A season awakes...

Pleasure in acorns muted fall

Antinomy begets conflict
Decision evokes freedom
Government heeds interest
Jest kills laziness
Ends and beginnings start and finish....

You who God molds
You who God knows
You who God sees
You who God gives
You who God trusts
You who God touches
You who God loves
You you you

Trust in your heart
To show the way
To end or start,
To live each day
With fun and wit
As shadows fall,
As pulse finds fit
As soul heeds call.

Inside a room
Of book-lined gloom
And loveless life:
He sits and reads
And never heeds
Friend or wife.

For he prefers 
Book characters
Who gradually
Begin to speak—
They walk—boards creak—
Fond company....

Soon it will be twenty nineteen
and i'm yet to pay my children's school fees
i have gone a borrowing
i have become a solitary beggar
and
not a single humankind left
that heeds my plea
i will cry to my creator
my everlasting city of refuge....

If I, the fly, upon the wall
were, all but none the wiser,
then I would spy the wicked weave of me, myself, the spider.
But neigh,'tis not. What caveat!
My prey heeds not, by nature.
For "something wicked this way comes",
an understated danger....

in fields of a breeze passed
a washing warmth that shall last
you place me beneath your toes
and I find comfort in these lows

in the trees of shadows and shade
the whispering bark heeds me to evade
the release of faith and rapture
concealed in your capture...

Over multi raven weighted wire,
the azure sky laced with cotton attire,
shielding earth from orb of exploding fire,
slowly donned her darker dress.

Oh that gorgeous brazen flirt,
slow dancing above earth’s dirt,
watching me bask within my hurt,
heeds not my pithy request....

The heart, which is wiser,
Heeds no mind’s inclination
When impressions
Must be first
To be given consideration
Before they are weighed
And valued for application,
Else, shadows of thought
Cast over an imposition,
Deeper than reason
Penetrating imagination….

Noise forfeits poise
Charm mellows voice


Look deeper then
Time transform when


Poise wears stern choice
Voice anchors noise


Then heeds sure proof
When transacts truth


Start with noise lack
Silence now stacks

Ego begs, craving for more time
Wishing to dream awhile
Problem is, heart heeds not love’s chime
No longer does it smile

With mindfulness recall
The divine bliss beat call
This moment is the all

Life force ebbs
Ego begs

Together alone in the mist of dawns early light
They watch the rising sun lift the veil of night
As though a hand sweeping back the shadows to 
Reveal the world newly bathed in light
Here looking out over the sea two lives touch 
only the soul hears the plea for love, and the heart heeds the call...

Thus do you know
The way of flow,
Just how things grow
With what you know.


A psalm of quest
Now prompts the best,
Cheer heeds fond fest
To humour jest.


Here day and night
Offer deep flight,
Sure cause gives sight
To put things right.

Poet Jelsr

When can I write, those words to be found
And how can I, read those thoughts unbound
So driven, forgotten verse, severed smitten
Poet Jelsr totally committed in all is written
Those words some may care to read
Other words no one heeds

The Queen of  Spiders
The Queen of spiders watches him
While her every whim he heeds
He thinks that she is what he wants
What he gets is more than he needs

The mating ritual will end tonight
Anticipation of each little one
Cut short when she bites off his head
The Black Widows task has now been done!...

Poise puzzle prose
Rapture's red rose


Don dazzling daze
Crowd cautious craze


Laughter leaps loud
Purge petty proud


Signal spreads sign
Meet matching mind


Prompt play pickles
Spread sharp sickle


New notes niche now
Hindsight heeds how

Light infracts the cadence of wistful needs
Beneath the belfry where silence never heeds
Lay me down amongst the rose that weeps
For the divinity of dust and breathless gold

Place the twilight of fiction into a vase
Piety protects it with veiled lace
Sequenced in a rainbow face
Diluted.  Complacent.  Dreary.  Bold....

Infallible one born among the weeds
He heeds the call arrested
Some declare another one the clarion
Yet one within attests to truth forever

Time for tares to dominate a conversation
Truth the test evades the seed hopper
Time the tool for cultivating iterations
Long in passing, short in eternity...
