Accepting One's Destiny

Preferable it is one's destiny cheerfully to embrace 

save to be compelled his life's lot grudgingly to face!

Summer Sun

Kids tucked in their beds
Moon peering from the backstage
Lingering longer
Taking in the Earth’s beauty
Summer sun leaves grudgingly

Sunset

Wan shades of carmine and carnelian Dying in a sunset’s languid demise The flame of pink, the smoke of lavender Grudgingly giving rise…to Final feeble glowing light of velvety purple Then to Ebon soot of night

Beauty

Beauty By: Tom Wright 2000 Beauty is skin deep and therefore, over time, grudgingly slips away. Ugliness, however, penetrates to the bone; and having the tenacity of a Pit Bull, appears doggedly locked on forever.

New Boy

NEW   BOY



New boy on the block
Walk home from bus
Driver hardly acknowledges my ticket
Beeps it condescendingly
I walk past the gated development 
Security guard gradually grudgingly
Learns to nod in my direction
Another six months and he smiles

I Grudgingly Planted Marigolds

my mother forced me into a garden when I was twelve
I did it grudgingly, prepared the soil, spread seeds
She forced me to water this ugly dirt nightly.
got crazy excited when green shoots appeared
marvelous ruffled, pungent yellow and orange marigold magic!
I do this every year now

Beautiful Fall

Beautiful Fall

Bold and 
Ever changing leaves grudgingly
Abandon their lofty stations
Until
Time
Ignites their
Fiery explosions of
Unbridled
Luminous hues

Floating, flapping on the wind, they
Alight the limitless
Landscape with palettes of lilting
Laughter

Impatient Winds

With my weary steps
my weary shadow
sways and staggers 
slowly,

   as impatient winds
   nudge me on and I
   must obey 
   grudgingly;

for now I must leave
this ancient vale in whose
deep, loamy bosom 
lie

   living memories
   of living yesteryears,
   loved ones for whom I 
   sigh.

Moonpath

Don’t hang your halo here
It isn’t safe
It will go dark
It won’t glow anymore
It won’t survive
I have become
The hungry destroyer
Af the light
So that we can all gallop
Into dreams
On Trojan horses
Through an illuminated path
Made by the large and ghastly
Demon-like moon
That so grudgingly
Assists us silently
Through the night 
The the other side of morning

Just Sayin'

I'm stayin' up too late again
but wanna say this to you, my friends:
Your presence to me has more value
than champagne soaked diamonds coated with all the tea in China
pixie dusted to oblivion's paradise paradoxically coated with
olive oil and sweat pheroming gruntingly
grudgingly
boisterously beautifully
to somewhere.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thank you.  Very much.

My Quietus

Having long ago gone past
The equinox, of my being
Now, it’s only atrophy 
In myself I’m seeing

Yet, I grudgingly march on
To the solstice in my life
A meeting with that grim
And hooded thing, with scythe

But, this journey to my destiny
At the end of perdition’s road
Is made, not with heavy heart
But with joy, from easing of the load

Certainty

Certainty

In 
our cultural cloudiness
we believe that there 
is no certainty..
When beliefs are raised
there are retorts of doubt..
Some reluctantly and
grudgingly admit that
their beliefs are carriers
of doubt..
So where do we go
to find a certainty
unencumbered..?
Perhaps all we need is
 an experience of blue sky 
standing in clarity behind
those clouds of belief...

Dazzling Day -Qd

Grudgingly, my eyes weaken their grip
Curtains rise up on a new morning
But no where’s my humble, grey front strip,
But Royal day with gems adorning.

Bright was the sun, yet it appeared not.
Stars shone in the day sky in all hues.
“These must be special fruit trees,” I thought,
“Each piece perfect, plump, nary a bruise.”

Grinning, He said, “Welcome to Heaven.”

Rain of Tears

Tears are dropping as I cry,
As I see red stars in the sky.
My cheeks become a bit dry.

Both my eyes frowned,
Just because I got stunned.
Inside me, pain pinned.  

Proud off, I lost my pride.
My tap has been spoiled inside;
Water is flushing loosely outside.

Regulation has gone grudgingly,
As my water is watering waste plants,
Causing more tears on my cheeks.

Gradually Grudgingly Giving In

Listen to poem:
Gradually Grudgingly Giving In
David J Walker

The cold holds no such 
Color so bold as winters bite
remembering so many a
Summer night
The warm leaving
Sweat so wet on 
The back of your neck
in the faded moonlight
that looked for all the same
In December 
until you factor in
the distant solstice sun and the 
Longer nights

The cold will hold on 
As long as it can 
Gradually 
	Grudgingly 
Giving in

A Special Smile

gardens supreme grudgingly hesitate,
almost opting to break the rules,
before sending lovenets to capture
choice glimmers of Shirley's smile

they would, most certainly, prefer
every spark, the full vibrancy,
but even for them it is not permitted
to interfere further with such a lovely dream;
this dearest testament of righteousness

but some brilliant mementos
they had to have
the stars would allow it,
they knew

Hamburger

Hungrier than a wolf pack hunkering down the hill

A lpha teen male footballers share microwaving  kill

Meat tonight they smell and enough to go around

Burgers make them happy and they munch with humming sounds

Under meat they peek to see if pickles thrill the palate

Grudgingly they toss the greens that try to pose as salad

Eating is a joy-- onion ketchup mustard gourmet  mess

Running down their faces is a combination guess.

What If

Days are like soap bubbles
Nights, like the freight train
rumbling through a ghost town

Of late,
My heart beats grudgingly,
Daily chore, a Sisyphean task
Writing is an ordeal 
the letters appear like ants
scrambling for bread crumbs,
A straight line ends up wavy
and out of place,
I walk with a pebble in my shoe,
And tagging along everywhere 
is a nagging fear…

What if?

Between the Lines

The daily start through the curtain shines
Grudgingly opens his sleepy eyes
The morning competes with heavy sighs
As thoughts lock in to the daily grind.

Another day, another try
another battle in his punished mind
Proleptic sighs imagines better times
And a different life from a different design.

He confronts the clash and all it’s crimes
A conscious decision to fight the good fight
The day ticks over and as time flys
He learned to live between the lines.

Perseverance and Trials

Consider it all joy
When encountered various trials
 You know testing of Faith  Produces perseverance
Let perseverance be perfect and complete

Lacking Nothing
If any lacks wisdom
Ask God who gives to all
Generously and grudgingly

He should ask in faith
Not doubting
One who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed like the wind
That person must not suppose he will receive any from the Lord

Since he is a man of two minds
Unstable in all his ways

The Situation

Feign dressed and superciliously arrayed 
Grudgingly part of this grotesque parade

Want to obliterate this consummation
Do not want to have a confrontation  

Breast fed by conformity 
Only digesting obscurity 

Need the God of my salvation
Rescue from sin and its degradation 

Thank you Lord for who you have provided
Pray we may never more be divided

What God above has blessed
Differs greatly from the rest

Bless now our Endeavour 
As we await the coming hour
