Premium Member Agape

Agape 

I float in the inspiration of your charity Lord,
Your intimate whispering fluent through living water
Touching thirsting shores of drought
Waiting open mouthed for billowing water
Flowing from Agape.

I float in the inspiration of your charity Lord
To sink into warm depths of your passionate prayers
Your tender path out of grieving exile
Your hopelessly romantic heart
Flowing from Agape

I float in the inspiration of your charity Lord
Invading every vein and channel not pierced like arrows
But seeping in through a soothing infusion 
Reflecting the sunrise of Heaven
Flowing from Agape

I float in the inspiration of your charity Lord
On gentle swells of crystal angelic adoration
In reverence for the healing of the nations 
A balm from new leaves scattered tenderly  
Flowing from Agape

I float in the inspiration of your charity Lord
Near trees nourished by the River of Life
Metaphoric essence of the river’s source
Going down into a gently swirling playful Ludic
Flowing from Agape

I float in the inspiration of your charity Lord
To rise up among orange petals of Agape
In your greening open hand Storge love 
Abiding tender amity for brothers and sisters 
Flowing from Agape

I float in the inspiration of your charity Lord
Gathered neither in timeless vaults of starlit realms
Nor still wandering in dark dusty chaos –
An invitation to be bathed in sparkling splendor
Flowing from Agape

Premium Member A First Date

‘Twas a mellow evening overseen by a crescent moon
A ludic breeze playfully lurking above miles of glittery sand
A zillion stars out in full bloom commemorating a late June
I remember as if yesterday how you nervously touched my hand

In an awkwardly charming way you were so chivalrous
I loved the stories you shared with a childlike innocent heart
Time evaporated casual and content in a way most unceremonious
Our souls affectionately melding as one right from the start

Looking back now makes remembrances so endearing
Years have been most generous to you and I in every way
From that tense genesis every hint of skepticism disappearing
We’ve grown closer and couldn’t imagine another now to judgment day

Two compatible souls inexplicably attracted
Intertwining hearts forever connected

Premium Member The River Agape

The River Agape 

I float in the "inspiration" of your charity Lord,
Flowing from Agape -
Your intimate "whispering" flowing through living water
Touching thirsting shores of drought
Waiting open mouthed for billowing water
To sink in the warm depths of your "passionate" "prayers"
Your tender path out of grieving exile
Your hopelessly romantic "heart"
Invading every vein and channel not pierced with arrow s
But downy feathers
Reflecting the sunrise of Heaven
In feisty "courage" for the "healing" of the nations 
"Reflecting" in the leaves falling tenderly
From the trees nourished by the River of Life
Metaphoric essence "home" of the river’s source
Going down into a gently swirling playful blue Ludic
To rise up among orange petals of Agape
In your greening open hand Storge "love"
For brothers and sisters 
Gathered in your timeless vault of starlit realms
Or still wandering in dark dusty chaos –
An invitation to float as one body Agape.

Premium Member Memories In the Making

Forty million stars aglow
Neath a midnight satin sky
While a dark sensuous serenade lurks
Astride the breeze in ambush wantonly 
The temptress moon suspiciously hangs low

A magical atmosphere
It sets the tone for romance
Love’s breath is in the air infectuous
As arm in arm by the seashore we stroll 
Breathing in the chilly seasalt freshness

Love’s slow dance voluptuous
Pure youthful and unblemished
Detonating carefree exuberance
Glitters glint with every ludic footstep
As the moonlight sprinkles her magic dust

Forever eternally
Wishing time could just stand still 
Divine perfection in every moment
Tonight’s unparalleled emotion shared
Frozen to be remembered for all times

Timid smiles turn to kisses
As two hearts entwine as one

Ludic

English is not a language 
one can ever get ahead of--
there are just too many words! 
Like 'ludic; for example: meaning
playful, in the sense of spontaneous, 
without real purpose....Soooooo,  
how come I never came across 
Little Ludic in over sixty years 
of reading hundreds of books
in my beloved mother tongue, 
the language I love, 
the language I married.

Even spellcheck never saw it, 
or else why underline little Ludic 
in red, like a criminal of some sort 
who needs a good sorting out, 
a spell in word prison perhaps? 

If one but takes the time to look, 
one can find sweet Ludic laying low, 
hiding quietly in the BIG FAT ONE,
the Oxford Dictionary! 
Lord and Regent of all word books. 

Ludic  lives there with his cousins:
Ludibrious and that stuffed shirt, 
Ludibry, and the handsome,
macho Ludrico ( who is no doubt 
from the Italian side of the family) 
and of course, the far more famous 
Ludicrous, a celebrity who seems to 
want all the spotlight for himself. 

Words can be so very selfish too....

Premium Member I Become Lost In These Lazy Days

i become lost in these lazy days
the ones i have learned to allow
sitting here on the balcony
watching the frigates glide to Bolero
below a content ocean, empty beach
my attention was broken by a Tropical Queen
butterflies in pursuit of drams
vases rose, yellow, orange, purple
a squirrel scampers across the banana tree
below, kittens in ludic behavior
practicing top dog, the sun bears down
iguanas abandon the roof's pinnacles
for the trees and the shade therein
it is time for siesta, i am tired
this morning the children and i
were playing warfare in the yard
my cane magically transformed into a rifle
i am learning again
what i was once an expert in
a child amok in the fields of imagination
tomorrow i may take out the beach towels
and supermen will fly the patio
or stealth ninjas having hidden in the bamboo
till at last mother calls and it is time for siesta
and as does the wise old iguana
back we crawl to the nature of dozing
there was something i had to do
however, the myoclonic jerk has begun
lay down and drift away
even clark kent needs a respite
from the chores laden world

marbles
i forgot to buy marbles

   Miramar    94   The Patient Stones
and this begins my first year of sobriety....playing marbles in the streets, learning the basics of the language...

Premium Member Massacre So Self Inflicted

A ripe body of Adolescence, nuzzled by beauty
on which hair is polished by crystals and sapphire
but lacks in the garrison of virtues and patriotism
becoming blind to the significance of its own felicity.
So gullible  is its owner, that Dorian Gray is her preferred suitor,
so false are her choices like bringing Tilapia to Canada to strive.
Protracted human disasters have not altered her Oestrus
yet barren even with the plethora of fertile males
she's an ignorant keeper and owner of a unique talisman
causing a huge surveillance from selfish sugar daddies.

In the midst of her turmoil, she stays ludic
inflicted with so much pain but cry so rhapsodic.
Swimming with the fast in pretentious avocation
entertaining in self deceit, through every dulcet move.
Well formed mouth without a beak and limbs with soft knees;
her metamorphosis should be complete, yet a chrysalis she remains.
A complete turnaround requires an economic Hasidism
for the existing gross mediocrity to be evanescent
then refined existence in juxtaposition between an idyllic present
to a radiant future would be once again fully established.
