Our future horizon simply
    is overcoming memorized failures
        repairing  the past...

destructive despair 
calls in deluges of tear drops...
love’s sluice gate opens.

A lonely lady who was despairing
Was in need of some urgent repairing
So since she was alone
Plus no man on the phone
A bottle of wine made a good pairing...

Rolie Polie Olie rolled ‘round the room,
Repairing rickety robots with a boom.
With Zowie zipping,
And screws slipping,
The ruckus rattled the rosy red vacuum!...

home
comfortable, secure
loving, sharing, growing
anxiety, demands, cleaning, repairing
cooking, shopping, banking
expensive, exhausting
work

An ignorant duck breeder with a moat
Put off repairing his dingy to float
And he doesn’t yet know
Getting his ducks in a row
Means more than getting his ducks in a row-boat

Tears running down my face
You were a big waste
Of time.

Crying not sleeping
All I been doing
Is weeping

Not eating not caring
'Bout anything except 
Repairing 

What we had....

Do you ever act on impulse and regret it later
It's a common affliction among humans on life's elevator
Leads to a nasty result
A result not too adult
Requires much time and effort repairing your tater...

Pride, 
self-will
versing God's,
judging others,
double mindedness;
cracked porcelain vessels
appearing unmendable.
Repairing flaws with gold (His grace),
fills broken places while adding strength,
more beautiful for having been broken....

Repairing herself from
a long string of distrust. 
Opening her soul
to new beginnings with no disgust.

Done wondering, time for me.
Anyone gets in my way
I'll toss you in the sea. 

Steel body
Soft heart
It never turned cold
A miracle of a start....

Why are some,
so cruel with words,
do they not understand,
how deep they hurt.
Never giving thought,
how sharp their tongue,
and it's not easy,
repairing the damage done.
One day to answer,
maybe not to me,
but that day will come,
then you will see....

Peace is not being the superior beast
It is not about ending wars
It about helping those with least
And repairing the old scars.

Peace is not about being strong
Or say you got to live my way
It’s being able to say I was wrong
And living in total harmony...

ORCHID DREAM
Edward Clay
Jan 1991


Black Orchid at night silently screams
at the approaching day.
The spider hearing this cry pauses
In repairing its web.
While a caterpillar counting its feet
Marches away to its next meal.
My soul dreaming dark dreams
hears the orchids cry....

Love is needed here,
Souls need mending,
Hearts need repairing,
And I need support.

Love is needed here, 
For I call for passion of 
   a gentle kind,
So bring your love here,
A tender kiss is needed,
And soft arms to hold
   are called upon.

So come here,
Love is needed here....

Love requires first
Doing our part 
Repairing our heart
Happy Earth day 
Have your say
I must confess
This warmed my chest
A selfless act
A reason to react
Up from my chair 
To help repair
Unity stands
Hand in hand
Ready to remix
A happy fix
Positive change
God knows our names...

He is a mechanic
Repairing failed brakes
to help or to worsen
I know not

for many have fallen victims
in his act of mechanikism
the failed brake he repairs
but to second mission it

He wants it second missioned
but the result he reasons not
for life he thinks laughed
The car now bloody...

Lost.
So
lost. Lost
right here. Lost
without a guide or
map or path or leader to lead.

I
am
lost. So
left for good.
No one can save me
now. I am beyond repairing.

To
get
back to
the pathway
would be so close to
the impossible that I dare
not attempt to arrive alone. I need help....

Stars tumble from shattered edges
Charter in the sounds of daybreak
The other side of the planet

Leave this river after a few drinks
A man's teary eyes
Aiming for the bright lights of the metropolis

It can be seen in the distance
The crane let out a screech
Repairing the ripped sky

The week has gone now you can rest
Mowing the lawn picking up leaves
Painting the house repairing the sink
Fixing a fence or trimming a tree

Sunday is finally here a day of rest
An hour of church singing songs
Then fixing a leaking roof or gutter
Cleaning up the garage from clutter

Then back to work on Monday
Finally, five days of rest...

an old piano 
child size 
lays in the garbage heap
its body broken 
its innards hanging out
on the frame 
like the ribs of a skeleton broken into pieces
its ivory keys are separated and cover the ground
its poor, in bad condition and cheap
 to many not worth repairing 
for most purposes it is dead 
only to be remembered by few who knew and loved...

Hush,Hush. 
The world is gently sleeping
breathing in the fresh air
its repairing, rejuveating.
Recovering from the virus 
her temperature still rising.
And life support is still needed 
her  oxygen deplenished 
Yet mother nature is still weeping
in despair at human kind. 
Shes looking for a remedy
a cure for all her ailments
and we call it covid19....

Kintsugi —  means “join with gold” — is the Japanese art of repairing broken objects, often ceramic pottery or glass. Traditionally, gold lacquer is used to piece shards together again, creating a more beautiful object through the acts of breaking and repair.

Time was lost 
forgetting your name
repairing my heart
never the same

I cried and I wept
no peace in my dreams
the pain always found me
a lost cause it would seem

I finally moved on
forgetting the past
no I hear you have feelings
that you've found them at last

your nervous around me
not sure what to say
you're not sure what to tell me
you can't find the right way...

It's not going my way and I don't have the tact
To enter repairing negotiations for that I lack
So to get my way I'll invade a near neighbour
To satisfy my ego whilst watching wars labour

But now it appears it's not going as I thought
Their resiliance strong, street fighting sheer
To satisfy my ego whilst watching wars labour
I'll now threaten the world, deterrant Nuclear!
