Takes its toll as
In our daily stroll,we
From deepest ruts of blind alleys
Quicken.

Of love's invite
Encompassed my desire,
In two soft whispered words of love,
Be mine !

Of August sun
Where nature blinks and shrinks
The dying grass,yellowed in sleep-
Held fast

Eyes closed
As lips caressed,
Mouths joined,impassioned

Compounded In Verse
haiku seasons
frozen in epigrams
tripping from a pen
shadows lengthen
chestnuts roast-
winter bides
catkins murmur
easter eggs-
spring tides
bluebells chime
wasps picnic-
summer stays
flower presses
fruit preserves-
autumn frays...

My love
Beguiled me,with

Long thighs with rounded hips,twinned heart's

Life and Death Epigrams
It is not possible
refuse to die
or to live...!
live in leaps
and ravines, is a way
of living too...
not even death
give us rest
in life...
Death does not release us
from life...
the opposite is true
equally... !
Death is the mother of life,
life is spawn of death...
Divine plan!...

Happiness, Wants, Opportunity
Aphorisms, rather than EPIGRAMS (Choices are many in "forms of Poetry")
1. Happiness is not wanting to get what you dream of;
Happiness is wanting what you already HAVE now.
2. LISTEN. Always work on listening skills, for OPPORTUNITY often knocks very softly.
(DEO). shalom, shalom. ShalOM
(Ask me about why Jesus is so real to me, about SHALOM)....

A Christian Disposition
A PURPOSE FILLED LIFE
Teach me O Lord,the wisdom of Your word,to praise as David praised
Maybe to suffer as with Job.To love as Solomon in his Song and to belong.
Guided by Proverbs, epigrams to employ and understand life as Ecclesiates,and will to will Your will. Yet come aside& in your arms be still.

Epigram 1
If you see a man in the park
Looking up to the sky, ignore him.
He is most likely a poet
Lost in the labyrinth of words.
Epigram2
Do not assume the man in the park
Dressed in a woolly overcoat and
Laughing like he is looking into
A kaleidoscope is necessarily a poet.
Epigram 3
If you see a man in a café writing
Something in his note pad, he is
Most likely an accountant late for
Work, evaluating his excuses....
