Long Tumults Poems

Mascara smudged – through the tears
I see the rumbling truth being preached
By silent prayers, gentling peace…

Doubting the whispers of yesterday’s dream,
I fall to my knees, murmuring – tender
Feelings bleeding through veins filled with 
Temptations, exposing...

Nowhere now, Geinere
awaited her day of 
unrightly judgment,
her only hopes of 
victory brought thoughts
of remorse and 
further difficulties
for herself and her dying
love.  No embrace
could be made.
Her silence would 
remain, for accusations
of such made, was...

Quiet thunder
Sovereign prince crowned head
First Father Righteousness lead
Nazareth a place in Israel
Blessed named NaZaire
Name NaZaire from Latin Nazareus derived from
Run NaZaire Run
 
The Earth is your ball


Calm man, stille 'calm, silent, still
Populace wonders, Quiet thunder
Can’t...

I too have come to a blank wall to tell
In sorrow's thronging pangs my sad farewell.
I too toll my heart with memory's bell
The mortal flesh is a fake citadel ...

Wandering the roads.  It has me under a spell even at this juncture in my life.
Even when spiked brambles
 scrape my eyelids or those tender foot soles are  being  twisted by tooth-like...

You entered my home, as a new bride, snow-white embellished!
I was in my bride-groom-dress, looked royal and unblemished!
All so, due to crude cultures, where marriage is a system,
Where prestige and status overpowered love and wisdom!

Though,...

In tumults of time and forgetfulness, in the hidden frenzy of a heart beating faintly,
Invoke the unseen magic, unravel silk works in the deep night,
Tame as a magus who dares, let fall veils of silence,
Breathe...

I want to be heard by the Lord,
I want Him to listen to my every word,
To receive this my heartfelt prayer,
I need to know that He is there.

I shout my words o’er roaring seas,
Hear me...

Midst mild and wild tumults like eddy, vortex, swirl, and whirl,
A maelstrom is a summation of curl and twirl and hurl;
Weather and season get amalgamated with currents,
Winds, storms, gales, squalls, haboobs, and wuthers become deterrents;
Vacuum,...

Her lust stirs my  wanton endlessly.
She is the darkness residing 
within my soul.
My embodiment, her plaything.
A slave to her seduction, 
she is a master of evolution.

Like a subtle muse 
in Eden.  The darkest
secrets...

Let's say we have capitulated 
yes, let's say we have succumbed
to their whimsical naivété and inane wisdom
Let us assume that it is all phoney
that it is a bogus hoax-filled folklore
We shall now pretend that we...

Nibbling at my toes,
whilst preparing my legs -
drilling through to the deepest of marrow within;
a burning consumes my body.
The old familiar monster returns
once more sinking its teeth 
sharply into my ample buttocks;
whilst diligently slicing into...

Nigeria our great and beloved motherland,
where multitudes of tribes unitedly stand.
Our land of hope by two rivers divided,
with lush vegetation by nature provided.

Nigeria our home of people resilient.
A land of great icons in works diligent.
We...

SUNSHINE SMILES   By James Edward Lee Sr.

When the tumults of pressures
Tornado reactions
God's got the problem solved in the darkness

Sunshine smiles

When the clouds group together
And there's no way around
God's got the problem solved in...

As the tides of rapture,
heavenly bliss,
the scars of yesteryear,
amidst... a gentle harbor,
this sorrowful treason.
A misery of new. . . 
tremulous fashion.

As the embers 
of Autumn, 
scarlet tumults, 
the essence of
divine season,
our virtuous faults.

Blazing lusts,
the calling...

Instead of smiling ,

She was crying

A moment of silence replace tumults of joy;

Thus the day i was born,

A day when the sun sat on the nook of horizon east,

Thus when the angels,

The lords sung benediction...

Give me a smile, that I may build on your assurance,
Kiss me, that I may have to thy kind heart entrance,
Love me less, and see how tumultuous life could be,
Give thy command, and see my...

"Oh beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain."

Tales from ancestral lore decree
How journeys prompt discovery.

Floods of memories
The tumults, the peace
The pitter-patter on rooftops
The passion, in dollops
The continuous beat
Driving away the heat
The smell of rain
The overflowing drain
Emotions uncontrollable
The storms, the lull
Inside, her scent strong
Outside, Nature’s song
Past recreated
Once again, nothing hid
The...

O how I pine your lips to feel again
To sip the honeyed fountain of your youth
And let your milk wash me afresh like rain
Cuddling to its breast the wet blistered root
I want to disrobe you...

A cloud of perfume lavishes your atmosphere,
  A perfect tranquil ether in the open mind,
Words become so hard to say when you are near,
  I wish myself beside you as the days unwind.

DIMENSIONS.


To think of you
Is not to think of you
Tonight.

A single point diverges
Into dimensions of horizon
Subterranean reasons within
Causing rippled symptoms.

Singular diversions
Of narcissus nihilty
A muted presence
Perhaps will be sufficient
For directing love into some clarity.

A life perhaps you...
