Premium Member Exodus a Providential Pilgrimage Parta

He keeps his promises
     the marvelous work of God
prayer-answering
promise-keeping
caring living holy God
of the past
        the present
              & to be

speak o Lord
       your servant hears
fill my inadequacy
                      with you
make me your vessel
                     and renew

who pays my debt
who bears my sin

Lord I can't
              you can
so I leave my outcome
                       unforced

stay close
         set me apart

        a light-bringer
a pilgrim
     with no hiding place
I contemplate
                my eternity
according to your mercy

Premium Member Summer's Glow


pleading petals play gently in the sun
whispering joy across the sticky skin
summertime blessings cannot be outdone
however, autumn is her next of kin

praying roses and melancholic buds
remembering our heart’s tender healing
hanging in timeless ache of fair redbuds
season’s bliss lifts shadows who’re concealing

promising the night stars, moon and fireflies
rousing such beauty the skies come to life
only God can breathe this splendor its whys
summer’s glory comes ‘round despite all strife

birdsong and melodies rich kindness flow
sunshine leaves its touch as an afterglow

Premium Member Relativity

Aunt Evelyn’s in the kitchen
     She mixing up a batch
It’s her famous Eggnog
     Don’t drink it, there’s a catch
Once she knows you like it
     She’ll not leave you alone
“How ‘bout just a little more”
     The words exact a groan!

Then there’s Cousin Eddie
     And he’s been nippin’ Gin
It’s not a Christmas party
    Without hammered next of kin
And speaking of a hammer
     Where is Uncle Fred
The last time someone saw him
     He was cracking nuts in bed

Can someone please now tell me
     Who’s singing in the den
I hope it’s not the twins again
     You know its way past ten
I guess I’ll just accept it
     As most good people do
Another family Christmas
     Someone, pass me a brew

The Pen, the Poet and the Poem

THE PEN, THE POET & THE POEM

Perfect picture painting a Poets palava,
And divisible dimensional dilemma:
Like a child surrounded by teddys & toys
To make a confusing costly choice;
Loose the pen & play the pipper,
Or choose between the pen & paper.
My pen I choose, though words reside in me, 
The inks temporal ambition is to be
the being inside, on hand to always akin
to superfluity the universe blows in.
I'd write all my emotions all over my skin.
The Poem is the Poets next of kin,
No matter what you think,
in the world's ear his words will sink.
I am a bleeding poet with gush of ink, 

words cascading from fountains of imaginations. 
With no paper, I'd cloth myself with my muse.
Paint me a poet with a voiceless voice, 
words would still speak than world's noise. 
The Pen might be mightier than The Poet but then,
The Poet is the life and breath of The Pen.
Let The Pen breath to marinate The Poem.
Reserve a thought for these threesome at the helm.
I'm not just The Poet whose works lies on your shelf
but I am the emotions you feel, The Poem itself.

Premium Member A Poetic B Movie Roll

Evermore Evermore they must settle a score, 
They were shown the door and never knew the reason for
Jilted like an unwanted lover 
True the audience thinks they have enough money to cover. 
But still they wanted to be the silver screen siren not an average mother. 

So here we watch the films they were in 
Where their big scene with a scream is followed by the next of kin 
Their characters were never in the book since they are casted just for their good looks. 
Critics state they are trying to act 
And for the most point that is an honest fact 
After the day’s work, they go back wondering why they were kicked out of their sport. 

It is the truth they are there to be cute 
Since what really sells isn’t watching someone go through hell. 
No, I must state I will pay money to see someone who I would date. 
Even know in the end they end up eaten by a gigantic rat named Ben. 
So here on a Sunday Morning after watching something on a Saturday Night when you did not heed that warning.  
Last night’s rendezvous which was cool 
When you ventured into that prohibited swimming pool. 
Yes, I must say we do enjoy the feeling we get 
Watching you get stabbed when you are totally wet 
In lieu of flowers when you leave that shower, we just want to say we do care 
When you are vulnerable and scared 
Let it be known when you do not answer the phone 
We are there watching over you when you are alone. 
When the character enters to spell your demise 
We will always know they are all telling lies 
As the DVD light shines during the late hour 
We know our B movie friends do still have the power 
They are the reason we spend the time 
Watching their film as it unwinds. 
When realities social is not there due to all the things that are not fair 
This modern-day relationship can due for those who are not being played as a fool. 
It causes no problems for anyone and to be honest it can be kind of fun 
Enjoy the images as they unspool enjoying the pictures that are more healthy stimulations then lamb stew. 
Thanks for being our moving photographs of beauty 
And to be honest yes, we do appreciate the nudity.

Premium Member Chelsea Alive After Round Number Five

After doing my author duties 
Got to the pub for a futbol beauty 
Liverpool Chelsea in a duel under the lights 
Should go down to the final seconds I do write 
But the score before I order is one nil 
Hoping the Champions would be able to overcome this chill 
I must say Chelsea did the early work 
Even before I picked up my fork 
Another half has come along 
And the Reds must be feeling a little bit wrong 
It had been nearly 144 minutes since they did their goal song and dance 
Giving no chance for the coronavirus to advance 
How up setter they could be with all this time no netter we see 
Returning to the bridge Chelsea had marching orders 
Having full control, no need for any confusing match related reason to sorter
Aggressive they do play 
I must say 
Making the English Premiere Champions earn their pay 
Reds are the season star 
While Chelsea works the FA Cup bar 
Due to Liverpool mistakes 
They must line up and show what it takes 
To defend themselves from the direct kicks 
Standing strong without any knowledge of sporting tricks 
Hearing the little prayer, it was deflected over there 
It did not go in 
No need for Liverpool to call the tournament next of kin 
A little later Chelsea did close the deal 
Giving reality the news visiting Liverpool was not going to win a steal 
Liverpool still holds the top spot in the EPL 
While Chelsea realizes they are still in it as a marketing tool for the sport to sell 
Nearly 188 minutes without a goal 
Time to warm up using the boxer day gift of the stocking stuffer coal 
But the boys in blue will continue towards the FA Cup crown
While now its time to celebrate with a night on the town.

Premium Member Days OF Arbor

Another spring 
Counting rings
No longer dark 
Dog days wait, for their bark
Signaling life has been in bloom  
And soon 
A beautiful reality will arrive 
You do not really die 
Glorious sunshine 
Photosynthesis dines 
Fed well 
From nature's magic spell 
Can't you tell?
Arbor figure matures 
Always sure 
About wilderness’ door 
No one ignores 
Relaxed, whistling tunes 
Branches dance and swoon 
Turning everything green 
Shade is an escape dream 
Then things turn 
Brown and burn 
Chilling breeze sighs 
Giving a ride 
To the foliage who occupy 
Twigs ready to say goodbye 


Fall scheduled to begin 
Giving the end 
A win 
Low temperatures chattering bite 
Haunting the cool night 
Crumbled leafs descend 
Crinkling no bend 
Completing their beauty rein 
Realizing it's just a plants game 
Meeting with the rake 
Realizing the bag is ready to take 
Them to the disposable bin 
No need to call a next of kin 
Since they will be shred
Rip and dead 
Until spring 
And another ring 
Appears 
Exclaiming the tree is here 
Giving a reason 
To celebrate each season 
Letting the seeds 
Do their deed 
And grow more trees

Premium Member Nhs - No Heating, Sorry

Went to St Richards early today
Had an appointment so that was okay
The problem is this; I went in with a hernia
But when I came out... I had hyperthermia

Whilst no radiator did radiate heat
And I was laid out like a chilled cut of meat
The staff got abuse from a quite irate geyser
‘I'm going to Iceland to sit in the freezer’

They prodded and scanned me right down to my toes
And broke off the icicle hung from my nose
They asked if I'd registered my next of kin
I said, ‘That's her there with the goosebumpy skin’

When they lifted my gown and asked me to cough
They snapped what they thought was an icicle off
The chill numbed the pain as they whipped off my wheener
So I went in as Terry and came out as Tina

Premium Member The Haunting Adventures of a Dirty Blonde Knight-Family Time

Somewhere out west 
Stars stated they were the best 
Back in the sunshine land 
Retribution wrestled with a theatrical plan 
Disrupting a championship watched by virtual fans 
Before this was going on 
Celebrities were two down 
Staying calm
Despite this lurking evil bomb 
Getting a pair down the stretch 
Overtime period slated a nice catch 
Stars snuck one in 
Sending the Knights home meeting with next of kin
Mrs. Knight who was not a fan 
Thought the whole thing was an icy scam 
On the mountain top 
Her husband heroics ready to stop 
Wanting him home 
From those obsessed using cell phones 
Hearing the call for a simple life 
Spent hugging his lovely wife 
No kissing any cup
Maybe raise a dog starting as a pup 
Cut the hair 
Golden locks no longer an affair 
Memories worth a share 
Especially when joined by friends and family who care 
Honeymoon has drawn to a close 
Next chapter maybe will have new foes 
Written in poetic pose 
What it is about? Who knows? 
Right now, it is love that shows
Happily ever after I suppose
