who's 'fraid of poems?
not I, I said. Then again,
who's 'fraid of poems?...

dust finally clears
         lies crestfallen amongst peers   
               sunflowers worse fears
            nasty accident with shears
            fraid not ~ fell into arrears...

J-ust keep your heart aglow, 
H-aving the fire deep inside; 
I-n spite of the darkness, 
N-ew light is your 
G-uide. 

B-e brave and never be 
A-fraid of the pain; 
R-emain firmly in shape, 
L-et not the ache remain. 
I-ntensify your true faith, 
Z-one of hope awaits the morrow; 
O-n the ninth of July, just keep your heart aglow....

I didn't physically bury,
My lover, today.

I buried my heart
That is lost & fraid.

I buried a soul,
That's withered away.

I buried a love,
That's departed astray.

I buried a mind,
That is lost, in space.

I buried a spirit,
That use to have grace.

I've buried a beauty,
That's faded with age.

My heart, mind, body & soul
I surrender...I live no more......

I’m going out on a lark;
That I’m not fraid of the dark;
Though I be on point;
Not living the life in this joint
Suspect

Music moment of the time;
Rhythms and themes;
Tarnished polished dreams;
Not giving of sorts;
And in all of this, we all miss
Detective, detecting---
Suspect

Rationale rationed sparingly
Teetering on borrowed sanity
Logical minds toppling over
Betrayal finding four leaf clover

No Know faith is found willingly
Heaven's answer is filling free
But cold denied hearts beat out of tune
Fed from a mind of silvered spoon

Rational people come along then
While hell opens a big churly grin
Fraid to fly higher from its gaping maw
Run to the flock, wolf shall come call

Knock knock......

Hopes not dead
God has said
Believe in Him and there shall be
Loves not lost
It's at no cost
Believe in Him and you shall be given
Eternal life 
Don't be fraid
of what you've said
Repent and believe
And receive what God's offering
A child of God
Forgiven
Never let the sun go down on your wrath
Don't be soled
not even boiled
For angers not the way
Be silent
Be silent and pray

At times I am spontaneous
Quick to respond with wit and charm
Undaunted seeker of perfection
Afraid of causing pain or harm. 
Romantic traits are not neglected 
Imagination serves me well
Uranus powers my existence.
Safe are your secrets: I won’t tell!

Dante the depths thou searchest deep

Amidst  the pergatory sleep

Neither living yet not dead

Torn between the sheets of red

Enter and ye lose all hope

Spirit world spirit folk

Inside the dark and black despair

Not leaving till he finds her there

Fraid of nothing his soul may take

Enquires of hell, pleads for her sake

Restless wanting she must be close

Not retreating from what he desires the most

On otherside  craves see her ghost....

C-lick after you think, 
A-fraid of making mistake; 
R-eview what you've written, 
E-ncode what others won't forsake.
S-ave after you think, 
S-ure of making others smile; 
A-ll you have uploaded can cause either good or vile.

T-hink before you click, 
O-n June sixteenth day; 
R-ight decision you must make, 
R-ealizing clouds can turn into gray.
E-dit every word or video, using both eyes without a blink; 
S-ome viruses bring damage, click after you think....

Summer's mask behind glinting flowers—
'Fraid to be seen kneeling at their leaf;
In her passions swathed by the air—
With the blooming sweat to pull it off.

'Fraid to be seen kneeling at their leaf,
She endows her soul around stem's waist;
In her passions swathed by the air,
Like colors' shadows in probing moments.

She endows her soul around stem's waist;
In her passions swathed by the air,
Like colors' shadows in probing moments—
Summer's mask behind glinting flowers.
