Shall we once more, in mountains of our thought,
Gaze down upon the vastness of our ground,
And know that for the meadows newly sought,
The flowering fields shall not by us be found?
Shall we recall that bronze took place of stone,
And then in turn to iron did yield its way;
That ships of sail no more the oceans own,
And brilliant sunlight lasts for but a day?
Shall we, in embers of the distant past,
Remember living forms that brought our dawn,
But, by that gift of birth, their fate was cast,
And we the reason that their time has gone?
O, things shall pass, and it were ever thus:
'Tis more bitter, though, now that it is us.

Find You, Find Me

~

Find me, find you, swept of warm summer air,
as romance floats softly these moments we share
Sun drenched emotions, lone hours now yield,
desires of two yearning hearts are revealed

Footprints meander long stretches of shore,
strolling along with the one you adore
Dreams now ignite in these visions we view,
promises sent they will always come true

Skin touching skin sharing waves gentle feel
lost in affection our thoughts can’t conceal
Lips warm and tender so wet on my own
passionate sighs every echo has known

You in my arms ‘neath the heavens aglow
moonbeam enchantment your eyes they do show
Oceans keep time with our known destiny
as love will forever find you, find me

Premium Member She's a Woman She's Luna Mwezi-

As I gaze onto morning evening skies
Oh! yon silhouette so does shine
 in space you are a woman
Luna Mwezi
You are much woman
I spy you're Luna a moon
Daughter of the Earth a full grown woman
Spinning 27 days around her
Celestial body rotates around us a woman Mona by name
Luna Mwezi
Woman well praised
Bad day on Earth she's dressed in blue silver on white
While in the evening after dusk the end of day she wears black
Luna Mwezi
When she moves she causes bodies water 
Oceans, streams, rivers, lakes to rise and fall
No one owns her she's alone there and with her silver eyes
She's Lunette,  Luana,
Lewanna
Ilandere a moon woman
Chandra moon goddess
A beautiful moon woman

Premium Member And I Want To Fly Away

I sigh
long and sad
    for I have years and
lifetimes
          and oceans of sadness
to let go  of 
from  d e e p ,   deep  inside me . . .
                  and I want to  F L Y  away-
but I am walking . . . 
it is WINTER
      with a freezing wind
and the snow is  c r u n c h i n g  under my feet
                       I smell churned up earth, and
the DECAY of dead flowers
             and whispers
                    from the graves I pass by . . . 
the day is   d a r k
                         no sun shines
just thick dark clouds hang like ghosts 
    and it is snowing
              and  the sky is  w e e p i n g  white
hidden, a bird cries like a new baby
                         and I want to fly  a w a y_
but I follow  
the hearse carrying my baby boy
                  oh, I feel detached
a watcher of this scene . . . 
I hear the prayers  DRIFTING among the stones 
      and in the  b a r r e n  snow covered trees
                      but the smell of roses is choking
me, then . . . . 
    my family turn and are leaving
            but I am a STATUE  weeping alone
I sigh
long and sad
            and then, I am 
 
                                 s
                                    i
                                      n
                                        g
                                          i
                                            n
                                               g      a lullaby
         for my baby
    it is drifting and  f l o a t i n g  in the wind . . .

Red nails blossoming into cherry trees.
Blue roses, divine, beautiful.
Yellow stars with light that burns the sky.

Through thick and thin,
the path into forbidden forests became clear.
Witchcraft brewing at the scene, sweet sweet sorcery.

Divine, beautiful.
Paintings of mountains and oceans intertwine,
two sides of the same coin, two different worlds.

Snow bleeding hope, deep cuts of sorrow and loss.
Yet, despite everything, it’s still her.
Tough, determined, at peace. 

Black cats leaping into cornfields.
Child of moonlight, unspoken synergy.
Born of shadow and ice, there she remains.

Heat Wave

"Heat Wave" 

A new dawn fades
as the sun overtakes
the division in joy

the top layer 
shiny and new 
still and blue 

calm and observing

underneath 
the cover of morning
the firmament dissipates

like phoenix burning

sensual pleasures 
sharp grooved 
igniting loose ties

sacrificing cool 
language dripping
like molten honey 

over a body 
a real piece 
of work crucified

a deep story 
just short of 
6ft high 

gone all
unstructured 
and supine 

dark Night
tightly holding court 
with Excalibur 

held high
like an offering
to Blue Sky

melting in a heatwave
renaissance rising
oceans turning 

rolling rapture
the blood and water
eye for eye still scoring 

not feathered 
and tarred, 
the never dead 

very much alive

witness the walking 
on watery nets
always close, never far

as in a mirror
the bright 
and shining 

Morning Star

Ring of Fire

My love for you, inside the circle,
It’s like a ring of fire, burning,
Strong, pure and kind, eternal,
Each day, each night and morning.

The flame we started, goes and goes,
It’s shining in my heart and glows,
My love for you forever grow,
Abundantly, like rivers flow.

My love for you is big like oceans,
The waves of love will never end,
It’s like a sea, stirring emotions,
You are my love, my wife, my friend!

My love for you, words can’t describe
They are too small, so I stand still,
-My heart is trembling deep inside-
I love you now, I always will!

AT NOUGHT—

Under feet covered with my bad choices
I’m uncaring and I don’t care how it’s going
All caught up, unwavering, demining, stop judging the brethren
Unrestricted
I have a following
Mind’s encased in babblings, stop judging the populace
To dance within my space
There’s no disgrace
To unravel my unrighteousness
Controlled temperaments, stop judging the sisterhood
Full acknowledgement
As in Cain not Able
                                                     At Nought—

Not acknowledging ones brother
Keep ones departed death under cover
Believing that it’s all resolved
Living on the remaining blogs
Hoping no one comes, or cares
The situation been revealed
Waiting on the bats unbound non inclusive
Awaken dreams a dancing between the lines of reality
Galloping dignitaries
Unfettered, uncovered, uninhibited, unrestricted
Free to the fancy, fancy toward the freed
Given all that liberty, give me liberty

                                                   At Nought—  

People all, all you people stand on the feet
We All shall be judged by t he Master, our Lord God
When time comes each and everyone
The feet off creation stand over circumstances deeper than oceans
Crawl, walk, run, fall in awe, retentive person am I
Fell in,, fall in all in a conclusion
Full acknowledgement
I have a following full acknowledgement
So at all cost judge not …….
                                  
                                                  At Nought—

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2018©

Live or Die

How can we have made it this far,
and still not know what we’re doing?
We’ve come to that fork in the road,
where each way will lead to ruin.
Cause everything we’ve been told is a lie…
Does anyone care if we live or die?

So why can’t we all understand, 
you and I will be next to go. 
If we keep following this plan, 
then no one will survive the blow.
Because once the oceans have all gone dry… 
Will anyone care if we live or die?

I wonder what’ll rise from the ash, 
after all the trees are burned down.
What life will spring up from the dry, 
and barren, charcoal-covered ground?
When nothing but thick black clouds fill the sky…
There will be no choice if we live or die.

Now I have fired the warning shot,
I hope that the sound will be heard.
If we don’t try our very best,
then we will get what we deserve.
It’s enough to make the hardest heart cry…
Let’s all decide we want to live, not die.

Rain

my sorrow
comes and goes
fluctuating
Like
april showers
but
progressively
has
some flooding
powers.
My rain
falls and falls
until
My entire body
aches
of cold
and my shoes
sopping wet
overflow
until my legs feel like bricks
And a clear spot
is just over the horizon
while
the birds
shake off the
water
from the tips of their wings
I peer above
as the clouds
hang heavier
and
the wind picks up
I hold tightly
To my body
For this
Horrid weather just wont stop
And I try to find cover
And 
Company
But
In truth
All I find
Is
Mud puddles
Rain 
Slapping down my back
Vision blurred
I am trapped
Muddling my brain
To leap
over 
These tiny oceans
Is harder than it sounds
But to continue to further sink into
My own
Despondency
Destructive nature
Of my
Heart will
Not win 
Today
