Paul's Halloween Poem

On Halloween, ghosts are seen,
skeletons too, they may be you,
Trees come alive at night,
Gorillas too,
They may be you.

Beautiful Blessing

My firstborn's face was ever beautiful,
and, try as it might, nothing will compare.
Its light has my heart--indisputable!
A blessing I try to share with great care.
With awe, I find new blessings in the air

Straighten Up and Fly Right

In the meadow, a tragedy befell
a mother butterfly by a wishing well. 
She'd wished for a son who could fly all crooked,
but a witch's curse prevailed, so wicked.
Her firstborn had the preposterous trait
of flying up and staying straight.

Harvest

A feast on your honour 
Gold, silver and our first harvest 
I also give to you my only son, 
firstborn .
Treat him well
Paint your walls with
 flowers from his blood 
Leaves , buds and thorns in red. 
I give to you a white lamb , 
A first born too .

Harrison

Hope for eternal life
Always the firstborn son
Really glad to be alive
Ready to travel
Interesting story teller, 
Smart
Only young for a short time
Nice and sweet, and proud of his accomplishments




a tribute to Harrison Hilley in my children's church class.

True Radiance

True Radiance

There is no glow as bright as a mother
With her firstborn in her arms;
Disheveled like the sun rays
Of a child’s Crayola sun.

A smile that stretches and freezes for days,
Except while her eyes turn down and gaze
Upon that radiance of her loving babe
Eyes to eyes in love.

Awareness: Silence and Rest

Float upwards 
Away from thoughts 
To rest
Kingdom of rest 
Wisdom alone lives 
With no judge 
Float up 
Passed idea 
Float up 
Passed the truth 
Passed bright grace 
Above firstborn mind 
Passed the mother of sounds 
One 
Silent one of light

Kataya

A gulf as wide
As the ocean
Exists between
You and me.
Though the distance 
Is great,
And the silence
Screams,
My love for you will
Never change.
It will ever be
As strong…
Strong and steady...
As the very first time
I heard
Your heart beat.
You are my firstborn
And will
Always be my baby.
I love you
Kataya.

Blushing Bride

My wilted, rotten, Rose bouquet –My veil, a crown of thorns.
As dowry to me Master gave a tail to match my horns… 
and promised me the one to rule would be but my firstborn.
So something borrowed, something blue my broken Heart becomes.
Now I with sorrow say ‘I do’ to love but only one… 
the one of which I stand before with Dreading Dress undone.

Hellbound

A spawn of a demon
The firstborn was sacrificed
Though not fatally
Death still filled her soul
For offering to the devil
The monster took all she was worth

Forcefully, the two became one
Demons implanted into her soul
Never to be whole again

The girl pleas for restoration
Silent cries going unheard
And where is God in all this?
Probably watching alongside

Firecrackers

Two hearts met:
“firecrackers,” they said,
nearly six months apart,
‘works right from the start.
like rockets, their feet
shot off from the ground,
the sound most spectacular
a feat fated
for inextricable hearts.
Catherine wheels
connected for life, with
sparkler hands,
and of course,
she labored
with their firstborn
on Labor Day
and their youngest
inclined to kiss Christmas.

Military Firework

He said the undiplomatic cost
to all of us freedom celebrators,
to firstborn sons and daughters,
to last born future children,
would be far less
than its liberating value.

Value for and against whom?

Value for and against what healthy purpose?

Value for and against which wealthy constituents?

He couldn't say,
or wouldn't,
or shouldn't

Because he couldn't listen
and wouldn't savor 
democratic peace.

Lacrima

A small secretion gave him away,
the tough marine who had yomped in a day
from San Carlos to Stanley, served in Helmand,
but now was defeated by the tiniest hand
that gripped his finger and wouldn't let go,
he swallowed hard, no feelings could show
the chink in his armour, that hard carapace,
as that small secretion rolled down his face
from eyes that looked down, completely undone
by this scrap of humanity, his firstborn, his son.

My Firstborn Son

He watches, observes and loves with all his heart
Reservedly waiting to see reciprocation or active participation
Thinking, offering ideas for all to embrace,
Satisfaction to behold and a joy that floods his young face.

Considering others in wake of their pain
He goes the extra mile to ensure protection and such detailed accomplishment
While allowing others to make their own mistakes,
He reflects a sweet combo of trust and consideration.

For My Firstborn

I loved you beyond the night
my heart stopped, ushering you forth

I loved you with every fiber of my being
leaving to be bread winner

I loved you with such closeness
you were fledgling beneath my arm pit

I, who loved you in pain and heartache
refused to give you up

Because I loved the way you stood
awakening life in me when I fell

I loved you, though I was green with youth
in my veins; the iris of mine eyes as small as my pupils

Joy

What is joy?
It is a small child on Christmas morn.
A new mom, cuddling her firstborn.

Some fight so hard to keep it away.
They battle daily to keep it at bay.
Afraid to let it in.
In their ways, they are too set in

Others welcome it with a full embrace,
living full of grace.

It is all around,
running here and there like a merry-go-round.

Without the time to witness
we will never feel it's gentle caress.

Mum

MUM

always there

     mums the word

after all her eyes

     are everywhere

in the backseat

              drying all

the steamy windows

   winking at you

opening the car door

       chasing away

the tawdry blond

   it’s all for the good

of her handsome son

           she won’t let you get away

and she’ll chase you down

                to plant a kiss

on her firstborn 

                         toddler son
