The rusty old gate,
knows your comings and goings-
Silent observer....

In this capricious 
age of comings and goings 
of the other side 

I am blessed 
for I can submerge into 
your aegis, your undermind....

O willow,
weeping so free-

whisper to me-
the comings and goings

Tick Tock
Like the ocean tide you are constant and unchanging
A secret observer as you look down on us with your face of two hands
Marking the comings and goings of all who enter this place
Sad times, happy times you have seen them all
Your presence always indifferent
Tick Tock...

Yesterday it was 
me in the dust-
while you in the 
peanacle
 How u loughed 
at me,
But today a 
different story
 I choose not to 
lough for i know 
tommorow the 
opposite might 
be truth for me
 So i will pray 
for your up-
comings-while i 
fight to keep my 
position...

Those of the broken heart
Sit alone and feel so far apart
From life and it’s comings and goings
Not caring and not knowing

Can they be made whole again
To be part of life and to blend
Leaving broken behind so courageously
To stand tall again gracefully.

There is a stark unfairness in the fabric of our comings and goings.
It stings us like an immortal hornet,
Buzzing about with its pain and anguish,
Convincing us that Jesus is dead and soon we will join him.
There is a stark unfairness in the fabric of our comings and goings.
Oh Lord, come get me soon....

Ripe strawberries are intensely red,
And blazing full-blown roses are too,
And pompadours in a leafy homestead,
Or the heart love has rendered blue.
So ruby the sun's comings and goings-
And beds of scarlet beauty unknowing.

for reawakening daze
for purpose and time
I lack what I cannot find
light gazers bottled my intent
waves blended in shrines
for jumping and screams
for rediscovery
He has yet to pin
short comings and long walks
combining my flowers
for another day
for another breath
each day is just another
all just like the rest...

Whither O willow weeping so free, do whisper to me
the comings and goings of this flowing river we see;
Hither O willow weeping so free,  do whisper to me
of hidden eddys and pools where freshwater life runs free,
speak of your memories ,o beautiful and bless-ed tree.

I am King of the north
and west I am near the 
tread of the holy tragic
sea I sea a nation of Blood
a nation whom makes war a grand war a war 
to command all wars
I see it Clearly
This Grand nation shall come forth from a passive 
comings and will still fully challenge every nation of power and shall bring them 
to their knees

Busy shopping mall parking lots
Car doors opening and closing
Words flashing on digital billboards
A screech, a honk, some belligerent
Cursing bastard, a car alarm blaring
The noisy comings and goings
Of folks numb to the chaos
Rows upon rows of pollutants
Oil-stained pavement
Loose change on the dashboard
Keys left in the ignition
The engine still idling
Me, in the driver’s seat pondering it all...

Snow has spread a canvas
over the forest floor,
and I see how alive
the woods are:
tracks tell the comings and goings
of furry and feathered things.

The foxes have walked on the ridge,
their trail straight with purpose –
unlike the squirrels’ Brownian motion.

The pheasants have printed arrows;
perhaps
I shall follow
their directions -
who knows to what treasure
they may lead?

Inner Wisdom

We need not attend outward images only;
a recessed feeling of joy may do,
viewing subtler yellows of sunflower petals.

We need not shackle ourselves to metals.
Cold hard steel, rusty cobalt blue,
chain outward senses from inner glory.

We are made to live more than the physical story.
We need to address inner feelings askew.
Their comings and goings fulfill some of us too....

I woke up a morning
I have seen miseries burning
I have seen good booming
I neither lose hope of becoming
nor depressed by stress in doings

life has good meanings
I got myself believing
To God, my Lord am turning
my faith to He, Ya Rabal Alamin..

I revived my life by surviving
yesterday had gone and I pray our rest to rest...
bless unto mums and dads am seek for
solemnly I; pray for peace in our forth comings...

Decades wearing at his trunk
His branches sorrowfully drooping
Standing by and watching
As society is stooping

An overlooked eyewitness
To all that comes to pass
Every kind remark
And every ridiculing sass

Bearing the comings and goings
Adapting to each new scene
Minding his own business
Trying not to intervene

Sitting in tranquility
Counting the hours till his end
An onlooker of destruction
A bystander without a friend...

There is a chill in the air as the erie fog moves swiftly...
intertwining through the branches and leaves. 
Twigs and debris are swiftly uprooted from there place of rest...

Many different shapes and sizes swirl around in a rainbow of red and yellow..
Fall has come. 

The comings and going's are ever present but there is a delight of color. 
The warmth is gone...but just for a time, to be replaced with the cold that is...
yet come....

Fear is an appealing danger 
With all logic to withhold your full capability 
It lives in heart's manger 
The heart attached itself to duality

Where one see its own detriment
And his grace cum chances 
But live in fun-filled trances 
Than going for a hard moment

Moments define our shortcomings 
Responsibility is key to get stronger 
Fear derails our bearings comings 
Yet everyone isn't getting younger 

#Itsfearfulsometimes
But be ye bold!...

Listen to poem:

The Looney Toon August Moon
David J Walker

Blame it on the moon 

The monthly insanities 
The nightly vanities 

The comings
The going 

the longings 
In lonely mornings 

The Moon is to blame 
For all of the insane 

Things I can name and
It is as plain as day that

The night might 
Or might not sway things

Another way
In the light 

	Of a harvest moon
Setting south of August 

The sweet scent of 
Cooler air 

Is on its way...

This is the place where dreams are spoken,
Where hopes are written,
And where maturity and self acceptance grow,
It is a map of my life on paper,
My accomplishments and my short comings,
My loves and losses,
My innocence lost and my coming of age found,
The person that I truly am inside,
And though the ink may fade,
And the paper may yellow,
The memories never will fade,
The experiences never tarnish,
And the lessons learned will never be forgotten,...

A person you can run to when in need
that forgives your short comings when you plead.

Grievances and hatred she does not harbor,
which makes many to speak in her favor.

She's much caring,gracious and full of passion
making her traits to be the normal fashion,,.

Gossiping and back stabbing are not in her books
Snow white teeth and bright eyes are in her looks,

She's frank,and ready to speak the truth always,
"We must strive hard to build a vibrant city",she says....

Many people don't know
The pain i live each day,
I keep it all locked up inside
Always thought its best this way.

Friends eagerly invite you
Saying your busy its no,
Knowing the truth your broke
Otherwise you would love to go.

Weighing things completely
Listening to what others say,
Nothing ever really changes
For its the same each day.

Despite all life's short comings
After you sit and think awhile,
You still have your loved one
For this you'll forever smile....
