Shakespeare Sweats a Contest
Sweating Bard, thou dost pen in hot, mid-day roast!
“That new poetry contest’s golden trophy I must win.”
Old Sol, cooking Shakespeare into a warm, golden toast.
To lose, you see, for him, was a most dark, heinous sin!
Sad, sad, to observe him ignore his divine sterling wit!
Trees sftly whispering, “Stop now, be off your knees!”
“Take heed, for you need not lose and be christened a twit”
“Bard, be not just a common man, simply out to please!”
He listened to the whisperings of the wisdom of lush trees.
Thence, filled anew his goblet with freedom and fresh wine.
Broke his old quill with joy, his own dancing muse, now freed.
Trophy ideation, gone, his individualism, oh, magnificence divine!

Ponder awhile, as should we all;
at dulcet morning birdsongs call,
at virgin leaves that break the earth,
watch mother nature giving birth.
Observe your lover now at rest;
slow rise and fall of her soft breast.
The sun glint on a drop of dew;
white clouds against a sky of blue.
Think of something that you now miss;
when your mother gave her last kiss,
the butterfly that brushed your nose,
your baby’s soft pink wrinkled toes.
Soft ripples of a gentle stream,
the cold delight of fresh ice cream,
a lacy web that spider spins,
the joyous pain of tree-scuffed shins.
Oak leaves that turn from green to gold,
a sleeping chrysalis unfold,
and tadpoles growing their new legs;
the dripping yolk of soft-boiled eggs.
Stare out, stare out, stare out to space.
Your too-short life is not a race.
Ponder awhile, don’t wonder why
that everything you see will die;
they will not, if you let them stay
there, in your mind, as bright as day.
~Clouds~
(Hop-Scotch)
Clouds are nice and take many shapes
If you don't believe take a look
They travel fast and can reshape
Clouds I see like a picture book
Sometimes see angels or an ape
Observe in sky they can't escape
They're great to watch from site or nook
Clouds fantastic God's creation
Benefit man are here to stay
They're like marshmallows in motion
Moving fast or slow in clear day
They look so soft and bring emotion
Clouds bring rain can cause commotion
But they're fun to watch any way.

Ceaseless go sounds,
knowing no bounds.
Day dawns, noon deepens.
Afternoon ripens
till comes silence at night
Birds chattering -chirping,
Domestic cries scattering.
Vexing vehicles hasty,
Cracking sounds nasty
Blowing horns, impolite.
Either avoid yells of crowd,
or be a part, being proud.
Loud rude arrogance,
on shouting day of nuisance.
busy noisy upright.
You are bold and loud.
Shout, as life will sound.
Daily noisy marital clash
May or not frequently flash
Observe night without fight.
(Dedication: For my nephew
Yong Chye and his wife Su Pei)

Wonder finds joy in love most true,
Explore each day the path of cheer.
Thrill funds new ploys in happy cues,
We find nice ways to make life dear;
Observe the will of two hearts kind.
Gather in time our journey grand,
Align fond feel in cherished finds;
Touch in deep rhymes lover and friend,
Heart to heart we live warm feelings;
Embrace a voice in charming choice,
Reach out to be understanding.
Now seeds fond poise beyond vain noise,
Opt lovely smiles where laughter lights,
Work out fond style to live love bright.

Just For You ((Token #2)
Antithesis
In May, the lion’s ear blooms immaculately,
As if the night sky is on fire.
It excretes a ravishing untarnished beauty,
A mesmerizing compelling beauty
Only the mad mystics and poets can discern.
Here, put on these rubber sandals;
The pair with the ostrich plumes,
For the walkway to my hidden tower is replete,
With thorns, bristles and stickers; the ladder there
Has splinters that anesthetize one’s toes,
Your plump white toes with the crimson polish,
Applied there like bloody footsteps on murderous floors.
There is nothing we can do to offset the numbing,
Except, pretend we never met or kissed that time,
When we decided to dare the gods of crescendoing passion.
I remember you decided unilaterally
To disrobe inside my ‘72 Land Yacht,
For fear of eternally disappointing me.
“Here, take my hat and cover yourself.”
Indeed, you are the antithesis of me.
But now, let us walk to my high garlanded tower,
A mile and a quarter from here,
Where we will sit naked on velvet carpet,
And rub thumbs in the candle light,
As Debussy music inundates our sated senses,
From speakers attached to the walls like bison heads,
Surrounded by insect-slaughtered window panes,
And glass bongs that spew atoms of electric sex.
Relax honey, it’s wonderful you’re so open-minded.
Relax, you will love the interesting insides
Of my tall and comfortable tower, where
We will observe the unfolding continuing tragedies,
Of dire human existence; it will be
Just like reading old newspapers from 1968, black print
Still greasy with unslaughtered fish, complete
With disastrous headlines no one wants to remember. But
We, you and I, will remember them, and weep a little,
When the mad dancing inevitably commences,
Here, inside and beside our grinding bodies.
Look over there, honey.
Do you see the lion’s ear blooming immaculately?
Do you hear their soft cries whimpering in the night,
Like virgin lovers squealing in the darkness?
Yes honey, we can hear their invisible sighs and moans,
From the top of my high
And comfortable tower.
LONGING
The earth has become
a desert of fraught
ambience
That once was a
bloom and hive of
flora and Homo;
All become extinct,
except what I am yet
to see.
My heart surfs like
a lonely cloud in
the sky,
My mind scales the
sea as do a stray
yacht,
My soul’s lost in
the labyrinth of
midnight dreams.
Upon the shattering
roar and din and
chatter,
I hear none, but the
subtle rhythm of my
heart;
A quiet step, a
tender touch… just
imagining.
I’m searching all
boundaries within
four walls bound
And did not observe
time takes form and
shape,
As my only
acquaintance of
tomorrow lies in
hope.
My spirit transcends
my body, in that far
horizon
Where the sky
embraces the land,
there lies my balm.
Bid me come as long
as air subsist, my
dearest heart!
Itsoghole O.

Against slothfulness, indolence, and idleness’ ailment.

For a sweet savour unto You by Your fellowship…
Help me give myself unto Your bliss of discipleship
Against worldliness, materialism, and vices’ partnership.

The price we pay
For these countries of ours
Battlefield loss
Coffined towers
Daughters and sons
Gunned down
Patriotic souls
Perish, under Nature's sun
Terrorist war, i cant understand
To fight each other, my thoughts bland
Muslim, Sunni or Shiite Bro's
Severe grudge, Suicide blows
No faith, can comprehend
The sender of this degenerate send
Martyr's picked, soon forgotten
As the world denounces, faiths so rotten
West Bank, Basra, Baghdad too
Exhibits in this modern Zoo
Kill your neighbour, slay a friend
On the news, images send
Close to home these cowards strike
Maim and kill, their consience wiped
Off to where they are supposed to go
Forever land, where nothing flows
If faith exists on this magic land
Would what you see, be in its plan
To do what we do, and think it's best
All faiths would be, under arrest
If we are all under the one
So many wrongs have humans brung
For this Highlander to understand
Who is indeed, in charge of this land
Before you answer, please observe
To actually who, do humans serve
So many idols, are they human made
Whose do we walk, on earths esplanade
The answer is there for all to know
Open minds, allow the flow
It may not be, what you think it's been
It may be around you, everyday seen
Nature, nature in your might
Observe this planet, in your sight
Render wrongs, display whats true
Remind your tribes, what they should do
Way back then, explosion new
The cycle of me and you
If we don't understand what we are here for
Misfortunes of War & Beyond no More

Standards within the Heavens
Virtues with honor
Calm waters, but focused
Crystal clear inspiration
The Sun glistens with assurance
Strength enduring
Sea creations refresh through the waters
Treasures deep
Safe keeping below
Boats and swimmers enjoy the cool feel
I am the ocean being ideal
I understand being the ocean
Even the Sea Gods wonder with curious
My waves with convictions and thinking its own
What are they thinking?
Each wave having a message in being caution
Sometimes the waves can propel during a storm
Other times being calm
Through every storm
There is a lighthouse watch
The Heavens create and observe
I am the oceans with vision of horizons
Eyes seeing as far as can be focused
Angles to the shores
Being an ocean
What do you see?
Distance with possibilities beyond the seas and depth of inspiration.
