Cloaked Heart Saga

Season-1: Graving Ourselves

We are graving ourselves in the middle of the trail, 
Breathing smoke as air, skeletons block our way.
 this path is ours, ash as rose on the floor.
This moon is too close to us burning our own sights. 
These stars are blind in the middle of the night.
Our hearts are too wild to

Premium MemberVacuuming Saga


1 John 1:7 “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”


In the vacuuming, the roar of a voice – softly churning,
remembering my purpose… my soul is burning –
soundless stories, a still,

The Dragon Riders Saga V

The Dragon Riders Saga V

So many heroes had died that fated day, never again to fight
The only one to survive was standing over the Mage that night

Both had stood alone upon that once fabled battleground
The death screams of the dying Mage now the only sound

He let out one last deafening scream a crying evil lust
And

The Dragon Riders Saga IV

The Dragon Riders Saga IV
Suddenly the hot breath if death came searing upon his back
As he turned around the creature ever quickly did attack

Thrown from the cave he turned and arched hard into a dive
Speed he needed in the air to turn sharp enough to survive

His enemy was cold blooded, heartless, and expertly precise
What he

The Dragon Riders Saga III

The Dragon Riders Saga III


You nor he may yet know his birthright or even his name
Long have I watched you both and why to him it was now I came

You'll need the Armor, shield, sword, and talisman to win this war
You two are prophecies last hope and one this world cannot ignore

Born and trained for

The Dragon Riders Saga II

The Dragon Riders Saga II

The Dragon had returned to the clearing where he'd left his rider near neardeath
Hearing the strange tale brought mission purpose back and fire to his breath

A healer had found his friend somehow from the the universe of magic unknown
Now time was precious and running out their mission together again had grown

Just

The Dragon Riders Saga

The Dragon Riders Saga I

Dragon and rider were weary from the fight
They had watched so many of their kind die this night

The wounds of battle go deep as are their woes
Scars upon their bodies, their bleeding soul knows

So long had they trained to serve and to protect
They were more than friends having learned mutual respect

The

NINE MONTHS a life SAGA of THE Astronauts





They left  home nine months ago,
they didn't go to war... they went to outer space!

they kissed their loved ones, their family.
and went to the farthest reaches... in a special spaceship!

They promised to return, although they knew,
perhaps that wouldn't happen...!

When they left, they knew:
the world would continue in fire and tears,
madness and disenchantment...!

Their struggles were

NATURE’s SAGA

A filigree of veinlets, briefly jeweled with dew,
In mirrored pools, peeps saffron's rusty hue,
Maple’s serrated script, twirling in autumn's view,
Summer's green surrendered, in fall's golden cue,
Lifting spirits once gently, deeply subdued.

ANGER SAGA

I sold  a bunch of gold for a price of nothing 
Just because I am a human being 
Did not think anger was anything 
Till it took much of everything 
I now know the grass on the other side is not always green
Making you frown could be the worse I have seen 
Have no

The Relentless Saga Part 3: The Knife In The Dark

Betrayal cuts deepest when it wears a smile,
a friend turned foe, a shadow turned to blade.
You plotted with my enemies, unseen,
waiting for the moment to strike your blow,
believing trust once shattered could destroy.

But know that karma stands, a silent judge,
the friend who writes the ledger of our deeds.
Each wound you left became a spark in

The Relentless Saga Part 2: The Eternal Defiance

To my last breath, I will live and defy,
unyielding in resolve, my enemies,
know this: I will never, ever yield.
Each strike you planned has only sparked my blaze,
a light so fierce it sears the world itself.

I rise beyond defeat, unbroken, whole
my life not mine alone, but theirs I guard.
I breathe, I fight, I live, unyielding flame,
the

The Relentless Saga Part 1: The Relentless Flame

I am the flame that refuses to burn out,
a force unmatched, relentless in its rise.
I fight not just for me, but for my own
to be the father, man, and guide they need,
the unyielding pillar in storm and calm.

This battle is no marriage of convenience;
it is a contract written in sweat and blood,
a pact between duty

Premium MemberSince Seeing Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga

I saw a stupid movie just four years ago.
Will Ferrell starred in it, and he’s a funny guy..
The plot was so insipid I barely liked the show.
In Iceland it takes place, where Lars and Sigrit vie
with Eurovision singers in a contest with their song.
The movie played on Netflix during Covid times.
I listened and endured their
