For many years
I longed for a woman that really knew me
until at last I found her.
She really knows me -
divorce pending.
Despair not,
The wound is superficial
The arrow only grazing
Your death mask delayed
The pain is real
But the end,
far from us
Imprisoned by limitations
Delayed by fear
Bound by contracts
In servitude of the dollar
Grueling
Not fair
No acceptance
This is not life
Too long she'd delayed --
Since he was deathly afraid
Her last card she played:
Please, please Lord, Help him to see
I'm his if he'd just ask me
Early viewpoint set,
Made so by a high
opaque wall,
Yet spilling gold
And lighting the upper edge,
Twilight had a delayed start.
Suddenly
there arises
the end of what
never was~
what never was
may seem to have
delayed the end
but what never was
never began~~
We all seem delayed.
We all dissuade.
We all seem afraid.
We all seem strayed.
And then in a decade,
We all evade.
And then in another decade,
We all fade.
A flawless ceremony,
and elegant reception,
followed by long honeymoon
delayed by snowfall.
For John Freeman's love /humor contest Won 2nd place
Trudging down the same path
Present equals past
Red clay
My problems outlast
The runes have been cast
Astray
A delayed forecast
Emotion outcast
I failed
morning coffee delayed by an hour
we view as fortunate this earth life test
it lets us check if our mood has gone sour
such are adversities we overcome in light jest
The reporter was thrown for a loop,
Her intentions were "Just get the scoop"!
But the scoop was delayed,
Constipation betrayed-
Sadly, stuck in the shoot was the poop!
EVERY DEATH CHEATED, ESCAPED, PREVENTED OR AVOIDED IS A DEATH DELAYED.
PREPARE FOR DEATH TODAY
IT IS ONLY THEN YOU WON'T PERISH EVEN IF YOU DIE
IN ALL YOUR PLANS, ADD DEATH
A nine inning game
for some it brings fame
for others its too lame
and its only a game
so much being paid
some games are delayed
Its a summer game
Baseball is the name
In our office, do you remember our Jean?
She's insist to be late was obscene
Once delayed for a booking,
She had crossed without looking,
Now a bridge marks where she had once been.
We sure got walloped in the overnight hours
Snow piled up, covering all the pretty flowers
Spring's delayed
Until April or May
Tried but I failed using my super powers
Trump Never Delayed
We did discover that it was never delayed,
Trump for a fool by Putin had been played;
Lips pucker;
Real Sucker,
And into a moron again he had been made.
Jim Horn
Trump A Big Baby
As big baby in balloon Trump was displayed;
Everyone around he troubled and dismayed;
Breath taker;
Trouble maker,
And infants back to parents he had delayed.
Jim Horn
Another year's passed
In the blink of an eye
Time to take stock
Once more to ask
What, When and Why
What have I accomplished?
When will I do more?
Why have I delayed?
~ Wherefore?
Were Dismayed While Being Afraid
We put things off and them had delayed;
After seeing bad results were dismayed;
Must be sure,
Can endure;
Never did it again after becoming afraid.
Jim Horn
they have awoken
but yet not spoken
ending dream still intact
but sensory they lack
visions not yet found
lazy distant muffled sounds
delayed feeling of sensation
awareness held for re-creation
Long life, lived in full, longing for death's impending embrace;
my fate's final freedom wavers on two fronts, like old Simeon's.
Departure's deep desire is delayed by a first great grandchild.

World Series
two-thousand eight
strange
written May 18, 2016
5 lines, 6 words, 10 syllables,
the only time a World Series game
was delayed and Philadelphia benefited.
Days pass and I wish I could pour out my mind as a man
It has been delayed reluctantly of which decision to make
In fear of his reaction and his possible take
For culture demands man grace to woo and not woman
Endurance
Sat on the terrace
Waited for stars.
It was overcast
Delayed a bit longer.
Then it was morning
And rain fell.
Big drops
In each one
I saw
An echo of stars
Too tiny
To see
by the naked eye.
Booked well in advance, for a trip to visit with family
Due to inclement weather, waiting to board flight, twice delayed
Pass lost –weather improves-Pass found by Gate staff at coffee shop
