with a bust the smallest of deals.

and drank costly potions.

Premium Member A Costly Mistake
Single mistakes can be costly,
Surely a statement made falsely
Will get you time in the slammer
And create lots of loud clamor,
So never enter a false plea.

Red roses in the dead of winter. 
Hard to find, 
a costly extravagance.

Changes the price of the moment, 
and the very value of our 
existence....

Anointing the Lord
A woman who worshipped Jesus as Lord
anointed the head of him she adored.
     “What a costly waste,”
     Some said in distaste.
“It's for my burial what she has out poured”

Come and Find Me In My Solitude
Find me in my costly time
Reading books to learn
Puzzling phrases together
Tending the exciting crime
Surrounded with pen and paper so cute
Adorable in front of the table
Come and find me in my solitude...

Now As Her Property
As her own rare find, now seen
Of your avowed 'queen'
You'll need to protect it more
This your own person.

As some costly made sculpture
Likely to fracture
Safe wrap it, in sending out
To where days rage on....

Price of Success
Sometimes we strive
For success hoped on
Inside burns a drive
We tend to go on
Seaching for the unseen
Amidst hurdles and impediments
Costly prices we pay 
Draining our pockets clean

Dissonance
restless heart in need of flight
the time is drawing near
future bliss within his sight
in the present lives his fear

inhabit different pages
conscience shamed by guilty deeds
such sin has costly wages...

Costly Health
In the media, we are told
that lots of us, have too much guts

What we’re eating, is not the best
and what we’re drinking, makes us a pest

Its healthy food, that’s priced to the hilt
chop down the price, so we don’t feel the guilt...
