An ache overflows his soul
cries that bore deep holes
Time skirts the crowd’s edges
not the time, the Master alleges
To sympathize
when paralyzed
Let it go for now
vengeance not his to avow

I am not married now,
and nevermore intend to wear a golden ring,
nor avow
eternal bliss.
My friend, it's not an easy thing
to kiss
again,
for it may sting
then.
I am not married now,
My friend, it's not an easy thing
then.

Instead of the phrase, “brain freeze” at times we avow
Blurted out, “freezer burn” pointing between my brows
Wife Cathie took a fit
Convulsed quite a bit
Finally got control before the neighbours she aroused

I made a vow,
To live this year,
'Just for the hell of it'
As last year my best friend died.
Let him not in constancy,
Renege on his vow,
'He must stop now'
His death is a certainty,
He talks to the stars,
They weep for him,
Follow the master,
At the turn of the year,
He will be no more.

I do not know?
Happy describes how
All strive to feel each new day;
Patience must avow-
Picking times for work and play
Yet, to balance them somehow.

Wailing thunder
Growling sound
Clutch the earth
As you rumble aloud
ROAR!
Upon the earth
Beyond its clouds
Your frigid hands
Raucously plow
ROAR!
Striking seas
You rampantly avow
Assailing its waves
You beset, you plough
ROAR!
Dreadful thunder
We berate to you now
With more potency
Our voices shalt make you pow
ROAR!

Although
it’s a hard row to hoe
a rough furrow to harrow
and a tough trench to plough
there’s many a meadow to mow
I hereby avow
and tho' it may be news to you
farmers have the need
to sow their seeds
where milkmaids milk the cows
swineherds feed their sows
and shepherds have their pie
and eat it too
in Slough now

It’s Valentine’s Day and I wanted to say
from my heart with a love that’s so true.
I’m missin’ you now and to this I avow
that I’m savin’ my lovin’ for you.
And while we’re apart, I know in my heart
that you’re missin’ togetherness too.
But never forget, as this simple vignette,
that I’m savin’ my lovin’ for you.

I don't endorse 'going with flow'
for of course you never know
if the current will funnel
you down the drain
the tubes or flume
through the tunnel
toward the spume
to where you end up
in the sewer below
so as I'm in no rush to gush
or feel completely flushed
here and now I do avow
for me the bowl on the whole
is a non-starter a definite no-go

He wanted to drive a racecar-
a deed that would make him a star.
His friends would say wow-
and Mom, praise avow
for scoring top level- bizarre!
Now flashing on his radar view
a race with a Kayak would too-
Mam Hannah runs them-
each noon plans a gem!
So great if he did place in two!

Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
Written: by Miracle Man
10-17-2019
Many people will avow,
to being risk adverse.
In discussing this point,
they often become terse.
if we can’t stick our neck out,
without undue fear.
We’ll be like the tortoise,
and not get anywhere.
Sometimes a decision,
causes life to seem bleak.
But risk is always commensurate,
with the reward we seek.

Lyric
the sentence,perdition
no move to acquit
on trial for offenses
hand tailored to fit
no pardon forthcoming
a curse she proclaims
then yields up her life
to the withering flames
and yet time never ending
as crime will avow
forever impending
from then to the now
where in uterine slumber
a shadow appears
of a spirit encumbered
with malice and fear
and it's memory burns
like the devils own den=
God no!......NOT AGAIN!!!!!

Dramatic Monologue
Jesus Knows Who I Am?
Written: by Tom Wright
4/9/2018
He knows me intimately as a hard line guy,
To declare otherwise, truthfulness, I’d betray.
It’s just who I am, and past history don’t lie,
I see things in true colors, not shades of grey.
I’m always candid, calling a spade a spade,
No thoughts of procrastination do I allow.
When I try this, God must feel being played,
I must always do for Jesus what I will avow.

Lyric
Your demure smile made an austere gist on my Mind…
Every time I see you, it feels you to be of my kind….
I don’t know, if it makes a contrast in your Day…
Even if I must, it’s utterly heavy to say…
I sense ardent, when find you adjacent to my bone…
Yet it’s beyond the boundaries to reach that throne…
I could just crave for you to be a chapter in my fate…
I’m waiting for the day to avow post it’s too late…

Ashamed to avow my sins,
A burden mine alone to bear,
Broken beyond repair,
Baptized in gold to fill the cracks,
Restless nights, Velour gowns turning to sacks
No amount of gold brings relief,
Debased by lies and deceit,
Beg for forgiveness,
And you shall be forgiven,
He, who knows all, saw underneath my veneer,
A pain, a woe played for deaf ears,
I beseech my lord to forgive my misdeeds abhorred,
Let my midnight scribble turn into beautiful word.

Free verse
At his special place on God’s earth
He’d recapture his sense of worth
He sent a prayer to God above
Professing honest undying love
For the beauty around him now
His gratitude he did avow
The feverish sun warmed his skin
He could unwind and look within
Search deep into his soul and heart
And mend what seemed broken apart
No matter how hard life could be
His love for God would keep him free
For He had given him this life
Resplendent with both joy and strife
