Huge Sequoia Trees
Harboring birds in branches
Red Tail Hawk Looks down

Regal in our view
Keepers of the distant past

Time and time again.
Time starts,
Time stops,
Time spreads,
Time sprouts,
Time ticks,
Time tocks,
Clocks are the keepers of time.
Time is the keepers of us....

Keepers of the secret
Knowledge, powerful men
Kneel before the altar
Knowing their prayers are
Kisses on God’s lips. New
Kingdoms come and go like
Kestrels in search of food....

When I see a crowd on the street, noise and smell, 
Gnawing me the concern for this people: -
Is there enough room for them in the hell?
Is there enough oil, firewood, fire keepers?...

The moors seduced
The Sahara Desert Mountains
Mastered the Mediterranean Sea
Keepers of the flame
Custodian of Egyptian knowledge
Their horses made of moonlight
The world shall never be the same...

Light in part of keepers quarters
Then replaced with standing orders
Make wood replica no borders
Refurbished that year by docents
Seen by many sons and daughters
Near rocks washed by cold sea waters...

Went to the zoo today, saw a sign that read
“Do Not Feed The Animals” most animals dread
Getting skinnier by the day
Zoo keepers usually weigh
Not themselves ... the animals, you silly heads...

We are the soul-keepers, captured in this flesh
Daggers remain silent, inside this stiff corpse
We seek not of this unholy act
Then, where is thy God
Who shall answer my request
Let us weep for this untimely death...

Inside the keepers pantry
Spinoza can look into any lenses
Our lives have changed since then
as the chaff of wheats trail
Tells us truth is neigh
as it shimmers with the dust
as we guide our silent prayers
to Gods substantive creation....

Julia Ward free verse contest: Polly in politics

I'm Cynical of Polly

They say she's pretty, Polly,
even though she shits on the media,
content to repeat 
whatever her keepers teach for a bit of golden carrot.
Yes --
she's a real polly-tician!...

Inside the Keepers pantry
Jesus can stare at any mirror
Our lives have changed
likens the chaff of wheat 
The Lord is neigh
as truth wrestles amongst the shimmering trees
and we are guided by our missives
The green patterns of holly
roots our dreams...

They gather in cathedral clinics,
(with virtuoso grin)
scientists in robes of white.
Pretentious keepers of a new race,
their will shall be a will that mimics;
Manipulating the gene pool's base
in halls white-washed of sin,
not as God, but as God might......

Keepers
They say the mind that is consumed with fragility breeds insanity,
Do we not breed what we most seek?
Alas, we forget, the mind; an interchanging phenomenon,
Shrouded in darkness, we seek the light.
A blessing or a curse, we are the masters; the keepers.

My mom
called it,
her treasured keepsake,
of that, I remember.
A game
we played,
called finders keepers,
that too, I remember.
Though not
a game,
friends keep a secret,
times, I can't remember.
Game of
Life, those
friends ... keeping closer,
enemies ... remember....

Absent are our keepers for this moment.
We've only one ray of light.
We move through shadows of the past.
Riding through the ebb and flow harmony of our emotions
As they sail us away from the many lights there are.

What a city, full of lights and abundant love that
Glows now from the back of our ears....
