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.

To Win By Losing, Or the Battle of Guilford Courthouse, Part Ii

...Through the woodlands the riflemen did steam,
reinforcing General Greene’s second line,
the British pressed on, still on the attack,
but they had quite the devil of a time.

Marching through forest that broke up their ranks,
while Americans poured on musket balls,
the dead and wounded kept piling up,
they paid dearly just to advance at all.

When the British threatened to turn the flank,
the patriots all fell back to the main force,
the Redcoats were bleeding from the losses,
and now only faced the prospect of more.

But onwards still they pushed the assault,
with their artillery joining the fray,
then in the chaos some guns were misaimed,
and blew some of their own soldiers away.

Forwards and back the two sides kept surging,
dragoons dismounting to fight on their feet,
but Nathaniel Greene was a thinking man,
and ordered his soldiers to all retreat.

He knew as long as his army survived
the King would have no victory in the south,
so he marched away, and Cornwallis faced
some big questions about what to do now?

Because as he counted up his losses
more than five hundred were wounded, or dead,
a quarter of his entire force…
the realization echoed in his head.

He had not the numbers to go on offense,
and the rebels had escaped mostly unscathed,
Nathaniel Greene’s army was still intact,
could still attack and devastate large swathes.

Cornwallis moved his men to Wilmington,
to resupply, reinforce, and fit out,
but the ‘beaten’ Greene did not wait for him,
in fact his army reinvaded the south!

One-by-one they picked off the garrisons,
freeing both Carolinas’ back-country,
driving forth until the British were left
holding just some small cities by the sea.

Cornwallis had not the numbers to challenge,
like Pyrrhus he had ground his army down,
so he march north to await his comrades,
at a small, seaside village called Yorktown…

African Story

AFRICAN STORY(SLAVE IN OUR FATHERLAND)

Our story! Our story! Never change
We  are lost in the dark,
Not seen the light,
The stranger takes our home,
Make order,change our thought

They enslave us with change of suffering,
They took us from our fatherland,
They took away our fathers,
And turn they to cow in the field,
No water in the field,
To wet their tongue.

They become a native dog,
In their watch post,
Our women are left to suffer,
Our children are train has slave,
Our women are turn to sex machine.

Although we loss things,
But our colour remain .

Premium Member Another Childhood Memory

A cool Autumn morning
we caught the bus
off at eleven 
    .without much fuss.

One & half return 
         our village Croft to Leigh 
     a birthday treat 
from Dad to me.

Hopped on a 
 tram to Burden park 
    to see Stan Mathews 
make his mark

Through the turnstile 
          at the town end
crushed &crammed 
     like cattle penned.

Mathews& Mortenson 
versus Nathaniel Lofthouse
a joust  no connoisseurs
   could never grouse.

Wembly star Stan
still  playing on at thirty eight 
  still making inch perfect 
crosses on a plate.

Shimmy side-step
   feint & dazzle
leaving the defenders
 in a right frazzle

Our ageing hero 
displayed all his twinkling skills
    the complete pro 
without modern-day frills

Most pundits considered 
  Stan as aged has-been 
but no better talent
     had ever been seen

Premium Member Daughter, Cry No More

You can never really grasp that you’re going to lose your parent, in my case, my Dad.

Even though he mentioned it many times he wouldn't be with us long. He had had a defibrillator implant.. and he had had several heart attacks. But we were just getting to know him, being estranged from him since our childhood, my siblings and I. Watching him one day ... made me realize that my tall invincible Daddy wasn’t the same; but to imagine life without him, or imagine him actually dying was unconscionable. When it happened, I thought I would never stop crying or mourning his loss... until this message from his heart to mine, “Daughter Cry No More.”
 
 Daughter, Cry No More
In Loving Memory of my Father,  James Nathaniel Gelsey 04/22/33-1/21/13

It was the day before Thanksgiving, 
a day with you like no other— 
a day I will treasure forever, 
more than words can utter.

Though tired, you hid it well, 
giving me such a golden day. 
If I had known it was our last together,
There would've been more I had to say.  

We spent such precious time together, 
You played our daughter's piano and sang,
precious hymns I remembered 
when I was little, 
Like church bells my memories rang.

You let me make you my best meal yet, 
With biscuits taught by Mom's own hand,
You seemed well pleased and before you left, 
The final look you gave, I did not understand.

With a stern look you asked me to tell Mom, 
You wished to see her again,
It was the last time we would be together, 
the last father daughter time we'd spend.

My grief was unspeakable, tears nonstopped, 
It didn't feel right or fair,
That the father I longed to know my whole life,
For me, would never again be there.

The day you would be laid to rest,  
I sat up weeping more and more on my bed,
I suddenly saw you waiting to get my attention,
With your feathered hat sitting upon your head.

With your handsome smile, 
and wink of your eye, 
one final gift you gave forevermore—
the gesture you gave, clearly in vision, 
“My darling daughter, cry no more.”

Premium Member For Stone To Swim

I, cold ... cold as stone ...
But is that not befitting such as I?
Once, merely common, hidden deep in the earth,
Still, my quality made itself known ... my porcelain perfection

Shone in the sun, and I was freed from Terra's grasp ...
Across a great sea I was rocked, carried in care
To finally, joyfully, go under The Master's hand.
I slowly, agonizingly, emerged from the cloud-white slab, pure ...

Brought forth into all glory and consummation!
Stone saw, chisel, rasp, cloth, and paper ... I stretched my limbs, reached my
Fingers and toes to the ether ... arched my back in a repose of death,
Laid upon an altar of mocked coral, draped only in my net -

The Pearl Diver's repository of all things glistening and wondrous!
Oh, what exquisite orbs, those that grace the net's seam!
White, pink, and black opaline gems - iridescent ocean treasures!
Miraculous drops of milky, nacreous moonlight, hidden in Neptune's gullet,

Awaiting their emancipation ... finally freed at the edge of the diver's blade!
But that, for me, is yet a dream ... I am but stone, after all ...
Be content, instead, to gaze upon my keen beauty,
I, the polished progeny of a sculptor's acumen,

I, the refined, glorious bloom of stone,
I, the ivory issue of marble elegance,
I, the bairn of a master ...
The Dead Pearl Diver.

( This is about the sculpture "The Dead Pearl Diver" by Benjamin Paul Akers 1858, currently on display at The Portland Museum of Fine Art in Portland, ME ... this was a personal favorite of Nathaniel Hawthorne, and he wrote about it more than once. This is an incredible sculpture, especially in person )
