My Pretty Thing

Morning comes
I'm glad to see
time to wake 
my pretty thing

sleepy eye's
yawning sigh
wash away the
teary eye's

time to dress
look your best
brush your hair 
you make me stare

time to eat
time to pray
thank the Lord 
for food today

then it's time to say
good bye
listen to my baby cry

kiss your head 
and promise to
hurry back real soon

all day long
I think of you
my little girl
how I love you

tinker bells
pony tails
ice cream cones
toy telephones

almost noon
time to call
baby wish you
didn't fall

wait till quarter
after three
then my smilling face
you'll see

hate to say
good bye to you
little girl
I love you too

all these people 
bossing me
can't wait to see
the end of day

then it comes
before I know
the end of day
time to go home

can't wait to see
my pretty thing
can't wait to swing
her on her swing

but first I'll find
her a surprise
I want to see
her smilling eye's

then I see 
the Greatest thing
my baby running
straight to me

then I hand her 
the surprise
a little doll
with big brown eye's

here you are
my pretty thing
a little doll
to love you too

just the thing I
want for you
what you give me
i want for you

then you look into
her eye's 
almost made me 
want to cry

little girl come
and eat
then I'll give you
something sweet

come lets go 
to the park
let's go home
before it's dark

then we'll wash your
toe's and hands
send you off
to sleepy land

just before we'll
kneel and pray
God bless your
little heart today

A story and
a lullabye
kiss your head
and say good night

ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE

High pressure, like a huge hug,
we sail through seas on sunshine fun,
Sans a care, in this birthplace of soil.

Ahoy, those troubled seas, doth seed
vibrant blues, of lowest pressure.
A potential whirlwind, of weather,

comes crashing down, to relieve
(often careening) our festivities,
tossing our mortal flesh about.

((((We oft desire to cocoon ourselves,
in lukewarm lullabye, pretense,
of the calming eye of mother nature.))))

I shall opine, and deviate with adventure.
Give me the warm high pressure upon my spine.
Lecture me, with the lows of tempest thunderstorm.

Friend, I will hug you tight,
Lull you to sleep,
Awaken you furiously.

O gentle earth! O rapturous heavens!

Premium Member A Lullabye For Ava

Close your eyes my darlin' girl,
day is done, time for dreams to unfurl.
   
Dream of pretty ponies p r a n c i n g by,
of fairies and princesses as well,
maybe even visit Tinkerbelle.
Dream of having wings to f  l  y
then soar through rainbow tinted sky,
                               up where angels dwell.
                    higher
         higher,
rising 

Angels will keep watch
as you dream your sweetest dreams
cocooned in loves warm mantle.
Sleep, my darlin', sleep
until morning rises fair.
Follow your dreams where they lead.

Premium Member A Childs Holy Lullabye

A Childs Holy Lullabye 
Children crying everywhere
Where is their hope, there're in despair;
Where are the earthen, fathers;
Fly away, butterfly, fly away;
Little boy go to your mother;
Fly away, butterfly, fly away;
Birds in the air, everywhere;
Birds in the air;
Where do they go, dancing in the clouds?
Shaking up the clouds, rustling of their wings;
Making drops of rain fall down from the skies;
God is real, He’s real God so real;
I can feel, I can feel, I can feel Him in me;
My Jesus loves me, I can feel almost see ahh yes, he’s here right here in my heart, my heart;
Little girl don’t you cry;
Don’t know who or even why;
Daddy’s here carrying you;
Instead of four footsteps there’s only two;
Daddy God is carrying you;
Walking through cherishing you;
Holding you, guiding you, there’re nothing He won’t prove;
God is real, He’s real God so real;
I can feel, I can feel, I can feel Him in me;
My Jesus loves me, I can feel almost see ahh yes, he’s here right here in my heart, my heart;

A Forever Wish
Together, with LOVE “ L E N O R E 
ALWAYS  ENTWINING

Hello, POETESSES and POETS I am Honored to Know YOU
I beat in the Light of a new LOVE: The LOVE of POETS on POETRYSOUP
Throbbing in a Serenity ; a Tranquility ; that LENORE’S Heart and I Once Knew
I am  merely Floating in a sea of ecstasy with this wonderful POETIC Group

I pulsate  to the tintinnabulations of this EverlastingDay Two Hearts beat as ONE
As  the percussion section of a symphony orchestra reaching its crescendo : I pound
My host , in his excited demeanor is as soothing  as a lullabye to a new born son
I startled , with the knock at the door “ It’s time Mr. Johnson to MARRY LENORE

The Captain in Dress Whites, the Wedding March plays, the Father of the BRIDE :
Mister Robert Joseph Adams ; walking down the aisle to Give My LIFE to me 
I slowly Entwine with a Heart that beats as I; I leap at the LOVE I see in HER Eyes
Emerald GREEN Eyes sparkle through the transparent shade of a Pure White Vail

“Do YOU , Harry Daniel Johnson take LENORE ELLEN ADAMS  as yours“Forever “
To become one in the Sight of GOD in Mind, Soul , HEART for the eons of Eternity
Beyond the earth YOU were brought forth from beyond the Heaven“ The Glory of GOD
The sound of my host saying “I D O” reverberates in my walls and Echoes in LENORE’S
                                     ALWAYS , ETERNALLY, FOREVERMORE


MOM

Mom
Poem
Lionel Derbyshire

MOM !! 
My first shout out loud...

Where is my metal
When i am weak
Where is my coastline
From the deep...
Where is the fountainhead
Of our parenthood
Her heart is never locked
She rubs my ear
When I fear
And vows to love me
In solemn oath.

Where is my flawless
My entire vital wrap
My loyal guardian..
Who makes me golden.
My blanket when
I am cold..

MOM !! 
I shout out loud...

Where is my trumpet call
In her shawl
She shouts from the hall

Our pact is unbreakable
In my babyhood of
Sore, cut and bleed
She be my nurse.
The jaundice, fever and the pox
She cure's it all away
Where is my night call
The tissue to my cry
My songster so enjoyable
Who tucks me in with lullabye
And hugs me so tight 
As if I was part of her body.
Where is the little
That I know
From the one that brought
Me up to grow

MOM !! 
I shout out loud...

Dad you are a food cart
Your place is high
In the house..
But MOM is my 
My shout out loud...
First hero in this world
And my first cry out for help
Will always be ..
MOM !
You are upside down
WOW !
My triumphant call.

Angelic Lullaby

She  holds you spellbound, tempts every sigh,

her voice sedutive by its lullabye,

Her meaning envoking the unspoken word

Ever tender the call of her lovesong

This angel who thrives on the air of your breath

The movements of her heavenly rhythm


Closer  calls the invitation to feel her rhythm

Succumb to her female sigh

Ever so gently she releases her breath

The gentle sleep of her restful lullabye

Bequiled you fall to the music of her lovesong

With nothing more than the unspoken word


What secret does she keep so closely guarded? the unspoken word

The mystery of her movements swaying to her rhythm

How could a mortal man resist such a lovesong

His resolve given in a surrendering sigh

Returning his words in anticipation of her lullabye

He barely manages to catch his breath


His chest bursting with the urgency to take a breath

Her eyes adoring yet still  there's the unspoken word

Her song intensifys a passionate lullabye

The wind caressing nature to respond in rhythm

His need urgent as he pleads with loving sigh

He know's the ending of this Angel's lovesong


This captivation held by the chorus of her lovesong

How could such an angelic understand yet allow such loss of breath?

Again his strength fails him as he hears the relentless sigh

A language alien yet familiar, the assurances of the unspoken word

Delicately the harps resound the perfect rhythm

As his soul escapes to listen evermore to the enchanting lullabye


The sensations of her sound unbearable as she continues her lullabye

What kind of music is this she sings, this immortal lovesong

That holds a mystery unto itself, the defiance of her rhythm

Still he holds to his last dying breath

As she witholds the saving grace of the unspoken word

And all he can do is sigh


As this lovesong continues to play, immersed within the lullabye

His breath weakened to the faintest heartfelt sigh

Surrendering completely to her rhythm, the beauty revealed, the unspoken word.

When rebellious thoughts screamed
Before the noise of life filled the quiet,
I now recall half-filled moments
Upon edge of spite 
and an angry wind:
Unmoved by parental debates
This heart denied 
pleas of atonement; 
At eighteen, pride ruled
 to cross over the night...
and walking  out  with a backpack,
Feisty senses  burst
 for sweet freedom's trail.

Feeling how  ego scraped my life
As dove cooed of home's lullabye
My heels rushed  back
 with fresh reflection  ,
Gentle air of surrender lingering within
A mistake transformed 
into youth's blessing--
That through some willing desire
I began to wrap my hands...forgive;
Releasing the power of humility.

and  I smile tonight, this arrogance a gift
Which tides me through...
most challenges of adulting.

The Lorilee's Lullabye

Under the crest
of a wing
brushed
by her mane
I knelt 
in her glory
told her my name
when the Lorilee 
did sing
reverberating round
the beauty
and wonder
of the purest sound
hearing distorts
all but her voice
in this 
Really,
I had no choice
Her eyes 
like a balm
healing the soul
mist flowing off
like the top 
of a knoll
divinities beauty
fantastic form
turning to fury
in a 
demons storm
calm though she is
upset her 
I did not
till I knew her more
find out 
whats her plot
why do I feel glee ?
look all around
no sound it
can't be heard
no ending 
can be found
just this 
feeling free
I whisper 
under breath
“Is this Eternity?”

Lullabye


All smelling sweet with powder and of milk
‘Tis time to cuddle in your cosy bed
Mid golden hair that feels like watered silk
Are kisses showered on your curly head

Now comes the hour when soft the lamplight glows
And casts an evening shadow on the wall
Your baby cheeks are lightly brushed with rose
No more the dew from drowsy eyelids fall

So hush now babe there is no fear of harm
To dreamland, drifting slowly, you will creep
The hands that hold you closely, safe and warm
Will rock you gently til you fall asleep

The clear blue eyes in peaceful slumber close
And little baby sleeps in sweet repose
