Short Dissensions Poems

It is the season
Buck up that chin and break-out that grin
Remember-not your sins but those that are your friends
A new year is almost here
Forget your dissensions and others' transgressions
The time is to begin-again,
And think-not what could have been


                                                  '06...

Sometimes plans just go awry
Despite your best intentions.
Then you rally and you try
Assorted interventions.

The Now ~ my master's rumble
 ~ speaks, implodes
it's to my feet ~ the jumper
 ~ must explode
God's call remerits wonder
 ~ my unmold!...

I'd rather not be guessing
I may not care for what they say
Or points they are professing 

But as long, as there's respect
Void of all pretension
I agree to disagree 
With them and their dissensions 

Should that make them enemies
I hope that's never true
For, we need each others thoughts
To help expand our views

If I should seem to say a word
To cause anger in their eyes
I hope they do, what I've learned do
And just let it ride on by...
