Flaws
   
Loved ones, hear me; set blame free.
For the fault that we beseech
Lies not in whom, but how do we
Retrieve the games, flaws entreat.

?         


              


                expended and exhausted
                electorate, eager egos
                envision, entreat

There is a beauty that covers with clouds.
But even cries of help don't reach its careful sound.
Entreat and persist and it'll have you blocked.
Money and bling will only make you look ponged.
No covet will reach it but you still plead it out loud....

The subway steams in August heat.
At 3 A.M. a lover’s tryst.
Alone at last two in one seat.
The subway steams in August heat.
Their limbs entwine and hips entreat.
He strokes her hair and steals a kiss.
The subway steams in August heat.
At 3 A.M. a lover’s tryst....

trinkets
goblets
jewels
expensive fabric 
buggies and mules 

these things entreat the first queen's hear with fuel 

autumn leaves 
burgundy trees 
blue skies
stories of how others survived
the trials and tribs of life

I'll be the second queen tonight...

Stop the madness, I entreat. 
On Southside, Chicago Street
Sparked rat-a-tat of gunfire. 
A toddler caught in crossfire!

Increase this peace, Entreat this thrift, 
Enstill this milf, Reveal this ease, 
Release this miss, Never refute this 
pen, Eighteen cornseeds eaten by the 
hen, Instilled by our zen, Those 
seventh heights well learned, These 
salient words very well earned; Selah.

Sweet death, have me tarry not,
greet me, for comes the morn.
Cheat the sun, that I may sleep,
complete as if ne'er born.

Entreat, do I, your embrace.
Defeat my heartbeat this night.
Meet me mid a last dreaming,
secrete this soul from sight.

Falling riffs like spangled gold,
And sounding drums seem to explode
A surge of tapping, dancing feet,
The piano’s notes, mon coeur entreat.
Cherie amour the air is ''sweet'', so silver laced,
Each face reflects another’s shine
As endeavours fruit is taken in
Like fragrant mellow wine.

Sweet, sweet, can't be beat
What a treat, love to eat
Veggie meat, cookie sheet
Oats and wheat down the street.

Take a seat off your feet
Here to greet friends from Crete
Cuban Pete in the sleet
Areet pleat, neat, petite.

The elite ocean fleet
No defeat, no retreat
Never cheat, just compete
I entreat my parakeet....

I entreat tonight
the sparkling Light
might
surround you

I entreat
by day
that, come what may
no dark thing confound you

I entreat before tomorrow
an end to your grief
May seraphs
sing, and astonish you

May this be a real prayer for the little children & moms of GAZA

(Let us stand against killing people of GAZA)...

Blistering and scorching sands
  Land of the hushed and crushed hands
Up the creepy furs clasping 'round
  Ebbing scraped sand of ants' mound

Mortars of the deep and steamy skies
  O'er peals and dreamy flies
Off the reef passerine of stormy glides entreat
  New leaf flit, strength above my feet...

Sunsets tweak, marvels at its peak...

J-ust listen to your heartbeat, 
H-ear the rhythm inside; 
I-t shall silently give
N-othing but spiritual
G-uide.

L-isten to your heartbeat, 
A-llow it to teach; 
J-ust let your clear conscience
E-ndorse your hands that reach.
R-epeated pattern of sounds
A-ims to implore or entreat; 
S-unday September third, listen to your heartbeat....

Diputs.' Its a reality.)
Some keep casting it out..'
Hoping 'all' will catch on'
So far only 'the super woke'
Have owned it..they were told..
That its 'Stupid' not, to have it..!
I've been trying to get rid of it..)
For many years..Still !

One persons meat.'
And poisons..You know?
And other treats plus
A stupid trait.'
How I entreat.!...

WAITING FOR THE FLEET

                  
                              ..... Dawning....

                               Yellow whispers....

                               Another day I wait,

                               Entreat the winds of salty spray--

                              .....Come home....

A fragile beauty, fluttering with ease
  Floats upon a summer breeze

 With delicate wings of tangerine
 Its flight is lovely and serene

 It flutters into fields of gold
 As the summer day unfolds

 A flower opens to entreat
 To entice with nectar sweet

 Upon this flower it then alights
 And sips the nectar with delight 
                     ~...

Beseech means to ask someone urgently and fervently to do something; implore; entreat.

Congress We Must Beseech

What we want to do is Congress beseech,
A non-loving Trump who is also a leech,
With no give,
And is imperative,
Begin procedure and start to impeach.

How loving was Ruth. With her husband dead,
she stayed with his mother most willingly.
“Entreat me not to leave,” she said.
Better than seven sons was she
to her mother-in-law, Naomi.

Wither thou goest, I shall go,”
said Ruth as she left her homeland behind.
Great joy were Ruth and Naomi to know.
A kinsman for Ruth to wed they would find,
and a baby would bless them - for Ruth had been kind!...

I search your woods, I walk them long
Through every twilight mood and beat;
Sometimes,  the mirage peals  a storm
Or gushes rain as ferns entreat.

Last night the fireflies bright as stars
Pound on my chest like stones' mild tap
A whispered breeze speaks our memoirs
On hanging vines as buds unwrap.

Over in the sky,
Inebriating clouds 
Wobble no more;
Both snowy, murky sides,
Don't blend together,
To sparkle any more;
Dry lake in wait of rain,
Gaze at scattered clouds;
Entreat thou to forgive,
The sins by living soul;
Supplicate for some drops,
Come, come drop thy 
Emotive drops of nectar;
Quench my thirst;  
Wet my deep burning soil;
Fertile me so I bloom,
All life form rely on me;

Cradle me in darkness, before my flight.
Relaxing let me live my dream so true.
Again, I entreat you to set my desires free.
Delight my senses set my vision in truth.
Laugh not at wishes; they are my design.
Earthborn from the Angels delivered here.

My existence a falsehood for way to long,
Only you can bring my caprice to reality.
One soul delivered from a torment I live.
Now cradle moon bring peace to your child....
