"As early morning thunderstorms"
Bring down a pouring rain
All of nature is silent~still
Snuggled in nest remain
As early morning's lightnings flash
And thunder above rolls
The covers feel comfortable
Deep within my soul
As early morning's cold rain pours
Like Morton Salt today
Your embrace consoles me my love
The Dove is here to stay
Like the dew glistening this morn
Your love sparkles and shines
"As early morning thunderstorms"
Melts this soft heart of mine

Form: Poulter's Measure
Placed at the foot of the mountain
Thunderclaps and lightnings
Treasures buried in the zenith
A journey no man doth dare
One foot forwards, three feet back
Raging winds and biting frost
Coated in the smut of the snowy beasts
Bathed in the blood of conquests lost
Still he places each step forward
Relentless. Tenacious. Dexterous
Foot planted like the oak tree
Majestic in the dust of the enemy
With each step, he moves forward
Balls like steel, he refuses to yield
Drained of the blood of his humanity
Filled instead, with the guts of a billion men.
Still he moves. Each step forward.
Thunders like the neighs of a million horses
Cut with the edges of jagged winds
Covered in an avalanche of ice.
Yet he moves. Courageously.
Crawling like the desperate viper
Each step now like a plea to the heavens
Groans like a woman in labour
But he moves nevertheless
A shock to the distant stars
Making the sun shine in cheer
And the sky to dance in tears
Till he reaches the top.
One hand placed on the treasure.
A man, unknown, reaches the zenith.
Relentless. Tenacious. Victorious.
Desert Dance
Innocent, these sand dunes wait
Under cloudless, starry skies
Unenlightened of their fate
While moonlight dances and belies.
Silently, upon on a dune,
In silhouetted shapely form
Baton in hand she taps a cue
To hail a scene long waited for.
Stout winds rise now for the West
The dance begins in pure blue light.
Seizing each blunt element
She pulls at them with all her might.
Soon every star is given rout
Obscured by clouds as black as blight
All must obey to carry out
Her every willful wish tonight.
With purging sheets of pelting rain
In unrelenting feral might
To pummel hard upon the back
Of every single thing in sight.
The thunder growls bombastic songs
To lightnings jagged blades of light
And all have waited oh so long
For such a tumult as this night.
But once exhausted, meek withdrawal,
She leaves the stars their last few hours
Till nothing’s left of force and squall
Except a sea of desert flowers.

(Blackout of Psalm 29 by Isaac Watts)
Benign Bliss Burn
The kindling catches where opposites meet
light shadow bitter sweet the indrawn breath
before the plunge my ribs crack open like a seed
split by its own green urgency this is not death
but something rawer the body saying yes
to its unmaking watch how fire gentles
what it takes the way August burns the valley brass
and still the grasses bow grateful every particle
remembers its first fusion that stellar Yes
before the cosmos learned the word for No
So when your hand finds mine in the downpour
when the charge between us grounds and grounds again
I recognize this the lightnings tender violence
the hearts insistence that all breaking is a door
we are the rain becoming steam becoming rain
each form a forgetting each forgetting deliverance
The blaze says soften the wound says more
and breath by breath I learn the ancient discipline
of burning without smoke of heat that holds no scorn
of standing in the fire until the fire is worn
What if He appears
As the trumpet cheers
With a train of angels
When judgment labels;
Will you hear that saintly sound?
What will you be?
Mortal forever, or immortal eternally?
Where will you be?
At the bar, the club
Or in the Church?
What if He appears
The Son of Man
In heavenly adornment
With lightnings and all glory;
Will your life attract that call—
To stir you up unto Himself?
Will you fit to sing in the light's space?
Or are you sure to enter into that palace?
What if He appears
With all power unto Him
That upholds and withholds
The devils' ancestry;
Will you, if being dead, resurrect;
And if being alive, rapture?
Or, I see, you may have fallen short!
What if He appears
In His Royal Majesty
As the scriptures said
Of that certain day
Will He say “depart, I know ye not!”.
Are your ways right?
Will your soul cry or sing for joy?
Where will you stand?
On Hell's soil?
O’ the faithful saints shall stand on Heaven's rock!
God does time fly!
Psalms allm ssllaay yyai!
Doesn't it seem as if we have never been?
There was now another thing accepting us?
Like we were fluids?
Drunken fluids that is comparable to these standards-
eruptions!
The fault in the crust going to kill us ever after even though we don't know us-
we are decent folk
but always clone,
but where oh where to say we went home?
I know of distance and poke,
I know of wrongful god and soap,
I don't think you know though-
where the strikes at heights find lightnings to bite,
where there are stations upon their masters of relations of separations that don't adhere,
nor guide us-
live in Gobe-
central Amazon,
People finder.com for the good one's who survived...
I loved her, expected her yonder,
but became far fetched and the flogged bogger...
It was so longer than she respects-
it was faulty as the next,
and then they said let's bless this ...
He spoke to Atoms in the night.
"Come together and let there be light!
Neutrons and protons "Bond for Me!
Electrons come, make Me the Sea!"
He sprinkled stars into the night.
To fill His children with delight!
He reached into the rich earth sand.
And there created His first child Man.
"Just one child!" He said "Won't do!
I desire to have a daughter too!"
I made a Garden where you can play.
From there you can talk to me everyday!
No matter what you say or do.
I am you Father and won't forsake you!
You will suffer from a disease called Sin.
Our Father and child relationship will end.
Hang in there my children, I'll make away.
For us to be together again someday!
My Son from heaven will sacrifice.
He'll shed his blood and give his life.
The only thing you have to do,
Is believe and admit he did it for you!
If you choose to ignore Him and deny.
You will not be with me, once you die.
There is no love greater than Mine.
I will forgive you, no matter the crime.
Talk to Me on that "Spiritual Phone"
The one called "Prayer" I'm always Home!

Green is my Love, and all she touches, blossoms!
And from her fingers, golden flecks appear!
Green is my Love, her lips always Truthsaying,
She does not even know the name of Fear!
Green are her Eyes, as dark as moss, as agate…
And from her heart floods forth the Healing heat!
Green was our Love, whene’er Life took her from me
And Green the way on which, Life set our feet!
Green was the night, when came the spiraling winds!
And from them, blew a whistling, like a train!
Green was my strength, when I held her sash, long moments,
But dark swallowed her and tore my heart in twain!
Green my good-bye was, pale, and wan, and thin,
And from my eyes, cold diamonds, frozen, fell…
Green, all I saw, shadows weaving, all about me
That day, I knew the surly name of Hell!
Green were the demons that tried and tried to stop her.
All that they did failed heartily at the end!
Carried her off to the ends of sanity!
Up, up in the sky, where the merciless lightnings bend!
Green is my Love, now all she touches, flowers!
And from her fingers, golden sparks do flow…
Green is my Love, now, lies in her Presence, wither!
And from my Heart, like a lark, she’ll never go!
