You Professed Your Love

You professed your love....

Sweet, like a rose in a 
blossoming spring,
Warm, like your chestnut eyes 
as you smile,
Entangled with promises,

...but not to me.

One Vow

A mind can love
  an atheist

But a soul must wed
  to God

Each troth professed
  by self possessed

One vow
  —to rise above

Lifestyle

Once there was a royal man called Peter Royle
Who professed “positive lifestyle” key for “the royal” 
“Because your lifestyle
Becomes your destiny”
Bloody it’s great to be “filthy modern” than “the royal”!

Premium Member DAILY GRATITUDE WHY WE ARE HERE

Today I’m grateful for knowing 
what native nation people have long professed

That each of us is put here in this time and place
to decide the future of humankind.

Did you think you were put here for something less?

Manna From Heaven

Thousands gathered unaware
Fish were sparse and rare
Seven loaves of bread to spare
Christ gently professed
Twelve baskets I’ve blessed
My children
Share!


Mark 6:41-44.

Wishing everyone a Happy and Blessed Easter!

The Kiss of Judas

Feeling the sting of his acidic lips
Judas sold his story to the highest bidder
To save himself
One more time
Crushing the wings of the angel
He professed to love
For one more day in the land of Oz
Eternally searching for his soul

Inside a Bottle

Stranded on the island
of your professed beliefs

Anchored in the promise
of a new tomorrow

Each wave a stark reminder
of the choices that you made

Your faith inside a bottle
—the tide unclear

(Haverford College: January, 2020)

Unanswered

I professed it all
my feelings and love for you
by the light of the moon
I cork the bottle
and toss it far out to sea
in the early morning
as I walk the beach
I find the bottle at my feet
my exposed love still
enclosed, intact
unaswered

Love Happened

Love came by
I shut my eye
He professed his care
But I did'nt dare
To believe in thee
What he felt for me
Then came dusk, then came dawn
Before I knew it, my heart was gone
Is this the grace of the Almighty
Or mere serendipity?
But I was in love, in love, in love.

Premium Member It Happened On a Rainy Night

Foggy mists engulfed the bright
When raindrops fell throughout the night
The lampposts glowed at midnight’s dark
When sweethearts kissed at Lover’s Park. 

Their lips gently touched, love professed
With each other, they were obsessed
Strolling in the park, hand in hand
Fervid kisses seared like a brand

The Passing of You

There will come a time when you have finally faded
Your guile, your poisoned tongue will have been traded
For peace and silence desired by those you've hurt
With scripture and professed prophecy you eagerly pervert
And when that time comes, great rejoicing will ensue
For we will be, oh! - so very much over you

white men
who professed superiority

Nelson Mandela de bunked them all

a little man in front of Fox news
laughs at the truth
spews illusions
who could possibly be
attracted
to such monsters of hate

Archie Bunkers still exist!

The Emperor's Tide

Mesmerized by his own success,
swimming naked and alone in the dark

Drowning in what he forever professed,
he rose and fell with each critic’s remark

Hypnotized while diving for fame,
he sank while caught in the tide 

His pleadings washed up, divested and bare,
exposed—with nowhere to hide

Premium Member It Worked

She threw his ashes away.
An impulsive act.
Unfortunately, I had suggested it.
As a joke.

She says it worked!
He is not haunting the house anymore.
He was her husband.
She professed to hate him.

I have one awful thought.
If she has regrets
or he finds out it was my suggestion, 
Will I be the next one that gets haunted?

Truth Still Asks

Were you at one with yourself
while writing it

Did the beginning
have an end

Did each word describe,
or then inflame

What light
can only bend

Did you gag
on meaning bundled

Were you trapped
behind its door

Were you—are you
self-professed

Does truth still ask
for more

His Bounteous Light

My pact with God transcends your fear
  and all professed religion

The faith I have, the joy I feel
  not subject to your laws

My relationship is one on one
  whose heart is freely given

To live inside his bounteous light
  —resplendent and in awe

Premium Member Would Be Best

would be best
if our actions and tongues
spoke the same language

would be best
if our actions our words
truly expressed

would be best
if our words honestly
professed

would be blessed
our personal lives
our politics
if all the lies
were aired
and addressed

Lightened by truth
before one's soul is weighed
and processed

Premium Member Walking Apology Makes Women Sigh

self professed failure
self confessed bailer
left when things got hard
disappeared 

bad guy he told many
self confidence?
I don’t have any

Walking apology 
Was this guy
When he arrived the women sigh

They want to save him
Rescue, turn him into
Someone rather fine.

They whine, cajole, lament and moan.
Trying to save this bad boy 
Every time.

Premium Member Catfished

His hair online
Looked divine, so
To dine, she went.

She’d been misled
And with dread, saw
His head was bald.

What a bad dish.
Her fond wish was
Catfish instead!


*catfished (a fairly new term for those who don't know of it)
Being deceived over facebook as the deceiver professed their romantic feelings to his/her victim, but isn't who they say they are.
