While We Were Poets

Riding these roller coasters we would rise; ingenious skies....
Ever tracing as facing daunting time dangling, from it's edge a verse
She would climb ?

Zay

A football player named Zay
Made an exceptional play.
The ref called it flaunting, 
But I thought it quite daunting.
Can't a guy celebrate a great day?

A Compelling Adversary

Fear, always a compelling and daunting adversary -
To sanction fear in my life is to reject the power within.
That I am made in the image of God, I must believe!

A Tears' Path

Emotions a mess 
Heartfelt duress
Released by a wink
Propelled by a blink
A path down my cheek
So daunting and sleek
A wet salty tear is free
No longer held back by me.

Pirouettes

Thou morning sun, ye stars and orb of night,
ye daunting winds inducing clouds to roll
proclaim thy Maker’s beauty, grace, and might;
thy pirouettes declare His firm control.

Doom's Date - Mar 5

Doomsday’s dismal dawn, in the deep distance, 
Is our dusk, the diadem of decadence;
Daunting and depthless, a dark and doleful dirge 
Deems this dungeon of demons due for death

Despair Appalling

Daunting I am here, merely a fear
worth haunting. 
In dearly & aware so exhausting, clearly there 
& defaulting. 
Nearly Despair Appalling, severely I swear 
it isn’t stopping.

'a-Haunting' Art Did Go

Art dug down, into the depths of his soul
Turned up the darkest fears, black as coal
   He'd gone 'a-haunting'
   But found it daunting
Wondered, 'Am I he for whom the bell tolls?'

Rings Of Saturn Rondelet

Rings of Saturn 
glowing light from three years away;
Rings of Saturn,
they dance for every Capricorn;
Built tough for a wintery day,
grit a daunting cosmic display;
Rings of Saturn.

Trying to hard

Clever in my literacy 
Impaired in my itinerary 
Noted for variety 
Daunting in my propriety 
A jaunting of notoriety 
For wanting serenity 
exempted from purity
Quaint in obscurity

Casper

Casper, the friendly ghost, comes calling
For those who know not, it is daunting
There is no way to know
His choice - door or window 
Even through walls, we see him flying

Holidays

Holidays
              poised,  phony
  passing, daunting, demoralizing  
  Prizes, Money,  Memories, Gifts 
 unyielding, warming, reassuring 
           candid,  authentic 
                    Today.

Dread

I
dread
boredom
wakefulness
the silence panics
My life has spun out of control
Embarking on a new day is a daunting task now
I must escape from this suffocating prison before I descend further into madness.

Haiku maxim for everyday life

Expect the sudden  
Pray for preparedness of heart 
For time has power

When you’re spending
Pay out exact expenses
Do it first in your home

Perfectionism
Is daunting to execute
Excellence requires not

The Deaf

Discouraging words were uttered to him 
They tried to halt him from reaching his dream 
But he did his very best 
He tried hard to reach his quest 
He was too deaf to hear their daunting scream

Lock Step

Will is the executive … 
 intellect advisor
Choice as a marriage
the two must condone

Committed and daunting
with guideposts of knowledge
Marching in tandem
— pursuing the truth

Scarecrow's Watch

Abandon moon, leaves  star filled night 
Biting wind howled,  darken sky affright 
Crossed the golden field left or right   
Daunting job just standing with eyes shut tight 
Elating,  not a crow in sight

Awoken

I am awoken,
By the idea of greatness.

I am unable,
To sleep until greatness comes.

The work that precedes,
Daunting is the path I chose.

I am most hungry,
With a competitive flame,
That won't waver in the wind.

Bambi

Fleet eccentric sounds ascended
Within silence they blended
Anonymous was the kiss
Tantalizing yet taunting
Delightful yet daunting
Upon bones echoes shift
A novelty ever evolving
Refrain from resolving
‘Twas your touch I missed
