Premium Member Minimal pomp and circumstance

lily of the valley
divine cluster of bells
charisma on a stem
its perfume awakens nature
and announces spring's
long awaited homecoming

Premium Member Pomp and Pageantry

I remember the grand parades
  Memorial and Independence Day
All their pomp and pageantry
  Many faded jeans ago, so far away

Our boys in uniform we'd be saluting
  For the good ole USA we'd be rooting
Now it's political rancor at barbeques
  ~ From either end we're tooting

By the Pomp

Lets get personal
the people portrayed
in the verse
are real
but the actors are imaginary
The words i uttered
to my bride to be 
as embarrassed by the pomp
she floated towards me
You smell
and before the frown had crowned
Beautiful
and in that single smile
happiness was born

Happy Earth Day, PS...


How the majestic spectacle of Nature is revealed
At the end of a dull and gloomy day
When the bullying, storm-foreboding clouds give way
And allow the struggling, setting sun to gild, and flush,
And glorify this tiny expanse of rocks and shrubbery
With an awesome pomp and circumstance of color,
And cast a mesmerizing spell that holds the eye,
And caresses and stirs the spirit like martial music.

No Pomp and No Circumstance

You are my guru my confidant my long lost friend
come to me now before you’re put to an end - Silence

You are an out law invaded upon by every conceivable means
marked for smuggling in peace and quiet behind the scenes - Silence 

You are removing blinders and showing clearly the light of day 
a safe stealth vessel keeping the propaganda pigs at bay - Silence

You are an imagined allegoric can opener exposing my soul
slicing through the polluted facade of my Tin Man role – Silence
