Short Chiseling Poems

Lonely days with sprinkled words. 
Endless whispers barely heard.

A shadow of a poet in the rain. 
The pencil drips to keep him sane. 

Chiseling a rhyme on a drowning paper. 
And then brought to life for me to savor....

raindrops dotting lake
with circular rippling mist
shadowing mirror

sun rays chiseling
hieroglyphs reflections
on lake's ice blanket

geese flight departure
one staying with injured mate
God's love reflection...

Comedic contortionist claims clubfeet;
consider carefully, circus clowns cheat.
Chico chipped Carson City's carved concrete
clumsily chiseling cheap cardboard containers.
Charlatans can calm capitol complainers
confounding Congressional campaigners.

Heavenly attendants flash
The shades of dawn, thus 
Such a picture just
Made beyond human magnificence sense 
Divine hands compass 
While chiseling, blessed, messenger truss
Brilliant with ornateness 
Such articulation, such alikeness
Of rendered imaginativeness 
Such baby love·li·ness 
The Excellence of BabyAngel'ness...

A few seasons ago
My heart began to melt
Thawing from ages of isolation 
Allowing me to unearth how I felt 

Discovering depth
In the layers buried below
Emotions that were stored away
Now put on display to help me grow

Still chiseling away
As the journey will be long 
But boldly forging a new frontier 
With my heart unfrozen and strong...

a love supreme...
    
laboring through the trials
of day
and the weeping pains
of night—
from the quarry of life
we hewed out the stone
of romance
chiseling away
its superfluous edges
we sculpt a love supreme
accepting and respecting
differences
embracing 
our oneness
our togetherness—
ours is:
a love supreme...
a love supreme...
			a love supreme......

the tablets of earth
are carved in stone,
one tablet in Americas'
235 miles long
every carving, every word
every letter carved in a
language known only to God,
every word, every carving,
every letter as perfectly carved
as an amazing engraver
chiseling into steel,
Gods words, Gods tablets
of stone are as historic as us,
but as old as
the garden of eden itself.

If I am the judge of my art
            That I sculpted chiseling my soul
       I know my emotions profusely fall as verses upon pages
             I pick metaphors facing brain storm
      I look for muses groping through thick mist of autumn
          To get the final statuette of my poem
   So ,if I am honoured the judge's chair
      I would use fair judgement to give it a placement

My son pay ear to my warning
Cosigning makes you pay
You are working for family
You are not paying for man
Do not go signing papers
You are digging yourself a hole.

Creditors are scything plants
Chiseling money out of stones
Statues are swimming in oceans
Mars is waging war
The dogs are snarling 
Suckers are falling prey
Do not sign man's papers
You are selling children.

Through grains of sand tranquility flows
Random in order, angles repose
The mounds of time, etch the glass
So fine the stone, memories amassed


Chiseling and carving, concave to the bottom
The theory of physics, randomly quantum
Steadfastly pouring, ever so fast
Individual millions, to one they are cast

Inverse it to start over again
Each moment of life represented in sand
What once was last becomes the first
When hitting the bottom signifying rebirth...

On the fateful day before Halloween
Dressed as a vampire queen in green
I passed through the graveyard
With all my senses on guard
When I heard a rustling mean

In horror I turned around to see
Who had the audacity to scare me
Saw an old man bending low
Chiseling his name in a row
Looked to be a veteran escapee

I told him not to disturb the grave
When he started to turn and rave
His family didn’t spell him right
And he with his might
Had come out his name to engrave...
