He Rendered Me a Gift
He offered me a painted flower
Its genus I did not know
But the token gift had the power
to melt my heart of snow
I really didn't give a fig
if it had been a bent twig
The gift he rendered on a whim
was the best part of him

Reproduction is oocyting.
With beingness what it is.
From eggs we all develop
as does everything that lives.
500 cardinal gambles tendered
for congress milt to meet, before
fecund moons by periods ended.
From family we are decended
but from eggs we all are rendered
(inspired by “We all are eggs” by poet BLT)
*** a woman is born with 500 eggs*

Render me in colours
Reflected by the moon,
Let the white of my smile shine
Against the brown of my frown,
Let the curve of my chin feel the touch of your hand,
While the feel of your breathe warms my soul.
See the dip in my collar bone,
Fill it with your need,
While the slow

Rendered Speechless-Literally
People often say I talk a lot, but I hardly think that is true,
Like the whispers about the bluebird, of which he never knew.
Talking helps a lot with my job, which is in public relations,
As modern artists' imaginations, help to create new sensations!
At last I was on vacation though, relishing in blooming pathways,
As I followed

Rendered Dark
A terrible tragedy occurs,
We do not move to handle it,
Yet we wallow in our own self pity,
And allow ourselves to enter the maze
The labyrinth has a centre that stuns and confuses
Why enter the furthest distance from the exit
Rejuvenated in Summer and cowering away in winter,
Yet it is summer elsewhere
We do not have mercy for ourselves,

Rendered Realms of Romance
to kiss your lips, to drift away
and feel the allure of palms burning
soft tremors from love's timeless enchantment
where time trembles, and grows still
to wait shimmering souls
lover's hearts meet in crescendo
to bathe in warm eternal bliss
hunger's fluid floating motion
fill wishful wishes from this kiss
warm nectared petals
where beauty's bare blossoms bloom
plucked from lover's lips
feel sensual sensations

Withered Rendered Helpless
When all is said and done
And the struggle is in vain,
Its time to lure the bad memories out
By lancing the boil and opening up
Withering to let the bad memories spew out
Rendering to helplessness,
Giving in, giving up, so renewal can begin.
Look deeper now, to clearly
Recall the ones you used to know.
Let the feeling flow
Before the barrenness

Words Heart Rendered
What is a poet's soul?
love and passion for a start
torment and misery from a deep dark abyss;
imagination stolen from the stars, inspiration's fine art
and true dedication high upon heaven's first list!
Or is it words heart rendered?
sweet beams of mornings light, cast forth without fight
bouncing against dark

I've found that
happiness
and despair
are close siblings
who tussle and feud
over playthings
like me
you
and that poor chap
who offed himself
down the hall.
I'm staring at
the same cracked
grout-grey drywall,
musing on his fate.
Maybe he's
enjoying the void.
Perhaps he's stretched
out on a

On the side street, where the poet
took his nightly walk, shots resonated,
yelling, and a car driving fast;
on the pavement a man´s blood
was running into the gutter.
The police asked what he had seen?
Nothing!
You must have seen something?
I saw a waterfall running down
a mountainside in spring and
the air was pure.

"rendered Beauty"
Agape the power thereof,
The blessed form of our faith love,
Forms below, of faith above,
The power of our faith is dove,
Our body form is our love’s glove,
Our precept brotherly love.
When agape's sloppy,
Gloves become poor copies!
Thank God, that nature’s form is love,
Nature’s beauty is from above,
Agape formed it’s own glove,
The form is faith and also love,

Rendered and Tendered
Take a sampling of interest
Dice slice spice and wrap it
Slow warm in an oven of love
Until firm with a bubbly crust
Set out to cool in evening ranges
Carefully balanced
Lest it deranges
Yearning and turning to lust
Flavor with arduous ferment and fear
Casting and sprinkling
All you hold dear
Then serve it forever
Bright clean and clear
On

The Heart Rendered Silent
The heart was rendered silent
Buried and freshly cut
By the nuance of the moment
I was destroyed as the space closed shut
The pain of disarray
As my emotions I did disobey
Buried in the silence of indifference to myself
The pain, the pain of this mental closure
Gates were closed as the “saviour of the world” I tried to shoulder
Every ache
