CONFESSION FROM A POET TO A BELOVED POETESS ROMANTIC WORDS

      beloved poetess at your feet,
      being a simple poet
       a major shoe shiner
        certainly the best, I am !

Ode to Polaris

Polaris, Star of Ursa Minor
among her suns, you are chief shiner.
Commonly known as Pole or North Star
you guide navigators from afar.

Can you also lead and guide me
as She who led the Magi Three
to the Desire of all Ages
prophesied of by many sages.

Polaris, famous as the North Star
what a fit metaphor you are
of Jesus, the “Bright and Morning Star”
who leads and guides men from afar.

Fellow travelers, life’s wayfarers
Don’t be detoured by naysayers.
Jesus is the true Polaris,
He is the guide to get to know.

Resplendence

"Everywhere I look I find natures resplendence, 
sunsets bless, suitors and suitresses take a chance"
                                                      ~quote by poet

Radiant sunrise by days background essence
Exalting sunset blessing us with its presence
Splendor all around, the skyline through the trees
Precious exhaling breath of the zephyr breeze                                 
Luminescent wings of dragonflies gather at night
Elevating puffs of smoke for an out of body flight
Noctilucal moonglow, night-shiner, names beguiled
Dazzling are the smiles after lovers' kiss in the wild                         
Extravaganzas we share with our friends and family
Noble are the free-spirited spinning ‘round gracefully                                                                                                               
Coruscating suitors and suitresses out for a dance                                    
Everywhere I look I find natures resplendence

Butterfly

What is a butterfly?
A tiny creature with pretty wings
Colorful and filled with joy
A symbol of freedom and liberation
Beauty, grace and rebirth
But there should be something more
There should be much more
All I see is a tiny spark
When it should be much shiner
No, she is not only that

Finer Flower Designer

when a flower designer
nothing ever is finer
eye has a shiner

Regina Fears Angina

I have a Christian Friend, Regina
She had never uttered  '':
Not for all the tea in Big China,
As though it could give her Angina;
For life ban her from Holy Sinai...

Fears picked from Born - Again Wood Shiner
And Bible Student Friend Georgina,
Both of them passionate Catholics,
To alter their minds lots of New Tricks:
Among them planting cunning Martin,
His fine point fluent Catholic Latin:
At the last moment to Regina:
Mary won't kill for voiced .

A Tough Guy Tale

I remember as a kid this one little guy
tough as nails and quick with a lie
he showed up with a shiner
but he wasn't a whiner
said he, I hit his fist with my eye

Just Like Old Times

Bumped into a friend
just yesterday
I was driving my car
and she got in the way

She said nothing was broken
the impact was minor
Mostly bruises and cuts
and a pretty good shiner

I took her to breakfast
and told her a joke
She was laughing so hard
she started to choke

I gave her the Heimlich
and then she was fine
While everyone cheered
we continued to dine

I finished my eggs
plus her corned beef hash
She picked up the check
since I don't carry cash

Then we took a ride
when I got a flat
She changed the tire
while watching, I sat

We went to the park
to her favorite thing
where she asked me to push
while she rode on the swing

But careless was she
as she went too high
and flew off the seat
up into the sky

And then she came down
right onto a bush
full of prickly thorns
straight into her tush

To the hospital entrance
I gave her a lift
and away from my car
she limped fairly swift

But before that she said
(if you'll pardon these rhymes)
"Whenever we meet
it's just like old times"

Conquering Pain

Conquering Pain
(Through Mental Toughness)
Written: by Miracle Man
10-9-2019
I try not acknowledging that nemesis pain,
I view pain as a temporary irritation.
I won’t surrender, letting it become my bane,
Unless brought on by some ablation.

Any lacerations, I’ve always viewed as minor,
Whether stapled, sutured, glued or such.
Though some have produced a dandy shiner,
I’m not accident prone nor am I a soft touch.

From a seven hour stay in the ER I Just came, 
For my eleventh sew, staple job on my head alone.
Each scar tells a story that’s never the same,
My twenty six scars began long before grown.

If hospital administered on an irregular basis,
Pills become my crutch for temporary relief.
I find pain a frame of mind in most cases,
And I avoid the road that might lead to grief.

I’ve seen a lot of days and some have been rough,
And a few of them has brought some scorch. 
But if your like a Pit Bull who thinks he’s tough,
You won’t let fear keep you tied to the porch.

An Ocean Liner

Sure annoying while reclining in my recliner
Bell rings, someone wants to sell me a trip on an ocean liner
Had just fallen asleep
Dreamt of sailing the ocean deep
When he refused to leave I gave him a big shiner

Whisperings of the Soul

NO GREATER PLACE TO BE THEN INSIDE THE SOUL LISTENING FOR SIGNS THAT ALL IS WELL WITHIN OURSELVES AND NEXT OF KIN. A LITTLE 
 PLACE INSIDE OUR HEART WHERE SOUL REPOSES LIKE THE TENDER PETAL OF A BLOOMING ROSE. IT IS A SANCTUARY BUILT BY GODS OWN HAND. A NESTING PLACE WHERE WE CAN HEAL. (B)
 RELEASE THE VOICES OF THE EARTH AND SOAK IN THE SILENCE OF A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT, QUIET * SERENITY. CLOSE THE LASHES OF 
 YOUR EYES, BEGIN TO SEE THE BEAUTY OF GODS FRAMEWORK. THE STARS, THE MOON, THE SUN , SHAPED BY TWO LOVING HANDS. THE CLOUD FORMATIONS HUNG FOR YOU ALONE. 
 WHAT DO YOU SEE WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE SKY?(B)

THERE IS A LADDER BUILT OF STRONG CHORD AND VINES . USE YOUR HANDS AND FEET TO CLIMB UP . WITH EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE THE AIR GETS FINER AND THE SCENARY GETS SHINER . PLACE 
 YOUR BLOOMING FLOWERS AT THE TOP OF HIS ALTER AND OFFER UP A PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING FOR YOUR SELF AND ALL THOSE YOU LOVE.
 SINCE WE ARE ALL FAMILY HERE, WE ARE ALL COVERED BY THE SAME 
 BLANKET OF WARMLY PEACE. (B)

Gordon Ramsay Visits Mel's Diner

Gordon Ramsay decided to pay a visit to Mel's Diner.
When he criticized Mel's food, Mel gave him a shiner.
Now Mel wears an eyepatch because Ramsay jabbed him in the eye with a fork.
He hated Mel's beef and had to have his stomach pumped when he ate Mel's pork.
Ramsay didn't like the waitresses so he told Mel that they had to go.
After years of faithful service, Mel fired Alice, Vera and Flo.
Flo was so angry that she was chomping at the bit.
She told Mel and Gordon Ramsay to kiss her grits.
Ramsay finally had to give up on Mel because his food is so terrible.
Ramsay's job is to help restaurants but he can't perform miracles.

(This poem was inspired by the 'Alice' TV show.)

Abuse

Momma went crazy again
drinking up a storm
She just wouldn't stop
through night til early morn

She punched her new boyfriend, Tyler
Gave him a shiner that closed his eye
Tyler called my dad, he came,
to take me away for the night

Tyler looked at my dad
asking how did he do it
Dad touched me on the head
Said I was worth all the ****

Momma broke everything
but worse she has broken me
Tyler is a nice stepdad
I like him and he likes me

Don't know where I'm going
tomorrow seems so bleak
but for now I'm with my dad
I won't worry and will not weep

So today I am with dad
While momma sobers up 
inside her broken mess
while her and Tyler broke up
