Premium Member The Bells of Saint Mary's
~Bells of Saint Mary's~

Oh, the joy of being young!
When those phenomenal bells
so joyfully rung!
And I, in patent leather Mary
Janes,
Ate Tootsie Rolls as if in a now
forgotten dream.
Staring at the mosaic, stunning
tall window panes.

How we loved...

Royal Clown
I used to walk heedlessly, that’s why I met people vibrating at low frequency.
Eventually, I had to find my own authenticity, stop moving ahead needlessly.
To do so, I had to acknowledge myself, find out what...

Nice Try, Gundagai
A bloke who hails 
from New South Wales 
will know of Gundagai. 
Some guy found gold, 
or so we're told, 
in days now long gone by. 

I grew up there 
without a care 
when both...

It Is What It Is
11/28/16


Thrive survive and live

It is what it is
A day of nothing or success using sieves
Carbonation in the soda pop making it fizz
Distinguished areas for hers and his
Individuals involved or infatuated with the showbiz
Don't get in...

Premium Member Song of Spring
Spring in her step, she’s stepped into spring;
Long silence lapsing, she’s longing to sing.

Keying the lock, she unlocks the keys,
Soothing sweet sonnets, soft melodies.

Tuning her pitch, she pitches her tune;
Heavenly choirs, splendidly crooned.

Flirting with flowers,...

In Whispering Mists, Dying Gods There Grieve

Within Shadows casting forth in blackened glow,
secret havens hide in heaps of aged dust,
there beastly beasts born and wickedly grow
far beneath a granite hardened evil crust.

Within corridors in ancient...

Cliche'
let us say the summer that year
was a cliché to its lovers.
And its once open windows stood 
firm
against Prying Eyes.
Perhaps the silver 
smoke of automobiles rose toward the waiting sun that
climbed so eagerly. we didn’t...

The Best Way Goes Slow
(Wems Henry Temmy  Psalm 84)

Slow commercial car drivers are best picks
How passengers want haste bring conflicts

Slow cement-sand mixers are amazing
Other than impatient fast mixers cum razing

But slow sales make traders crazy 
Defining the efforts...

State of Fate
Through the faded door of never mind.
Couldn't find the button to rewind.
A lost cause that was left behind.
Two stars that just never aligned.

The what if's stayed where no one looked.
One little taste and then you're...

Rhythmic Perfection (Anapestic Trimeter)
There's a river that twists in the mind
that I plunder and ravish with sieves,
on crusades to the summit of rhyme
where my Phoenix of tropes and schemes live.

In a war to free diction's fair Queen
where the...

Footprints On Sand
Time passing along, memories of days grand
However hard I try to grip, it sieves through my hand
Through crevices between my fingers that once formed a fist
What exists today is bitter sadness; my life's gist

This Twinning Set
this twinning set,
of urchin's smile reflected,
by stale fathers turned to murk,
knapping flint saturated by eons,
gripped saltwise in bitter steel neglected,
     high voices cry "banal!" and flow red tears,

As I travel through the tumultuous sea of life,
When turned and tossed by the tides of strife, 
When breakers rise and pounce to threaten me,
Hope descends on me as a beacon to make me free.

Bright and Spritly
Along the road on my way
I looked up, walking away
Boughs of yellow flowers so bright
They were a heavenly sight
Hanging , from the lined trees
With zooming around of bees
The passing cars threw fumes
Left unaffected seemed the...

Whisper
come dream the moonlit night,
light enchanting softly,
belfry tolls time between,
so keen the heart awakes,
forsakes its own calling,
falling for sirens, still,
      she whispers to my soul,
bed, no solace gives,
sieves of time...

THE BRIGHTEST STAR

To view the brightest violent star, 
that glints and glitters from it's scar.  
It's life is burning, blurred and far, 
we cannot know, just where they are. 

The brightest star takes breath...

When it’s obvious, science is the answer.”
After countless hours, I realize the theories
Are like sieves and will not hold water.

Night Time
It's three sticks come at One:Eleven.
The Whet Owls' sight a-glare.
The forest black to touch the sky
where moonlight's blue to pair.

With crisp cool air between the trees.
Smells floating on their leaves.
The Pine scent rolling over dew

Tenth door at fontanel receives
in-pouring of God’s grace sublime,
thwarted by ego that deceives,
letting not soul heavenward climb.

When heart’s tranquil and thoughts recede,
tenth door at fontanel receives
magnetism that bliss beats so lead,
free from our mind that...
