Long Mitigates Poems

A promise mitigates so many cares
Perhaps we should address one example
And just trust that its truth will be ample.
A secret shared whose recipient swears
“This matter I’ll keep under lock and key”
And silently begs, “say you’ll...

Is there any largesse you can think of
That mitigates someone who hates
Into friend that might love for a lifetime?
And what possibly matters but God’s love
When minds that are rigid blame fates?
Where’s the reason to coax,...

Good earth styles
Fine ample grass;
A fine raiment


Sun and rain speak
Splurge fond refrain;
Rainbows echo


Dawn flings 
Shadows drowned;
Awake to birdsong


Man-made park
Forest architecture;
In the city


Journey here
Begin within;
Greet the sea shore


Waves splashing
Jetty promenade;
Fishing trip moments


Offshore boat ride
Temple pilgrimage;
Kusu Island...

Noah's PR seems quite fragile; I'm compelled to say,
Sons have wives at odds with wisdom, God's plan's feet are clay?
The Bible says wives’ families all perish in His flood,
Miracle (shock not withstanding) God's name isn't...

Perfect present from heaven above
You and I, we fit like a glove
Please let's not fight
It's just not right
So happy that we're so in love

Let our relationship grow

“Where is the unfolding of karma? 
Where is liberation-in-life,
or even liberation at death? 
There is only One”

Verse revisited on 14-September-2022

When fully undifferentiated is our awareness
Fully integrated with God consciousness 
There then remains no separate doer...

All the little pieces
Shards of broken flutes and ripped flowers
Of handcuffed hours
Of burning showers
That had gnawed at the soul
Hammering and thrashing the whole
Into pieces of pangs pathos and spasm
Chasm in psyche
Cactus spiky
Time teeming with tattered...

I am seventy-six now, last season of life
As I  know it, but poetry buds in this ancient of days
With some wisdom remaining (though faculties fail me),
May verse testify to all friends I would praise!

Eyes..eyes, I always see your lambent eyes.
Staring at me, ever scintillating,
As the glimmering, summer sands of time.


Dreaming of drifting heavenwards with you.
Like two sparkling candles rising heavenward,
Melting...

M-ask mitigates the attack
A-gainst human environment; 
R-esisting the vilest virus, 
I-n the assault of
A-ilment.

C-lean mask mitigates the attack, 
R-epelling the deadly droplet; 
I-nvisible infection is repulsed, 
S-o is the ferocious fret.
T-he face mask mitigates the...

i sit within this darkened room
while contemplating death
examining my life ahead
each day’s become a test

i need to ascertain the core
and reason for my pain
because if i don’t find it soon
i won’t see morrow’s day

my bourbon’s...

From dark to light transfusing in a flash, 
your silver-sequined mystery 
that spawns new electricity, 
it shines where none has shone before, 
this trembling luminescence, 
through waves refracted with your sheen 
yet shows no movement...

Whether it's liberal or 3 dimensional it finesses my situation
bursting with creativity boosting my intellectual 
I can see myself as an individual my mind is on
an all time high sensual life imitates it when i'm

That fabled entities enforce,  provoked my nature of endorse.
I signed not fate, and signed not flaunting force
but of Thee signed ~ my love
you . . . as the source!

And from resolve, not that of...

Has the moon perchance a lover,
Could that be her cause to glow?
Or does she dream of brighter days?
I do lately wonder so.

For once upon a time, you see,
She brought solace to my soul—
She did comfort...

Crashing, roaring breakers
accost a rocky shore,
rising jaws of granite, 
recalling myths of yore.	

Raging winds shouting out
their dares to one and all,
do torment the sailors,
like evil Satan's call.

A mighty fist of water
reaches for inbound ship.
Struggling in...

As a literal phemomenon, Death is fearful.
As paradox, an antidote to fear. 
As life in death, it focuses on life.
As something absurd, one must cope with it,
Edmund Husserl or Viktor Frankl’ll help;
If literal ’n figural,...
