aqueduct bridge and path spies
an old stone church in the clouds
with her forested steeple
— gilt-raptured windows

The favour of God is for sale!
From tomb to steeple
Purchased by people
Seeking status beyond the pale...

Nick was good at the steeple chase
he thought of himself as an ace.
But he became too proud
and in front of a crowd
fell forlornly flat on his face....

It's not her style to walk down the aisle.  
Father and parson its sure to rile.  
But all of the people 
down under the steeple 
will smile at her elegant abseil.

steeple hands
piano voices
stand up, kneel down
confession box
anointing with oil - at door
sign of the cross and a crooked knee
chewing gum
ruffling papers

one tear-stained face

Pleasant People

To encourage others we always do prefer;
And with God will agree with and concur;
Meet pleasant people,
Under church steeple;
With God's energy we are sure to endure.

We are parallel like the lines, that make equal
Young mimics of love pray to be our sequel
Our love is not but we are ordinary people
We keep love on top like the cross on a steeple
Just love people

I can’t get close to people,
I’m fancy-free.
I hide in the shadow of the steeple,
for eternity.
I see the world from my peep hole,
as my own VIP.
My brain is as sharp as a needle,
Yet my soul has abandoned me....

PEOPLE
Please let it go and love other people
Put ourselves and our soul under the steeple
All of needle is all of devil
Let's focus on how to become a good disciple

When I saw the learned
Astronomer
Chasing stars from his clumsy steeple
I heard the fate of
Andromeda
in the curse of a thousand people

Fallen! Broken! Praise be 
Damned!
The star has flown and will never
land!...

Specks of fire  flies by

Flickering amid shadows,

Glimmering fireflies.

Lone vibrant beacon poises

On steeple leaf in darkness.

I will write a poem tonight
even if it is this simple

There was once a girl I liked
it turns out her name was Purple

She listened to clocks at night
sitting underneath a steeple

Oh I wonder if one might
realize she was a squirrel...

I hear the chimes pealing from the steeple high
Glorious sounds of hymns hovering over all ~~
          Like sweet voices of angels their message nigh
          From ages past a clear and certain clarion call.
