Shed the light upon
The world, as your flickering
Smile reflects your gleam…

For all those who draw optimism with 
their shimmering smile, accepting
destiny…...

Please shed some light
    O, luminous star
      on this puzzle for me

  You light the way for earthlings
    Can't you help fellow starlings
      born without wings...

I can’t accept not trying
Praying for an enigma
When things don’t go my way
On a distant river
Where moons did rise
And water did toil
Spirits didn’t shed their light
But people forgot their own words
Why does it challenge me so?...

I think I figured it out
after all this time
I've got a grip
on these feelings of mine
read some books
that hit the mark
I shed some light
on what was dark
I'll take what
you have for me
there's plenty of room
for what you bring...

Setting sun shed golden light
illuminating bursting bright,
with her was a powder pink
where auburn crowns the ochre sync.
Smokey clouds upon the range
natures beauty often strange,
above the mountains in the sky
bittersweetness passes by....

Quatrain #819:
TIME


Truth has a way to shed new light,
Ink words that say how time takes flight;
Meet play each day with love that shows,
Etch a calm sway as wit hurls bright.

(Tree speaks to thief)

They chopped off my upper limbs, to shed more light on the lower 

As they will amputate those hands, now your light fingers grow slower

       ( Star Gazing )

The night sky shines bright

As the stars shed their light.

Campfire crackles and smoke arises 

And cider boils over the fire.

As we explore the stars to our desire 

We look at the sky a little bit higher.

Beautiful, shed enough light unto you, afore I ever knew, and now, we both know....
Raised in a figurative cage, I am this somewhat, ruff act ? Twas made that way; just for you ?
Tell me, whom can deny this truth ? My entire life has been, crafted; for this very moment, in time....

    Other poets inspire me 
      to build on what they write
    Some might call it stealing
      But I only shed more light… 

    Adding to their poem’s grandeur
      is my sole intention
    Though it would be rather nice of me
      their name to just once mention

Some poets write Odes of Love,
While others sing of the white winged dove.

Roads not taken......sonnets of night;
We put pen to paper to shed some light,

On subjects such as loss and greed....
The words that flow fulfill our need.

For thoughts that run most all the time...
A poet's hand creates the rhyme....

Listen to poem:

Reaching deep
the corners
for cobwebs
in my brain
longing to visit
the dustbunnies
of my mind
spend some time
shed some light
and maybe water
the unkempt garden

POEM 1 THE LIGHT IS CHRIST 


OUR LORD JESUS WE HAVE WANDERED 

FAR AWAY. 

JESUS WAS BORN ON CHRISTMAS DAY 

FOR OUR SALVATION, 

GOD PROMISED WHEN CHRIST DIED 

HE WOULD MAKETH AWAY BACK TO GOD. 

GOD LET US KNOWN THAT THERE IS NO 

JOY IN SIN. 

GOD SHED HIS LIGHT UPON US AGAIN.

'Tis rumored that Nero was just fiddlin' aroun'

While Rome was ablaze consumin' the town!

Tho' the name of the tune he played ain't recorded in history,

And I reckon will ever remain a mystery,

May I propose for posterity and on this matter shed some light,

I suspect he played "There'll Be A Hot Time In The Old Town Tonight!"...

the water is risin
it's ten feet deep
the undertow sweeps
me off of my feet
throw me a line
and drag me in
the currents to swift
and I can't swim
throw me a line
and drag me in

lightning streaks
across my sky
thunder crashes
in the night
hope stays useless
on the other side
be my savior
shed some light
throw me line
and drag me in...

Dylan Thomas. Silvia Plath and Edgar Allen Poe     These are names      That we all know    Fought their demons     All their lifes     A pen in their hand     To give them advice     Does the pain go away     When the words are put down     In for a penny     In for a pound     Only their ghosts     Can shed the light     All the heartache     Was it worth the fight...

I'll be your soldier 
When the sun goes down
I'll be the one 
To keep you safe in this town

I'll give you my word 
No harm will come
Not til I'm gone
Not til I'm done

My word is my honor 
And my honors my life
To enemies I will send 
A deadly strike

So I beg for a chance
To shed some light on what you cant see
Juliet take this dare
One dance with me ....

Softly flowing into heaven 
 climbing up towards the sky 
 she's a symbol of pure joy 
 up she soars , nigh n' nigh 

 Pure abandon up she climbs 
 closer to that magic shrine 
 light as feather she will tether 
 til' the new born morning light 

 Pastel hues of beauty bright 
 truest angels of pure flight 
 bringing alms and joyful peace 
 til' the moon has shed her light ....

Adrift, asunder - the shore,
a vision only dreamt of
where the longing stares of sunsets
        linger and wish...
until, a million other suns
shed their light of yesterdays

~before I ever wept or loved~

I wonder, is our sun a lantern
     to be wished upon
on some planet light years away?
And, is it quite as warm as
lanterns on the harbor shore
    or the porch lamp's glow......

Many have written about memories and visions
 To eloquently present their thoughts and admissions,
 To rekindle reflections that were once stored
 Arranged and harmonized like a musical chord

Contemplating how and just what to write
Unfolding their feelings to shed some light,

Visions to contemplate
Ideas into thoughts
Thoughts into words
Words into meanings
Meanings into memories
Memories into visions 
Rekindle the past
Poetry waiting...

Stars happily twinkled in the heaven 
Moon peaked out from among the clouds
The clouds drifted by merrily without hurry
Playing a game of hide and seek
Moon was trying to look at the ground
Wondering where he should shed some light
Clouds were laughing gleefully as they sauntered by
Teasing moon was on the agenda
 while the stars ignored these tactics
Moon sighs for he was in for a long foolish night
Wished he could turn  out his light

Candlelight flickering waves on skin
shadows on tile in dance begin
artistic motion of lathered emotion
flame soft caressing the fuse of explosion

Lotioned bubbles being spread with care
glistening reflections we each to share
mirrored beauty of love to drip
humming sensations brought forth from lips

Meltdown will happen to candle before
these two lovers unremitting ignore
from tub to floor,to carpet to bed
candlelight flickers continue to shed........
