The deeper you look the more you see,
in the space between entities.
If I take a stronger scope, what will I see?
More stars, with less space between.
Stronger again, yields more and more smaller stars
hidden between the lines in the void,
avoiding detection by being
beyond the limits of perceptions scope.
I must try harder to fill the gaps by expanding the scope.
by filling-in the potholes of space between the stars
with starlets, twinkles and sparkles,
hidden away and awaiting discovery,
in the emptiness I feel,
when the stars fail to deliver for me.

I want you to come to me
With all the reasons good.
With nothing much to worry about,
Less to be misunderstood.
I want you to look at me
With love and care and hope.
I want you to read my eyes,
Where words find little scope.
I want you to be heard 'midst all
And spread the dew of love.
I want you to be happy with me,
Though much is thrust from 'bove.
I guess am not wrong after all,
In chasing my dreams long born.
I want you to be a part of this,
My heart's no room for scorn.
Give me a break for a while,
I want to be alive with you.
In laughter, party, participate,
At times am a lot bit screwed.
I love to see you tenderly work,
With passion etched on your frown.
I want to hear your breath release,
Satisfaction and music around.
I give no word of mine I know,
You held a better score.
I want you to touch my life--
Leaving me to wait for more.

Beneath the shades
of velvet shadows
swarms of amber
luminance of daylight
and elusive flits
of faerie embers.
Veiled in jeweled which
rhymed with
Calyx elixir tints
of moonlit hues,
wings of light fractals
of burnished baubles.
Serendipitous breeze
scribbling rimes
of a runic serenade
in glints of jades
and emeralds.
wisps of wood smoke
soft mists of
Myrrh and Frankincense
fragrance of
Amyris and Bergamot.
Life has been beckoned.
by the sun messenger.
In that aurifying light,
crisscrossing balmily
and all at once.
With your shifting cloak,
snail
silver tree,
life is futile
& vain as smoke.
with your beshrews roads
case of curiosity
devoted to
the art of taxidermy,
decorative, restorative
and anthropomorphic.
A canorous dream,
capacious
mellifluous
Hurry past me!

They try to move on those they believe reside
alone
All the while never knowing they've been surrounded
all along
Behind the scenes games are played to cause confusion
by deflecting things
All they've done is confuse themselves while getting
wrapped in karmic rings
The circle builds with every act until they're lost within
the scene
As the movie wraps, they lose production for crossing
lines they hadn't seen
They were seen and knew it not for on the surface
all was clear
Behind the veil many watched in wait, so now they're
trapped by solid fears
The end of the race is closer than it appears for the
illusions run really deep
It's like they raced to a hidden cliff & couldn't stop, so
they didn't think before they leaped

"African child"
African child, so young and bold,
On June 16, your story was told.
You took to the streets with pride and might,
To fight for freedom, for what is right.
You faced fear and danger, yet you stood tall, Demanding a future, fair and for all.
Your voice rang out, clear and strong,
As you marched bravely, all day long.
But the world saw your pain and plight,
Your struggle to learn, to read and write.
And they refused to let you fall,
For they knew, you deserved it all.
Today, young child, you have a hope,
A future bright, with endless scope.
No more to be silenced, no more to be still,
But to rise up, and learn, and be fulfilled.

have heard latest scoop
do join poetry group
then should have some soup
(take ride on a sloop)
(stand under a stoop)
(around start to troop)
(be thrown for a loop)
(clean poop from a coop)
(clean up all the goop)
(then jump through a hoop)
(then eat cantaloupe)

Eternal God loves each and every one of us
Life is a gift from Eternal God
There are estimated 50 million Abortion Liberty worldwide annually
It is done to free the unborn from problems, misfortunes, dilemmas, adversities
*
Of all unplanned pregnancies, more abort than give birth (47% abort vs. 40% give birth).
Everybody make mistakes
We are just humans
We are not perfect
*
A child passed every second
That’s okay
That’s life
Why don’t we just help rather than talking
*
Abortion Liberty women are at risk
It is okay with Eternal God
He told the baby angel
The babies are safe in heaven
*
Assist Women in Abortion Liberty
To have a wonderful outcome
Being at peace with everyone
Tomorrow we will see the beautiful sunrise
*
Let all of us get along
Think what Eternal God wants
Development of human being
About Abortion Liberty came to end

I feel you there,
Your gaze sends heat through my skin
Do you know what I've done?
My hairs stand on end,
Slowly, I watch you
Packing your bag in the night
Slowly you leave
Spreading this terrible blight
I feel like I'm burning
An ant beneath your scope
Do you know what I've done?
Your eyes meet mine,
Raging blue fire,
Your bag on your shoulder,
So, you know now
What it is I've done.

Cessation by free will
Free will of a doer
Thus not cessation
Unless responses slow
By simple recognition
The recognition renewed
As emptiness meditation
Whereupon the veil falls
Bubble of ignorance bursts
Noiselessly into the void
Bliss luminous self-existent
Alone remains in stillness

scope
gulls along shoreline
cast progression and motion –
shadow horizon
worship
rain ribbons the sun
rays’ drizzle evaporates
nudist takes shelter
illusion
sea mew crests surface
rides surf sways in tide’s push –
pulls up red herring

Astrologists look at the stars
Whilst Gypsies read palms in the bars
But Fortune lies
With alibis
So mind the lights, but watch the cars!

The Gypsy looked in her crystal ball
And told me that she could see it all
My wife was quite nude
With some gorgeous dude
The Gypsy hoped would give her a call

Earth Scope
As verdant mountains overlook the sea
And sunrise plays with shadows in the morn,
Joy fills my spirit with tranquility
Though clouds begin to threaten with a storm.
When sunlight filters through the pewter mist
And rain freshens flora from up above,
Raindrops cleanse and nurture plants they have kissed
In nature's Divine order graced with love.
We, as caretakers of our blessed earth
Must strive to keep our blue green planet clean,
Must realize the bounty of her worth.
Divine eyes keep observing us unseen.
Let each feel this responsibility
As verdant mountains overlook the sea.
