March Madness

This "March of Madness" men make,

Mostly meant to Minimize Momentum,

Must mean our "Maker" made...

"Molecular Miscalculations!".....(DNA + OCD) = SOS

Santa Claus Sos

Santa Claus is busy in a Mall
But he will need YOUR help after all
To help meet his goal
Send one lump of coal
So Donald Trump can build his own wall

*SOS= "Save Our Sleigh"

God Allowed Time To Reach An End

God Allowed Time To Reach an End

God did allow time to reach an end;
His Son to earth again He shall send;
Make us whole;
Save our soul; (SOS)
Bring them back to heaven still intend.

Smoke Signals

tonight
my breath
trailing
in this air
rises amidst darkness
like little smoke signals
sending out an s.o.s.
i look up
towards
starless skies
wondering
if you were able
would you 
send one
back

Float

Pristine water skin
akin to the sky
caught up in the haze
of grey molten days
long dried by the sun

My feet pierce through
ripples, bubbles
sent SOS
to horizons

I smile
slipping in
water skin

No thoughts
Weightless

Float

My Q.E.D that I.R.L. Best medicine is L.O.L. Modern motto “K.I.S.S.” In Covid implies “S.O.S.” If P.D.A. then P.P.E. That is approved by C.D.C. Savvy Millennials’ M.O. Who cares?! Relax and chill! Y.O.L.O.! March 13, 2021

Dedicated To Barry and Peggy In Sos Titanic

Whistle... and I'll come to you...
Through the sea, across the land

And with my mittens, 
Warm your hand



[Inspired by reading "S.O.S. Titanic" by Eve Bunting. Read it to see.
This is dedicated to them, it is not a poem from me to anyone else.]

no title

       
like morse code ~
                     you read the rhythm of my breath
        
                            whispered my name ~
                   long before an SOS

       saved me
    sustained me
                  absorbed my emptiness

Dot Dot Dot Daughter

Yes

Fear not my daughter 

I am that blind lightning

And the deaf thunder

You can't hear and see

Rising over the distant event horizon

Signing out to you in morse 
flags and metaphor

Dot , Dot , Dot

Let That Ship Sail

Mayday! 
Mayday!
This heavy heart is drowning me
I'm distressed and in a panic
And so far away from shore

Call the coast guard! 
Send out an SOS!
I'm not equipped to say goodbye
In unchartered waters, you left me behind
Alone
To navigate your stormy seas

What Autumn Means To Me

cool crisp mornings sipping hot steaming cocoa
wrapped in layers of warm outter wear
a scarf wound round my neck as if a present
my breath puffs out my mouth as if sos in the wind
brilliant coloured leaves falling frantically on brown ragged out ground
autumns delight!

Sos

My mind can't function anymore or is it just me?
Is this an S.O.S. 'cause I can't see myself falling anymore.
We had our fun but we never laughed when it was just you and me.
I know how you feel but I'm always here so just take my hand and we'll just face whatever
comes our way.

Abandoned Sos

Mint green glass
bottled, filled 
Milky poison
your free will
Traveled oceans
bobbed on waves
A message though
no one it saves
Could have been filled
with a note to me
I could have saved you
out at sea
Instead you spat
your venom kiss
Mint green bottle
gone, dismissed.

Happy Anniversary

MY DEAR HUSBAND! The biggest fish you caught, my love, the day that I said ”YES”, The day when you, lone fisherman, sent me an “SOS”. And ever since you have been safely swimming with the shark, Survived in deep love to our anniversary benchmark! September 7, 2021

Sos of the Heart

SOS of unmeant needs
subliminal messages 
overtly stated 
meant to be 
strictly adhered to
by all who saw the 
emotional morse code 
a continues distress single 
set out for all to witness 
but only those who possessed 
the hearts secret decoder ring 
could decipher the message

Army Chef - Sergeant Schmo

Sergeant Schmo was chef in an Army mess.

   He excelled in concocting S.O.S.,

      But troops preferred M.R.E.s,

         They were very hard to please!

            Don't know what S.O.S. is?  Take a guess!

(P.S.:  Ask a veteran nearest you what S.O.S. is - the answer will astound you!)

Me Plus You

Me plus you equals forever love
Our love flies high like a dove
I show you love and kindness
And in return you call me your highness

Me minus you equals lonely nights
Without you I would lose my light
That shins sos bright
Right next to you I want to be seated
Then I'll know I am completed

Me plus you equals forever love

Old But Life

More and more my crown becomes heavier to lift
from tear-stained pillows
and through hard trials.
Nothing is new but death. (Farewell, Dr. Maya)
Nothing is old but life. (S.O.S.)
I will smile.
I will push.
I will dream.
And I won't ever stop
lifting my eyes to see hope
until I am out
with the old
and in
with the new. (snap your fingers somebody)

Sos

SOS I’m crying out
Can you hear me in the silence?
SOS I’m crying out
I can’t stand up to all this violence

‘Cause I washed upon a sandbar
Destination close and yet so far
I need a little help now
To get this ship back up to par

SOS I’m crying out
Will anybody save my lost soul?
SOS I’m crying out
In this harsh and cruel world, I’ve taken a toll

Quicksand

Like quick sand and her looks
Poetry is deep within;
Not until the SOS moment dawns
You realize how futile your exercises are.
With wanton mischief
I entered those innocuous looking waters...
After I stepped in, out of infatuation,
It stuck me, 
no use struggling
I submit to her ... still and silent
Any effort to the contrary
Would only multiply my misery.

Look At Me

I am 
A curious seahorse
Of copper and evergreen
Skittering past
Gaping jaws
Of a killer whale

An angry crawdad
Clicking my 
Castanet claws
At sandaled toes 
Gliding by

A scrambled message
On a cellular phone
With whirs and clicks
Baffling the receiver
But concealing an SOS

To look into my 
Stained glass eyes
Is to see the quiver
Of an empty heart.

Should Overcome Stress Sos

Should Overcome Stress SOS

Here is an example of Horn Haiku

Should overcome stress; (5)

In sermon this will address; (7)

While church would impress.  (5)

Jim Horn

Stress Stress To Impress

In sermon are things I must address;
Will overcome stress that you stress;
With God agree;
He set  me free;
Church goers hearing me did impress.
