All My Life
All my life I fled
No foe nor friend
And nothing want
From earth
That can supplant
My worth
My cross alone
I carry like a throne....

Acceptance
Our fate ends right here
Even there’s a solution
It won’t be supplant
Time to say farewell for good
I’ll treasure all the effort...

There’s value bean counters can’t grant
Supplant not old models they chant!
They rant that life forms’	
Cells must fit spreadsheet norms
As accountants’ brains are quite scant...

Time
TIME passes timepieces sundials, water clocks known relics of past time timers supplant the hourglass “I-phones put the wristwatch on hold.”

The Fifth Season
Can memory destroy vision,
  if the tables turn

Can time surpass insight,
  as its distance churns

Can faith supplant reason,
  from its place on high

Can love be the fifth season,
—and our final goodbye

(Villanova Pennsylvania: October, 2016)...

Growing Love
Within my soul there is a whisper –
A phantom that once ruled my heart;
At times I feel it softly flicker,
Its aching cold abruptly start

Yet, with a thought it disappears,
As new love’s roots supplant the old,
And lend the warmth of promised years
To this young heart, to bloom and grow....

Happiness Burns
Happiness burns

Visions of eternity, crash and burn in her mind,
Her delusional imposters supplant our reality.
Lightning strikes to the brain, burn our happiness to the ground.
On the floor lay my fragments...her love was the glue that held me together.

Here lies a broken man poem
now entered in 
Greg Barden's Liberum Divisa 5 contest

Premium Member Winter Approaches
winter approaches snowflakes tumble from the sky a sprinkle of white As brisk breezes scatter leaves around, Autumn colors confetti the ground. Winter winds howl through barren branches shaking off any remaining leaves. Mother Nature is in transition; stripping the scenery yet again. The naked trees are in remission till Spring showers; water them with rain; and green canopies supplant the plain.

Premium Member The Curious Persistence of Contempt
Seasons change, love remains; my heart stays soft.
In marital bond, your touch soothes the hard.
Though less gentle fondness falls from your mouth.

Through gale storms and glee, I have held my mouth.
In the autumn of our lives, I need soft,
lambent serenades to supplant the hard.

Each cycle through time has made your bind less hard.
Weathering me brought you down to your knees, soft.
Still no affinities fall from your mouth.

My lover's mouth, blustery and hard, be soft....
