My Princess

Moonlight across the tranquil ocean, 
Will provide jewels for your crown.
Deep cyan colors of the sea in motion, 
Will create blue velvet for a royal gown.

I will create a vision tender with grace. 
Such expectations I have, you’ll be mine.
Resplendently beautiful, so fair of face.
My Princess of loveliness, a lady so fine.

A prima donna of style as you gayly dance.
Beguiling as you converse so witty and clever.
For me there’ll be sweet innuendos of romance.
You’ll win hearts but I will be your love forever.

Dearest, only a figment of imagination it seems,
And sadly we will be together only in my dreams.

Wems Henry Temmy Psalm 59


Over the moon, words abandon the sky
Sky in its own loneliness knows the game isn't over
Get to untie that logic behind such faithful scope 
Scope of practice beeping naturally smooth to get 
Know, whether or not the night is bright, moon remains bright 
Bright the horizon eyes can't view, doubtful miss to know
Cough, cough the same old way in style 
Style got is a littler good than touchy cough 
Learned anew to travel in the midst of emergency
Emergency furnished to defeat the purpose not well learned 

Beneath the ground, silence roar in darkness
Darkness kisses each moment time drops one beneath 
Growing up days before revelation really unique
Unique but knew plague is no more growing
Unless we have found wrath in hidden Meadows
Meadows are cool but if hot maybe it had, unless
For all I know, I now know that it's nothing
Nothing but wish to know reasons OF WHAT FOR 
Then I'll be there to pick up my key rule
Rule of law- ruling at every angle then 

I used to see, how blind my eyes have being 
Being able to consider others and not always I 
You too may be we once lived there for PEACE
Peace of what s/he can't actually say of you
But everyone do know and wish it continues
Continues to be a part of us in every sphere but
Maybe we should never wish to have such nice thought
Thought of miserable change in air, maybe
Dangerous weather considered not good enough
Enough is capability to gear the flight so dangerous

Features are awesome, but to describe each is tedious
Tedious to analyze the info lying in cool features

Somehow It Seems I Forgot

Somehow it seems I forgot

Why should I write each emotion I’m feeling 
when no one will stroll to my side
An unending song filled with passion and yearning 
now praying for one to confide
Dreaming in colors that glow in a meadow
where butterflies float on the breeze
Alongside a river of flowing desires 
meandering under the trees

Why take my pen from its brown leather casing 
and place it on top of the page
Spilling some ink in a nice cursive fashion 
just ends up revealing my age
Where no one will read as they go passing lightly 
in search of the next future star
While here I will sit at a desk made a plastic 
away from wherever you are

Can you explain in a poetic sentence 
why words can’t be read like they feel
Is it a style or a strange way to tell us 
that lacks in enormous appeal
Comments won’t come if you stand slinging arrows 
with targets right there tween the eyes
So it would seem that the retaliation 
would come in the form of replies  

Don’t put too much in these phrases I’m writing 
for I am just bored half to death
Wondering if I would post something stupid 
now pausing to inhale a breath
Would some of you come just to see what I’m thinking 
or figure my thoughts matter not
I had an ending to this when I started 
but somehow it seems I forgot

~~La Danse de la Poesie~~
   The Dance of Poetry

A great dancer knows, the pain and practice
Of stretching, all the body, every limb.
A great dancer never disses a great dancer
as a lesser being.
I will never be a Baryshnikov with divine
style and grace.
I am lucky, if I get my feet in first place!


I am but a beginning poet, like a dancer who, 
knows it's best to follow master poet's cues.

Without reading and knowing classic poetry,
I'm just a punk rock poet blowing my own horn. 
at the poetry tree.
Dissing past masters as ignorant will in no
way improve my performance.
No, not in the least.
So if I want to tour jate or batmanteaue,to
fly with art across the page to you~
The classic poets, indeed will I read.
And never insult them as lesser than me.
That's cutting my own poetic brain and
not allowing the fullness of my growth
In this grand terrain, we call, poetry.

Jesus died and rose
He did for sins of this world
Our hope rest on Him.

So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

-“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
John 3:16 (NIV)

- Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer
Romans 12: 12 ( NIV )

-The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”

Premium Member My 1970's Experience

Wearing whirls, swirls, paisley too.
A jazzy, snazzy, bell bottomed you.
Slinky hip huggers with large chunky belts in style.
White Go Go boots that never walk a country mile.

Faux fringed jackets, fake fur vests, tall high boots too.
Gypsy skirts with mismatched patterns of every hue.
Please let your belly button show, my dear.
Wear the tightest jeans to accent your rear.

As long as your jeans flare out as wide as a skirt
And drag along enticingly in Woodstock’s dirt.
Homemade embroidery on blouses, and dainty braids.
Unless you deem to do an Afro, beautifully made.

Tight mini-skirts that show off your thighs.
Nehru jackets with high necks are a prize.
Headbands made to match every outfit.
The 70’s was strutted. Don’t you doubt it!

Vietnam War in black and white, every night on TV
Burning bras seemed okay for everybody but me.
Hippies and flower children seemed pretty wild.
To me in the Midwest, pregnant with child.

Check Mate

Go ahead and make the first move, 
but take care 
One or two spaces so I can move 
to my square
Game of life, I’m queen defending 
my king
Pawns, so many seem such 
insignificant a thing 
I’ll stay in my castle with my 
bishop for a lil while 
As my knights ride to fight the 
enemy in style
I’ll rush about you see when my 
king Is in need
Watch for your next move, hope 
I don’t misread
Sacrificing so many pieces attempting 
to defend
Not a game it’s so real, you see 
I won’t pretend
Soon the enemy will deplete my 
trusted army 
As they attempt to not let 
anyone harm me 
My role important, my moves 
so unrestricted 
Game of chance while their moves 
I’ve predicted 
I hate losing pieces but it’s for 
me the Queen 
End goal is to sit beside my 
king ruling supreme 
I’m very loyal down to the very 
end, I will fight 
Even when I watch fall my last 
trusted knight
Each piece to the end will 
fight so valiantly 
Dying a noble death against those 
who challenge me 
I must keep my kingdom from 
being overthrown 
A mind game challenging so many 
great unknowns
Hoping my king is truly the one, 
and its fate 
Because if not...it’s games over, 
check mate

A Contemplative Sojourn Through the Breeze

A Contemplative Sojourn Through The Breeze

The continuity of perspective required for accurate conclusions 
The ingenuity of the reflective inspired by immaculate infusions 
The co-morbidity of defective desires for considerate inclusions 
The plain fluidity of the introspective fires of commensurate confusion

Why does the momentary delight fade with contemplation ?
How do we constantly engage to fight instead of inspire by elevation?
Why does she remain so utterly contrite when faced with adulation?
Who do they call upon during the night for their sacred consummation?

Awash with notions of consideration and correction 
The lost devotions of invocations and invention 
The frost that’s frozen upon the intonations of his intentions
The cost of the broken connotations of what it means to defy convention 

To revoke what has been given so freely and without shame
To envoke the art of living when one is refusing to play the game 
The bespoke art of precision as they are refuting the burden of blame

Renegade perspectives of innovation and pure style 
A tyrrade of correctives and incantations that beguile 
To invade the environmental incentives of the plantations on the River Nile 
As they pervade the vast directives  of the ramifications of their denial 

Convoluted insinuations of thought that permeate time 
Polluted imitations that have been bought by the unrefined
Disputed limitations of a population in decline 
Refuted deliberations on the observations of these signs

Slippery Reins

Once when I was a child
My reins were held by my parents
This pony once led by their rants 

Now that my mustang is old
My reins still slip from my grasp
I go where this beast goes

Divorced from my old mare
I am no longer noosed
Years of service make it wary

When my child returns at half-time
He takes my reins playfully
Taming my mustang without a whine

When he dismounts for her
I lose sight of my destination
Someday, I'll bridle without a bother

Then I won’t be ridden by my beast
The saddle will find its place
Someday my racing heart will cease 

Together we’ll limp to the finish line
Our eyes on the journey before us
Not fixing my gaze side to side

This bronco will find its stride
Confident in my equestrian skills
I’ll cross the line in an easy ride

Then no longer reign or be reined
Ready for the glue factory in style
As Jesus cries he is finished

Wems Henry Temmy Psalm 40


There is a time in life that swims 
To chill, to relax, to enjoy everyday
There is nothing bad having whims 
If you aren't by chance going to delay

Not until you say or bid goodbye
Growing up stagnancy do decry
A stylish illusion fantasized 
Without scheme, you've synthesized 
To comply with defeat's spy

Forgive the unknown, that do deny
Gear up the style, that do standby

Leave dreaming in fantasy land 
To win, to celebrate, to toast right
As night is made for romance unplanned
Songs command acts under moonlight

With the cheerful malice of trial
Yet fear dreadful respect in denial
Filming failure in chance check
That placed tight hands on your neck
To testing your stand in pure retrial

Forgive letting go, that sings of futility
Gear up patience, that chorus feasibility

The air waves; from the palm tree so high
That makes you dream of the sky
Is a possible game not tough
Courage is what's not enough
To clinically mount the air in your style 

Not until you say or bid goodbye
Growing up stagnancy do decry
A stylish illusion fantasized 
Without scheme, you've synthesized 
To comply with defeat's spy

Forgive the unknown, that do deny
Gear up the style, that do standby

 
Troubles melt away as they light your way
To keeping you on the rail of success each day
To possess fading sorrow
And reshape glorious morrow
Linking plans of grace to focus of may

With the cheerful malice of trial
Yet fear dreadful respect in denial
Filming failure in chance check
That placed tight hands on your neck
To testing your stand in pure retrial

Forgive letting go, that sings of futility
Gear up patience, that chorus feasibility

Amen!
