Heaven’s splendor
Outshines the sun…
At the end of the road,
Eternal life has already begun....

the fairest face....

in your eyes those lies do shine
truth outshines this light

There are many kinds of light in the world,
But my light outshines every one.
Even the full moon among the stars
Can only reflect me; I am the sun....

I have
But a trinket
A mere stone compared to you
As your radiance outshines it
And totally blinds me

Oasis, gem of dune
Outshines dreary desert.
Obscure mirage lost in 
Opulent tranquil trove,
Opens vista of vibe.
Octave of breeze pulsates	
On opalescent lake....

pretty daisy
crisp, clean, perky,
she outshines the sun
on this overcast day
her petals are unmoving windmills
her seeds sit up expectantly
I have a granddaughter named after her...

innocent gloriousness
outshines azure skies

the natural glow of unfeigned traits of the imperfect
outshines fake glittering pretence of the so-called perfect

Keeps our hope burning
As we take our future glimpse
It glows like a sun
Many things you understand
It outshines the things around

somber handsome Marlboro man on a painted stallion
a mirage has appeared in the dust bowl wearing chaps
his worn Stetson is pulled low,
he outshines the cover of a juicy romance novel
I do not know his name but he takes my breath away
he rides to the west...

Do not fret, doughy nymph
Your legacy shall not be shame!

While estroclones flash
And spite-serpents slither

Fleeting beauty cast
In fotofox mold

Fades out quickly
Exposing foul substrate…

The hope in your heart
Outshines the sadness

A gift meant to be shared...

The palms, the peas, the protea too
Showing up the lilies and iris ever blue.
The gourds and the daisies growing so fine.
Nothing outshines fungi which walks a clear cut line.
Tens of thousands of plant species
Growing more readily with help of feces.
From bulbs or seeds, makes no diff,
Cover the ground in a giant jiff....

Darkness overshadows the light.
Light outshines the darkness.
Darkness appears without light.
Light appears without darkness.
There is no Heaven.
Without Hell.
There is no Hell.
Without Heaven.
There are no Angels.
Without Demons.
There are no Demons.
Without Angels.
Everything needs everything.
Nothing needs nothing....

MY LOVE

The young lady who is my love
Is certainly a cut above

She outshines all other women
Next to her, they begin dimming

She is my joy and my great hope
Without her near me, I just mope

But when I have her on my arm
She is my lovely lucky charm

My love is as the summer's sky,
And gentle as the breeze.
My love knows exactly why
I can write of her with ease.

She's warm as a summer's sun,
Which her beauty outshines.
All natures beauty formed into one,
Of God's wonderous designs!

My beautiful help meet.
My best friend.
The reason for my heart beat,
And love to never end....

You who have a  faithful  love
One who brilliants outshines the stars 
A faithful love agape 
Gold monies monetary gains money 
No need can't by love with it
Just priceless 
I am a bird with feathered wings
Out stretch wings embraced 
God humanity  finds refuge 
In the shadow of your wings

So be it then, I’ll give you this
My life with you, outshines
It’s better now because of you
That fact that you are mine
No other life can so compare
Nor others days be fated
With so much love and happiness
For you, my life, I’ve waited
So destined then to be with you
No other choice to make
So, here’s my heart prepared for you
Reach it and just take...

Like a Black Tulip
Her distinctive dark skin
Outshines a host of angels
And her soft, lovely lips
Dressed up with sweet sweat
From her heroic tiredness
Cure my tormented heart
When they quiver
As the ‘I love you' words
Amble on her truthful tongue
And then slip
Incessantly into feelings
Feelings unquenchable 
Feelings indescribable
Feelings irresistible...

Falling from the sky
she appeared to have landed
right on my doorstep
allowing me the privilege
of knowing her,
of appreciating her,
of sharing with her.
Her gentle demeanor
shows the world her kindness
and her love
that forever outshines
the sun itself.
Her passionate side
even burns hotter than
the sun, as well.
She is an angel
going by 
the name of…
Love...

Mom you are the
world to me
You are my shining
star, the twinkle in
my heart
You make my world
brighter and more
wonderful
Your love outshines
the  brightest of
stars
Your generous and
loving heart
Not only shines for
me but for everyone
Your heart
encompasses the
earth. 
If I had to be
someone I want to be
someone like you

And I thank God that
He gave me you....

gorgeousness of the model outshines the dress
do not misinterpret my meaning please
the dress is an Anya Ayoung Chee, a worthy designer
created from gorgeous fabric, she has tremendous flow, excellent lines
young svelte model’s beauty surpasses this emerald, gold, silver gown
during fashion week, we reporters do not see the gown at all
completely upstaged by the African goddess wearing her...

The course of love that one embarks

In the heart a passion sparks

The journey long once begun

When two souls unite as one

Each moment in a state of bliss

A look, a touch, a gentle kiss

A bond so strong you can't undo

That happens to a lucky few

This rarity creates a light

That outshines every star at night

A simple love without a flaw

That leaves the rest of us in awe...

There is but one and only one
Who lights the stars
Outshines the sun
In all her days
On her great journeys
Embracing life
Day one by one
Such grace and poise
So much a lady
The Lord God dwells
Deep with her soul
Shine, shine angel of heaven
Angel of earth, of everyone
And when her Maker
Comes to call her
His favorite angel
To His breast
He’ll take care kindly
Kindly of her
And whisper now it’s time to rest...
