Virtual school is no school at all.
Pretty much despised by one and all.
They don’t do this work,
Participation shirk.
Hope this is over by the end of fall....

If you can't tell the truth,
    then what is the use
    of us having a conversation?
    just talk to yourself
    and believe what you will
    and double your participation....

God listens and never interrupts
In audience participation god sucks
As the curtain falls
beyond the stage

For none a last encore...

Relish the thought it will include my participation
Still here for a while

Far away it should be instead
Of all the Joseph's looking for a manger
You are the one in great danger
As the guilt of sin plays on your mind
Participation will safe human kind....

Anticipation of Precipitation

Could be with contemplation and anticipation
We are becoming a portion of the participation
Of weather with rain,
Which was once in Spain;
Became pat of our planned precipitation.

Oh we ostriches, my fellow man.
They led us here and pointed saying this is sand.
Lest by chance a fool we hap to be.
The truth is plain for all to see.
Time to struggle and throw a fit.
Yuck phooey and out we spit.
Thats not sand its ________....

Happy faerie king will arrive
On the back of a purple butterfly
Possibly at four or at five
Said the herald’s lively cry

We waited in anticipation
And yes, he arrived on time
Ready to jump in to full participation
Quoting poems that have a clever rhyme...

Empty! No, protest nothing
silent! Yes, gives confusion in making
decision, reaction, collision and dying
empty presence fights something
sometimes to nature, communication in judging
documents with election, papers with inclusion,
life is participation and living is doing....

Oh, this opera of hatred
composed by men
who do not know the pain
of our forced participation!
The cresendos of our cries
and explosions of our lives
bring thunderous applause
and the victors stand up - 
with smiling high-fives they
congratulate each other 
on a superb performance....

puppy dog mushroom eyes
sniffing green grasses
royalty prancing in my purple ears
slide down my face, I invite you
relish your participation
leave a few cracks
streaks for others to follow
be playful and whimsical
invite your friends
light blue butterflies have discovered me
more later...

Advocates joining Bar Association 
Wisdom and wittiness marks good litigation
Years of experience deepen skills in profession
Execution of duty with sincere participation
Respectful to court but no fearful implication
Serving and protecting justice is main intention...

a spec of dust in
 the air a drop of moisture
 reciprocal  splash

winters renaissance
 drops froze participation
dust in frozen aire
~
snow flakes abundant
drops of iced rain droplets 
winters tears falling

The universe is a harmony
In which we all have a part.

You don’t need to know
What your part is.

You just need to believe in it:
Knowing that you belong.

Knowing the universe loves you
And wants your participation in its song.

Believe it, and you’ll be happy,
Believe it, and you’ll be free. 

Believe me....

It is with much sadness that after 10 fun
and enjoyable years I will be curtailing my participation
on Poetry Soup! It has become a way of life with me
but I find at 87 years of age my creativity is suffering
I will still be popping in now and then!
So I must say good-bye for now

Cheers Jack...

Hope has to be more than just an expectation;
Hope has to be more than just aspiration.
Bringing hope to the world requires imagination;
it requires participation, preparation, inspiration and, yes, perspiration.
It requires adaptation, collaboration, determination,
motivation and obligation.

Hope is an action....

             gentle affection
             softly in my direction
             no poetic deception 

             like a tasty confection
             he is participation
             and my emancipation 



        Dedication to a Beloved Friend
