Short Implements Poems

Have a nice birthday, Eureca, 
These five words I want to express; 
My mind's essential idea 
Implements joy and happiness.

One can count the stones
But not the ripples…the
Echoes of one’s conduct

One can grab a sail 
But not the gale…wisdom on
Implements of life

One can admire flame
But cannot touch…an in-
Appropriate desire...

E-ach name implements quote;

E-mploy phrases of

A-re truly nice and creative; 
D-ecember twenty-first
D-ay is heavenly and
I-mpressive....

smoke mushrooms up and out
stubble, grass, weeds - cower
metamorphosis into clouds
bringing hope for rain
implements scratch the ground
to sow what could become
almost a saviour - but not really
thunderclaps herald
soothing moisture
for scars on the ground...

This year’s been great.
We’ve had much to consume,
 On our brain’s plate.
We may have made some,
Mistakes.
But we’ve learned from them,
 As well.
We overall have excelled.
We used our thinking
And writing implements.
Oh my what a good year this has been.

M-orbid mystery implements
Y-ucky spread and contagion; 
R-abid risk and vicious virus
A-pply invisible infection.

M-orbid mystery employs
O-nerous outbreak and menace; 
S-ilent snowball uses
T-errible threat of sickness.
O-bliterate the lethal
L-ink of jeopardy; 
E-liminate the dreaded danger, 
S-top the morbid mystery.

I stepped into a place of magic.
Implements, antique construction,
still used everyday.
Shiny interlopers keep away!
The trusty and pre-fabricated still hold sway.
Products of a bygone era,
polished and honed to precision,
manual labor, the road to perfection.



(Note: on visiting a farmhouse in Finland
          where many of the old-fashioned farm 
          implements are still used to this day.)...

G-lobal ordeal implements
L-ethal link of illness; 
E-erie epidemic employs
N-uisance of
N-astiness.

G-lobal ordeal traps mankind, 
A-pplying the terrible threat; 
R-isk of rabid infection includes
G-erms and bacteria from droplet.
A-n atrocity of alarming ailment
N-otoriously makes risk real; 
T-he mystery and silent spread
A-re truly a global ordeal.

A-trocious ailment applies
R-abid blue instead of pink; 
N-otorious nastiness employs
E-pidemic contact and
L-ink.

A-trocious ailment advances
G-erms, grimes, virus, and dirt; 
O-nerous outbreak operates
R-ight here on planet earth.
I-nvisible infection implements
L-ethal threat to attack patient; 
L-ockdown and quarantine
A-bate the atrocious ailment.

He was there recumbent like a log
Cancer has culminated,prevailing over him
Enfeebled all his shielding apparatuses
Yet spurned to frolic prolongation

Eschewed palliative care ministrations
He detected the vital prognosis was engaged
He had instead to plough money into God's certitude
For he realized HE implements nothing fortuitously 

Could he yet afford to acquit himself otherwise 
Engage in a battle lost right from the dawn ?...

These are the days of haunted, rented house
 
Of the technology of service
 
Of riding complete with ease
 
How the program shapes destiny
 
 
 
Still you must carry
 
The necessary implements
 
You never know what you may encounter
 
Down the road
 
You never know
 
Who may provide an answer
 
In the crazy mist of tumultuous days
 
 
 
A dull great man 
 
Bereft of calculus once told me
 
its better to have a corkscrew
 
Though always,
 
You should use a lighter...
