Premium Member Trailblazer

I was a classic 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air, in mint condition, admiral and white.
My owner had other beautiful, classic cars, like stars sparkling into twilight.

My owner loved his old cars, saying 'they don't make them like they used to;'
And I enjoyed getting out upon the open road, to show him what I could do.

My fellow cars and I saw lots of sunny days, in bliss freedom of the flowers,
Traveling the length and breadth of this land, in the clasp of jeweled hours.

Flighty friends and I recalled 'good old days,' in rosy sunset times of finally, 
Laughing and talking our memories in darkness, as moon shone, indefinably.

Forever friends were like feeling family, in the floral days of fuchsia's reign;
When flitting, green butterflies fanned for long, and falcons flew like a train.

I lived in the house of pleasant shadows, which didn't have many windows;
For it was one huge room without a view, like a path without the primrose.

Sparkling summer sauntered in silently, creating such scenes on my street!
Silken clouds roamed, when Sam ran his errands. Traveling was ever a treat.

Neighbors made admiring noises about me, going off on rides in neon night.
We cars were the toast of the neighborhood, nice nostalgia, in a golden light!

Clown orchids had ceased performing, in gone days of purple, beard orchids.
Now their summer relative had the holy ghost, like bliss from many sources.

Mask flowers held beautiful mystery, in alluring hues of pink, cream and red;
Like sweet secrets of moonlit shadows, and violet dreams after going to bed.

Once, Sam and I were cruising Sunset Highway, for it was my turn that day;
While dear friends waited in the cool, quiet of home, for their chance to play.

I felt a sudden impact on my left, and I knew I was hurt! There was damage;
But if not for Sam's expert driving, we might not have been able to manage!

This had happened to me times before. Such is to be expected in a long life.
As ever, friend Sam was my Superman, my mechanic in times of cruel strife.

My convalescence didn't seem so long, as I laughed about old days with pals.
When streets were not very busy, and many listened to front porch musicales.

For we were darling, daring trailblazers, quaint old paving way for all modern,
Leaving lingering feelings of fond nostalgia, like lovely fall leaves which yearn!

Premium Member A 7-Letter Word

May it not be uttered and may my lips be sealed. I don't like how it makes me feel. It gives no thrill. It has no appeal. So often, it does not heal and seldom                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     closes the deal. Early this morning, I took the time to record a few lines of muse about a word I don't like to use.                                                           

I have often thought about the people I have met and the places I have roamed and made my home over the last 50 years. Many are the things, people, and places that have proven to be most disappointing and have wearied, worn me out, and caused me doubts. There've Been dejections, rejections, and questions, but as I look back, I see no regrets.

I have used a 7-letter word so often that it has become a dreadful thing to consider its usefulness. I should think that heaven is the only place such a word is forever forbidden. Presently, that word is NOT WHAT I'M SAYING to you, you, or anyone else and hope to never find it necessary. But if by chance or providence it should be used relative to anyon9 Ie, it would be among the hardest words I ever uttered to living mortals. I've been as far east as the Big Apple but not to stay; and forty years ago, I came with my wife and kids to live in the City by the Bay.  I hasten to say that I've never lived longer nor loved stronger than here in the River City where I only want to say the the 2 lettered word 'Hi' but never the 7 lettered
woord, "Goodbye".  I can say "Hi" with a smile, but "Goodbye" only makes me cry.

People say that home is where your story begins, but I've never been one to be bound by what others might say. I only know that the place where I was                 born was never home to me. I tell you, I did not have to look long and far nor think Hard and deep to figure out whom I might blame for the calm, peace, and poise that I am feeling where I live today. Yes, there is something very special about the people and this place where I'm living today that feels like home to me, and I suspect that The Lord has everything to do with it.

Letters For People Part 5

Dear people,
In relation, Historically, 
Historians heroically will fake it. 
kids can serve themselves said correlation. 
Take what is.
Record reels of Real confessions chalk full of truthful lessons on how to feel. 
How to push for real progression. 
Identify risk. 
 A population’s silent suggestion. 
To get Upset, in that, to get up In accordance to time, all of mankind barely register. a blip on the tip of conception. 
A  burst of awareness, to realize each set is set up separate in each relative reality of self perception.  To see in itself is a credit. To Receive it, It in itself ... 
One second, on the surface of decades, in a sea of centuries before existence, well kept, below, a hush to a hum unheard and left off of all of the records. 
Unaccredited, Easy targets to get over-credited. 
When Run red their credits, 
read: “It lives. Because I said it did.” 
Who gives a line of credit to those who so desperately to get it, who need it like a medic, 
But I’d wage to bet it’s to spend it in the opposite way that it’s intended. 
Commend all of those that contended. 
And anyone at all whom attended. 
Correct view. Corrective is collective let’s give ‘cause it’s best to - to the rest I guess it’s -
Just set it and forget it. Much as distant relatives;
 -Figure it’s Best to just let us live…
        As long as it’s ...Immediately gratative...
Our best method, many mini moves toward moving for a more major movement forward, 
Observe and compare pre-approved plans for improvements, no one can afford. 
Redact, reform, literary rebirth bursts into the truth that in which we will record, 
and now it’s more, collect, from pre accepted hits, Recreate in-an-organized-list. Of the top samples, 
A fool and A toolbar together with helpful tips. 
Slip bits in hidden messages, to send to ratchet kids to send them off, 
Off on A trip, on a Botanically based-spaceship. Hope they know that it’s All made up, 
While we Make believe that they arrive at home and safely they do make it. 
IS...crazy. (Imagination)
The craziest. The human case, it is. Inside the human case within…Is a sharper image, of every last face that formulate one’s nation. 
A Hereditarial misclarification taken down the forsaken line and educated In within the others next of kin. 
       -hope you’re still out there, people, 
if you’re lost, you can still win.

~ Cherish the Kisses ~

~ Precious-tears-offered in-faith ... fall, God-catches them places 
them, within His Souls heavenly-amphora, and with a sway of His Mighty Hand, 
plucks-up His eminent-Knowledge-honed by Holy Quill. ~

~ Upright ... and looking strait into His vision for us of the new day. Offers 
the many consummate opportunities riding high on the fringe of His 
promise, granted in welcome. Painting a Holy Journey, evolving amid 
a certain solace and freedom. Moving on into veracious days with Him 
lasting on forever. Exiting beyond higher lofts of earthly sky's and rolling 
lands advancing in humble reverence descending down from the openness 
of the Heavens. Rewriting yet again; another-story in person for each individual. 
Yes for all life; far-greater and-even-greater still ... than the others gone before. ~

~ Carrying within it ... the treasures revealed of Him strewn about found soaring 
aloft the reality of Him granted and awakened devout of their surrender. Whispering, 
of the latter days grateful of the many gone by. ~

~ As tender kisses resinating from-His heart of-mercy, grace-the folds-
every-nook-and-cranny-of the-lands. The-fullness-of His-consciousness-
the very-presence-of His-greater-hope ... has-placed-its-sweetness-rising-up-
in its-essence. Within-lowly-laying-effervescent; droplets-glistening-in the-
light, of His-joyous-rejoinder. Given for all; in love. Carried-in the-honest-
taste-the-freshness; of the precious morning-dew, and-in her-innocence; 
truth; e'er-aware; and-seeing this-and being-fond of-His-presence thriving-within-
the-relative-ease and-dancing amid-the peace, emanating-from the-perfect-fruition-
of His-love. ~

~ Moves-to-cherish too, the-pureness ... 

of-the-union ... ~


~ While rising, in-a blaze-of His-Glory; from the ashes of the past. A 
new-day budding in the-wake of-its-freedom. Amid royal fields-growing-
still-fragrant more brilliant elaborate; of lavender. Has felt the-pleasure 
of-His passion too, and-given the true-warmth and goodness-He has-always 
been-open to provide. ~

~ Pausing-amid this beauty seen still rising in-spite-of-this out-of-the-ashes-
of-the-hate of the days of our past. 

His-love remains, abides-for-us. 

Why not-we-too all-move, to-look-to-cherish this like the-innocent; in their 
freedom are-always striving ... to-do? ~

Holy Quran Miracles2

1.618 :

Number of Golden Ratio, mystery of Kaaba, Miracle of Islam and Koran, it is the high time for Divine Secrets, Divine Mysteries. Soon on display!

In a little while, you will see scientific proofs of unbelievable mysteries that have remained hidden in the Holy City of Mecca for thousand of years with your own eyes. Mecca is willed as direction of kowtow, convention place for billions of Muslims and as the holy center of Islam. Those Muslims, who can afford, are prescribed to arrive go on a journey through Kaaba, Muzdelife and Arafat and to convene in the sacred city.

Phi Constant- 1.618, superior design number of mathematics. The Creator has always used the very same number in numerous events in the universe; in our heart pulses, the aspect ratio of DNA spiral, in the special design of the universe called dodecehadron, in the leaf array rules of plants called phylotaxy, in the snow flake crystals, in the spiral structure of numerous galaxies. The Creator used the same number; the number of golden ratio which is 1.618…

As a result of his 25 years long study, aesthetician Dr. Steven Markout proves that each of human faces and bodies, created pursuant to this ratio, are completely beautiful. If the relative ratio is 1.618 for the components of any structure, then this form will be convenient to Golden Ratio, the perfect design.

So, where is the Golden Ratio Point of the World?

The proportion of distance between Mecca and North Pole to the distance between Mecca and South Pole is exactly 1.618 which is the golden mean. Moreover, the proportion of the distance between South Pole and Mecca to the distance between both poles is again 1.618.

The miracle has not been completed yet; The Golden Ratio Point of the World is in Mecca city according to map of latitude and longitude which is the common determinant of mankind for location.

The proportion of eastern distance to the western distance of Mecca’s solstice line is again 1.618. Moreover,  the proportion of the distance from Mecca to the solstice line from the west side and perimeter of world at that latitude is also surprisingly equal to the golden ratio, 1.618. The Golden Ratio Point of the World is always within the city borders of Mecca, within the Holy Region that includes Kaaba according to all mapping systems despite minor kilometrical variations in their estimations.

Premium Member Handle With Loving Care, For Fragile Contest

Born with a complex like a tormented fugitive in a constant flight from a life of acceptance, his Life is filled with questions and complexities. There is no room 

for blame. In a secret place, he was crafted skillfully; non are the same.*
Stored away in my garage are many items of relative values. Some have little 

to no value and are pleading for me to  tossed them. Others are just put in containers relative to their size and shape. Some totes contain various items 

with distinct labels of identity. Some are boxed; some are in totes; some are very clearly 'marked'.  Fragile people are Like boxes of beautiful jars and 

choice pottery. Such ones must be cushioned  and shielded, with postings, signs, and markings, less they be broken in a thousand pieces. There is a                                                                   

Divine Mandate requiring us to be sensitive and protective of them.                                                                       To do less is to be a lesser human.  Always present is that inability to stand                                                    

up to conflict and withstand insensitive people.  He cries easily and hurts                                                       badly.  He requires  special touches of love and human kindness. The 'marked 

ones'  are so designated, not because he is more important; but rather, because he is so very fragile, and must be handled with care. The one who 

would dare to bully or mistreat him will himself be uncovered and revealed as one with much disfunction and sickness. No elasticity; No bouncing ability; No 

flexibility; as if crafted in a sea of glass. He is entrenched with fragility. Finished and matured glass is highly useful, but is very vulnerable and easily 

cracked and broken.  Some of us are strong and solid like a rock. Some of us are weak and vulnerable like sheets of glass. We all are made in God's image 

and likeness. You and I have an intrinsic worth of high and equal value. May we be as HE who notices every falling bird**, and embraces us as HIS friends.

Premium Member The List

According to Matthew's recording of the Gospel story, Jesus' genealogy consists of a total of 47 names.*  Four of them are women.  Of the 47 names, I am familiar with 23 of them. That is less than half the total. Of the 23 with whom I am knowledgeable, very little is said of 6 of them.  Most, but not all of this list consists of The Messianic linage. The others like Zara and Urias are on the list are there because they are a part of the story.  They are important because they are linked to the story, not to the Messiah's ancestry. Who was Azor, and what did he do?  Solomon I know; but who was Akim, and what did he do?

As the Christmas Season begins, I am reflecting upon matters pertaining to the birth of Christ. In so during, I began to consider our roll in God's Master Plan and our contentment, or the lack thereof, in letting God decide who becomes simply a person mentioned in the story or one who 'stands out' as renown, and plays a large roll in the unveiling of God's Great Plan for mankind.

And so I am forced to ask myself a few questions.  Am I okay with relative invisibility with no one knowing my name?  Are I okay with being someone name Ram or Shealtiel or Mattan?  Am I happy with who I am and the purpose for which God has chosen for me?   Are I willing to let God decide?                                                                      

My thoughts regarding this list are simple, but as I meditated upon this list I was moved and  stirred by the fact that each person in the Messianic linage contributed by procreating equally down through the centuries and eventually brought forth the Master Plan of God.  Each of them was vital whether their name was Nahshon or David, Tamar or Ruth, Elihud or Judah.

May we be counted among those who simply do what the Lord told and led us to do with little regard for what great things others might be doing.  May our names hold firmly to their place on God's listing whether or not they ever grace the pages of any literary piece.  Indeed, may we anticipate our names being in the Lamb's Book of Life.

Relative to the Christmas Season, in January as we look back toward Christmas and the needy, may it be said of us,  "They have done what they could". **

Premium Member Weather Forecast

Groundhog Day derives from a Pennsylvania Dutch superstition that if the groundhog emerges from his burrow on February 2nd and sees his shadow due to clear weather, it will return back into his den and winter will persist for six more weeks.  However, if he emerges and does not see his shadow due to cloudiness, the spring season will arrive early.  So for 2018, on Groundhog Day,  "Will he or will he not see his shadow?"  Following the lines of the seemingly illogical, I forecast that on Feb. 2nd it will be cloudy, and Mr. Groundhog will not see his shadow.  Thus, spring will arrive early this year.  That whole groundhog thing doesn't make sense to me, but I do believe            that spring is coming early in 2018.  I'm thinking that the snow, ice, mudslides, sub-zero temperatures and the like will have lost their punch by mid to late March.

I forecast that although there will be lots of devastating tornadoes this spring, they will be totally upsetting but not so record-breaking.  Although there might be a selfie or two of someone with an approaching funnel cloud in the distance, there will be fewer lives lost due to more shelters being built and improved warning systems.  


The 2017 hurricane season was unusual and is unlikely to repeat itself.  The hurricanes picked their paths and packed a powerful punch. I forecast tamer and fewer hurricanes during the 2018 season.  I don't think that mother nature is angry with us, nor am I certain that the 2017 season was indicative of the wrath of God as some seem to believe.  He has plenty of reasons to be, but I don't think that our Maker is angry with us.

The temperatures will continue to be higher in general.  The fire season will be normal to slightly above normal relative to the intensity and multiple outbreaks.  Also, I suspect that people will make better adjustments regarding their environment relative to forestation.

Our prayer should be that there be less spring rain.  In some parts of the country, if the heavy snowpacks begin to melt combined with heavy rains, that could be catastrophic.  It would be a perfect storm for massive flooding.  I anticipate more flooding in 2018 especially in the mid-western and eastern states as a result of the heavy snows this winter.  May God forbide the perfect storm.

Stampede of Spilling

Spilling a stampede of ink's prisms in brilliant
 words infusing a Poet's thoughts.
Conveying creativity to provocative
 imaginations .

Implicitly complying to isolating reality
Creating new dimensions where
Clock's spilling time's perceptions living
the moment of now forever. 
Clockwise wisdom from wicked word’s
of a Crazy mind. 

Philosophically our minds process symphonies
of orchestrated word's allowing cognitive man
 to stay in harmony with the mind & body
 a climax of our souls.
 Mind the symphony insane insanity 
orchestrated by the body in climax.

Words infuse a person's thoughts.
Emotions are expressed by the pitch of spoken word's. 
Words communicate & body language speaks 
emotions relative to the words 
infused of a person's thinking.
 

Wisdom can be found reading in between the lines.
A paragraph of powerful catchphrases speaks 
melodies of a catchy tune & flowers of imaginations
bloom. 

Philosophy is ergonomics of the mind.
Urban legends in the suburbs.
Sounds of absurd check out the proverbs. 

Cognition is a subject of cognitive man.
Premonitions are permissions of man's cognition.
Relative to the fixed position.
Precognition is a psychic's dream
an heard but not seen.

Culture is a reflection of society's ideology
 theories of mythology in series of theologies. 
Hypothetical theories query a qued question. 

The clocks bleeding times perception
 of dimensions in galaxies 
light year's away. 

Romeo’s an architect of accentuating 
love's aesthetics in romance. 

Twice pleasing to appeasing
sentiments in orchestra's 
of delinquent eye's to witnesses. 

Accentuating abstracts in non-conformities
designs contemporary aesthetics 
in modern times. 

Contemplating exquisite elegance unique 
powers doubling my mind's conspiracy 
of forwarding complex sediments.

Orchestrated the dynamics  time playing 
noteworthy scales of creativity

All the syllables in a kilogram of lines, 
echoing grams of killer dope words whispering 
persuasive complexity. 

A mythic's chanting elegant wizardrtrii 
enchanting ageless philosophies elegance of
life's angelic orchids of ageless wisdom's.

Premium Member Six Relatives

‘can’t change your family but you are free to choose your friends’

Michael’s brother is demented and only remembers the distant past

his parents are long dead they died in a car crash at illegitimate speed

every now and then he visits their graves and leaves a Match Box car

instead of flowers and lights a joint for Peace just to annoy them a bit

illegal traffic is one of the burdens of modern society and transport


luckily for him he fathered three children who don’t know what hit them

when he is diagnosed with cancer but they promise to look after him

a fortunate story of love and the transmission of generational kindness

life’s hardships are relative and sometimes a concept of irrational thought

now it stands him in good stead to have followed a path of emotions


Michael has chosen his own relative friends at free will and he

cherishes them all in equal proportions and knows how to relate


            	the Liberty to decide when to give and when to receive

		undeterred by strict norms and unauthorized obligations
	

			a notion of Justice derived from virtues and a moral law

			from within along fairness equity rectitude without fail


				Honesty in all his endeavours as much as the very truth

				to be spoken when silence and falsification where easier


			unmistakeable Charity in the face of a self-righteous world

			requesting nothing in return because he is privileged by birth


		Communication in deeds and in words without anger or venom

		because once acted or spoken it is difficult to retract a position


most of all he is only too well aware that Perspectives are contingent

as well as embedded in context but that he can craft from his own Self


he Reads Writes Feels Reasons and Stakes his claim at times Surrenders

connects what seems to be relative but does not change on his last journey


Michael’s brother does not suffer from the loss of engaging with his relatives

his parents died a pain free death at the crossroad of the reaper’s stark scythe

and his children will tell his story outlook and attitude to relatives and death

he is a blessed man and he keeps a small vial of morphine for when time calls


his compassionate wife who by law is not a relative will help with the plunger
