Premium Member April

When April comes
she will do as she pleases
concerning snow or gentle breezes
as for her mood no one can say
she's not as calm as her sister May


Premium Member Sanguine Sandy

Sandy had a cheerful temperament
Optimistic, hopeful, confident,
Tried to take her down
She promptly left town,
Sanguine always is this resident.

Just Another Day

I painted a smile on my face

It required the right temperament

I do wear it out on Sundays

And when the evening stars bring twilight

My smile retires for the night

Premium Member Without a Parachute the Other Flies

Never let your heart win the debate

If your mind has a cogent argument.

They both wander from time to time;

One has a temperament to analyze,

Without a parachute the other flies.

Temperament

Yellow Sun beaming hot Irrational thoughts jar Short tempers flare into raging Angry words accompany threatening fists A cool-down period is needed Bystander stops the fight Aware the man's Yellow

Premium Member A Favorite In Dublin Town

Scottish Highland calf was a favorite in Dublin Town.
We loved his temperament, he was up, never down.
He bathed in roses, daisies, and autumn leaves, so brown.
King of kindness was his title, given along with a crown.

Music has given to me
Comfort and serenity

A truly pleasant escape
My temperament… it does shape

Relaxing tones soon begin
My soul... they touch, deep within

Music has given to me
Piece of mind and tranquility

Premium Member Temperament

Poets are known for temperament
                            ~ like all creative kinds,
Always given to intense argument
                 ~ with those of differing minds.

Fence Sitter

Being a middle child
Made my temperament mild
And not so demonstrating
But some would think off-putting

But it is not a popular place
When the world appears in a race
And sitting on the fence
Is one made for defence and not offence.

Talent

As laugh, consideration's pride
I frown, I frown, I so deride,
this humbleness, from youth's confide
that learning temperament reside!

I cry the diabolic spine
that curves in moment's new express,
this standing firm is my define
the talent being my ingress!

On Top of Failure

On top of failure
Is a lonely Lucifer
Awaiting my arrival
I have fallen below bounds
That were once so familiar to my feet
So, the ground feels different,
Hotter and slightly unstable
Much like my temperament
And in this case
‘F’ does not signify fantastic
But we all know what it means

My Great Madness

My artistic temperament 
between great madness and art
is a creative necessity
Of emotional highs and lows.

My pen is mightier than the sword
And so I release my great madness of my muse.



'The pen is mightier than the sword' was coined in 1839 by Edward Bulwer-Lyton for the play, Conspiracy.

ON MADNESS

The weary mind is heading to decay
In my last moment, sanity logic shall fall
Reasons will lessen, intellect fades away.

The weary mind is heading to decay
Feeling the temperament turning astray;
From being essential turning small.

The weary mind is heading to decay
In my last moment, sanity logic shall fall

The Human Temperament and Voyage Poem

Radical, peace and spontaneity bonds together like a wind gusting across an ocean. It's who we are as complex human beings. It's who we endeavor to be as our own unique being.

Often present glimpses of our lives give us little indication to where we are actually going; so amid the complexities, allow your sails to lead you far and wide.

Premium Member One Times One Equals One

The need to know and to belong,
to sing the chorus and the song,
to learn to share and be a part,
not at the centre,in the the heart;
To play a role,an instrument
finely tuned in temperament,
one of many,in symphony,
essential,yet in harmony;
Yet we each,unique,individual,
in unison,sacred,sacremental.

Inspired by Jesus prayer in J 17:11

Premium Member Double Edge of the Sword

The pen
not so mighty perhaps
as men choose swords -- 

words not so powerful
enough, as men restrict
their dialogues to: Ready!
Aim! Fire!~ and mourning... 

Global warming...tectonic plates…
asteroids from a-far, hold no candle
to man’s temperament~ when war-fully
lit…

temples and churches they fill

God only in their chanting….

Moonlight

Moonlight

Mild sweet swelling dew. Radiant brow, renewed. Weave me a tone of haste, silence we will not waste. Gather my heart spent tone, caress my wavy crown.

Thine, I am yours, spiritual hand, moonlight mother, sing the sooth, yours the giving, the longing mood. Say the word, demand the dwelling, yours the natural rising. Temperament quelling.

Flipped Life

A Bright Sunday morning,
Brooded up with melancholic sparrows,
Dull and dusted eyes,
Drowning dread for destiny,
Captivating cameras on side,
Clowns of artistic caterpillars,
Madness of molten mind,
Mavericks turned to money mongers,
Trust transformed as bribing cash,
Temperament to toil itself,
Likewise,
Another century flowing forth,
An another life time.
