Premium Member Speck of Dust

Clean the screen, begone speck of dust
Whoops, that's home!
Dust to dust becoming
So insignificant
Bespectacled unspotted


Destiny Date

For me, the mere sight of a bust
Gives me a thrill exciting lust
As time goes by
I wonder why
It always ends just dust to dust . . .

From Me To You

Ashes to Ashes 
Dust to Dust
I shed my ashes
Onto those who believe
To those who love me 
To those who need me
Ashes to Ashes

Dust To Dust

written poems by sisters, brothers
always judged by someone’s druthers
never judged with hearts of mothers
judged by how one writes, no other’s

Longing

My soul I am not sorry for,
Before this one life, I lived before.
Dust to dust, I do not know,
A confession that has left me quite and insucure.

C'Est La Vie

"Ashes to ashes; dust to dust"?
It seems our lives our filled with lust
When facing the sod
Who cares about God?
Give us a girl with a big bust!

Spell of Silence

From din of day,
Till death holds sway,
In grave you lay...
Ha, solitude!

The reign of hush,
Where the worms rush,
Dust to dust crush...
Ha, quietude!

Satan Is

SATAN is:

a mind bending
  never ending
     reptilian 
    slithering
   underbelly
      licking
    taste of
ashes to ashes
      and 
dust to dust 
      fame.

Premium Member Young Billy Buck

Young tough Billy Buck,
had one more puff.
Then went for his gun,
and ran out of luck.
He was tough, but not fast.
two slugs his last gasp.
Here lie's young Billy Buck,
Ash to Ash, Dust to Dust

Premium Member Whatever shall the old uncles do?

The day dawns arid and dry,
even the houseflies refuse to come out.

Whatever shall the old uncles do
to count the minutes until sunset?

It really doesn’t matter much,
it’s ashes to ashes; dust to dust.

Long Live . . .

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust 
Oh but why on earth did I make such a fuss
Kicking and screaming they dragged me to my fate
Upholding my legion I suffered extensive berate
But why isn't chocolate a more feudal must!!

Premium Member Life After Life

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
body form returns to earth’s crust,
whilst soul eternal, yet lives on,
soon in another realm reborn,
until each desire’s relinquished
and all ego spawned fears vanquished.

Generous Lady

Ashes to ashes  
Dust to dust, many tears shed  
Mother in laws dead

Lawyers called, wills read
Hope she left me something good  
Dear mother in law

Im please to tell you
She left two million dollars
Lucky cats dogs home

Dust

Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Everything is eventually taken by rust
And sooner or later gold will lose its lush
And the things living without silence
Begin to hush
This is lifes water
It is a rush
And in a blink
It begins to flush

Premium Member Forest Haven

Forest shadows
Hiding grave secrets
Protecting her animals
Seeing humans for who they are
Keeping wise counsel

Revealing nothing
Sweeping secrets into her dead leaf piles
Allowing dust to dust
Sanctuary for some
Refuge for all

Quatrain #866:
DUST


Dust to dust shows a stream of light,
Urge mellows flow in glimpse of sight;
Sense comes to know a precious grace,
Truth prompts a glow of profound flight.

After Life

Ashes to ashes,
Dust to dust,

While you were alive,
Who did you trust,

Did you trust the One,
That did so much,

Or were you blinded,
By vanity,the evil touch,

The choice was yours,
Who did you choose,

God,you have won,
The devil ,you loose......

Together

Past present and future
Space the tutor

Creations past 
Vision in the vast

Minds to small to see
Creations mystery

Tiny stars we see
Time and space infinity

Who and what we are
Written in the stars

Dust to dust forever
Our souls joined together

Just the Two of Us

All we needed was us
Thanks for being the one I could trust
When time passed, our love didn't rust
The only one that's been there since comb and brush
I'll be the only one true as the sun
I swear; my loves since birth
Till ash to ash and dust to dust
Just the two of us

Detritus

(A poem in Troiku style) 

Detritus 

blanket of decay
new life teeming underneath
it's time to crawl out

blanket of decay
in death leaves sustain new life
dust to dust returned

cycle unending
in death leaves sustain new life
dying duty done

Premium Member Dust To Dust Ashes As My Truest Soul Rises-

These polish bones Once brightest gold Now aged worn Tarnished Bronze Morrow age crusted Spirit soul Heaven bound Intrusted Fly spirit fly Onward towards heavens skies As my truest self so rise

Ashes to Ashes

A devoutly religious man once said to me, "Everything you touch turns to dust when it should be turning into gold!" Afterwards I thought to myself, "Has he really forgotten that it is written, 'Ashes to ashes, dust to dust'?" So now I'm left wondering: was he criticizing me or God?

Premium Member Eternal Flame

From dust to dust 
Earthly body must return
For eternal life
The soul must learn

Do no harm
Much love to emphasise
No fear just calm
The soul will rise

Discover all that is arcane
When we pass from here to there
The pinnacle eternal flame
Before we leave wisdom to share
Form: Rhyme

Old

I am old
old and grey
and my life 
It fades away

memorys of
the past
sadden me
for they don't last

and the times 
that we share
fade away
and no one cares

all the things 
that we made 
are thrown away
once we fade

ash to ash
dust to dust
and we are 
just because
