The" Football" -is kicking a ball by a foot apace,
The "Facebook"- is hitting by a book to a face!...

lightness
     all around
contentment
    grows
      apace:
I 
stay
quiet
   with my
    thoughts,
ideas
float
across my mind
..float..
..then
   settle

inspired byclip of Allegri's misere...

The garden came alive today
leaves are bursting forth,apace

The sun greeted me today
a smile upon its face

Love gave me a kiss today
in my daughter's embrace

Life is so much better today
living within God's grace...

He won gold,sprinting apace
Yet on a Sunday would not race;
Later,upon a mission field
His freedom lost,was made to yield-
Then met his master,face to face.

Tribute to Eric Liddell(1902-1945) of 'Chariots of Fire' fame,died in a Japanese internment camp....

With patience, in a concealed place,
in long grass, or a packing case
as unwary prey comes apace
never his footsteps to retrace

With cold eye, beady, dead in space,
Uncoiling with hypnotic grace,
Slow motion skin - an awful lace,
 To silent earth, no sudden trace....

consigning all to oblivion,
& with time's flame lit apace,
I should have scorched all pride
to stand helpless
at the gates of your beauty, 
at the gates of that impossible love 
that I can only now confound 
(as mourners do),
wherein every joyous thing
is a memory, 
of the beauty I saw in you...

a fawn frolics free 'cross the meadow
    coat aglow, bathed in sunshine
  her young buck sleeps apace, never stirring
    wrapped in arms of conifers, tall pines
 
  the fawn pauses to sniff the chill forest
    sorrow's torment streams toward her heart  
  shots ring out, dogs bay, crimson sky ~
    archers yawn, another fawn's cry...

|    From lack of reason, to quotients of densest space  
|    Through the iris of an eye, voids are commonplace  
|    Stubborn pervasive doubt, projects across the face  
|    Reassured again when mindsets find a bright place  
|    Still if one can’t see god, photons will bring a trace  
|    Filtered through life’s prism, heaven refracts apace

Alliteration,the starting place, alongside
cinquains,apace in time,crystalline
lanterne and rhyme.Inspiration drew forth
footle,broken monoku for a while short
imagist was my style.Sequenced longer
poems metamorphose within this crysallis
changing into ekphrasis.Open,and freed to be,
as you see,structured  poetry.With
cadence and pause,others hear my voice...

Life was running perfect on its rails,
Smooth and steady apace,
Till there was an unforeseen turn,
Every rose has its thorn.

The kindest person I ever met,
Added fragrance to my life,
His absence pricks so sharp ,
But every Rose has its thorn .

Dreams so bright near fulfil,
Mesmerised my heart and soul,
Till some awakened me to reality,
Every Rose has its thorn !...

Love puts a smile on your face
The memories came apace
Waiting for another taste
There was no haste
When I was in chase
And when obtained
It should never be misplaced
Maybe just display it in a case Like a fancy vase
With opened arms it will always be embraced
Souls are forever interlaced
In Gods good grace
For love I will continue to reincarnate

When the humid breath of spring crowned this place
Two darlings buds blossomed in one.
Lines of years unrolled with eagle mighty wings apace
Through toothed seasons, many delightful adventures won.

Once his hands landed on heaped treasure
With king like mien, he dropped with empty care
Who flooded his bosom with amorous pleasure.
With king like rue he wails, "bulk treasure brims no heart anywhere."...

MAINTAIN YOUR FOCUS
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS







Don’t lower the bar, lose not sight of the goal
Avoid the distractions, that constantly unfold
Zero in on the prize with relentless pursuit
An untended tree will be barren of fruit
Fuel your quest with positive assertions
Mine your resources for creative infusions
Your goal emerges, in sight, continue apace
Successful missions lead to a higher chase...

Woman, so fancy fair of form
  You swivel sultry past me
O, how can I weather your storm

My temperature rises
  Heart pounding apace
I check my impulse au natural
  To take up the siren chase

Like a caged lion, my insides rage
  Belie the placid countenance
Of a man of advancing age...

Then with a moan of unbridled lust
  For your body I lunge
As you dissolve into nothingness
  ~ Off night's bed have I plunged...

This glass,this mirror flat
I see before me ,day by day.
The reflection of what others
see of me.I see ,this one
dimension can never 'live'
or be touched.
I reach out but  cannot feel.
My prints I leave,
yet I cannot breach this barrier
between me and me.
Un-tactile unsatisfactory,ephemeral 
it disappears as I move away,
I can no longer stay in this 
pose face to face,lacking grace...
lest this narcissus grows apace...

Bygone is past, memories echo,
No one can live in antiquity,
There's no time like the present,
Future comes apace, an opaque mirror,
Live a life of endeavor, live to your full,
Till the air is able to fill !!

Achievements , the jewels of past ,
Present is the very life of life,
Why ponder over future, unknown pal,
Also when it comes soon enough,
Live present moments in happiness,
A water that ought to flood !!
