Premium Member Chance of a Lifetime

I will learn to live before i die..
I will learn to love and learn to try..
I will learn to risk and dream...
I will learn to share and to care...

I will bring out the best from anyone.. 
I will render also the best in me...
I will not wait a lifetime to show..
For if i will wait, i might lose long...

Seconds, minutes, hours and days counts...
Less be bothered by saving accounts..
As no coins or bills may amount..
To a true love that is the paramount...

We don't live twice, only once..
Careful and make it a blockbuster chance...
Avoid and don't be misled by trance..
Rather, gracefully lovingly accept life's dance...


Being a Grandparent

Explaining grandkids to your friends
Who have none is, I find,
Like trying to describe chartreuse
To someone who is blind.

For your grandkids bring out feelings
That nobody else can match,
Laying bare an itch you never knew
You had, but now can scratch.

As a parent, you experience
The fiercest love and pride
Intertwined with the anxiety
That childhood does provide.

Though when one becomes a nana
(Or whatever term you pick),
All you’ve learned plus new beginnings
Come together with a click.

There’s a closeness through your child
But a paramount remove,
So you have a chance to bond and kvell*
With nothing left to prove.

Yet before I had my grandkids,
I would surely have dismissed
Ever needing them, but now I know
The joy I would have missed.

*to beam with pride and joy

Premium Member 500000 Deaths a Memorial

If it could have been prevented,
why not, that it was not?
That was a lot of Human Beings that were
Fathers and sons, Mothers and daughters, Brothers and sisters 
Children of the Nation. People who were very special to us---Gone.

We of Human decent can't understand why? 
We may never know the answer to this question. 
Since we know not the answer, then we turn to the idea
of where these lives matter. 

They matter to the world and those left behind.

We seem to care so little as the count is so high.
Our grief is paramount in our lives. This could have been less
had the Public been given the truth. And yet here we stand,
with these horrendous numbers to bear.

Our Creator has taken so many to his bosom. This might be a sign,
not that God is cleaning house and the world we know may be
ending. However, we must believe there is fervent hope that they
have gone to glory while those of us who are left must change.

To what God intended: To Love one another and care for the other.

For these lives have been given up for all left behind. 
So get in line and accept what God intended: "To love thy neighbor,
as thyself."

Seen through a sepia scale
Drab grief, of hiemal cradle
mirthless, a desolate land
shrouded in frozen doldrums,
amid solemn ripples
on threnody and sizzle
akin to a gentle sway
with a oneiric, susurrous
tambourine wave of yore
rain whistles in tune
of doodles in gold and silver.

Swells of silk
of a hypnotic spell—origami
wispy petrichor wafts!
It was tender
ignominious mayhem
of withering earth
sadly surprised
amidst golden neon notes
and vermilion,
as stricken soil stirs.

And flushes in luscious tones
of singing and crystals
as daffodils and clover bloom
amidst webs of aurelian curls
a fairy's rhapsody,
let spring song rise!
each seed that is still alive
hope will sprout subtly,
to refuel the soul
from the cosmic womb.

Wars will hinder any way to harmony 
and allegiance to nations
Earth is our vast home
we purport as world healers 
send me a melody
smoother than embers 
we're rooted in clay
as melody with thawing knack
once I visualized piano tunes,  
each tone evoked anguish  
yet, our sonata is harmless 
paramount of my persona 
beyond brink of kismet
we ought to sigh and cry 
sultry concerto
In a garden labyrinth.

Abortion

Abortion 

A pregnant woman can do as she likes, yes, I too believe
In a woman`s right; but a pregnant woman has the responsibility
of a new life growing inside her and it is paramount that
the beginning of life has the right to be born.
It is often single, uneducated women who get into the predicament  
instead of making her into a killer, we should help to give her
economic help so she and her child can live with dignity.
Women who are busy breaking the glass ceiling when finding
themselves pregnant have an abortion as a matter of course, and
in the name of success commit murder. 
I`m also against adoption it is a capitalist invention, take from the poor 
and give it to the rich, and it is of no help, as the birth mother will regret it 
and the child when an adult will ask, why did my mother give me away?

MODERN BIRDS

The advent of women is a daily phenomenon,
I'm glad I'm not one when all is said and done;
be honest, God must have been laughing creating Eve,
might have been less problematic if Adam and Steve.

He could have had periodic review for procreation,
keep things ticking over and make a whole new nation;
ladies of beauty are not easy to discard - a dull life?
but it might have been better with less trouble and strife.

Things have changed, hating mysogony has become deranged,
but wouldn't have existed if life had been properly arranged;
taken advantage of, ridiculed and decried is not really best,
there may be price to pay, maybe God was one of the rest.

You wonder why equality is paramount, however, why the rush?
now the ad-men have coined the phrase for periods - 'Oh my gush.'

Premium Member What Nunsense

painted in black from head to foot
like a mourner
why not a veil and snowy white
showy wedding gown
after all, nunsense knows
that we are the bride of Christ
while we are at it let’s glue
some angel’s wings and halo
to our ensemble
and heigh ho purchase
a white horse of course
the nuns are coming
fast like gunslingers
but prettier
and the weapon of choice
the two-edged sword
no, nunsense knows, it’s sharper
the good book
open all day
what nunsense knows
you might suppose
is that God
really knows it all
and might suppose
if he really does
that we might want to
glitter-gold plate
our fingers in the endowment
of the Great Creator
of the paramount groom
his word is his promise
Christ’s grand promises are always kept
and on point
is that brothers and sisters in Christ
from all lands
will wear white
and inherit all, beside the lion and lamb
fill your lamps with oil
don’t spoil your marriage
when it’s dark you need your supply
of extra oil
the nuns they ride
as they hear the groom call
as they hear him call
too many nuns are left behind
in mourning gowns…

Premium Member Depth of the Human Soul

in a perfect world, 
             we'd accept others 
           for who they truly are; 
                   we'd be free 
           of unconscious bias 
                against those 
who look differently than we do.
     we sadly have a tendency 
         to judge other people 
        based on appearances;
               what they wear.
                it matters not 
            the way we choose
          to present ourselves 
                 to the world,
              our inner beauty 
                is paramount; 
         eschew superficiality,
             plumb the depth 
           of the human soul.

Looking For Empathy Not Sympathy

Empathy and sympathy are as different as night and day,
Sympathy lives in shallow waters only,
If you are looking for Empathy you need to look in deeper waters. 

Empathy has better eyesight by far,
Has hearing more acute,
And a greater understanding of the needs of others.

Everyone of us is long on Sympathy,
Most however come up short on Empathy,
And some will never be blessed with a visit by it.

A realization that there are others in the world,
Who have needs that are similar to our own
Is a good indicator of who has Empathy and who has none.

A person without empathy is more likely to be selfish,
See their needs as paramount,
And others merely there to make them so.

Premium Member Nonsense Versus Common Sense

I don’t worry about nonsense
I abhor it
I love and appreciate common sense
That’s it
I pray to God to grant it to me daily
As a reward or compensation. Pride, integrity
Good logics, compassion and respect are the main
Ingredients that one can find in this domain
One must also follow the principles, the rules
The laws and the constitution of the relevant tools
Acting like fools or bullies is not part of the equation
Narcissism is highly volatile and hazardous for our nation
Power runs out of steam fast
It does not last
The rules of laws are paramount for a civilized society
When a subject is unanimously considered false, eerily or crazy
Everything becomes obvious and logical. The majority
Always prevails unless the venom of corruption, greed and thievery
Is fraudulently or secretly injected. I am always on the side
Of common sense. The majority always wins and the Vox Populi
Vox Dei adage retains its relevancy and accuracy, and the tide
Is echoing in the direction of righteousness and justice. Vox Populi
Vox Dei.
