amidst the thickets of forest

at ease within the thickets of thought
essence of being flows like the breeze
there is no bondage save self imposed
each impulse we embrace and release

H aunted houses with thickets surround
O ld castles where mysteries abound
S tarved faces greatly confound
T errible bat worse than a hound

The thickets were traitors,
Front and back they cut me down
Till I lost the sight of my buttery;
Gasping like blacksmith’s belows I asked:
What flesh did antelope even have?

Verse
A tree learns it in jungle,
And earns its place in palace;
Thickets woven to lamb,
Have become toast in castles;
Teach me the wonders of Christmas,
I wish to be the shining gold.

cool midnight summer
a domestic, rabbits trots
despite loud crickets
midnight summer cool
rabbits trots across the grass
despite the thickets

A whining wind howls
Snowbirds scatter to thickets
Snow begins to fall.....

Seeing through dreams
spoil your eyes
Time is your enemy
calling your name
the sound is deep
the lasting stars
always the same ghosts
haunt you
go to the shoals
to the mer
unburden the choices you made
the thickets cant defeat you

Bewitched and driven mad
Hearing many voices
Taking on even more personalities
Being led by hirelings
Tossed to and fro
With every wind and doctrine
Caught, bleeting in thickets
Waiting to hear the Shepherd's voice
Sheep hear it and know it
And get untangled
A stranger they will no longer follow

You love African violets.
It was a surprise then
when you confessed a passion
for Gladioli.
We bring home thickets of them
vivid, over-the-top floral giraffes.
They dwarf everything in the apartment,
I have a new appreciation for the word 'galore',
they provide shade for the African violets.

I fear Hatred has deepened
the thickets surrounding us,
erecting thorns where there
should be blooms.
I fear that we have defined fire
as the Condemnation of Chaos
rather than believing in the heat
of its pure, creative essences.
If there are fires to be spread,
may we be scorched with Love.

losing one's way through
the thickest thickets
and thorniest bushes in the
darkest jungles
only whets the urgent urge
of the roving soul
to be able to blaze even the
faintest of trails
that hopefully leads back
to a jubilant heart!

steamy jungle
dense undergrowth
viny overgrowth
thickets abound --
monkeys chatter
foretelling doom
snakes hissing
eerie sirens --
bamboo sticks
in the ground
spiked with poison
puncture unsure feet...
all to protect
an unseen enemy
raining bullets down
from nowhere
~ Viet Nam, 1966 ~

when it snows in April
fifty years after Martin Luther King, Junior
we pray for a permanent thaw
when frost attacks our gardens
so thorns and thickets linger
we pray our hearts may be that good soil
what seeds will we sow this spring
the tubers are in, and perhaps beans -
without strings - God bless us everyone

Blank verse
Out in the thickets
Time stands alone
Limping around
Minute by minute
Not hearing a sound
But a melodic siren within
Off pitch and piercing
Hold back the pain
No longer
March on it screams
March on
Let the beast devour my flesh
And allow me to
March on

Through the forest tear thirteen fine thoroughbreds
Fraught with tension they flick their fair heads
Thrashing through the thickest thickets fittest first
Thundering from forest for the fields they thirst
Freed from their flight they finish together
Thirteen fine thoroughbreds frolic forever

Cowboy Poetry
Wagon ruts--those cut backs
Of roads along a ridge
Heal in natural obsolescence,
Heal with rock and wash ripping gullies,
Bearing gnarled root
And jagging teeth of jutting quartz,
Heal with rain and wind
Flinging seed darts to stubble thickets
For holding in a mountain's side,
Heal and vanish from all those
But that old man whose weight
Was of the time and purposes
Of wagon ruts.

Snowflakes fall thither to the drapes of my heart,
Savoring strong bonds to the joy of days anew,
Layering six feet of emotions forlorn,
Fear is all I feel, and my heart has split to two.
Will the sun ever shine like in days of old?
Will its warmth ever thaw these thickets of ice?
I long for that day when men shall be one,
When love and unity shall become comm’n ground.

Classicism
In thickets of the heart
Thorns with tears to impart
Will make the willow weep
Where pain is buried deep
When moonlight frames love's dream
By a gently flowing stream
Winds with tears of sorrow
Will leave heartache for tomorrow
And beneath the starry sky
The willow tree will cry

Rhyme
Uncle was a stout version of dad
Which I found quite interesting.
And a very different lifestyle he led.
Dad was a fastidious medical guy
But uncle just a farm worker
Content just to get by.
He lived on a white man's farm
Amidst the kalahari desert thickets
Where jackals often brought harm.
Their abode was a land of milk
Although the flies were everywhere.
But against hunger they had a shield!

When the reflections don't match the day
When the right questions aren't known
Its time to put yourself away
and be solvent
Turning your head to all you deny
When you find yourself in shambles
needed no where
thats when you have to give yourself away
You find yourself in shambles
Tis the way to put your faith in somebody
Turn the handle
away from the rose thickets
Look out for tomorrow and
live today
