S
“S” 
by Lanier Thomas

So,
Seeing
Successful
Salubrious
Senators sitting
Supposedly serving
Silently subordinate
Society, so sickening
Stomachs, several sundry sullen
Students spurned supporting such senators....

Eagle
Eagle
by Lanier Thomas

Safely soaring above the sky
The eagle continues to fly.
On stately wings that glide on air
Like drifting dreams without despair.
Onward over the horizon it goes
And calls us to follow its repose.

Illuminated
Evening about you reminds me of the Sun
You are light and diaphenous warm and sultry
Like a thousand summer solstice or alchemists spells
You are as bright as Venus the morning star
I would like to bathe in your sunny afternoon's

The Valley
The Valley
by Lanier Thomas

One
by one
I saw them
leave because they
Were hurting too much
For them to wish to stay
Yet I found God was willing
To dispense His mercy and love
While carrying me through the valley
Guarding and healing me with gentle glove.

Saline
She weeps
carelessly spilling more and more tears
I have caused this tsunamis
there is no word to comfort her
Instinctively, we warm each tear in the palms of our hands
carefully listening to what they each said
Just in case we forget how to speak

Understanding
Understanding
by Lanier Thomas

Sitting by the campfire
Under the burning stars
I think of what my life
Has brought to me in scars.
I suddenly realize
In the flickering glow
These have brought true delight
And it was only thus
My soul was made aright
And I am what I am.

There's A Monster Watching TV With Me!
There’s a Monster Watching TV With Me!
by Lanier Thomas

I know there is a monster watching over my shoulder.
I wouldn’t think that if I were only a bit older.
I feel it whenever I watch cartoons on my TV.
I think it enjoys each and every one as much as me.
I’ve never seen the monster, at least I do not think so.
When I do look I see my old black striped tabby cat, though.
As I get older I won’t have this weird situation.
Mom says I will outgrow my wild imagination....
