In measures of heart
we choose our fragility 
in fortresses of loving
by practical arrangements 
bottled up messages sink

The Fighter

Fighters,
Fight until the bitter end.
Don`t try to figure out some trend,
don`t freely enemies befriend,
Mixed messages must not send.

Mixed Messages

The Vicar of Penny-come-Quick
Decided he must call in sick
He gave his sermon
To Brother Herman
Who wrapped it up for Old Saint Nick

Premium Member I Can Only Hand It To You

Tapped messages go out direct
With phones it's an easy connect
Thoughts from a finger
In cyberspace linger
But touching's too much to expect

Comes the black of night
A weighted silence gently falls upon us
Stolen whispers among the stars

crossing limts, to ruin
                                        God's messages to mankind

Nature speaks in subtle poetry.
It can easily take your breath away.
Messages hide in plain sight.

Thought Clouds...

Strange how thoughts
evaporate like moisture
hover in the clouded masses
only to rain upon us continuously,
until we finally soak in the messages...

Premium Member Wound up tightly

I have reasons to worry
stubbornly I refuse to send mixed messages
~ a smile I might shatter

Pen Wielder

I am a pen-wielder
A word bender
Making sense
Off assumed nonsense
Passing timeless messages
With few words
Causing my pen with ease
To bleed my thoughts.

To record events for more than a few.
Cord with knotted string
Messages to bring
Future accounting for me and for you.

Imagine what a different world this could be
If more people understood…

Message in a bottle

Take my hand
don't let go
I know is hard
but I don't want to fall
what's in your head?
let me know
messages in a bottle
can travel the world.

Messages of Divine Nature

Welcome to rain
      that arrives fertile,
      welcome the sun
      that brings health...
      divine messages
      in different  natural
      forms... !

Premium Member Sound the alarm

Sometimes the messages are subtle.
Sometimes the cues are underground and silent.
Waiting may be too late.

Near De River Banks

those two blue eyes 
de two fruits of juicy nature 
with messages from angels 
unspoken messages 
of some innocent kids 
of dear dear nature
near de river banks!

Premium Member Beyond My View-

Granted beautiful heart;
When did the bleeding start;
Cryptic messages and grandeur;
Hopelessly beyond my view;
