When wrinkles start appearing
Getting deeper by the day
With liver spots accruing
And the hair is going grey
The early morning aches and pains
A stomach growing flabby
The crows feet and the flatulence
No wonder you feel crabby

I seized the moment,
sure I’d repay it in kind.
What’s a hint of regret
for what I thought I needed to burn?
Now the burden grows,
sleepless nights interest is accruing.
The cost never diminishes,
but the memory of the flame is a vapor,
and yet, I still pay.

here they come
visionaries of our time
friends from the old
yet feeding on our ignorance
subtle as they are
they lurk privily for their own lives
their net spread in the sight of any bird
taking away life of owners thereof
for the haste to shed blood
their destruction like a whirlwind
deceitfully accruing to themselves

I can’t believe what Mom and Santa were doing
They thought I was in bed, my presents accruing
It was late on Christmas Eve,
In Santa I still believe,
But I would swear I saw Mom and Santa Claus scr*wing!

Limerick
The sun came up today,
as usual,
but with a difference.
While we slept,
rain changed to snow,
quarter-size flakes
accruing on the wet earth.
Temperature dropped
faster than snowflakes,
freezing the garage door shut.
Morning brought a crystal cloak,
to cover winter's drab face;
a blanket of jewels,
winking in the sun.
A priceless gift,
from the Diamond Maker.

I’ll stay in the shadows
accruing interest on accolades due
for quietly providing remedies
which combat worldly ails.
Those who seek praise may stumble upon
beneficial consequences of their actions,
but more often they aggravate sores,
hidden by their alacrity.
So it will continue into eternity;
my admonitory words will be forgotten
until the ages of dust which adorn them
solidify; proving my words adamant.

Oh! Canada, you have traversed,
A hundred and fifty years!!,
Giving life and hope,
To a land that was once,
Left out as an ice desert,
You brought the whole world together,
To enjoy the benefits of democratic living,
Away from cultural conflicts,
And political turmoils,
Accruing the skills of,
All lands and people,
With mutual love and understanding,
Finding the joy of peaceful co-existence,
A veritable heaven on earth!!!.

Dramatic Verse
Nature was selfishly deficient
in denying beauty to Millicent.
Men rarely offered her a glance,
unless by accident or chance.
And though she lost out as a wife
she made up for it with a lavish life,
accruing things she loved and more,
things women beg their husbands for,
and lived with an untroubled mind
(unlike other women of her kind).
And when they lowered her in the grave
rich old men wept for the pleasures Millie gave.

Ability And Desire
Miracle Man
3/15/2024
When in his youth he was filled with desires,
now sometimes his age causes him to digress.
To do youthful things he no longer aspires,
but today his thoughts are difficult to express.
He was big in sports, and liked to hunt and fish,
a military career he should have been eschewing.
Now he visits his past able only to wish,
while he was away missing years were accruing.
For a friend

Forgiven Sin’s
Written: by Miracle Man
7/27/2024
God’s justice required a payment,
for all of my wrong doing.
I was unable to satisfy my debt,
for the sin that I was accruing.
But my faith spanned the gap,
between Holy God and me.
He heard my sinners prayer,
and at that moment set me free.
For my sin debt was prepaid,
through Jesus at the cross.
He paid the ultimate price,
taking upon Himself, my dross.
Thank You Jesus!
