Putting on the style at Grande Yatte*
'stipletized' by Georges Seurat
in pointillist perfection
on the eye a 'delectation'...

for his delectation

Serious labour,    we get boreD

Delectation
By: Miracle Man

When making Shrimp Alfredo,
I feel delectation. 
Its aroma never fails,
in starting juices to flow. 
The quantity is usually,
for a two day ration.
Even Alfredo leftovers,
give me an afterglow.

Your tender voice anointing my ears
        the delectation of my spoken name
that look of adoration in your eyes,
 speaks to me softly 'neath intensely lit moons,
    'midst subtly mesmerizing whispered passion
             lost in quintessential heart's surrender...

giving your heart a knead

thanking you for kindness in return amission

taking you in with speed

equanimity revels in my passionate quest

meeting my needs to charm

Adonai authors all,
anticipates all,
altruistically acts,
accomodating* acrimonious aliens,
allowing adoptive access.

Beloved bestows blessing,
begetting bliss,
birthing born-again believers.

Creator conveys
captivating covenental communiques;
creatures cogitate,
construct creedal confessions.

Divine drama,
documented,
drives doctrine,
develops delighted disciples
drinking deeply,
delivering doxologies.

We enjoy reading poems from the past.
They describe those ages, their horrors.
Should we regret delectation as we suck in,
and smile at, repugnance, misery, sadness?

Should we repel such poems of sorrow
choose only humour, gladness, joy?
So easily can we turn our backs on
misery that tortures so many.

So quickly may we lie on the ground,
punch it with clenched hands,
roar with our cries; or may we smile,
get up, forget what is so far behind us?
