Our lives are a shadow passing
And everywhere nothing is lasting
Yet above it all… both near and far
God's love outlasts the stars

Forever
Galaxies reaching for infinity
Grains of sand that cannot be counted
Drops in the sea of immortality
Paths through the endless forest
Time a concept without foundation
Wonder at love that outlasts all.

I loved like a flame with no wind to fight,
still I flickered—just to feel alive.
He never stayed, but always lingered.
The echo outlasts the word.
I reach for what was never mine.
Even ghosts are warmer than silence.

white light, blessed bliss
one light, tepid kiss
although your eyes are the prize,
it's those ruby lips i'll miss
rapt 'round in rapture
my heart you capture
your visage, casts vast visions,
of which, outlasts my stature

I HAVE walked that selfsame path
To your door before.
For years I've left the roses there,
Budding as before.
While I watch them bend, into the wind,
Quick hot tears begin to flow.
Strange so bright your flame outlasts,
My heart that now grows cold.

Rhyme
A sentinel gathers a parliament
of stag, fox hare and a badger.
Birds perched on its broken limbs, quiver.
Relentless snowfall drapes its roots
like shroud.
It once held spring in its arms,
kept secrets in summer.
It laments"-I am leafless".
But they aren't here for refuge.
They are here because
some love outlasts seasons.

I wish for memories to be doomed of all pains
To forget our flaws and falls till this breath lasts
Dispiritedness over failures drains us of worthy attains
But to bounce back with gutsy force that in time outlasts
Taking pride over our modest joys amidst rattling winter blasts

Quintain (English)
Absolute apprehension applied around angst…
Feasting from focused feminine filtration…
Mastering magnificent masculine manifestation…
Balance both bonded building brilliant Buddha body…
Enlightened electric energy evades everyone…
Harmonious humanity has hovering happiness halos…
Omnipresent oneness outlasts original
Sin, souls soaking superconscious supremacy…

Alliteration
D epression arrests young and old alike;
E ntirely consuming with an ill strike.
P eace seemingly but a distant bygone.
R eality; Entrenched in battles far from won.
E motions blue and grey. World war three!
S elf-imprisonment; Lusting to be free.
S elf-esteem plumets; What sadness numbing!
I t's oft a punch one doesn't see coming.
O n rock bottom, one may choose to rise forth;
N o sadness outlasts souls will to live forth.

Rhyme
A locomotive crying out
As it hurtles down life’s tracks--
Sounds like soul to me;
Or the wind whispering
On every blade of grass
Dipping toes in every pond;
Or the diamond that we keep
In caves too dark and deep
For any intruder to excavate;
Or the sermons of the Reverend Al Green;
Or the Force that guides and heals;
Or the reason for existence…
The soul, that which outlasts all else,
Sounds like the sweetest steam engine
In a myriad web of rails.

Nothing you said to me best night
Outlasts the love of the Father
Temporary pleasures leads to a life of disaster.
A thing that I want to be part of my past.
This day I choose to move on. I have
Unshakable faith that I will
Remain strong. Yes, indeed I will. I have a
New way of thinking and no separations from the real love,
Of God. I feel really sorry for you. You’re
Neglecting the life that God gave the one that’s true.

Time has endless Patience
There from the start
There too, 'twill be, at the end
when all else departs
Time's a humbler of Empires
Outlasts them all
Watches monuments crumble
no matter how solid
no matter how tall
The glory that was Greece
The grandeur that was Rome
In Time's rear-view mirror now
Majesty become soil's loam
Time is dispassionate
It goes its own way --
Yet it's ours to utilize for the good
~ every moment, every day
