Faithfully; 
a man treads his path; 
he alone......

white walled treads and baby moons…

The narrow 
Threads of time
Weaving the 
Silk stars
Stitching the
Fields of gold...

I will speak of nothing harsh 
To say for nothing seldom 
Treads my path but wind ever...

Down untrodden paths  treads,
A soul devoid of dread,
To Home  calls echoes of the dead....

Blue satin’ed palette
Air heavy treads runneled face.
Rainbow flys piscean deep.

The red sled treads snow
But when it warms, grass you'll mow
Soon the black birds crow...

Our Golden Annie can smell bread 
From the other end of the house it spreads
“Uncanny Annie”
Star of our family
Comes bounding in she's got pretty good treads...

Who treads the trail now
When your questions ask me how
Why did you come this way
How is it for you, you say
Where will I end up then
Or is this for me the end.

Life silently treads

On shoes that are paper thin

Any time can tear.

life breathes 
and smells the odor of death 
with fear in fair or tear 

life walks 
treads the Lac of cells of the time 
and greets a den 
to dispose self

It is hard to be a Flake
Melting under pressure
Turning to slush

Good for nothing
But to slip
Some one up

Grimy and gross
Ground under boots
Everyone treads on me just because I can't stand the heat!...

river runs rampant
	drunken burbling and babbling ~
		dizzy dragonfly

rambling river rolls
	successful spawning season ~
		earthworm treads water

restful river ride 
	sudden stillness sits softly ~

Proud stands the solitary chestnut
to embrace each coming year
memories cowed deep in the bark
memories of yesteryear
Few share the old trees secrets
so few can pass that way
but every step that treads her path
leaves dreams of Shropshire days...

Colorful treads layered with gilt
fling upward, pulled by swift rage;
a work of art made with soft silk,
once pretty, now without image. 
How iridescent one seems...
as it flees from the messy base,
leaving the pile of torn strings;
it refuses to turn into lace!...

Aloof
                                            he walks with pride
                                     and flaunts his skills around
                                 he treads on toes with scorn until
                                                 he’s plucked...

Another unwanted
passes through memories
down mundane streets 
suburbs undaunted

available liquid pass
tempted nostril senses
youth invaded stolen by
unpure pretenses

soft like shreds of life
tears of laughter
preserve treads
to a childhood lost to
hereafter...

spare forgotten, now flat, abused,

                  like some veteran overused

                   in at least two world wars

       whose alleged treads are darkened scars,

            burnt, rubbed off rubber, unamused,

        frayed steel threads, no, I'm not excused....

I move with purpose and tremor 
   Wading in Death's Secret Sea to spill gray and heavy summers
Steaming rain is stalking
A walker crawls over with its incessant rage and hunger

Rest my heart in your cool resolve if you dare

Somebody soon dead
    treads upon your life....

Thundering down Olympus
Treads Ares 
The battle master
Ashen 
Piceous clad
Against midnights cloak
Returning human spirit
To the heavens
For upon drowning
Within his crimson gaze
Do we understand
That in faith
Lies divinity



Note: In Greek mythology Ares is the God of War....

I love you my Lord
Within
Is where we begin
Through the heart we honor
We rediscover
Lines beyond the treads
We saw so clearly within our heads
A world of dreams
Few have seen
Not many can
Will understand
Formation
Is God's gift of creation
Guided from above
Sent down with love...

Radiance spreads, God’s got our back
Heart, the epicentre 
There remains, no feeling of lack
For He is our mentor

Stillness slow, gentle flow 
Heart gentle and mellow
Each node within aglow

Thus bliss pulse treads
Radiance spreads

They sent him to serve without regarding his life
Voting for redemption instead of his kid and wife
He treads within mazes and shadows of a lost city
Those willing to die to save their family dignity
Fighting back against hateful ignorances believed
What anyone will gain is only how it is perceived...
