A Perilous Journey
Even on the darkest days when the odds are stacked heavily against us, we should never give up on hope.
Quote By Poet.
We were heading for better life to the new world on the sailing ship 'Athlone',
After about five weeks disaster struck, and the main mast and sails were lost.
For two weeks we drifted aimlessly

Chivalry
Coupled, they brave the storm
and critical exposure
forced by the storm to form
a perilous enclosure.
Under its salvo, they
press shivering shapes together
to limit the foray
of such unholy weather.
Embedded thus, they dare defy
the higher forces. Yet
his chivalry is impotent.
For nature soaks her wet.

This is your watch woman on the wall informing you that a joint Democratic/Republican
Federal Trade Commission is in the name of 'digital equity' going to be policing our
internet and thus eliminating free speech.

Au Revoir Oh Perilous Freedom
Au revoir oh perilous freedom...
Since pledging my troth
to the missus July 25th, 1996
after the comma error
punctuated mein kampf with disequilibrium.
Ever since the notions
of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness
coalesced within the mindscape
attributed to one
or more anonymous forebears
way before the advent of civilization
when written language preserved
(*****sapiens communicated
virtual primal groans and grunts),
nevertheless witnessing inchoate awakening

Perilous Times
Miracle Man
8/11/2023
Today we’re facing challenges,
beyond our imagination.
We seek God’s face in prayer,
and wait for God’s cessation.
Votes are sold for the prospect,
of getting something free.
Electing those to some office,
who never seem to agree.
We take the life of the unborn,
and morals aren’t as has been.
To finance life improvements,
we legalize all sorts of sin.
As we bravely face

Perilous Flight
A Perilous flight
The flight from Hong Kong to Manila had more
passengers than seats
Give room to pregnant women, the stewardess shouted
I was in a deep sleep
In the aisle, people sat like rowers, bent heads as the plane took off
three-hour flight air in the cabin stuffy
when the heroic had given up their seat for any woman whether
she

The Perilous Tickling of Shallow Waters
In the softest sponge, a ripples caress
in a toadstools dress, in just one pins point of pain
danger,
with its tiny fangs, smiles just for us,
its toothy grin lurks within.
Come, let us trip the fantastic light-footed and dancy.
Care not, nor care for the dragon in its rainbow lair,
it may be gone away and today not here.
For are

Midas Touch
In all that which could have been wearisome
Ended up an experience quite awesome
A process we all believed rigorous
He handled to show himself The Vigorous;
A task we all took for The Onerous,
He easily made us want numerous;
A journey we all judged as The Perilous,
He proved one that would us make sedulous;
Conditions we felt were not innocuous

Societal Issues & Perilous Times

Today, we are living in a world of chaos,
where many are engrossed in driving wedges.
Anyone who is different is fair game and racist.
Social justice, woke, and Cancel Culture is the narrative.
It’s like living in an old class B western movie.
Gun sales are skyrocketing, and many conceal carry.

Written: by Miracle Man
November 5, 2020
America is now reaping from the seed we’ve sown,
we’ve become self centered and can’t get along.
We sought out pleasure and now we bemoan,
because we followed the self destructive throng.
What our country needs is a heart transplant,
I believe that America has seen it’s best days.
God can change things that

Perilous Times

Lord, Hear our prayers as we intercede,
on behalf of our troubled world today.
Disobedient people good thoughts impede,
and each day brings some new affray.
Today we are living in those perilous times,*
that you said the last days would bring.
The media reports daily on riots and crimes,
change our hearts before death bell’s

Peace In Perilous Days
We yearn for peace in perilous days
We lift our heads and look in the sky
It will not be found in violent ways
It will not rise from smoke passing by
Screaming drowns the wise words to be heard
We lift our heads and look in the sky
Looking for truth, no time for absurd
Lift us, cradle us, with simple
