in the seasons of His hands
where He pulls in the strings 
of all His puppets 
calling in cold legions 
in a bitter Winter bleeding
before Spring arrives again

In Days of Robin Hood

In days of yore,

A merry band of outlaws
Rambled throughout Sherwood forest
(Home of the Major Oak,

There was a large family,
who never needed sympathy.
They had some lacks and doubts,
but they never needed handouts.

Local newspaper needs a finance and poetry page.

Successful people,
Who are disliked by others,
Must account for actions.

My Americanized Horn Haiku.
Usually no caps of punctuation.

Those who want you to
Account for things you have done;
Always be truthful.

Beating around...

My words are so deep that when i speak i create 
a void in your mind. 
It's like a poetic poison running through the veins of 
your membrane; 
Paralyzing your state to maintain... 
You can't...

Each animal species has 
its own wisdom to share; 
the human species ego though, 
doesn’t seem to be aware.

Each species has its social structure, 
an education it gladly shares.  
All nurturing and loving,
