No Poet Monster, No Killer of Dreams

There is no poet monster and no killer of dreams.
Some people have imaginary visions, or so it seems.
All the trolls and bullies are gone, except for one,
who continues spinning webs of lies, never done.

No poison snake slithers inside these poetry halls.
No toddler antics committed, but for one who bawls,
crying out about leaders on lists, not being humble.
Boo hoo and hiss, with a pen this one does grumble

With references to "him" and "his" it's plain to see,
the one being slandered stands when he has to pee.
Bitterness runs rampant through veins of cold blood
and malicious words pour forth in an angry flood.

It's a shame this good man has been falsely accused,
but his mind and spirit remain unscathed, not bruised.
His soul is not empty and many call him 'my brother.'
Acrid words don't hurt him when penned by another.

Mildness is a virtue he shows many, without a doubt.
He doesn't look down on others with a haughty snout.
So, Milt, I am proud to be among those you call 'friend,'
and pity the one who besmirches you, trying to offend.

Premium Member Enlargment

I have poured out my heart      like water
But only those understanding      will see
I have laid the grief      of the children
before the King      appointed to be


I have studied      each fragile connection
and the way      that men hurt their own
the shield and the scars      sealed deeply
and left too many hearts      without home

 
Slave to traditions      and teachings
don’t taste      don’t touch      and don’t care
Ten thousand things      that you shouldn’t
of ideological     stoning beware


But none can follow      examples
of courses      they don’t understand
but let’s flay them alive      with blazing
and their lives      let’s mark with a brand

 
When learning     you to walk upright
when  you fell      were you beaten and shamed
if just now you are learning      to do right
is it just      when you fall to be framed


In the gentle stillness 
in movement softer than a breeze
pictures of their future
the rest of man at ease


And tender are the Words
that coax the fragile shoots
whose mildness alights 
the growth of goodly fruits
 

Your promises have held me
and voice mine ears carress
in delicate expressions
which avows your loves address
 

You have drawn us with affection
with persuasions clearly pure
assurances of a truthful pledge
of a love that will endure
 

In earnest is your bestowal
the announcements of your speech
in readiness to accomplish
to divulge the heart you teach


The essence of your compassion
the ardor of your intent
the center of our being
to its enlargement are we bent


We waded through embankments
and rivers did we ford 
sought for the precious things
what is the Truth of Lord


You are the Sun the Moon the Rain
the energy that creates growth
the spirit who supports all Life
and to save it given oath


We will forever turn to you
and happily throw our crown
prostrate in humble gratitude
For the Love within have found

Its Over

I love the way you smile like a little child..
Having her little balloons and stuff..
I love the way you ate your m&m's
Like we had this candid tandems
Just suddenly..
Words ponder as much I don't understand at all
Feelings abandon, lies still in
You left red thorns in my cabin
Beseeching, crying, as much as I do
And until..
Can I pretend that there's no you?
Invisibly holding your hands like stitches of this heart of mine
Burnt easier like colorful smoke in the air
And now, chasing the mildness of this calming water
Reflecting our years had spent together
Possibly people change by the moment they realized..
It's over.

My Global Panorama

I always did fantasize about our diverse earth;
Its freezing stones in the fridges of the Arctic and Antarctic landscapes.
The idyllic playgrounds on the quiet sands of the Mediterranean Sea banks,
The amazing sun baked plains of the smoothened Sahara brown,
The tropical Haven of humid air, where the golden sun awakes in a fair and bright morning, and sets at even with its magnificent crimson smile.
What a cozy feeling can its temperate climes bring; with its sheer abundance of Clement weather.
A paradise indeed of ambient mildness.
I long for the warm gardens of Eden’s residues, with their ebullient and lush tropical green.
How pleasant it would be to cascade down the many waterfalls in an imaginary and wonderland fashion.
To go atop the zenith of each mountainous heaven from which pinnacle point you have the panoramic view of your own vanquished plains.
I once disappeared into the wind, in a midsummer night’s dream to see my global fantasies come true.
And like a boisterous eagle,
I glided high to the heavens for this global and utterly delightful bird’s eye view.

In the Eyes of a Mother

In the eyes of a mother, 
She sees...
Beauty,
Mildness,
In her innocent child.
She sits, 
She thinks,
Nine months of joy?
Then she looks.
How she was given...
Nine  long months is what it took.
Until she could see her baby boy.
In the eyes of a mother...
In her eyes,
She wants him to believe,
She is very wise.
Only thing she knows is art.
For him she will be smart.
For him she will make a new start.
In my eyes,
I am young.
I am mature.
I just want his life to be filled with love,
So pure.
Praying everyday, 
Every night,
Help me raise my son right.
In my eyes
He is the only site.

War

In my head a war is raging
No agreement, there’s no pact
Anger wants to be the leader
Rule my thoughts, and with no tact

Then comes Conscience with his reason
Something must be done, and fast
Quickly he sends for Discernment
And hopes this tension will not last

But the latter leaves him waiting
And the waiting took too long
This was not supposed to happen
What ensued, was bad and wrong

Anger whom got all the madder
Started spewing gall and hate
Conscience tried real hard to stop him
But alas, it was too late

Anger didn’t even bother
In his fury and his rage
He just swore with sheer abandon
Like a lion in a cage

Conscience quietly endured this
He gave up, he spoke no more
He just waited till Discernment
Came and walked in through the door

And he came, but with companions
This shook Anger through his spine
Never did he think Discernment
Would show up with an extra nine

Peace and Kindness, Faith and Patience
Goodness, also Self-control
Mildness, Joy, all these were present
They all tried to reach the goal

But the situation worsened
Anger chided who and what
But it didn’t take much longer
’till he wished that he had not

Because Love now started speaking
With a voice strong like a gong
Everyone now stared at Anger
Who now seemed a lot less strong.

Premium Member Ode to Autumn

How spectacular your crisp, cold colors,
Autumn dear, your bright & brilliant hues.

The fruition of success & failure, previous;
Culminated countenance of consequence.

Bold can be those leafy reflections from bud
To crown, the readiness to share the Fall.

It was your choice, Autumn dear, to steer
Toward perfection or depression, in trial.

Do you gather your bundle around your feet
Fretting and frenetic, leaves wet with despair, or

Do your colors gamble about like a wooly lamb,
Reminding the young of a rainbow’s halo?

Do you fear a latter season or let go your shapes
With holy anticipation, excitement at your fingertips?

Slow bustling of the wind, gentle shake of limbs;
Creative hustling, vivacity of freshness let loose.

Lovely your perspicacity and personality, sparkling
With a thick accent; nay, the dampening of dour

Spirits, fretting at losing your springiness, your green.
Wake up! Shake up your dreams! Youths love

Your rain, your jewel carpeting - they walk in
Your footsteps; enhance the next generation

Not with mildness, but with potential, using
Every bit of your wit and wile, your future hope.

Brighten those smiles with every shake of your head;
Even your baldness, crooked and ancient limbs.

Dear Autumn, you leave room for new sow & reap;
For coddled and courageous seed; newborn buds.

Autumn, less is more, more or less; nonsense
We don’t speak; no madness of spectral tongue.

Serendipity as pumpkins dance with flaming eyes,
As grand mas and pas blink back their yesteryears.

Three wholesome cheers for oaks, maples, even
Evergreens; for every tree that participates in life

And death on earth, rebirth, sentience, flirtation.
Live well, this latter season! Be tested! Thrive!

Appalachian Dawn

I have a passion to hold a lamp aloft,
to capture one acre of starshine
before the sun writes a new dawn.

Rusting Chevys bloom in the half-light.
Nightjars depart on shadow wings.
Shimmering’s walk toward my window
on silver slippers.

A native mildness calls me out
to the green hollows
where poppies cling to secrets.
I’ve a yen to lean like a greening barn
that’s honeycombed with sky.

The dew bathes, hills run with deer.
The woods hold aloft their nocturnal dreams
while the sky turns those to mist

I am invited to be kin,
to the verdigris of millstones,
to the mist and blood
of feuding legends,
to the weather-worn
secluded places

where dirt roads end
and life proclaims
its right to be free.
