Short Implored Poems

his eyes implored for some warmth and laughter
the stench he carried around
told another story

THE WISE



On his knees the wise
The divine implored
Not
Immortality him to grand
For
Unbearable he found
Witnessing eternally 
The suffering of Man!

You see a wall,
where I see a door

You are imprisoned,
I am implored

You spend your fortune
on relics that burn

I, but a beggar
—last verse heaven earned

The wise man

On his knees the divine implored

Not to grant him immortality

For

Unbearable he found

To witness eternally the suffering

Of Man!

Once there was a parson named Ezra Heap

   Whose Sunday sermons were profoundly deep

      The louder Ezra implored

         The more his congregants snored

            He could never arouse them from their sleep...

Mother, father
Sister, brother
Screaming, fighting
Yelling, biting

My pain is ignored
My tears aren't implored
My life is a loss
No one is my boss

I stay in my place
Not wanting to face
The fantasy I've known
Just to be left alone...

The mighty Time, I once implored

More hours to each day to add

For 

I wish myriads of minutes to enjoy

Holding you in my arms, my love!

Happy National Holiday Day to my American friends....

a neighbor’s water hose sent
a roaring rapid down the sidewalk curb

our popsicle sticks navigated
through the rocks and raging current

street lights with ominous hue
implored our curfew

we ambled along cheering
those popsicle sticks on
far, far, far into the night...

Living with Hope

Gracious companion - colleague and guest;
 Sent in a new light - in darkness implored;
Troubles and toils given their rest;
 Sunlight and sight tint optimism restored.

Nearing river’s edge;
My thoughts began to wander,
	As brooding clouds formed --
       In a once indigo sky, 
           There the hunter stood…
Yes, the archer and his hounds
	Readying his bow
He implored twins Gemini
“Chase the bull ‘cross Milky Way“…

She was on the road
When they allure,
Seeing her alone

They were four
She tried to ignore,as they felt bore
She warn,i m not whore

Then,she implored
But they shut the door 
Said once more

She lied on the floor 
Yelling for help
They were as drunk as a lord
At the end ...she had to pulled the cord....

Hope

Reverberates and resonates in all of life’s quests;
 Showing – illuminating - a path unexplored;
Gracious companion, colleague and guest;
 Sent in a new light - in darkness implored;
Troubles and toils given their rest;
 Sunlight and sight tint optimism restored

With tears in my eyes, 

The wise man I implored, to tell me why

So much evil in the world 

Existed,

“Alas, 

into the dark chambers of your heart, 

the answer you will find.” 

Replied he, with a sigh!

Shelly had been talked into marrying this guy.
He had money and would take care of her.
She got more nervous as the big day came near.
Money is not love, money is only, well, money.

Her parents kept reiterating how marvelous this wedding was.
They had dollar signs in their eyes which implored her to run.
Shelly excused herself to go to the bathroom.
She never said which bathroom....

Now is the time
To run away to a far away place
Where I never knew 
Her or who She is
And the final cut will tell
It's not on me
But across her neck
She's brought me to Hell and back
I pathetically pleaded
Implored, beseeched, and begged
Now it's her turn
For her life she cries
And for her sins I'll die
I've run away 
To a far away place
Where Ill never feel
And He welcomes me with open arms...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanksgiving Joy Ride

Thanksgiving turkey bought at the store
Wow! Twenty-five pounds - maybe more!
Ran out of stuffing
There's no overstuffing!
Pleas for open market implored.

Fully stuffed turkey seen through oven door
Ready to carve - aromas galore!
Platter gets tipped!
Turkey gets flipped!
Bird takes a joy ride on the floor....

Violence

Lives on
With rapid-fire multipliers in
The tales of two cities which are
Now in our frightening focus..
As divisiveness thrives
In a numbing atmosphere
Plurality declares independence
Here and then there and then often.. 
We are exploring dark extremities 
No longer serving as creative
Expressions of our Whole..
Recognition of our veering
Means of expressing ourselves
Is sharply implored......

Homeless
When the father's heart ceased to beat
From despair Mom could not retreat
Family's savings quickly deplete
A barren table, naught to eat
Soon no carpet ‘neath children’s feet
And every stranger on the street
Is implored their needs to meet
Some walk past, fail to greet
Others stop and offer treats
A bit of meat, a shred of wheat
To those who linger on the streets
Homeless


For Brian's challenge...

I said, ' Oh how I hurt'
He said   ' Nothing'
I said ' I am in so much pain'
He said   ' Nothing

I cried ' I can't stand any more
Please,   I  implored
Please help me lord
But  still,  Nothing

I said, 'I 've lost my child
It's just not fair
Lord ,where are you
Dont you care

Then he said


I lost mine too
I cried  just like you
And no i'ts not fair
But yes 'I do care

I said 'lord  I still hurt
He said,    
So do I....

On my knees, 

Mighty life I implored with all the force of my soul

For 

To reveal to me its so many wondrous mysteries! 



"Alas, 

No mortal would ever be allowed all of my mysteries to know,

until the moment ready is he to enter the dominion of Hades*." 

Life enigmatically replied.

I stood in fields of rain...
arms hurled with drench...

The cold my heart defended
with a symphony of storm...
at my back...

the time...the dark rose fast...
immersed in cloud debris..

My soul implored - lay rendered...

Generations of warriors stood still...
lightening - found settlement in rise...

shoulder to shoulder with pride...

battle fields once besieged...
torment scarred the bereaved...

a shield lay neath soaked feet...

unclaimed medals left retreat....

The day I died
with tear I wept 
feeling pain on my each step
an irrational fear going at real depth
of my heart and my mind
oh god! I cried
the day I died.
A rue spirit in my voice
I cried once or twice
tears ran down my cheeks
I felt helpless and lost
didn‘t knew where to seek
the day I died.
I implored to mighty
to yield some relief, please.
No sign came upon
I waited from dusk till dawn
and when bright sun arose
I permit my eyes to close
That day I died....

Story

It's not about glory. 
It's not about fame.
It's not about the game. 
It's about the story. 

Everyone wants something to blame. 
We don't examine ourselves.
We do what we can to walk off our shame,
then we put someone else's back on our shelves. 

To judge within is always hard. 
Don't ever let down your guard.
Revive a heart that's been badly beaten, 
broken and scarred. 

The very places you have implored 
are the hidden home of your wonderful reward....

A member of the cast
Of "Hamilton," addressing Pence,
Implored him to do right by all,
On both sides of the fence.

With knowledge of how he believes,
It made a lot of sense
Although, from some reactions,
Seems the Veep-elect was tense.

Advice to other bigwigs
In Trump's inner circle, hence -
When in New York, prepare yourselves
For cries of recompense.

P.S. The only bone here,
And of course I need to pick it,
Is how, to "Hamilton" was Pence
Allowed to snag a ticket!...
