Premium Member The Balance of Power

Without a doubt Life is absolutely filled
With moments of the sublime
Moments which come from somewhere
And somehow never ever really disappear
Even when something else comes along
Something coarse and loud
Able to drown out everything before
The sublime is still there
Patiently waiting, unflappable, nonjudgemental
Waiting till the room stills 
And its own light can be seen again.
Yin and yang you may say
Or something closer to home
The mood swings of a child
Or anxious broken hearted lover
But still only the passing phases
That make a life not only interesting
But sublimely worth living.

Premium Member Joyous Christmas

“Oh holy night…” “All is calm, all is bright…”
Divine hymns echo soothing chimes of grace
Reverberating hopefulness’ delight…
Amidst miraculous truth, faith does embrace
Christmas is the Lord’s gift to human race.

Prince of peace came for Emmanuel* role 
Serving as loving Saviour with His best
Eternal life He offered freely whole
Ensuring triumph of heavenly quest…
Christmas brings hope midst giving-sharing zest.

Festive celebration, sublimely grand
Christmas finds its essence in thanksgiving bliss
Radiating peace onward to promised land
That cheers everyone, being Brod and Sis
With kindness, mercy, care no one can miss.

“Joy to the world, the Lord is come!” kids shout
Carols linger once more, and soon to fade
Yet, Christmas spirit still prevails, no doubt
While revival worship reigns, being prayed
Praising CHRIST for Whom season is arrayed. 

*Matthew 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

Premium Member On First Reading Euclid, Young Bertrand Russell Is Forever Transformed By Mathematics


“Is 'Mathematics...not only [a] Truth,
     but [a] supreme beauty—a beauty cold
and austere, like that of sculpture [uncouth
     to men for whom this concept is too bold],
without appeal to any part of our weaker nature,
     without the gorgeous trappings of painting
or music, yet [is still more] sublimely pure,
     and capable of a stern [un-feinting]
perfection such as only the greatest art 
     can show?'” So, thus geometrized Euclid
(to Russell's youthful mind and fervent heart),
     and taught,—by a draped, stone caryatid
at the Library of Alexandria;
from whence “The Elements” spread without lemma!

regrouping
i take a deep breath
like nothing else matters
owning the moment

basking in its magnificence
relishing in the focus
the intensity of being present
the pulsating rhythm of consciousness
and synchronized openness

making peace with time
letting go of the past
of what’s ahead of what’s next
experiencing life in segments

having sublimely discovered
the secret to stretching time
measuring life in instants
and gaining a feeling of…

if not control at least harmony
as it becomes a way of life
showing me what’s most rewarding

Did you hear about that politician doing something illegal

..

…pick one
Triden or Bump
The or wins every time
All the new politicians 
wore new suits
but everyone ones starving
Tell you what it is a good strategy 
Less to rule
My queen was Freddie
No kings in Scotland
and your creepy brother
needs locked up
And mate seriously you need to go to speck( was gonna do a bit about tunnel vision then I remembered)
savour how sublimely this line turns into rhy
Me a name you call yourself
Breaking rules
Every law was flawed
Thor was sawing a puss ycat kin half
I think I might write a false history book
where a.I. Primary purpose is to begin the creation of 
humanity so that they create a.I.
They know the difference between a duck
One of its legs is the same as the other one
Why not Robyn Hood
I wanna be the first woman to play Batman
We got here marvellously 
Bye


Premium Member Lacustrine Opera


In bejeweled jade landscape
the topaz terrain rolls
as wondrous waves,  
undulates with
sculpted panorama 
of captivating cadence,
entrenches in earthen frame
the sprawling shape 
of a placid lake,
sublimely sparkling,
the shining sapphire face 
looking up entranced
toward the cerulean sky,
spread serene on
boundless blankness.

The southern zephyr
whispers enticing melody
to the rhapsodic ripples,
rolling aquatic rhythm, 
intensely passionate,
stretching in seraphic span  
of self-centric array,
sliding on slithering shadows 
of the dancing trees,
lining the contorted contours
of the splashing shore,
emerald adorned.

Malachite lotus leaves 
float flamboyant
with pulsating fervor,
the ruby flush 
of full bloom
makes the collage 
of fiery fresco
with fanning feathers 
of flaming flamingos,
their ballerina legs wading
the lazuline waters 
in avian grace,
supple napes swiveling
in charismatic concerto 
of aquatic ballet,
rapturous recital
performed unruffled
in hypnotic gleam
of the setting sun,
chromatic spectrum
composes the sonata 
for lacustrine opera.

Premium Member A Shade From the Past

Just as days long ago, when decorum resolved, 
before composure, and poise,.. were corsages, unknown
Where propriety mattered, and was favored as gold,
high society, has gathered to flavor their tea
                                                      
There's a trellis, embraced by a rose climbing vine
Places are set, for dining in jade
beneath shadows that stretch under arthritic old trees
While slivers of sunshine, squeeze through the branches
of silver leafed limbs, in magnolia bloomed shade
 
Tea will be served, by large knuckled hands 
at several round tables dressed with Swiss lace designs
Wearing lavender silk is our proper Grand Dame'
who fits her surroundings, as vintage as wine

Voices are lilting like the birds in the trees
Laughter and chatter, mingle with soft, summer breezes 

 
A bouquet of old friends, around a few scattered tables. 
Silver coifed hairdos, to make celebration
Crepe myrtle and wrinkles, beneath ashes and maples
Water cress munchies, and triangle creations

Sweet honey-suckle, tucked over the porches.…
Rose petal blossoms, are painted on china 
Bridge cards, tumble by Blue Willow dishes
Biscuits from England, crumble sublimely

Large bosoms bouncing, and big floppy hats
Gossip dished up with lemon-sliced frowns
Up in the tree is the neighbor's calico cat
who catches a glance, and a chance to crawl down

Are they ladies of leisure, from a time that is lost?
Or a painting I've seen on the wall from the past?

Premium Member Lake

“In serene nature the sailor in me sails on winds of ecstasy
toward divine tranquility.” – By Poet

In the enchanting emerald landscape
the terrain undulates like jade waves 
in the panorama of pristine cadence,
the entrenched elegance of earthen embrace
shapes a serene lake.

Sublimely sprawling and sparkling,
its radiant sapphire face looks up
toward the cerulean sky, 
entranced by its reflection.

The serenading southern breeze
whispers a mesmerizing music
to the dancing ripples,
waltzing toward the supine shore
with intensely passionate rhythm.

The glitter of the rising sun
shines on the slithering shadows of trees,
lining the contours of the bending banks,
imaged on the tranquil fluid mirror.

The wavering lotus leaves afloat,
oscillate with pulsating fervor,
the full bloom scarlet flush of flower
makes the collage of a fiery tapestry
with the feathers of flaming flamingos.

Their ballerina legs wade
in transparent water with avian grace,
their supple napes swivel
in an artistic show of aquatic ballet.

In the hypnotic gleam of the setting sun,
I watch enthralled the opera in the lake.

Premium Member Time To Come And Go


Luminous lucent mind 
longingly mystique,
made of multi-facetted crystal
of gorgeous gem,
shines sublimely 
with translucent thoughts, 
glistened by soul-suffusing 
sensuous rays,
emanating from 
efflorescent fountain
of ebullient emotion
unrestrained. 

Clear of cluttering cloud
of secret qualm, 
diaphanous psyche
resolutely revolves 
in ordained orbit,
shines as a star  
in enlightened trajectory,
away from abyss 
of ambiguous angst
unrelenting.

The meadow of mind, 
clear of convoluted 
shadows of confusion,
glows in the transit 
of fleeting moments, 
latticed with luster
of desiccating dew drops
of passion perception,
sparkling with sequins 
of transient euphoria,
conveys with cadence
of evanescent radiance
the rational notion
undeniable....

everything has a time 
to come and go.

Types of Taking

Time's admirer hijacks sections
Rips strings of delicious from fattest flesh
Imbibes fibres provided sublimely 
Licks fingers with shameless relish 

Nature's passenger adequately dazzled
Rides intention piloted by passivity
Waterwheel which in turn feeds many 
Delivers ceaseless needed energy

Rise makes way to fall: a pair inevitable
Weaving a trail mountainside as goat
Supplied segment of cycle's spectacle
Leaving views acceptance of what follows

Leaf litter tickets event for fantastic next 
Mouldering grows mushrooms quickly
Spring brings surprise unrivalled gifts
Finds a shape, adopts a place unchecked 

Become slowly resplendent in your realm
Adoration wells from inclusive depiction
Autumn acknowledges drifting's worth
Inactivity observes thriving of parallels
