God is the helmsman of our ship

bliss mists effused is our worship

Yet I am in a thousand places.

I am me.
It is enough.

Oh magnificent rock towers/Over me up above/Past the sky and beyond/God is not even here/Figured he couldn't make it/This majestic rock stops all/Precedes what was before/Exceeds what will be...

Sensuous queen of hearts is so beautiful they said
Not at all stuck up, level inside her soul and head
She has a beauty that precedes her reputation
Made in heaven, she is a comely, sexy creation

Helping Hand of God

Surely safe is
                proceed ahead,
                 If the friendly hand
                   that precedes us
                    guard and protect us
                     omnipresently...!

Trapped in a Bubble

Hare trapped in a bubble,
Too pained by the capture;
Yet chews its last supper.
Even joy precedes pains—
    stop your stare,
    dare to help.
    Though I err,
    spare some love,
    wipe my tear.

Premium Member Evidence

A painter's presence precedes his palpable painting.
An author is apparent by his text's acquainting.
A builder's being's believed by his building's indicator.
Creation is consistent with an existent Creator.

Awoken

I am awoken,
By the idea of greatness.

I am unable,
To sleep until greatness comes.

The work that precedes,
Daunting is the path I chose.

I am most hungry,
With a competitive flame,
That won't waver in the wind.

Candy of the Sea

Candy of The Sea

When the Sea recedes
Golden sand precedes
A funny tableau is seen
After the ebbing green:
Nude, we find the task
On the sand to bask.
Caked on yellow sand(y)
We then look like candy!

Friendly Shadow

Certainly safe is
                  moving on ahead
                  If the shadow of
                  the helping hand
                  that precedes us,
                  guard and protect us
                  omnipresent.!

Premium Member The Little Love That Could

There's a love that won't be silenced
Though it doesn't say a word 
It sings into the universe 
Though its voice cannot be heard
Like the breaking of a sunrise
That precedes the dawning day
Like the memory of a sunset
That never goes away

O Jollywood Arise

As they bask in the glory of Hollywood
Those in India will speak of Bollywood
And oftentimes remember Tollywood
Which must have preceded Bollywood
And even Nigeria’s own Nollywood
Which precedes our own Jollywood
O Kenyan cinema arise!
O Jollywood arise!

Premium Member Love Has Forever Memory

Love cannot be destroyed
She comes in all shapes and sizes
She comes in smiles and in tears

You can hurt her, maim her, gouge her
But you cannot destroy her
Her memory is forever 

And she precedes you into death,
and back into a new circle of life

Halloween…coming…
Aping today’s politics:
No treats…just more tricks:- 
		
Offering false treats,
Evil candidates ape ghosts;
Tricking scared voters:-

I Hope This Puts Your Mind At Ease

I hope this puts your mind at Ease

Because there is a Breeze
Those Leaves will shed their Trees
Creating furniture for the Bee's

Now, Milk turn's to Cheese
Honey precedes Bee's

And in spite of that Breeze

Leaves grow new Tree's
I hope that puts your mind at Ease

Let Pain Speak

Allow the destruction.
Surrender to the hurt.
Loss will show no mercy.
Stripped down; raw form. Exposed.
Face contorts. Punctured chest.
Descent into abyss.
Demise precedes rebirth.

Wooed From Afar

Source of his princely uplift.
Of his mood's proud joy.
Whom, wave on wave, affectionate
Kisses one way blows!

Of this morn's beautifying.
And at springtime's height!
Of this renewed hope's, a new age
In the heart precedes.
Love's, what each gardener concedes
The loveliest glows.

Metaphysical Adultress

She wades in anoxic swamps
She feels with her heart
Her mind never still
Her soul torn apart

She craves understanding
She craves conversation
Her thirst for the dark things
Precedes her reputation

She is never sated
She is never stilled
The void in her heart
Crying out to be filled

Whispers of Sunrise

A cool whistling breeze precedes the first light
My curtains dance at the window filtering though the daylight
A sound of a distant cock crow and chirping birds
Are like protest against my guilty lazy bones still in bed
I breathe the innocence of a new day with a slow blink
I swim out of bed as I let the bygone and the past sinks

Flood

as in the days of Noah,
latter days' reign will dawn on earth
total shock for some

recalling the ancient flood
waving goodbye to the semblance of an ark
strangely reminiscent
tears enough to cover the earth
the earth quakes, trembling
at the hand of her Maker
a deluge of unimaginable terror
precedes His promise
