Earthly To Heavenly Mansion

EARTHLY TO HEAVENLY MANSION 

When I think of a Mansion I think, 
of one with “Vintage appeal,”
Stone architecture, welcoming pillars, 
A monumental royalty feel.

Great palms and great magnolia trees,
Defining the estate’s history, 
Pathways of fragrant...

Love, Devotion and Other Memories

I

Between Juliet and me
Devotion thrived . . .
We stayed all day and all night
In dark, hidden places, picking watercress for the moon
Together we lived, Juliet and I,
Among worm woods
Friendly gardens
Doing silly things,
Avoiding the city’s hastiness,
Befriending...

Hudson River Revival

"Lake Tear in the Clouds" was an indescribably pretty scene
Lewis Pugh hiked in the rain; clouds lifted, he felt serene.
He dove in, swam through hemlock, maple, ash and birch
An adventure starting in nature's wooden church.

Word Fright

by Michaelw1two

inspired by word works of Void Opus

 all for you, superannuated, desiccated erudition,
 this propagation scribed, this apotheosis odium;
 under eructate flames, under the epitome of,
 euphonious, promulgated magniloquent inception;
 of the Maker’s exuberant...

To and In the Nature of Awareness Grace

TO AND IN THE NATURE OF AWARENESS GRACE


A fall morning drive presents an interesting ride.
Looking out into he roadside forest palisade,
Eyes fall upon two age-old stoic trees still clothed
In their branches’ waving illuminating green leaves:-

Tendered Sport

Twist in your dark deep eyes flit me, your body engulfs the thoughts. 
Crazy upstart, floating lock, graceful body dexterous striptease dance,
Walk me to your room, steroid zombie in moves, rave, exult to crave.

American Idle

The lazy consciences
of the long yawn, credulity class
work so hard
to be an American Idle

“Care less” is their toga motto

You gotta have Roman candle aspiration
Pleb effigy be the 
burning goal of a finger-twiddling nation

Fiddle sticks

Black Labels

she reaches behind the smokescreen

of her sunken eyed curtain veils

films of tears void of translucence

stoke reminiscent ashes that trace

another blinding thick-skinned defeat

hidden by camouflage and smears

touched up campaigns of bravery


her retinas a web of hallucinations

Whitewashing the Fence

I've constructed a picket fence around me to keep jackanapes out
Through pickets they can see me, but I never allow them to touch
private parts of me I keep concealed, and don't talk about so much

From "reveille" To "taps"

A cavalryman's day was guided by a series of bugle calls,
The dulcet tones reverberating within the palisade walls.
Wanting to hurl a boot at the bugler for "Reveille" at dawn,
Instead he stumbled from his cot at...

Pigman, Pigman, that's us Harrah we Are!

We all headed off from Chingford, from good old London Town
Us the McGregor Brothers, and 'Pigman' our murdering clown

Leaving the 'Turtle and Monkey' very close to 'Dorset Street'
Where 'Mary Jane Kelly' became the last of...

Strong As a Hearts Resistance

Stone partitions 
stretching somewhere in the distance
borders beckon cross not here
as strong as a hearts resistance
though intentions are most sincere
cobweb covered disappointments
when trust like ancient ruins turn
Divided by protections wall
closing off and closing in
Defenses unlikely...

Palisade Palestine

Palisades					      Palestine


Raging fires					Raging fires
mansions destroyed				Babies burned
a million tears					the dead cannot cry
the winds are whispering			the bombs are laughing
who stole your water supply?		no aid allowed in
terrifying, natures justice			Americas politicians sign the bombs

Dawn's, Softest Breaking Hours

Dawn's, Softest Breaking Hours

Dusty, worn road where tall trees are made,
further ahead, within emerald forest crown,
Nature in its great wisdom creates a palisade
and softer beauty that rivals earth's starry gown!

Shaded woods, my soul would dare...

Cliff

Cliff
On sea cliffs walks a breath of grace
Windswept wonder splashed on her face
Sun shadows dance around her feet,
Delight in this sandy retreat,
Green parasol, like flower blooms
Floral scents and ocean perfumes,
Flowing spice of the salty air,
Carefree...

Keeping out determined criminals is impossible!

We live in,

A Dawn's Scented Winters Tale

In the early dawn, the loud barking of my dog
Woke me up;
I arose and went to the door leading out onto
The veranda;
I adjusted the blinds and peeped out with my
Quiet eyes.

Peering out through the palisade...

The Berlin Wall

The swirls of freedom’s fervent dreams
On canvas raised in bitter cold
Upon oppression’s wall of screams

A city severed at its seams
Gleaned comfort in art’s bright console 
The swirls of freedom’s fervent dreams

Beyond the walls, a feared...

OUR KELOID HEIRS

They are the fruits
of our sown seeds
in the womb of life;

They are the foot-stepped
followers of today’s times
and its challenges;

They are the precious gifts
that our Creator’s love
has given us to cherish;

They are the navel travelers
whose pathway...

Alone In the Heat

The insult to sober conviction
unsettles the saints.
Give me your hand, 
to solve this problem.
An abstract idea joins
the postures of different conflicts,
the worship of crumpled illusions. 
After great sufferings
only proverbs give a soothing effect.

Images blur, misspent...

The Unseen

It lies beyond our perspective of skies,
Is the limit of life foreseen?
Only by the Alpha and Omegas eyes,
May we  see why the grass is green.
Paved of gold is the streets, 
Songs of angels rings...

Respecter

My warden is the one who lights the specters.  

I apologize.  

Quite the respecter of persons.  He does it merely to emote.  



Welcome.  

Walk here along the palisade with me....

See the dancing child
She's a very antsy little dancing child

She finds it hard to see the giggles
Overshadowed by the dances squiggles

Who is that watching near the pink
