R-oaring big wild cat, 
J-aguar attacks the caiman, 
C-rocodile is dead.

March in with a slam 
Awakening from slumber 
Roaring with thunder 
Comes in fiercely like a lion 
Humbly leaves like a lame lamb

M ystic lady of the sea
 E nthralling sailors on the waves
 R oaring  waters  flowing deep
 M any sailors for you do crave
 A doring how you move through stormy seas
  I n  watery depths of mystery 
 D ancing on the waves so free
 S ea maidens swimming serenely...

Tough Times Don't Last
(But Tough People Do)
By: Miracle Man
1/18/2019

At this time of life,
Many things are obligatory.

Each day I feel as if,
I'm Oaring a Dory.

Most days I'm forced,
To embrace the mundane.

Endeavoring to escape,
Constant stress or pain.

B-e on watch everyday, 
R-oaring lion is on a hunt; 
E-nemy is the devil, 
N-ever he utters a grunt.

B-e on guard all the time, 
O-n the twenty-first of May; 
N-ever will the devil linger, 
G-o on to fight him all the way.
C-hoose the bright light, 
A-s you deny the gray; 
Y-ou must always be alert, be on watch everyday....

A soft and tender...

 Kiss by the nape of her neck;

             Indescribable...

Sensation that sends her heart

    Soaring to seventh heaven!

L-isten to the voice above, 
E-arly in the morning light; 
R-oaring devil is warned, 
M-ay fourth sets things
A-right.

G-od's voice is loud, 
A-s it is also clear; 
R-emain paying attention, 
C-all from Him, you must hear.
I-n this wild wicked world, abound in faith, hope, and love; 
A-llow not your ears to turn deaf, listen to the voice above....

Soaring through the snowy week in glamorous attire

King of the Alpine traversing ski empire

In-bounds, snowploughing towards the opening glades

Innards begin to weaken, dignity fades

Naked snow adorned with last night's feast

Green run renamed – "Innards off-Piste"

E xhilarated by a marquee of  bright horses,  
C arousel of my girlhood…I dance with your light!
S oaring, navigating a riot of a glossy parade;
T o revel in flights beyond star’s gateway
A s my heart thrills from arcade’s music…Oh,
S cenes from past summers replay this joy. I become
Y oung again… while dazzling evening washes over me!

Like a living idol, unheard of, or and unseen;
A goddess in South-Indian Temple.
Like a painting,
The Greek kings adorned their castle walls with
Or like a fairy in a wintery moony midnight
Waiting clandestinely, her monster lover.
Afar in a vale, after the dark woods,
Where’s abode of none
Amidst the horrendous hollows, and the ‘oaring winds,
Wild weeds, thorny bushes ,weathered rocks and fallen fir....

Oaring through the vast ocean of knowledge,  
Tiding through currents with courage,  
Diving deep to find pearls of wisdom,  
Guiding with a prism through the kingdom. 

Patience woven in each fabric,
Kindness poured in noble tactic.
Teachings unlock closed door, 
Musings reveal so much more. 

In the era of Google and AI,  
Information at the fingertips, oh my!  
A mentor is irreplaceable,  
Moulds futures, so impeccable.
