Whatever
I tried.
I cried.
I bleed.
Godspeed.
Haunted heart.
Impart.
Tears fall.
Feel small.
Gave up.
Mucked up.
Reality torn.
Well-worn.
Life; death.
no breath.
Through the storms through the perils
To REACH YOUR HEART I've been through
Suffered much endured so much
Survived it all, I brush it off
for my heart is as strong as any obstacle I face
Im swift I come with Godspeed
Form:
I’m going, I’m leaving
I’m going to tomorrow by bed
best travelling at night
where church bells speed the hours there
for my arrival at first light
to a newer land than today
and I’ve only packed my hopes
alas I often over pack
voyage of dismay
slow boat drift away
fluidic ink bring what may
godspeed through the grey
final words i pen not say
in love letter on mainstay
THE LAST LOVE LETTER
By David Kavanagh
Jesus died on a cross so I could live
He promised all my sins he would forgive
if you want to see God, you go through me he said
my blood is the wine in this cup, my body the bread
angel arms would fly me to Heaven at Godspeed
Not Me
Some mourned
His death
Today -
Not me
Someone
Killed him
They say -
Not me
He stole
My wife
And laughed -
Not me
I fear
Prison
That's why
Not me
His death
Improved
This Earth
Say I
He'll rot
in Hell
Godspeed -
Not me

sappy valentine
brown-eyed largesse broke my heart

David and I met 42 years ago on Valentine’s Day
in Navy “A” school. He brought me to see the
submarine trainer - awooga awooga (or gaga for short ;)
Dismal stars out
Contrite to feelings
The moon glows brightly.
The storm is inside.
Tears form as I cry.
Regret, I don’t.
Have I done wrong?
Here and now stand
Weeping for hope.
Willow tree
Sways in wind
Vision rapt
Hope gales.
Godspeed!
Life

face down
again tonight
this time
of the sacred cathode
all white ways
when it glowed
free, electric
flat-line
when to destroy
is to
defy his last request
soulfully
all the best
or not at all
Godspeed
with hearts and stars
edgewise
hold high your smartest blade
whom thou lovest
thou betrayed
without question
Form:
I’ll stay for as long
as you’ll have me
At least as long
as you have need
Until the time comes
that you no longer need me
Then bid me farewell
And Godspeed
E’en when I’ve gone
I’ll still be close by
In the flowers, in the wind…
In the Autumn leaves.
So if you should ever
Have need of me…Again
Open your window
And let in the breeze
All smiles
Go miles,
All cries
soon dies,
Face fears
shun tears,
All hate
can wait,
As such,
LOVE much,
Laugh off
a scoff;
Be kind
Save Wild,
Be wise
Shun vice,
Good deed
Godspeed,
Find nooks
Read books,
All's swell
ends well!.

the aura, godspeed ahead.
her countenance more than slaked,
it’s heated and apple baked.
fifty-somethings march with time…
sue ellen’s court supporting their queen,
with fanfare tea parties and costumes to preen.
steeped in fanciful color, like a dream at seventeen.
friendship and euphoria, sisters, well-bred
primped in gowns, fedoras and blossom in purple and red.
When you plant good seeds watch out for weeds. They will try to supersede and snuff out all good deeds.
Because weeds grow to impede and to do misdeeds. Once freed the weed will proceed to take the lead and have you treed indeed.
So take heed, when you plant your seeds, watch for weeds, if you feed, they will breed and will make you concede.
Proofread, then proceed with Godspeed.
Clouds heartshaped breaking
The downpours between us separating
Wrong to say I am in love
Wrong to seep in with this water
that's kissing and falling.
God, you drip so much into me.
The petrichor ~ on me ~ you fear
The petrichor ~ on you ~ you fear
The sky's cracks will slowly heal to blue
I will remember tight each tear for you
Since the rain overflows
My darling, go
My neon-hearted one,
vibrating throbs shining through
the soul-soaked night. It
is an endless ride
on this forlorn, pebble-skinned
autobahn; I still
can feel you out there.
Your heartstrings are like distant,
radio waves; such
beautiful white noise
attached to the senses of
mine anchoring me
into a godspeed
velocity just to safe
and sound; here and now reach you.
In the earth, I plant this weed
A magnificent plant indeed
Given refuge when in need
Taken away from the pain I bleed
In the earth, I plant this weed
High spirits for such a seed
Future well with Godspeed
Those who know, are those who read
In the earth, I plant this weed
An autumn moon takes the lead
Holding my breath I precede
Taking the chance, to succeed
~Leonard Napierskie
Form:
Do not miss your chance.
Take a leap into
the sea of unknown;
opportunity.
Go on, take that risk!
Find your passion,
chase that rainbow.
Godspeed, my friend.
Never look back!
On your marks,
get set, go!
Today, now.
Never
look back...
leap!

I
Dora was 82 this year
My onetime neighbor
Three years back
I was new again
From USA, I backtracked
She inspired me about Africa again
II
Jesus, she loved Thee well
We pray, shalom, live to tell
If an ordinary, great South African
Bye Tanie Dora, godspeed
You wanted to care for your needs
But Thatcher Home was there
For a while, you shared your flair
In faith and community spirit
Everything he knew was gone
Except what were his memories
The future and the dawn had merged
And passed away to history
He came to realize that fate
Had given him no guarantee
No foes to best or place to rest
No strength to fight or flee
So if you think you might have seen
Someone that looked a bit like me
With unsung deeds
Wish him Godspeed
For now there’s nothing left to see
Death and its mournful tidings
Obituaries and eulogies, read
Black ties and black veils, all in rows
Surround this shell and the open earth
The cold, damp wind sashays through and through
Memories, half a century old are lost and forgotten
A flight of geese overhead, perform a last flyover
Victory in death
Vestiges of family, say farewell and Godspeed
Tomorrow brings colder and damper weather
Fly oh dear butterflies,
like nothing can stop you,
spread your wings so wide,
that when you move it,
it makes a wind so strong,
enough to blow away the pain of your passing,
the tears caused by your departure.
Fly my dear butterflies,
Godspeed as you find your way home.
And should one of your kind comes into my life once again,
bless me with your love,
as I will always bless you with mine.
Blind date with a blind map,
oh Lord, where are my fingers running?
Are they again seeking out your heart?
For your body remains invisible
on uncharted lands
as your absence taking shape.
Godspeed with the Hand of Fate,
while mapping on the surface of this paper
for guiding me safe waters,
watching out the tides
while leaving nowhere
I reach you ashore,
"Geborgenheit" is the word;
safe & sound.
I never dreamed, I would see God riding a Harley
As fast as he goes it's called Godspeed
No matter what area you live in
He is there to help you, indeed
He goes through towns and cities,
Disguised like a man.
Just finding people,
Who really need a hand.
After awhile, he heads back on the road,
Listening to people, who are in need.
Checks on everything He created,
For He is the one, that planted the seed.
A gentle whisper
Throughout our hearts,
A memory never lost
A loving woman dear to our hearts.
Her smile would wipe away
The coldest of fears,
Her gentle love would wipe away
The endless tears.
Even though she has gone away
Her love and memory is always
Here To Stay!!
We love you Nana with everything
that we are and we know that you
are now walking in Glory with God,
and all of our lost loved ones.
Godspeed Nana
The last time I heard your voice
Was when you were on the S.S. Charlotte
You said I was ornery
For breaking your computer
I haven't heard from you since
No letters, e-mails, or phone calls
I'm worried sick
But I shouldn't be
Because you're worried about me
And my well-being
That's why you left for the Navy
To protect all of US
Literally the United States
And I am grateful
Godspeed to you, cousin
We're with you all the way
