Love
born in the fire of youth
foster to preserve
lost to betrayal
regained in trust
through decades of growth
capitulate all 
nevermore lose

REIGN OF PEACE 


Oceans filled with tears
Shed by the angels weeping 
For souls fell in war 

Fill our hearts with love  
Making war capitulate
Peace forever reigns

A black van moves slowly down the drive
While her sisters, sons and daughters cry
Here in my heart she will always lie
The moon will still shine and the sun rise
And the world will move on without her

PEACE II


Oceans filled with tears
Shed by the angels weeping  
For souls fell in war  

Open hearts to love 
Making hate capitulate 
Let's give peace a chance

Seas are filled with tears

Shed by the weeping angels
 
For men lost in war,

Let us fill our hearts with love
 
And make war capitulate!

How many years alot themselves
To fairies, sprites and elves?
The fewest number, flying fast—
For childhood flutters past.

Enchanted realms when you were small
Capitulate and fall;
Their palace guards of inch-high men
Seek graves in days of Then....

Such a great feeling
has taken over me whole
I must surrender

I capitulate
to these amorous wonders
I’m held imprisoned

Surrender is sweet
I have gained and nothing’s lost
Call me a winner

like a ruderal flower  
thoughts persist 
resilient 
the ultimate foil 
for single marcescent leaf 
that's induvial
as ingrained habits 
distilled 
as a smur alights  
on the minds 
convolute 
like the leaf 
my thoughts furled
I bask in apricity
never to capitulate

In a galaxy of a million star's 
The residual heat
That forged Gold
And coal into diamonds
The parameters of jewelry 
On wedding rings
Dig hole's on earth
Orion's Belt 
3 Sister's 
Bridesmaids
Adorned in Satin
Capitulate on celestial horizon 
Both Black and Light
Surfing on the dust of night
Like meteorites...

Endulge in peace and rebuff war
Embrace faith and to your heart accord franchise
Step where you could trigger a grin
Endulge in peace and rebuff war
Advocate fortitude and malevolence entomb
Capitulate to love and to rectitude succumb
Endulge in peace and rebuff war
Embrace faith and to your heart accord franchise....

The thunderous skies now capitulate to man, witnessing their tirade of wrath
Who would have thought nature now bowed, whilst viewing man's path 
What man could imagine, beating a power like she
When I look back at the template I wrote
This wasn't meant to be



Inspired by reading a posting on Facebook by 'Janette Fisher'

Yield to the superior force of that warm, friendly welcome. 
Surrender to that well-being of consolatory, feel-good territory. 
Submit to a complimented treatment of mental repose for the wayworn; 
Capitulate to a gentle and melodious retreat secluded in a shiny enchantment 
Of porcelain and metal that will infiltrate your innermost courtyard....

What

What do I do with that love that filled the void
Do I fill it in with a choice that is inevitably yours
To do with it what meanderings in the mind one might contrive 
Which presents definable conditions
That define us inevitably 
What if the world really did revolve around you
Should I simply capitulate and resign
Or is there more to this than what I perceive
And simply leave it as it is
As what was originally conceived 
And leave...

The day’s a little chilly
(This touch of autumn rocks!)
Yet I will not capitulate
By putting on some socks.

The sun is brightly shining,
But on my bedroom floor
My sandals wonder why they haven’t
Made it out the door.

Though technically, it’s summer,
The temps did make me choose
A pair of canvas loafers
As today’s best pair of shoes.

Yet still, I’m just not ready
For my ankles to retreat.
They’ll enjoy some last hurrahs,
A celebration of de-feet!...

Adroit in this quagmire so meticulously infused
I yield yet the ground beneath me moves
Alone in a room of people I stand confused
Attune in this menagerie so materially abused
Seclusion notwithstanding I relinquish, capitulate, cede
Devoid of qualm I succumb daftly to the lure revealed
Subdued by my rivalry I prevail, endure, exist
Simply a nuance of distinction I concede permit
Infantile I accede yet somehow circumspectly survey
Surreptitiously I allocate the acquisition of the day...
