Premium Member Zen Mode

we asked
and so received
then new desires arise
wishing to alter fate
we are deluded

recognition 
is not assimilation
we have a long way to go

Save aligning with throb of love,
each touch mindful, like a peace dove,

and have no agenda to state,
yet blessings pour in from above.

Whether for better or worse is factored in by choices we make

was formed

went from positive 
to negative in the blink

Inverted

The trembling thumb of threatening thunder
Strikes silvery shimmering of silken sludge
And adjoins an arch on alter of an afforest.
It inverts insipid immobility of irrationality.

Epithalamium # 2

As spring turned to summer
Nary a cloud marked the sky
As I looked at my maiden fair
I wiped a tear from my eye
As we stood before God at the alter
And made our vows, my love and I

Broken Wings

His beloved
Fates gift to him
Wrapped in beauty
Mended his broken wings
In the palm
Of her love
And placed him
On the alter
Of hope and victory
And her speaking
Was a healing.

Premium Member Sauntered Freely

around the mountain ridge.
On Falcon's wings I flew the mile
across the placid lake to wooden bridge,
where fir laden path skirted water;
and powdered snow the ground did alter.

Law

LAW
Is there anything to alter the standard of law
Are you still terrified of the Jaw
We are working hard to deter the flaw
Let's overcome all of the claw
