sun bleached porch swing creaks
             a crow scolds a calico

            bird seed turns to dust

Premium Member Angry Bird Scolds Me Good

she gives a great scolding
her angry trills give me chills
apparently we upset her when we peeked in the nest
her screeches make hair stand up on my neck

The Masked Parade

He paints a face for all to see,
Of grace and high morality.
He scolds the world for every sin,
While hiding all the rot within.
He loves the mask, he loves the lie ,
Until the mirror catches his eye.

His lovely wife is named Heaven
She scolds him seventy times seven
Yet, Big Joe just never really cared
In Heaven he lives happily, hearing impaired!

Unto Thee

To thee,YAHUAH,do i look.
Oh!,My God,i trust in you.
My foe scolds me,have them not,
Break them like chaff,even like hu-wars' knot.
On thee did my attention tarry,
Proove me and make me merry.

Mockery is by me,squeezing out my faith.
Deliver me O YAHUAH,before my faith's death.

House and Gardens

We leave our
jackets around the chairs
in spite of the 
formalility of the setting.
Well, the outsiders are,
as usual, absent.
There are no guests to
make the rooms into a
tasteful memory.
I know her jacket
and she knows mine. She
sometimes scolds me
but I take it with good grace.
I know she is not
mother.

Dedicated To All My Children

Dedicated To All My Children

Seven times have I been blessed,
Seven tiny cheeks caressed,
Seven babies clothed and fed,
Seven angels put to bed.

Seven children’s smiles and tears,
Seven times the scolds and cheers,
Seven lives to guide each day, 
Seven names when I kneel to pray, 
That Heaven will bless each one of these 
Seven personalities.

              faucets drip
                radiators rattle
              hinges creak
                dad’s in the saddle

              lights blink
                a/c blows
              stove’s aflame
                off mom goes

              shower’s cold
                 sister scolds 
               true shalom 
                 ~ happy home

Mother

I wake up in the morning, seeing her face
She wishes me good morning, full of grace
She talks to me in her lovely voice
And asks father to bring me toys
She makes the dishes I like to eat
Sometimes she scolds me but never beats
She supports me when I am right
During trouble she holds me tight
I never want to go far away from her 
Because she is my one and only mother.

The One Who Did It

His father’s brutality saw no limits
In skin burning days when Sun is blazing over head
He scolds and says “you’re the biggest failure of my life”

His father’s brutality saw no limits
In nights that are cold as the winter
He punished him for things he never did

His father’s brutality saw no limits
Made him believe he is the one in wrong
When it was father who stained the moon

Magdalena

Magdalena,
  your beauty known

Magdalena,
  your wisdom shown

Magdalena,
  firm and steadfast

Magdalena,
  communed repast

Magdalena,
  so loved a man

Magdalena,
  his blood in hand

Magdalena,
  though history scolds

Magdalena,
  your heart withholds

Magdalena,
  much more than friend

Magdalena,
  —the truth contends

Summer Afternoon

running around the house
and then she scolds you
for not sleeping in the
summer afternoon

i remember not wanting to sleep
that has always been the case
so she would tell me a scary story
to make me sleep silently in peace

that kid sometimes would sneak away
without disturbing his mother's sleep
and try to find something to do
but there's nothing only the silence of a summer afternoon

Her

A picture crept in,
Through all those memories,
Where I found myself ,
Besides my mother's knees,
When her brown hairs,
Gleamed red,
Fell on her shoulder,
Then dropped over my head.
When her hands fondled my forehead,
Stroked through my hairs,
When her words formed my babbles,
Her scolds,my care.
Backward, turn backward, O Time, in your flight,
And make me again her four year old child.

All Alone

HERE I AM
BORN ALONE, ALL TO GROW
IN A WORLD SO COLD
CLONED TOO BOLD
NOT SO OLD WITH ALL THAT I VE TOLD
UNENDING SCOLDS
...
HERE I AM
PLEADING WITH FATE
TO PLEASE THROW OPEN ITS GATES
AS THERE IS NO FRIEND TO TEND
MY BLEEDING WOUNDS TO END
ALL ALONE, BORN TO GROW
IN A WORLD FULL OF GROANS
REALLY HAVEN BEEN TOLD
BY WIND OF CHANGE
IN THIS CRAZY PLACE CALLED EARTH....:
AM HERE ALL ALONE.

Premium Member Endless Winter

ENDLESS WINTER

There’s a big to do
On the high Olympus Mount
He in charge of spring
Has wandered off    taken wing
And the wild snow piles higher

Zeus is so angry
God Winter rages uncheck’d
All is ice covered
Wife    Hera scolds day and night
Athena shivers    a fright

A search is begun
Have you seen spring anyone
And at last he’s found
Sleeping in some Shangri La
A land of eternal sun

No Time

Discovery eases many doors within,
It fills my thoughts with chagrin,
My heart beseeches reprieve,
From feelings I cannot believe,
I crave some essence of promotion,
Though my conscience lacks the notion,
That a greater occurrence could transpire,
I know you feel my relentless desire,
It scolds my chest,
With no rest,
I crave the taste,
See what we face,
Even if I had a dime,
We’d be left with no time.

Teacher

Teaching is the best profession 
A teacher teaches life
And hopes the best for our lives 
A teacher becomes a mother 
And a friend 
A teacher scolds
And cry’s behind her anger 
A teacher teaches to hold a pen 
And in future to lead 
A teacher teaches right and wrong 
So that we always take the right path 
A teacher would never forget you
Even though you may forget her 
She would always have a room 
For you in her heart.

Premium Member Darkest Silence

In shrilling silence, my moans of defiance subside;
Falling tears no one hears, drop and drop, midst my drear.
In all these years, I've never cried the way I've cried;
Each drop shatters the silence in echoes of past years.

No sun shines today; even the heavens mock my pain,
A bitter cold that scolds the lover, borne you away
And stole you back from those angels in their jealous vein.
Within his sepulcher, in darkest silence, my love will reign.

Burying a Hole

The Ass scolds the Crab 
that dug a large hole nearby,
worried that his reputation 
would be ruined thereby.


For when folks see that dark 
hollow there in the ground
with just the ass nearby 
and no one else around,


they'll rib each other with 
such a question so crass:
"What do you call that hole 
belonging to that ass?"


Indeed, when folks have picked 
their favorite point of view,
no blame-shifting or damage 
control can save you.

Magic Biscuit

It’s a Magic Biscuit
Tender, flaky
Round of course
Golden contours
Awaiting hungry, stretching lips

The Magic Biscuit
Answers many riddles
And asks a few, too…
“How will I taste?”
“Will my flavor and texture
please you?”
“Are you thankful for me?”

All to be revealed in due time
To those deemed worthy…
Both fawning supplicants
And flinty-eyed riddlers
Certainly welcome to apply

The Magic Biscuit
Provides, heals, teaches
Sometimes scolds…
Accepts


Behold the Magic Biscuit
Symbol of Hope
