Short Uttermost(A) Poems

To ask anymore of you would
be a display of greed at its uttermost
Besides nothing is more perfect than you
Just the way you are...

To get the most from summer trip to coast
start early dosed up with coffee and toast,
avoiding almost, the hot sunburn roast,
an uttermost certainty on seacoast,
when lying reposed in slumber engrossed,
you sleep well post noon, with your tardy host....

In the stillness 
of the lonely night
a melody of sorrow
is haunting me.
Your cruel words 
become the weight
of my tears 
leaving a trail 
of heartache 
etched into the stone 
of my soul.
Let my wounded sigh 
reverberate 
to the uttermost ends 
of the universe.
Let it echo back 
to me 
with the melody
of healing....

Christ the Messiah
He has arrived
Resplendent in the flesh
Isles of the uttermost ends
Soulfully rejoice as
Today and tomorrow's
Merriment sings forever
Alleluia to the birth of the
Son of God


Wishing everyone at Poetry Soup a very Merry Christmas
with love, Freddie...

Only this;
And a joyousness
Remembering many beautiful, matriarch models
And so you came gently in forgiveness;
Forgiving, allowing the arboreal atonement


I threw my resort upon the heart;
Of my cold unloving mind;
Back into my memories accommodating
That uttermost - that uttermost; 
And the savior was classifying;
The arboreal atonement allowing

utopia and bliss_
    unadorned, natural,
        uttermost last journey,
             unfathomable peace ...
undulating green, and
     ultramarine seas flow_
          "unbroken is my faith"

cabernet and dragonflies -
   red and green fireworks
      flitting about tall trunks;
   the woods is dark. patio lit
with tea lights, amber and ebony.
pink-crèpe jellyfish, in uttermost twilight,
   suspended from jumbo umbrella. 
breadsticks, like twigs, snap; several
   copious charcuteries.
flickering fate, speed of light
   of wedding tale, ancestry
      of one hundred years
will sail by in a nod,
but this eve is once upon a time,
merely the engagement.

Darkness uttermost
Howl gobblins, gooks, grinch and ghost
Dripping touch of night

Blood like curdled light
Candle tears, white serpents hiss
Shadowing the mist

Hell has broken free
Behind the masked jubilee
Of death's silent screams

Rats, pumpkins, dead dreams
In dried fairytales of leaves
Mark, our prank deceives

The shuddering knife
Not again, jack ripped his heart
With pale piper's fife.

Not heaven nor art
The cold merriment, a wheeze
Of dark wintry breeze....
