Compromise On Aisle Three

I've been wondering
what's easier
Giving up?
Or giving in?
Because
I want to do a little of
both.
I need to weigh the cost
evaluate
Want to get my moneys worth
after all.
But wait,
it seems
Giving up
and giving in
are really the same
thing.
Looks like compromise 
is on sale this week.
Too good a deal to 
pass up
if you ask me.

Ripley’s 2021 - raven atop the burial of masks


12/29/2020

I.

Once upon a midnight dreary,
while I pondered weak and weary…
              Quoth the raven, “Nevermore.”

Edgar Allan Poe The Raven

II.

Robert Ripley would travel the world looking for oddities.
2020 was surely one he wouldn’t pass up.
The world came to the proverbial him, instead.

Stop For a Moment

God gave us the ability 
To experience, the delicate sides of this earth
But often, we don't allow ourselves 
To fully appreciate, what it's worth
Especially in the small things
With our human minds 
We emotionally blind ourselves
To things, we can see
We often pass up rainbows
A spring shower
A sunset, or even, just a smile
Don 't hurry. Don't worry
Stop For a Moment
And smell the roses

Invisible

She dances on a dark stage for a sold out crowd
Afraid someone might see her and leave her 
No one wants to be a part of the train wreck 
Just watch it as it happens or slowly pass up the wreckage Getting a good enough look to have something to talk about  Far enough away they won't be asked for help 
She stands in the middle of the street screaming into a pillow Everyone can see her but pass on by

I'Ve Lost You

Eventually you will forget me,
I’ll only be a mere thought.
One, way back in your head.
Unimportant, no use at all.
Only because I let us fall…
I said goodbye, not even giving a chance.
When you needed it most
All I said was goodbye.
You will never take me back, you’ll be taken by then. Still, you say you know you won’t.
But I know otherwise…
You’re too amazing to pass up, to walk right through.
But, I blew it… now
I’ve lost you.

Three Words

when you love someone
you should never hesitate to tell them
unafraid of hearing it back

love isn’t based on reciprocation 
but what is given

say it confidently
say it loud 
but don’t hold it in 
love is a strong feeling

holding it in can destroy you
but for what? because your scared?
be brave in the game of love
because you could pass up your soulmate 

due to fear
you could lose a lifetime of happiness.

so in conclusion, i love you

Bless You Lord

Bless you, Lord!
I favor you, the Most High!
With all my heart and soul’s praise,
Bless you, Lord!
Your scripture speaks - I return the favor!
Bless you, Lord!
Can you hear my heart beat,
my breathless praise,
my adoration for the King of kings.
I bless you, Lord!
Your benefits are great.
How vast your mercy and grace.
Mankind has no idea
what they pass up.
We look to the cursèd tree,
to the empty tomb.
How great you are.
Bless you, Lord!

Humble Farm House

In a field of red, purple, and white blooms Sits a beautiful farm house that’s built well All the windows are large, not one has gloom There’s a brick chimney, gorgeous, I can tell The old couple that lives inside won’t sell It’s their pride to live in this farm house Never would they pass up even the mouse The soil here is rich, lending the good crops The tractor can cause problems that will rouse Couple loves this place, even the dewdrops

Radio Music

Radio Music

I sense this music has a soulful touch;
A special purpose that only lyrics
Possess to enchant my inner being.
I oft pass up soft, soothing sleep late night
To marvel at the magic of some songs;
Tunes that draw me into deep moments of
Raw emotions that tease and test the kind
Of person—I am or wish I could be!
What else could one expect from a cosmos
Laden with such lyrics, music, and God?
