Long Michaela Poems

"Auric Obsidian - The Face Clean Behind the Gun"


You drew me into your new world, 
the corridors of your mind 
fitted me perfectly imperfect 
into the portraits pegged onto your wall 

an unsuspecting target

I pay homage to a special group
Our ladies here on Poetry Soup

I shall start my list with mother Beer
A Lady with whom I hold so dear

Isolated, closed door, evil stare...
Trying to get out.
How do I get there?

Uncertainty, disgusted, let down in compressed air...
Trying to make sense of it.
How do I get there?

Faithful friends, truthful in what they share...
Trying to absorb...

How does one pick a single soul in a field of Flowers?
God would find it rather hard with all of his powers

There are so many beautiful people as we all know
I’m finding it rather impossible...

I have heard angels fly on golden wings
And I believe they do
Doves represent the purest form of love
And I suppose that’s true

Sweetheart there is a simple fact
That I wish you to know
The beauty of both...

Another blessing on another day
Just another chance to pray

Pray for what, “Well lets see”
Everything the Lord does for me

Not to mention what he does for my wife
Praise be to God what a wonderful life

Facing life...

I have recently come to know
A special lady who reminds me of myself.

For sixty plus years ago in school
It seems I did not fit in 
There was the I'm better than you group  
And...

In snooker there is but one rule
To play your best at the crucible
Professionals play under extreme pressure
For the crowds joy and immense pleasure



Fifteen reds set up on the table
Potting away at different angles
Six different colours...

As I looked upon my Daughter Michaela it was clear to see
Two big beautiful blue eyes were looking back at me 

When I got home from Prison and she was 5 days old
Speaking of holding...

I felt so rejected, alone and sad
like an abandoned puppy left to wander a street
it was then that I realized, that my life was real bad

Many a tribute is written
Only the writer knows why
The reason I'm writing this
He could have been goodbye
 
This Bakersfield boy
Smith Corner he graced
To lose his mother at 4
A young soul misplaced
 
Loving Grandparents
Filled an empty...

I was so sad I was about to cry
When she appeared in the corner of my eye
Being carried gracefully by the wind
I believe she wanted to be my friend
She had rainbow wings and big brown...

Along time ago just the other day
I saw a magic horse who flew my way
Well all in all jackpot in hand
It flew me off to a distant land
A place where the Land meets the Sea
We...

I was walking in the sunshine
With nothing on my mind
Searching through the memories
Trying real hard to find
To find that certain memory
Buried underneath the dust
Then I heard myself say
"In you lord I trust"
I felt a certain...

I am so happy you are my father’s wife

Michaela is the sweetest girl, glad she’s...

But For You

You tagged me 
And said such nice things
I’m at a loss for words
Perhaps I need to call for help 
Won’t you help me choose
Joseph S., Carol B., Tami M., Stella S.,
Mike J., Vince...

Whatsoever society's expectations of me, myself and I
 and my predestination of what may be spoken
 damaging my,  handwritten on one's wall as regards to
 My character and intentions are depicted often turned

A gentle word like a spark of light,
 Illuminates my soul
 And as each sound goes deeper,
 It's YOU that makes me whole

 There is no corner, no dark place,
 YOUR LOVE cannot fill
 And...

To hold you close, to have you near,
to have my breath, against your ear. 
Whispering the words I long to say,
to show you my passion, in that special way.

The loving, the kissing would feel so...

Maggie my friend, I'm back again
My squirrels are frozen in their den,
I must not be as you say,
Or they'd not be frozen in today.
If I shined I'd go to New York
And peddle it for more...
