A date rams gate tiny merry line ..., time to a ramble in a gait to date twelve times
twenty-four to half-past eight makes pivotal mime....

Finally

Prayerfully pondering His promises 
propelled me toward pivotal points  
in God's proposed purposes for me; 
to profess profound peace in Him....

pivotal moments
held with corners in old books
captured forever

photo treasures
go back in the days of old
memories unfold

family albums
ousted by technology
no more photos - sad...

a pivotal point
that crucial moment
when all is clear

the fog dissipates
like fine crystal
all is transparent

the lucidity is astounding
the awareness, sharp
the acoustics, deafening

a pivotal point
when I realize
the depth of it all...

I choose a tree because they add colour to the natural world and their pivotal environmental role.

Pivotal Point

Private a point that is pivotal,
In Army and will fill each bill;
Truly necessary and very vital;
Soldier, bravely bares the title;
So beans had to tell and spill.

EMBODY 

Recruit into the realm of spiritual liberty
Reawaken the knowledge there already 
Locked inside the triple helix
Hidden inside man’s genetics
The modified man

The name of the brand:
The accelerated humanity
On the pivotal brink of breakthrough or insanity...

Something is there called destiny,
Plays pivotal role although mini.
Everything can change in a second,
You never know about next moment my friend.
Good deals,we should serve,
In life,we receive what we deserve.
Sometimes we need to wait,
We get our fruits,early or late....

Death comes to all men 'til death's demise.
Death dances at each man's doorway
creating angst and/or appetite.
Death dances searching his partner's guise.
Mastering pivotal steps paves the way 
for nether worlds or a new birthright.
Death comes to all men until death's demise....

And with his attributes'
God offers' a threshold
For human stability
That our relationships'
With each other
And,
That respect and dignity
That which we bequest
Are the ultimate
In reformation
Where tolerance
Is the pivotal mild stone
For which,
Remittanaces' is a necessity

Owl With Crying Towel

You can always tell it was an ornery owl,
When you saw his face wearing a scowl;
We saw pivotal plot;
His claw got caught;
Trump appeared throwing in his crying towel.
(After having been relieving his fowl bowel.)

Of the millions
Of stars out there
Expanding,
Stretching time,
Described by numbers
That mesmerise-
Larger than the
Universal Container
Of all comprehension
And light-

Near one, are cares!

Of the billions
Of cares on there-
Nothing but Nothing
Compares, in a
Pivotal moment,
To a single one’s
Despair!...

Away behind clouds defying,even fighting gravity
heaven in juxtaposition
kites leaping merrily
now on pivotal quickening,reaching skyward
tailspinning upon very wide x's

Once each year
 
sailors spy a

mirage.

An nonverbal

alluring phantom

that favors

them with

a dulcet
 
delicate

mournful moan,

as consolation.

Marking a pivotal

wreck’s

anniversary.

Born of ignorant sod
King of kings, son of God
Halo crown of thorn
Pivotal pinnacles adorn

Crucifix dogwood tree
Suffer so dire malady
Forge rugged cross
Convey sanctioned loss

Purest blossoms white
Pristine petals alight
Tips in sanguine red
Pierced divine bloodshed

Father's grief enlisted
Boughs gravely twisted
Ne'er again use malice
Hardwood most callous

Space, immobile as the wind that never stirs
unless some pivotal calm inherits, serves,
I love you there, the being not unnerve!

Where silence walked beside, between embalm
of yesterday, our joy, our moment's psalm,
I love thee there, not in conventions alms.

I love thee, giving praise
when all else harms,
a necessary space, the self's alarm!

I love thee though alone
God's promised balm!...

Celebrity
a certain kind of individual 
who views his life as pivotal 
to his fans always residual
no matter how gory the visual
of violet red and blue
somber hues color his “boo”
or all those who misconstrue
his looks and dance moves as virtue
dare to unveil the wretched truth 
and time will only serve the news 
that tinsel town’s beloved muse 
could be just as screwed up as you.

Which nuance of shifting bliss hues defines
pivotal moment of rapture climax?
To which musical note may we assign
as cause of delight without parallax?
Wherefrom comes our will to ego urge axe,
even though fears and desires manifest?
How did kundalini rise to the crest,
with our consciousness anchored in bondage?
Lastly, the throb of bliss which does persist;
how does the love elixir, pain assuage?
