Premium Member Money Tree


In a perfect world 
Money would grow on trees 
And I’d just reach up, 
Pluck off a leaf 
And buy anything that I please. 
I’d buy toys for me and my friends. 
If only grownups could see (like a child) 
Everyday’d be Santa’s Day (without end.) 

No one would sleep and eat off the floor 
We would live in sandcastles high in moonbeams. 
Roam without fear and be Things that are wild 
“Money Tree, money tree, make us all smile!” 
I’d sure smile (to the ends of the Earth and roam) 
“Come one, come all!  All who are needy! 
Come to the tree of plenty!” 

We house the homeless, feed the hungry 
In the land where there’s no need to be greedy. 
If everyone everywhere would just eat 
Some ice cream of Hope 
Even maybe you would play 
Act like Mother Theresa or the Pope 

So, eat happy thots, for a good happy breakfast treat 
My dove, come perch on a branch sturdy and strong 
And learn not to hate ‘cause love’s never wrong 
And come plant seeds of money 
In the ground we call home 
So, us poor souls can leap and sing songs (like . . .) 

                      “Money Tree, Money Tree 
                        Grow tall for me! 
                        Extend out your shadow
                        And set us all free!”

The One and Only

Original, Ja is the original that never diminishes, s/he is love herself, the infinite, El Shaddai, Ruach Hakodesh, Ja, they are all one. What are we? we are but the limits of infinity, precious nothings in the womb of our great mother, wisps of love, fragile, delicate and cherished, know that when you look down you look apon yourself, from the tiny butterfly to the mighty tree, from mother theresa to judas we are all one, every single one, we need not even believe we need not even faith enough to achieve a breath for all we need is humility enough to ask or even just to wait, we need not know to pray nor food or time of day, Ja is the name all else is naught without Ja

Premium Member In The Matter of Nothing

Heaven could be like an infinite holiday
Without grief and the burden of war. 
Without physical or emotional pain.
A family reunion every day.
Bathed in the purest light.
Manna nibbled from crystal plates.
 
Heaven could be like a tide pool.
A place where cracked limbs grow back.
Where hearts are gently put back into place.
Where children play on trampoline dreams.
Where everything is glazed in the spirit-Godspeed. 

Heaven could be where secrets of being are revealed.
Where peace is accepted naturally.
Where sin is gleaned, rendering the soul pristine.
Heaven could be trimmed in cherub knickknacks.
Made from the messiahs' precious hands.

Heaven could be a place where you finally meet,
Leonardo -Vincent- Mother Theresa or Martin Luther King.
Heaven could be just a melting film reel, in an L.S.D dream.
Man-woven from the matter of everything and nothing.

Back and Better

Back and better to be together
With Phyllis Babcock my mother Theresa,
She is so refreshing like coca-cola
And really medicinal like African cola.
Back and better for James Fraser Mr highlander,
For poet destroyer, please don't destroy me
Could you be my builder?
Dear Dr. Ram, i still hail your nib,
Where's Royal Trevino? i always know you.
Constance la France is a silent night
There's power in silence,
Show me Andrea Dietrich, the currency in 
My wallet.
Did anyone see Sara Kendrick? am looking 
For her with a microscope,
Sydney Hall, Mr mad poet, take pity on me,
Am only a cool guy...
Deborah Guzzi is an enlightening haiku,
Hello John loving, you set a pace of love,
Annalise Brigham, the Caribbean beauty,
JSLambert Esquire, your ink is melodious.
Carolyn Devonshire, thanks for being there,
Audrey Carey, carry me all along,
Dorris culverhouse, you're a rare gem,
Dane Ann smith Johnson, how i miss you so.
Is that nette onclaud? i salute your talent,
Garri La Budda, a builder of lines
Carol Brown you are always a mentor.
oh! Linda Marie... sweet Marie,
You're a crown, a mother crown,
Am back and better for poetry soup.

Premium Member Last Train To Heaven

The train pulled out of the
Clouds singing
Harmonies

I asked the conductor for
Some change

He said    "son    don't you know?
Nobody's payin'"

I said   "sure        but the stoplight is

Ahead"

Thunder and lightnin'
Lit the outline       of faces I had

Known

Not      one 
Knew the tune

Playin' in my head

I'm sure I saw the face

 of
Mother Theresa

A smile       I thought

Just around the
Bend

About then     the ride came

To a tumblin'

End


Next thing I knew    choirs were
Singin'

And butterflies       up in

My head

The fields                    they went on

Forever

And sunshine       from who
Knows where


My soul       what was left                   just

Started                              dancin'


And prayers        once          just words

Were                         
                                                                     ......... shooting stars


"You see"
I said                    "no one is listenin"

That's when I knew

The time had come 

      For 
            Me
                   To

                                                                        
                                                                                         Fly

Premium Member Jane Goodall - what an amazing life!

(1934-2025)

Equally inspired by Dr. Doolittle and Tarzan as a child
Jane’s zeal grew to heights she could never imagine.
A shy girl with dreams of making the world a better place,
she had no clue how but she let her mission drive her passion.

Jane loved Africa with all her heart, feeling the forests pulsate
with spiritual power of man, beast and wilderness intertwined.

This pioneer saw a planet on the brink of disaster and could not stay silent.
Its urgency demanded that she raise awareness and help local communities
but most of all find allies to carry on this most critical mission.
Jane Goodall became the activist dubbed ‘Mother Theresa for the Environment’.

Jane would have much preferred to stay out of the public eye,
stay anonymous in the sanctity of her beloved Tanzanian jungles
amongst the chimpanzees she studied and called friends.
Instead, this visionary, whose fervency was contagious,
felt intensely responsible to speak up and stir popular commitment.

This advocate inspired world leaders and children around the globe
to choose what impact, as individuals, they would have
and actually step up to be active stewards of the earth.
One by one, exponential action would lead to hope for a better future.

It’s hard to imagine a world not influenced by the late great Jane Goodall.

My Letter

LOVE LETTER
My letter of love speak,
My angel, daughter of the morning sun.
My flower shining without condition,
Looking beautiful with a blue eye
Like the cloud.
Your beauty radiate like the sun,
Kind like mother Theresa.
Let the daughter of the earth praise thee
Because you are not be compare.

Your voice, like the angels,
Your melodious voice heal the soul, 
Your sweet voice sound sweet
 like birds of nature.
“sing my love”
Your voice waken the dead soldiers
“sing my love” 
Your song calm the angrily soul
“love my love”
For your love bring peace 
To my soul.

The Melodies of Life

"The melodies of Life"


Melodies that excite an old Tymer to think he is still in his prime! Perhaps he is as old as he desires to feel? I have no idea but these melodies are remedies like broken codes to a connection with no Earth!

Music lets me write stories Mother Theresa would have wanted to tell , perfect fairy tales that inspire life so each and everyone can sparkle. Rihanna was right , we are indeed Diamonds and we shine bright! My Radio silents tornadoes trapped within.

I groove , l move , l choose not to lose ! I am a brick! Tougher than the nails and hummer of negativity , the Voice of Sia or Adele heals the headaches of next week's exam , dad 's excessive drinking , Jason's inner demons ....the guitar of sweet Tropical Blues like Santana meets Elvis , Rock feeds my agression l am ready to face the devil and say l , l will not stop ! These melodies bring rain on a dry day.
Music is my life!

Piloting My Own Corpse

The world is quiet here
Yet growing louder by the day
Renting paradise from vultures
Split amongst two flavors of instability

I clamored and dreamed for that golden armor
That title that would cement my name in history
To be a "hero" to someone I'd lose contact with forever
Scars fade, and eternity is short

I saw my dreams given flesh
No gaps left to fill with fantasy
Universally agreed upon perfection
Yet we all clamor for the imperfect

Through them, my dreams were given flesh
Warmth on warmth, fear on tenderness
To be able to understand but not empathize
In a way that mattered enough to keep dreaming

The consciousness may forget, but the body remembers
Every molecule tattooed on my gray matter
Screaming for familiarity in that paradise of dreams
How cruel the unconscious mind may be at times

Ego death and carry on
Memories I can hardly call mine when it feels like I died
Piloting a stranger's corpse with his own baggage
Who were you, Derek? Why do I dream your dreams?

Redwood, redwood
The perfect antidote to tradition and trauma
So why does the latter grip me so
When it makes such a poor foundation?

The flower girl piloting your body is a mass of contradiction
Clinging to your first word, your fervent dream
A redwood ship battered by your cresting waves
Die a better death and quit clinging to your remains

I wish you were me
As anyone wishes they could do it all over again
I know your pain better than you do
Even if it meant I would die, I'd grant you that knowledge

Mother Theresa burns in Hell
Knowing there's nothing noble about suffering
The modern king's cruel facsimile of Jesus' word
Would make that poor carpenter weep in sadness and rage

You needn't have feared, poor Derek
For in choosing to hug over maim
You were far closer to Him than anyone
Who blindly listened to the charlatan on the pulpit while you slept

You were blindly resilient, sweet departed
So grant me that tenacity and simplicity
If I grant you the peace you desired
Will you grant me the peace that I do?
