Short Credence Poems

While I appreciate the vacation
it would have been better if it were paid.
Funds lessened by nature’s aggravation,
lends credence to the starved artist charade....

May the Lord express
        His credence
In thee, and let the
        Caliber
          -Of-
His conflations'
     Be surreal
In regards' to his
   Expectations'

Letting up
provides 
the tightest 
grip  

Creating
space for
credence
to stick

Room
to wander
room
to grow

Space
when sacred
truth
— to know

Secret Or Not?
(Snapper) 

I’m hot
Not not. 

Tell all
Sell all. 

But no
Can ho. 

Talked shop
No pop. 

Credence
Sentence. 

Then shunned
Well tonned. 

Oh well
All’s well....

Lies and the truth
both fade into memory
Time caring not
whether credence or farce

Married together
they drift into silence
Passing forgotten
—through legend and curse

waspish
& coarse!
an ear-loathe
of a stinging credence:

o, loutish 
... exhibits 
at my forest’s edge –

& elders collapse
at devouring
songs –

a ministry of
moth-suckling
babe-bees of 
my ether being!...

If at first, you don't succeed, forget skydiving
Another smart idea, don't talk on your cell phone while driving
I could go on and on
You guys know the old song
Credence Clearwater's “Bad Moon Rising”...

Where does laughter go
when the smiles are gone

Where does music go
when stripped of its song

Where does credence go
when truth suicides

Where do voices go
—when breath is denied

Some animals and sea creatures use camouflage
To avoid their faces being chewed off on their behalf
Usually browns and greens
Results add credence to the scene
But giraffes only had their legs chewed in the attack...

A voice silenced, speak no more
Hold, my tongue in obedience
Words to neither deny nor defy
Defenseless without credence


Verbal insanity, senseless score
Spewed as mindless nonsense
Words to neither elate nor clarify
Ignorance creating only impedance...

The credence of life
Looking for some confidence
Given depreciation
There is nothingness
Where is appreciation
Treasure hunting for passion
Investing in hope

Such a interesting word

Transcending in nature.....For Some

Lost in a second.......for others

The Naked Truth 

Pride or Restitution Will Dress the Day

Simple Choice For Some......Gray texture for others.......

Statue, is that you
No it's not, it's me
Statues are made of plaster
They don't have skeleton or skin
So I think it's a disaster
To say I could be akin
To a statue
Statue has no credence at all
The only place a statue lives
Is on a pedestal in our hall...

Standing beside the woods,
I await a breeze to embrace me.

Sitting at the seashore,
I foresee up surging tides cuddle me.

Blooming like a prismatic flower,
I watch butterflies caress me.

My credence that you will hug me tight,
I hang onto the belief !!!


"Hugs"...

Who are you that allows you to predict
What gives you this credence to continually persist

When will scientists learn now we're the only ones here
Where there was likely to be life, nothing is now near

Why would anyone come, when we can't undo our undone...

Before I come home my dear, dear lover I know we are getting older I will always be with you. I understand you are fearful by the dominating thoughts of death and the unknown. Have credence my sweet darling for I know there is no final act and only we become a franchise of love....

The Moon knows never to gossip,
keeping secrets close to the heart;
Buttoned up tight whispers don’t slip,
nothing pries what’s sacred apart;
Never one with an aimless dart,
brazen wishes know where he stands;
A loaded plan cannot outsmart 
credence the cosmos understands....

We all believe in something,
  some choose to call it God

Belief the common mantra,
  we’re living in awe of

Be it physics, space, or prophecy,
   a credence young or old

Many candles through the darkness burn
  —with one light to behold

Listen to poem:

in my sleep whisk me away
take me in your arms
to the depths of your world

let me wake in your embrace
give no credence
to the barriers between us

let us for a while
believe love can prevail
and defeat the demons
haunting our world

IN YOUR SUNSHINE I BATHED 


Coming out of the shadows of doubt  
I bathed myself in the sunshine of your credence
And rinsing my uneasiness with your calming reassurance,
Cleansed thus, whole I became once more-
A newly born heart- ready to love
Again!

The times we decide to put credence in others, 
Comes the time when said credence is made null.
Null and void.
The mind becomes devoid 
Devoid of trust. Why?
Devoid of faith. Why? 
The flabbergast that accompanies the 'shattering,'
Sometimes; no extrapolation.
No deduction. 

Shattered trust....

Hearts all together
        .................gather

        Birds on the wire
        .... .....music line

        Oh wind blows in my favor
        ... ........ i need approval

        My love, your reliance
        ............ my credence

        Poet sings the love
         ..............with love !...

With our thoughts and perceptions
we give credence to separation:
a self which experiences the world
the world we have always known..
Better however..an apparent self
seeming to experience an
unfolding world..
Even Better..an unperturbed Self
colored and shaped
but knowing only My Self..
But perhaps Best..simply I am......

Song from the Jukebox

		A cautious experiment of the mind,
		it flows over couples as they dance
		and lends credence to their stance
		as cathartic words unwind.
	
		Strongly felt are the thoughts projected;
		as they gently intrude upon each heart,
		mending what might have fallen apart;
		each life has been affected....

We may feign credence
Where there is none,
We may smile warmly
Under the sun;
But that which we do
When no one is near,
Is what tells the truth
About who we are.

We may seem caring
When all eyes observe,
We may act humbly
Less than we deserve;
But that which we do
When no one rewards,
Is what tells the truth
About who we are....
