March On

Once a week, rain or shine.
School assembly marching time,
Shoulders back, tall or proud,
Marching music, totally loud.


Little Toy Soldiers

little toy soldiers all in a line,
they get knocked down one at a time.
but they march on, tiny and brave,
into the sunset, into their grave.

Biblical Poser

King Herod was such a big dummy
For armies must march on their tummy
Why would he crucify
A "FREE FOOD & WINE" guy
Who could make Army chow quite yummy?

Prepared To Plan For Being Panicky

Have Prepared for Being Panicky

We have prepared for being panicky,
About Trump and all of his insanity;
March on,
Until gone;
Having horrible effects on humanity.

March On

Simplicity rides,
Reflections whisper welcomes,
New terrains to voyage through,
Melted meadows chant
To the beat of hasty streams,
Beams of light dazzle the way.

The Dead Are Not Dead

rest beautiful soul take a rest
for yours is peace
the dead are not dead
beyond death live the dead
beyond the grave they march on
In a life full of spiritual vitality and power
rest then beautiful soul 
for yours is glory to come

the room

keyboard is gone and
i don't miss it,
much

cup is dry and
I look on
lovingly

ash tray is clean and
i feel the sweet
necessity of it

pages march on and
i have pangs of
pride

ink is splashed and
It is a joyful
jubilation

La Dee Da

“No Man Is An Island”
but that was before smart phones
To text and to tweet
technology’s drones 

With ear buds in place
these Stepford’s march on
Virtually connecting
— to what’s already gone

Surround Yourself With People

Surround yourself with people 
Who lift you up and promote the positive 
March on your path to greatness 
For you only have one life to live 
The time is now
Forge ahead and be a success
It is all in your mind
Continue to strive for excellence

Whither Thou Goest

Face mask now styles covers all smiles test our trials,
Naught offer chance for love's advance into romance,
Time found we spare with those we share and often care,
As time march on all lives withdrawn from dusk till dawn.

Season For All

its the fall
for foot ball
soon be march on queeens

for all to eat
and being willing thinks giving

as the world is torn
on this day it smoke of dust
water from the wall

SEASON FOR ALL

The Glory Ahead

The coast is clear
We can march on withour fear.

Many mighties have fallen
They yielded not the warning.

The road,full of horrors
That inflict pain all raws.

We hold out as a team
Fighting mosters, as they teem.

Seeing now the glory ahead
Our hope revived, once dead.

Good Over Evil

good over evil

hear the call of life

march on to humanity

let's do it together

when is not easy 

so be human again

March on to justice

it will swallow us if we are not brave 

so march up for 
good over evil

Clouds

Resting
Clouds above the
sea.  Trotting white horses
with white knights.  Make a white wall to 
Defend 

Defend!
Against the black
sea storm of Black horses 
And knights, who march on the white wall  
Slowly 
Surly 

I see
Clouds floating at
sea.  The sun out, a storm
coming.  But I believe in a 
Battle

Spell

The spell should break quickly now,
and all will become distant,
like birth....
in the throes of labor,
as the tentacle grip 
that has 
held me
in the clutches of this moving terrain,
releases,
void of memory,
and I march on,
Pilgrims torch in hand,
held high.....
greeting the sapphire sky.

Catholics and Protestants Unite !

Catholics and Protestants unite 
it's time to join the fight 
as we march on toward that light !
It's our job to question the mob ,
as we march on toward that light !
They think it's a game
to dish us the same,
it's our job to question the mob,
as we march on toward that light !

Premium Member I MARCH ON

With a life of hurt I MARCH ON.

With good times and bad I MARCH ON.

The battles I have lost I MARCH ON.

Wanting to give up I MARCH ON.

Given all I have to give I MARCH ON.

My body torn by unhappiness I MARCH ON.

When I am at my limit I MARCH ON.

I WILL FIGHT UNTIL THE END AND I WILL MARCH ON.

Premium Member Stifled Dreams

The life that's long brings to a man a change
Of those traditions then to modern thrill.
May journeys, that we're staid, now rearrange
To open thoughts and chance for a new skill.
Does work march on by rules of a new drill?

The World turns man like marbles in a jar,
And leaves him searching for a perfect star.

Amazon

You stand before me as once I stood,
An Amazon of womanhood.
I cradle memory of all that means,
But only now within my dreams.
I stand before you stooped and slow
Wondering here which path to go.
Gone the courage to choose a way
Without a thought of price to pay.
Cautious now, no weapons drawn,
I step aside as you march on.

God Must Return

Who am I without God
That I should stay
When He has left?

Who am I without God
That I should go
Without Him?

Am I not the dust
That man march on?
How then can I be a golden vessel
If He doesn't transform me?

They said they met God Here
But He just left.
If I am to stay,
Or go, or do anything,
Then God must return.

THE CLOCK
Tick, Tick, Tick,Tick
You count my life away.
No room to be sick
So little to time to play.
Bodiless face and hands
Attract my every gaze.
And determine all my plans.

Cold, hard cogs and gears
Grind mercilessly onward
Marking time year after year.
Only forward never backward.

You march on and on
In the end I will be gone.

Death March

Out in the thickets 
Time stands alone 
Limping around 
Minute by minute 
Not hearing a sound 

But a melodic siren within 
Off pitch and piercing 

Hold back the pain 
No longer 

March on it screams 
March on 

Let the beast devour my flesh 
And allow me to 
March on

My Quietus

Having long ago gone past
The equinox, of my being
Now, it’s only atrophy 
In myself I’m seeing

Yet, I grudgingly march on
To the solstice in my life
A meeting with that grim
And hooded thing, with scythe

But, this journey to my destiny
At the end of perdition’s road
Is made, not with heavy heart
But with joy, from easing of the load

Futilities In My Life

When your silence becomes heavy as old souls
I march on Gettysburg
	(There are many casualties)
As if shooting at snowflakes
	When the war is over
Will make the Winter go away.

When my own voice roars like cannon long & loud
I run to my garden
	(My enemies all were shadows)
As if digging up crocus
	To check for new growth
Will make the Spring return faster.

Another Five Miscellaneous Haiku

STORM 
thunder clashes 
a deluge of rain follows 
no birds tweeting 

MARCH ON 
the bugle’s first post 
soldiers on parade 
heavy footsteps 

CIVIL WAR 
guns in abundance 
the clock is ticking fast 
stalemate 

SUSPENSE 
atmospheric music 
there’s a muffled scream 
glass shattering 

SNOWSTORM 
heavy snow falling 
all quiet on the outside 
fire crackles
