Slicing through every
Ounce of forest
What delicate
Hands of God
Light still
Pouring through
This bastion...

Bastion,
Hold onto me; 
Preferably closer,
The embrace feels so nice ~
O’ asylum, cover mine hearts
Stronghold...

1. with a fragment of devotion still lodged inside her heart, he lives on.
2. with his last bastion of hope, he called out her name and the stars fell down.
3. with their red ribboned love affair splitting and fraying words were no longer enough....

I am chasing a tight track
My bastion behind me
Being fired to the ground
Consecutively running
You can't see that
The way is getting dark
I'm too much tired
I have nowhere to break
Can you hear my breath?
I'm vanishing away,
Yelling in tacit
Can you save my way?...

You're an angel 
A heart of golden 
A moment with you, even still 
Is a kiss from heaven

Like the rapture of my soul
From eternal damnation 
Like the light of my goal 
My dream and my passion 

For in thee dwells mine sunrise 
Like my bastion on the rise 
Like a prestigious prize 
That equals no price...

Resonance pools plentiful
As birds and squirrels
Chirp beyond garden bastion

A man in his house
Hermit crab's through life events
A bigger driveway!
Spared no expense!

And gushing parenthood
To provide with cherished glee
Never forget
The illusion of drawing boundaries

So we instruments
Imagine our own song
Glueing to destiny...

Sentinel amid the dunes,
watching, 
waiting, 
thriving,
a bird tower standing tall
upon unending sands
that, roll out their
own roadways.

A green skyscraper
in the distance;
horizon dot,
between two realms.

Courageous bastion
of wisdom...
a tree, stands alone;
testament to Nature’s
fortitude.

S-afe from any harm, 
H-ouse of worship is a bastion; 
A-sk the Father for security, 
I-mplore Him to provide protection.

S-afe from any harm
O-n the fifth of December; 
M-ay you always have the love
O-f the arms of the Maker.
Z-one of risk is far away, chilling rain turns warm; 
A-lmighty God gives you shelter, safe from any harm....

you climbed the fortress
up trellises of vine
to capture her heart
to hold for all time

the tower a bastion
protected, secured
without hesitation
your vision unobscured

your mission was gallant
the plan was construed
knowing not resistance
from a love that was true

as you scale the tower
you know in your heart
a happy ending was coming
you knew from the start...

Smitten,bitten,forcefully written
visions of missons,from where i'm sittin
golden still holdin',is love unfoldin'
petals of Lotus slowly bloomin....

Forgettin',forgiven,the life we're livin'
outlast the past,path of peace we're given
fragrant vagrant,leavin' heartfelt gracious
personalized peace as jeweled precious.....

Compassion's bastion....spur of the moment.........

I gave my life
For a cause without concern
Like a flower
Digging through concrete

I filter the light
Through years of darkness
What is left
Is all that sustains me

I sought God
But found only demons
So my heart
Became a bastion of corruption

I imprisoned myself
But blamed others for years
Now alone
I wonder how I could ever be forgiven

I find your eyes a soft bastion
hold your hand with romance
consume my heart with your passion
I'll bow to you and dance

You're the beloved my heart has found
a heartbeat heard through time
we shall feel love's quivering sound
in lifting eyes sublime

We'll cherish when worlds disappear
lay in realms of desire
my love, I'll taste your lips so near
in flame's consuming fire

And in those day's
Let there be joy and happiness
In that time of judgment
Fore
I will not
Relinquish that bastion
Of humanity
Or
That link with God
For which ultimately
I have fallen short'
And
So be it that for the Glory
Of He, in that
We are intrinsically connected
To this,
This is His glory
And is bound
By testimony of faith
In the Lord, Our Savior
Jesus Christ

Life is a song, where lovers belong
and a kiss will invite love's passion
the days will unwind, dreams they will find
deep in the heart's warmest bastion
where each of its pleasures has its treasures
and every starry night is a dreamy rhapsody
where a fire is lit with flames of desire
and time is a subliminal serenity
where hearts intertwine in love so divine
and life is a song for eternity...

FEROCITY
bastion
slowly
 being opened
secret
for years
elegance
ushered in
towering
  over
a ferocious
scene
silencing
the
 excitable
 with
a watchful gaze
 beneath
 in front
&angular

so distinguished
 looking
faces
with
closed
ears
glimpsed
in aversion
 displayed
readily
 & not  accessible
 but
 completely
free
to
drawing
compelling
attention

The history of this moment
Parallel in all decision recharted
A final glance revealed
Chimerical, each flight through dazzling entry

Urgent not to be left alone
Buried, the skies peel from their gaze
Criminal to walk out each square and peg

Lost beyond inner butterfly of space
Leaping circus rings and beast wrangled
The last bastion of you to me

Free without a second
The birth or uncovering 
Falling deep between the years...

Facsimiles burst in the jungle
Gestures pulling paint off the wall
I've seen it all
Crouched, hideaway consumer companion choice
Urgency gather fervently
Upsetting the sewage balance

Garden shears hanging sturdy frames
Blue collar bastion glowing brain
A belt buckle preacher enlivened struggle
Suicide ransom beneath the huddle

I'm making waves
And riding them too
Street animal casting feather balloons
Whispering a marching tune...

A flick of light within my soul
becomes a beacon for my life
wherein I join with You in Christ
free from normal life of strife.

Today breaks boldly clear and bright
A bastion holds me safe from sin
and fills my heart with calming Voice
to sooth and hold me close within.

How grateful I become for You
who teaches that Your love may cope
with those who challenge You exist,
persuaded by Your voice of hope....

Your love, my Lord  
The bastion of my soul  
No enemy of your Word 
Ever, able would be,
Its walls of devotion to 
Ascend
For 
Hate, the kingdom of terror to
Establish!

*Boko Haram, Nigeria, just used a 10-year-old girl as 
  a bomb detonator, right after massacring up
  to 2,000 people. To these victims of terror, I dedicate 
  this little poem of mine! God bless their souls!...
