When the tomb has regained its lovely dimness,
I made my heart a window,
And started to praise my murderer....

The wind howled
The mountain glowed
The sky roared
The heart thundered
The pelting rain
Washed the pain
The heart again
Joy regained...

In a pot above table
Suddenly falls brokenly.

However, saved by a man
Its beauty regained anew
Gifted to a lady love....

through decades of growth
capitulate all 
nevermore lose

  must learn to cry alone

Themselves regained through tears of pain
  —to mark their pathway home

emotional logic

Distinct, or one and the same

The mind seeks control,
the spirit rebels

In conflict—prescience regained

the stench of anger
extends into fuming words--
many hours wasted

until eyes meet gently
blinking, displaying--a smile
affection regained

There stood a lonely hill
browned and dead, still
the cloudy sky crowned
the lonely hill that frowned
at its own ugly looks
"There's hope"
So sighed it's gentle slope
Alas! The down came the rains
and thus its greens regained....

I'm retired now and I'm feeling pained,
My eyesight's gone off and my hair's not regained,
My wrinkles are deeper and I've got false teeth,
Surely to Betsy there'll be some relief,
But no, only today my remote control finger got sprained....

As her life turned to creamy sauce
The banks of her eyes
had already gathered moss
That's why, she never
seemed to be smiling,
and I felt completely at a loss, 
yet, I knew so well
beneath the layer of the moss
there was a layer of gloss...

"Taken, all is taken",she cried.
Assuming there was a theft I looked all around and
Kindly said that everything seemed in place.
"Everything that can be regained is not taken",Said she."Taken is
Nothing but the loss of dear ones close to your heart."...

New York's changed skyline
once created a vacuum,
regained spirit now
departed souls looking down
the eagle is flying high

Chemicalized pain
One somber voice did claim
Power was regained
Two hands from woe abstained
Three held to love again.

Soft, silent, and firm
God's voiced I lately learn
Touches without harm
It invites choice and calm
from consequence and storm.

Removing patches
I have regained strength to touch
     and reveal scarred heart;
Once wounded in the battle
     where I fought for love,
Now healed, my armor stronger;
     Shall my heart cries war
I must face the opponent,
and taste its sweet surrender...

One and the same
Is such a rhythmic name
And no game
One and the same
Make them feel regained
Where they became
One and the same
It is so substained
Which makes their hearts tame
One and the same
Time will tell
So they can exspell
One and the same
With their hearts to aim
With love to gain...
