Premium Member Guardians of Israel

Poring over the holy books
  Hoary heads, stroking their beards

Calibrating ancient laws for 2022
  Eschewing payment, revered volunteers

Premium Member Viola

there
in the sidewalk's crack
a single viola
volunteers itself
for me
a yellow delight
appearing
for no apparent 
reason 
it just is

Lost

Cold
alone
afraid; yet
still scampering.
hoping searchers last
throughout the chilling night.
never stop moving; praying 
Great master lead me onto paths
where volunteers continue searching.
Lift My voice to sing;  that I may be found!

Premium Member Volunteers

sirens pierce the snowy air
demanding - a sudden call to action
vehicles fill the town hall lot
uniforms cover regular clothes
teams converge...
fire truck emerges and 
leaves with rapidly assembled crew…
neighbors doing what neighbors do

The Heartbeat of Our Land

No task too large, no task too small-
Offering a hand in need,
They're the heartbeat of our land,
Such a significant part of life.
Countless lives are forever changed
From the generosity of those that did.

What would we do without
The awesomeness of our volunteers?

The Left Eyeball

The Left Eyeball


Fired and banned from decorating the 
Halloween Ball in Elmwood Town Hall, the 
moon-coloured cornea and 
pupil and 
bloodshot Left Eyeball had been for staring and 
creepily weeping at leggy volunteers, 
some of whom he’d brought to tears.

Love the Lord

Lies fall upon my ears
Over and over again
Victims or volunteers
Everyone needs a friend
Things aren't that bad
How can you say
Everyone makes me sad
Love goes both ways
Or did you know a good deed
Returns back to you
Don't you get what you need
???It's what you don't do

Premium Member Once Cupid

Once upon a time, Cupid asked for volunteers for

He wished his archery on their hearts to practice.

Millions rushed forward the opportunity not to miss,

Alas, only a few arrows he had at his disposal!*

The Volunteers

They don't seek lights or chase applause,
The move for meaning, not for cause.
With hands that help and hearts sincere,
They're known by few, but held most there.

They mend the cracks, they calm the fears,
They build the bridge, they shift the gears.
No fanfare loud, no velvet cheers,
Just quiet strength and volunteers.

Premium Member Food Lines

Food prices rise, the people despair
Of long lines of vehicles for miles
Overwhelmed by need
Desperation tires their minds

Linda, single Mom, grips steering wheel
Inwardly asks, "How did I get here?"
Never thought it would happen to her family
Empathic food bank volunteers load her trunk
Sobering all-season snapshot of the U.S.

Premium Member Movember

Start 
to shape 
a moustache
this time of year,
handlebars, pencils,           
or lines from ear to ear,
funny grins for volunteers,
and charities will remember,
a tidy growth every November

handlebars, pencils, = types of moustaches

Hawaiian Eskimos Quacking lone duckling on a crystal lake, Queerly hops a loon, faux pas not a mistake, Quebec, dad's trunk roads for sightseers, Quaint scene, an edgy dad seeks volunteers, Qualifying mountie, Hawaiians, he indulges, Quality time, the whole of Canada, he divulges. 2022 July 26

Volunteers

A cold hard military
signed up for a bloodbath
marching two by two
down the path to oblivion.
Row by row
with cargo in tow
Their blackened hollowed eyes see their end.
Hand in hand
they meet their Gods and all their Devils
they have their picks
they have their shovels
to dig their shallow graves
just to realize an end
at last
they won't be saved.

April Is Cool


It was all through today rained 
That was how Oluwapelumi got me detained 
The dark-blue sky turns white
We along the weather sprite 
And shared enough cheers 
Under the canopy Aduragbemi  volunteers 
We laugh out hard on the grace we enjoy
Despite the rigor Corona virus envoy
This could be a happy new April fool
But right here, it is just very cool

What Can Be the Reasons To Keep Demons While They Are Volunteers To Take Them Out

When the sun rises 
and it is shining brightly 
on the entire earth. 

When  Holy Spirit
enters a holy person, 
stays permanently.

When demons enter
a dirty person , can be 
chased out easily.

But some people can 
keeping demons for Secret 
aims & deals  in their lives. 

Paul and Silas were 
In jail due to casting out 
demon from someone.

The Mark of Cain

Death twisted history,
guilts conferee
the liar unmasked
revenge by decree

His legions unfurling,
their flag through the smoke
the volunteers hailing,
preserving all hope

With dark days upon them,
no fear to be found
the women, the children,
in place underground

Around every corner,
behind every door
their liberty sacred,
today—evermore

Premium Member Lo Those Angels Kiss Me-

Volunteers rain down on me Gentle warm kisses softly the breeze Settlement flashes bright solar streams I missed the gathering tweeting birds sing And I acknowledge I am a follower I confess I am a lone survivor And as I witness all of this Waiting sweet angels kiss I relinquish I confess I partake of the Angels kisses Minm mumm hugs N love Let all Children say Amen

Jingle Bells

Christmas shopping I will go
Red kettles at department stores
Sidewalks covered in snow
Bell-ringers spreading Christmas joy

Volunteers bring Christmas cheers
Give a dollar or two or more
For the needy the bells ring clear
Red kettles need to be filled

Goodwill is in the air
Giving donations is what it's about
For those in despair
It's the Christmas sharing and giving part

My Garden Family

Some pretty flowers 
All facing one another
And a patch of grass

Entangled creepers
Proud roses and lilys
Smile shyly, discuss

Worms in a big bin
Eagerly waiting for greens
Crazy with hunger


There in a corner
Volunteers sprouted themselves
Waiting for transfer

butterflies and bees
birds, beetles and ladybugs
welcomed heartily

All plants and one me
Are the loving members of
My plant family

Reversing the Darkness

puente’

Mid callous deeds so cruel
kindness serves as nurse,
risk-takers help those injured
by evil doers’ curse. 
Summoning the golden rule
when the lights go out,
civilians move in concert

~ reversing the darkness ~

volunteers take care of needs
showing spirits rare.
Tireless effort will rebuild
whirlwinds’ wear and tear.
After nature’s forceful deeds,
unseen stars appear
as refuge in the night.

Volunteers

Volunteers,
Share each and every year.
They give their best.
They are motivated individuals,
Who have passed the test,
Which covers nobility, generosity, sincerity, and pride.
They lead us to the path of happiness and success,
With their hearts opened wide.
They guide the future to vast horizons,
With unselfish guidance.
Volunteers,
The chief examples of patriotism,
Of living the American way,
Each and every day.

Premium Member Painting the Mushroom

Painting the mushroom is quite an endeavor
We end up with six faerie volunteers who do it forever
The red is a beautiful color, I think it is enormously clever.
Says a pixie who likes painting with a paint easel lever.

I want to introduce a faerie princess from Kansas City she says.
She is a bit odd, even her name which is Lucille Naomi Inez.
Okay, we agree, but you have to take off that rhinestone fez.
It clashes with the feather she found on the res.
