarray
chaos
Where first generation fear
predicts second generation anger
then moves forward
in ego-defying perpetuity,
self-fulfilling oppositional prophecies,
I can hate you
before you hate me more,
Defiant disorders
jumping from traumatized prenatal experience
into nationalistic militarization disorders
Only left-brain elitist might
takes RightWing defiant reactions
against cooperative democratic
healthy
resilient
resonant
regenerative trust.
OverYang oppressions deny less frightened options
of Left with Right mutual multicultural balance,
deductive historic thoughts
with inductive cultural feelings,
Polypathic integrity,
secular with sacred PassionValleys,
Natural Associative-Grateful Persons
with Ancient Originating DePersonalizing Spirit,

Of Anger is
to enlightened reason
as Fear is
to empowering passion.
“My love you make me as happy and cheerful as a lark.” ~ Idlehearts
Give me all the riches
of the world and I’ll be happy,
I’ll be happy if you get me
all the comfort and luxury,
The finest food
The finest silk
The finest wine
will make me a tad bit happier;
Happiest I would still be
If you hand me scepter and crown
studded with rubies and emeralds,
And sit me on a plush throne
of silver and gold
whiling away my days in the
embrace of a lady, eager and bold;
But,
Look into my eyes with love
and holding my hand
lead me under a gentle sky
to the cool shades of a tree
swaying with the wind playfully
by the river flowing languorously
where the weary birds at dusk come to roost—
And I’ll be as happy as a lark!
In the heat of winter one dreary night
A storm was eager to show its might,
The temperature was frigid outside
Yet it was hot and steamy inside,
Lying languorously I saw her
on a recliner of white satin and fur,
Dressed as the day she was born,
Slick as a snake, glowing like neon
with sweat beads on her bosom and brows
I smothered her with kisses, high and low.
She tasted salty with sighs and moans
So I added some honey with my groans,
Like a landscape with peaks and valleys,
She had lava fields and hot spring galleys!
Was it a union of, ha! Sweet sudation,
Sedition in lovemaking and seduction
Or a wistfully amorous imagination?

“The Ego is a veil between humans and God.” ~ Rumi
I reached out
lifted the veil
and saw to my amazement...
I am He
He is I
Together, we are one!
To us belong
the heavens and the earth,
we summon the sun to rise,
At our behest it retreats.
We gallop with the wild winds
and loiter around with the lazy breeze,
With the sprightly stream we wander
through dales and valleys
and lay languorously
like a calm placid lake
under an autumnal sun
oh, in some remote cove.
My thoughts are mine,
I alone think my thoughts,
I share them with Him at will.
I am one with
the supreme consciousness,
I am the center of the universe--
The eternal soul.

I am the center of the universe
The eternal soul,
I am the supreme consciousness
I am He
He is I,
Together, we are one.
To me belong
the heavens and the earth;
I summon the sun to rise,
At my behest it retreats.
None there is like me
The life I live is mine
Mine is the time to spend and
I squander my moments at whim.
I alone think my thoughts
My thoughts are mine,
I share them at will.
I gallop with the wayward wind
and loiter around with the lazy breeze,
With the sprightly stream
I meander through dales and valleys,
Like a calm placid lake I lounge
languorously in some yonder cove.
Oh, my soul is a wanderer
I yearn to fly high and soar the heavens,
The ability to see beauty in everything
is to know what love is.

To Be Ancient
It is good to be ancient,
As with a vintage of the eternal red,
Sealed for the duration with an aged English cork.
Now youthful impulses hold no sway in the empty offing.
I recall them all, as I have remembered certain dreams all my life,
Undead ghosts from distant tree-lined shores in time,
Strolling languorously in a marshy fetid fog;
Their ancient faces I remember caressing,
Their yearning eyes and doubting smiles I recall seeing,
And the supple lips of some I can still feel, recalling,
The passionate interspersed minutes of unreal time,
Secretly spent, behind concealing curtains and ascending ivy vines,
With no real words of crystalline memory being uttered or heard.
And now, returning from wet membranes hidden insidiously,
Inside the watery swooshing gullies inside my brain,
Old friends and lovers appear again, like in an old film,
As they meander an astonished ancient avenue in single file.
Look at these dead pale girls here!
Girls who once spiraled to the stars in the darkness!
Now they tiptoe by my front window, perfume-scented,
Seeking their simple tombstones in the far graveyard.
