That can shock and moisten one’s...

There are those who say offensive words
should be banned from public speech,
oblivious to the fact that saying such
is incredibly offensive to me.
They prattle on, convinced that only
their own ideas hold the truth,
I wish I could...

Xmas tide, 
a time for familial gatherings,
The golden chain of friendship 
…and companions
Sweet on each other,
parading arm in arm
Together to share a feast and gift giving

...Nativity scenes, red, gold, green
bells ringing
Garlands, wreaths, and holly
Holiday romance...

 Blissful peace; verses instability, violence, and disorder,
 harmonious relations intervene, wicked minded interloper;
 world's jactation spreads, amidst deflexion by war's aper,
 segmentation of life hosts, exemplifies mind's distemper.

"User name" and "password"
That's all you need to know.
Type them in , press "enter"
Then you’re  fine to go.

Sounds quite simple really,
Till your memory starts to wane,
You trawl the deepest caverns
Of your tired and aging...

but also a spark of hope
that curbs your...

Fifty years are quite a few
Through cyber space we travel fast
To reacquaint with ones we knew

Retired now or very soon
To face less hectic...

Bring all your revenges to the table
Sit them down and serve them well
Crystal cut glass, French Champagne
And listen to the stories that they will tell

Place guilt across from regret
Whilst heartbreak and sin reacquaint
Thoughts starched up...

You left me alone
Your spirit descended and disappeared
As I remember, your Death came quick
I observed

I need not travel far
to sense God’s nearness --  
the trill of His many
lyrical voices – Surely
the oriole knows same
intimacy; as does every
petal on the thrilling
rose, dripping luscious color
with scent – Clays-of-clouds
inspiring mental needing...

I am cloaked in silence that
Flows out from my solitude
In all directions and fills
The space around me.
Its healing presence seeps
Into my heart and mind,
My deepest inner core.

No sound of any kind,
Not even the subtle humming
Of...

She was devoured by the 

polluted river That leads to hell,

Her conscience had deserted 

her sponge soaked Brain,

Intoxication became her

Psychological constitution,

This problematic, indisposed

Woman, is not recognisable,

She can't accept that the

Diagnosed cure is abstinence,

My only wish...

Watercolor memories paint
 Enchanted mountains in my mind,
 And sunshine's glow upon my face

 Time to reflect and reacquaint
 With friends so treasured and kind,
 Reconnecting with God's grace

 I felt joy, I had no...
