Tears of Pain

Unstoppable flow that ease this heart of mine
It lessens the weight that I carry
It helps my heart not be drowned of pain
It calms me then through snoozing

Brightness's Seen Clear In Shadow

under bright sun light 
                                      brightness's seen clear in shadow

The New Year

Another year offers itself
Like the smile spittling newborn
Gleaming with womb waste,
Ready or not,
The new year teeters through
Love and lessens,
Lament and force.

Some Good Measure

GOOD Hope top heavy
GOAD loses envy
GLAD all is just fine
CLAD encase gold shine
CLAW sharpens for game
FLAW lessens valued claim
FLOW down the river
GLOW a horn’s glimmer

Time

Time creates wounds
Time exposes old wounds
Time worsens wounds
Time can become a wound

Time reshapes wounds
Time lessens wounds
Time transforms wounds
Time can mend a wound

Current Events

Between
headland and
headland currents, strong, 
circle, swirl, 
swivel
and catapult
themselves around around.

Between 
headland and
headland the distance
never lessens
but
grows year 
by year leaving 
between them
cold 
steel
sea.

Envy

The green envy I lick from your ear
as the brocade chokes you-
take flight of a vengeful fear
The green lessens as moments
pass whirlwinds never lose their pace
as moments pass
You keep the brocade tight and
forget all else outside.
Consumed by green,
from that you are strictly forbidden.

Happening 78 Ear Candy

one
     by one
     this harmnic 
song depletes..
a
candle extinguished
the sound
              lessens..
notes
     take
          their
               leave..
a tear
      follows
         each tear
          of
             parting

inspired by Haydn's Farewell symphony clip

Emotions In Ink

Your eyes are not the 
only window to your soul. 
Words show so much more. 

Whether words of joy, 
words of wisdom or of pain. 
Emotions in ink. 

To see the whole you, 
in print, bared to the cruel world, 
takes a great courage. 

Healing of old wounds 
may not be possible, but 
it lessens the pain.

Mealtime

Lies and Love

Leaving lessens love
Lying ladies leave lastly
Lies linger lately


Mealtime

Minors mind manners
Mothers muffle most musings
Meals mingle morsels



Natural

Nomads never nest
Needing nothing normally
Nature nurses nil

Bad Romance

Insignificant, time.
Wasted, time.
Borrowed, time.
Hurried, time.

My time.
Your time.
No time is our time.

Our time lessens,
With each tick on the clock.
Not enough hours in the day,
For our eyes to set sight on the same thing.
In the same direction.
At each other,
In one moment.
In one time,
In our time.

Salve

I cover my wounds with a soothing salve
That lessens the pain in its testing path
But it will not take the wound away
For it may heal over to a scar in its way

You may rejoice in passing through
A trial in what it does to you
Heed not the trial as it is made
But what is learnt in each escapade.

The Bigot

Your words travel on the wind
Like a falling leaf in a storm
So  cruel so unkind
So off the mark and misinformed

The sharpness of your tongue
The venom in them eyes
Words so cruel they stung
The  hatred so poorly disguised

Was it the colour of my skin
The place of my birth 
 Or just your hatred within
That lessens  my worth

Peace Within

“When my pain is bleak
And relief is fleeing
My thoughts become weak
With recklessness”

“Agony brings infamy
To my heart of pain
And the peace of Christ
Excels my thought of rashness”

“And meds for coping
Lessens my sadness
Lower my woes
Of high distress”

“And peace from within
Derived from up high
Quiet my thoughts
Of suicide”

Candle Versus Man

Candle,
cylinder,
of wax,
with a thread,
end to end,
spread,
a break in middle,
limps the fiddle,
and reduces,
the candle,
to a riddle,
our lives,
are like candles,
soul threads them,
like handles,
a broken soul,
lessens the light,
and it would not be long,
before you break yourself,
to limit to unbroken thread,
and burn in parts to death.

Bird In Hand

Money for today
but not for tomorrow
Bees in the bonnet
cows in the barn

Poverty lessens
the weight of ambition
Our wishes and dreams
back burner to warm

Love for today
but not for tomorrow
Feelings with shelf lives
 spoiled by date

The moment usurps
each hour an orphan
Whose bird in the hand
—neither early nor late

Lies

Lies are like little excuses
We use once in awhile 
To pardon our errors
Or get ourselves out of trouble.

Lies are like a life saver
It buys you sometime
It relieves pressure lessens the pain
Gives you the opportunity to re-invent another. 

Lies if we are not careful
Can become an addiction
You may choose to ignore it
but lies is another form of personal entrapment.

On the Pier

I sit on the pier sad
Imagine I was sun
Solitary, no one
near it, shuns all.

tired evening sun lowers
sea embraces it slow
the salt lessens sun’s glow
it cools in dark.

night sings a lullaby
music plays on the tide
mermaids merrily glide
it must rise strong.

Diamond In The Rough

Life issues out many difficult trials For in each problem we face, lies a lesson In overcoming, we discover our smiles Accepting what can't change, our stress lessens We're born like a jagged diamond out of style Through storms and darkest nights, we search for heaven So let us embrace all of life's major strife Navigate through all the problems of our life

L Letter Link

Lavish lilac layers link lofty laurel lunar lanterns
 laissez-faire luxurious largesse lifts labouring lumberjack 
loop-de-loop  lilting Limerick levity lessens life’s load
laughter laden-lampoon, a little lacerating labyrinthine lip 
limelight lustrous leonine lithe lady launches lavender lace
lucid lissome leisurely land loper locket livid loom
Lopsided lounge lizard’s love-lies-bleeding loose leaf

Naked Truth

As you are stripped of all material possessions little by little...
As your masks crack and slip off one by one...
As your pride destruction lessens moment to moment...
As the ego priorities change person to person...
As you look in the mirror day by day...

Do you know who you are?
you are love,
you are beauty,
you are compassion,
you are peace,
you are joy,
you are happiness,
you are loved.

Shane

Losing you left a 
hole in my heart
 
like a void that
will never fill
 
you were taken 
from me so 
sudden never
giving me a Chance to say 
good bye
 
As time goes on
my sorrow lessens 
but never leaves me
 
I'm ever morning what
could have been 
but never was
 
I whisper your name to the
wind hoping you know
you'll always live on in my 
heart
 
Good bye my friend
until we meet again

Beckoning Light

When hurt, hearts cry.
Allowing pain to flow.
When the fount of hope runs dry.
Inner light ceases to glow.

The pain of yesterday,
lessens as time moves on.
As light fades away,
dimming until it is gone.

Without hope, forever the night.
Darkness consumes all.
No lighthouse's bekoning light
to hear the spirit's call.

When we wish, when we dream.
we dwell within the magic.
No hope, no heavenly gleam.
Life without is tragic.
