Chastened by hope'
And,
Bound in the ways'
Of Salvation,
Let His judgment be
Swift,
And my redemption merciful
Because,
In the pruest of light,
May the Holy Lamb
Trident and then pass
Against me
For condemnation
GF
credit the stone
that shapes your name
When The Mountains Flee
stagger the gold
that drowns the sea
At Close
disembark as the dust
into dark
O' Chastened Earth
May Your Counterstrike Rage
Form:
Desperation to breed contempt
the moment shattered
time illy spent
Choices bartered and freedom gone
the reaper chanting
old righteous wrongs
Panic stricken the nights repeat
the days long orphaned
abandoned sheep
One promise lingers in chastened air
the font of Angels
— baptism’s prayer
(Dreamsleep: January, 2023)
Chastened
by expectations.
Seasoned
by trial.
All journeys
begin
the same.
Roads diverge,
yet all
end
at
the same
destination.
Experiences vary,
stories differ.
But
the results
the same.
Progress
occurs
by the nectar
left behind.
In this way,
the hive
is built.
Listen to poem:
The slow drip, drip
Of connection
Until we feel known
Intensive flavours
Splash and dance
Off the tongue
The heady rush
Of acceptance
Undiluted
The desire
For more
Conversation
No chaser
Just chastened
Breathless
When the kick
Hits
All the feels
I need
A moment
Re-center my senses
Delicious
Dangerous
Anonymity
Wandering through the plains
Lost in plain sight
Famed for loneness
Borne into misery
The abandoned zeta
Chastened by pain and sorrow.
The bane of the lonewolf ;his curse
Cursed to be alone
Wandering in his thoughts
Screaming out in his mind
Cursed to walk alone
All love lost.
Will the lonewolf escape his fate?
Will he bud and sprout?
A wandering waif walks seeking
God in the wind and tide
A wondering soul seeks waking
a love of God inside.
The wind that kisses chastened cheeks
an infant thought inside,
the sea that cleanses misery
the gifts that are outside.
Each kindness shows the God within
to whom we can confide
and universal starlight brings
dual values to collide.
Exploding now within the hide
in which we all abide.
I think old lovers wish
Einstein correct
and Time not a thief
called Time;
A jester perhaps
that toys with our hearts
leaves Spring not a leaf
all youthful players aged
parts...
But nearer the end
when time less a friend
when the hours grow ragged
when all seems sorely jagged
when the sun is too hot
and the winter cold twice
Time chastened by God
responds with a paradise

Notes:
When The River Fails
credit the stone
that shapes your name
When The Mountains Flee
stagger the gold
that drowns the sea
At Close
disembark as the dust
into dark
O' Chastened Earth
MAY YOUR COUNTER-STRIKE RAGE
Giving each situation due consideration
those who are gracious comply to best timing
Family and friends retain highest dedication
Giving each situation due consideration
Offering helpful service, selfishness chastened
peaceful demeanour with intentions aligning
Giving each situation due consideration
those who are gracious comply to best timing

SUMMER FALLS
April heralds Summers March
as she leaves behind her warm glow
in blazing trail of red and orange hues
pursued by winds she trips and Falls
chastened to submit to colder paths
stormy clouds-- thunderous showers
shedding garments of leaves and color
exposes herself baring dark squall bruises
behind fragmented damp misty wisp
SUMMER FALLS AS WINTER CALLS
© Kim van Breda—April 2014
(The start of another winter here in Cape Town)
Perhaps love is a crimson fire
And burns the soul ever deep
In glorious waves of its desire
Never chastened by its sleep
To be in love and brave the flame
With earthly want and quiet need
In softer sighs the hearts proclaim
The gentle hands when love is freed
How long the pause as time conveys
Forever caught by waves that last
In memories flame, a kiss replays
Remains a picture in the past
Ever fading from flames that stay

She hated herself there’s no denying that
As God’s favourite chastened child
Bearing the burden of betrayal
And a heavy heart filled with sorrow
In her sombre world
Where light doesn’t penetrate the walls
Penalized for her sins
Waiting for the gallows to pull in
And bring her dim life story to the end
A tortured soul never touched with genuine love
Appreciated or treasured
The curtains will fall
On the lie, she has been living for so long
Then may her soul rest in peace.
