anticipation
the wait finally over
stars are in my eyes

magnificent blooms
in halls of expectancy
moonlit windowpanes

sing my nightingale
your love song at the sunset
music in the night...

Fools Rush In
Anticipation
It invalidates
Delivers total
Culpability
Causing mind vagueness.

Expectancy 
It destroy facts
Drags out agony
Uncertainties.

Eagerness
Fools rush in
Famished hope.

Belief
Fickle

Hope...

Expectancy
A mind erodes
Each day more,
Further down roads
Never been before.

A heart explodes
Early one morning,
Before life corrodes,
Left without warning.  

There’s no choice
How we go.
Remember to rejoice,
You never know....

Daffodils burst forth splendor,
Winter surrenders its robe
Of white as the light of spring
Warms the season of expectancy.

pure buds everywhere
it's the first of sunny spring
March holds its fresh breath

keen for wild soon days
when gold sun passes the stars
and hues light the hours

expectancy lust
striking beauties are coming
dancing to birdsong...

Premium Member Two ships crossed
eyes met
faces lit up
in expectancy 
but the distance
between head and heart
could not be bridged
innocence wept
gifted moment lost
for now ethereal vibrations 
recognising oneness
remain barren
denied the caress
of love sublime by touch...

Life Expectancy
Second, minute, hour, day, month, year
Our life is rounding here
Just a watch shows us
Time passes,
Our figure tells us
Life passes,
Our generations wait
For the moment,
Our expectancy finishes, therefore,
One day all will see we are no more....

1951
Broken in circles,
this
spiral
down.

A remnant, 
a relic,
valid.

A black mass,
in vacuums,
incision.

Specimens,
cultured.

Future calling,
sleep,
docile now,
humble.

Humanity.

The expectancy of life.
This pregnancy of hope....

Raise your children please.
It is only sex
Sad they think this way
One date, and in bed.
Disservice to youth

Staunch, spine straight as a flagpole
    Chin tucked into neckfolds of flesh
  Face itch, lips blubber incessantly... 

    Hips thrust forward... twin bulldozers
  Life expectancy, a speck in a sandstorm
    Rows of medals under gray sash, Iraq...

Be There Before You Get There
Be There Before You Get There!
Be there in your spirit. Touch it with your heart.
Know that God is with you, even from the start.
Let faith be your friend and doubt your enemy.
Prepare to receive with gratitude and expectancy.
Be There Before You Get There...

visitors coming
expectancy afternoon
a hush in the blooms

saffron soon Sunday
and cardinal sings redly
cream clouds paint blue sky

butterflies flitting
through the forests of color
and scents of welcome

jazz in the treetops
near a door always open 
brighter days have come...

Premium Member The Life Expectancy Depends On You
The life of a ship
                                                 depends on how you build it.
                                                          Strive for perfection.

Presentiment Convalescent
Romance is kindled
by fiery ashes dwindled

Cares not for anguish
wants to clear languish

Prepare for the searing
expectancy is cheering

Figure craves wholeness
restoring health focus

Connecting with deities
rejecting ancient theories

Replacing the torment
with ageless advent

Let us commence fasting
our creation everlasting...

Life Expectancy
>center>LIFE EXPECTANCY

Every time you have sex, so the experts say,
You shorten your life by ten minutes.
I used to think it was worth the risk;
There was probably nothing in it.
But now I’m old and the end is in sight,
I don’t even kiss, just in case they’re right.

Premium Member A Walk In Moist Woods
The pensiveness of the sky
is broken by the cry of a crow,
by trees distilling intimacy
and moist, vibrant expectancy.
Violets, ferns, and birches
share life-giving vapors.
The chalk-bleak horizon
and pungent, poignant odors
whisper sonorous secrets.
The visitor is enveloped
in this pithy, soulful world,
all cells saturated
with a suggestive sustenance....

Journey's End

Life expectancy
but a breath of existence
from eternity.
           ***

Life expectancy
but a thousand mile journey
to eternity.

Note:
   A 'li' is known as a Chinese mile and is approximately one third of an English mile or 500 kilometers. A thousand li, metaphorically, refers to a long journey....
