Dark blue
Echoes 
Persistently 
Repeatedly and 
Encroach m
Sadly and 
Sordidly 
Inside the forbidden
Only to make me
Never what to return again

Decay

Seems as

A process of

Dying..

Life appears

That way..

Persistently..

Yet decay is

Simultaneously

Life and death..

Suggesting

The absence 

Of both......

Love lusts longingly
Hate hurts heartily
Marriage mars mercilessly
Wife whines woefully
Husband hustles habitually
Sex sells shamelessly
Politician preys persistently
Priest panders pompously
Cash corrupts completely
War wrecks wantonly....

If you ever wish, my beloved brother,

The residence of heavenly bliss to reach

You have only to follow the path of love

That our Lord, persistently, tries us to teach!

Demons whispers
Eroding sanity
Persistently questioning
Relations history
Ever present
Silently absorbing
Suffering alone
Idyllic fantasy
Oppressing reality
None can
Know misery
I feel
Laughter masks
Losers surprise
Sorry end...

There was a young woman who stayed persistently unemployed
Not having a job, or any work, made her feel overjoyed
Drawing her fine government check
To complainers, said “What the heck!”
Which made those working around her considerably annoyed.

A Disciple puts'
           His 
Attributes' into action
     And his things'
Into a power of commission'
       But, a
Missing disciple
    A plain man
Of God persistently
Turn's to a life of omission
      And turn things' too
           And FRO

I hate that bloody clock!
Disturbing my equilibrium
Persistently whispering
Gorgeous sleep lost

Sometimes it's infernal tick
Is a sweet melody
But not right now
It's more than bothering me

I just want to sleep
Ratty as Hell
I know it's not likely
Sighs 'oh well!'...

"The mimicry of music is dance"

“Instrumental music persistently always refers to time, makes comparison with time or
makes reference with or to time”

“To musicians letters become musical notes and words musical sounds”

"To musicians sounds become templates"...

Endeavours often hovers in my thoughts 
Only for detours to persistently intrude
My mind, suspending my unexpressed
Frame of mind on a itinerary’s facade.

At a crossroads which way to reverse it’s
Directions, to turn and make a u-turn
On this avenue of distractions....

Sky lit with fire
lights in my  heart, a desire
I match my attire

Sky full of grey clouds
Worst fears persistently hound
Desires know no bounds

Desires go taller
Along with the fall colour
Sky the reflector

My earthly eyes, why do you persistently prevent 
      
My probing mind, the real essence of things to find
     
By
 
Focusing on materiality’s ever changing phenomena,

Obscuring thus Truth and risk my soul’s eyes to blind?

Whenever she nudges
She hauls agony
Endows endless happiness

Pulling others' sadness
Bracing tonnes of secrets
She often grins

Every now and then
Enduring rain and sun
She dances blissfully
 
Embracing people
Being livelihood for many
She persistently works
Never takes rest...

A disciple put's 
       His attributes'
Into action and
    His thing's
Into a power 
          - Of -
      Commission
           But, 
A missing disciple,
A plain man before God,
Persistently turn's to a life
                  Of omission
       And turn's things'
            To and fro

Lenient light beings
Persistently beside one
Aware and secure

Acquaint themselves once
Nevermore in physical
But still their warmth counts

Coeval as I am
Complexities become plain
Chosen among few

Descend with desire
Defy death a countless times
Illumine spirit

Linger up below
Feeling within and beyond
Omnipresent glow...

Olive wore a wedding dress of lilac voile

Her groom gave a beaming smile
When she glided down the aisle

Peter persistently proposed… Peter’s patience prevailed!

Hauntingly explicit, plighted
  in yesterday's cloaked mystery,
wafting as whispers through
 wistfully grayed memories on dimly 
          recalled moonlit indulgences,
winding imprecise hazy endings
    beyond darkly covert horizons

 love isn't blind, it's persistently unsighted 
                by distantly echoed adrift endings...

Poets pen Personifications, Pantoums, plus Prose
 Providing prepositions, present participles prettily pose
 Patiently presenting parodies
 Portraying powerful persuasive possibilities
 Painting pictures poetically 
 Persistently pursuing perfect phrases
 Perfectly pleased postin poems

A good education,

Is the one that patiently, tenderly, but persistently plows one's mind 

As to prepare it to receive the seeds of virtue, justice, and truth

Which, with the passing of time, will grow into trees of knowledge that 

The taste of their fruits would exalt Man and glorify the divine!
