Dewdrops

We are born but dewdrops on the green – JOTS IN THE BOOK OF LIFE
And may weigh down our leaf and fall into the dirt – THE EARTH WAITS TO RECEIVE US
Or in time take Elijah’s invisible chariot into the heavens – AMEN

Premium Member Worries

unspoken,unsaid
swirl,whirl
ripple,ruffle
tease,torture
delve,funnel
foreboding burrows,
in narrow tunnels;

Fazed,crazed
imagined fancies,
unnerve,unsettle
weigh down
upset perturb;
abound and tease 
with imagined dis-ease.

Premium Member On The Sea of Love

LOVE can conquer all, they say
EVIL cannot prevail
LIFE is sweet when lived this way
FILL, with wind, the sail
LIFT me from this darkness, the darkness where I drown... 
TILL, floating, burdens fall from me, none can weigh down.
LITE and free, oh let it be, where 'ere love can be found.

Premium Member Gods of Egypt and Rome

passion and grapes
elixir of lots
     life mingled
     with venom

     power and youth
brush fire fingers

     flickering
          burning
               yearning

    caesarean coins
weigh down the neck

of the divine
so called
basket of snakes

Alone In a Crowed Room

Click, click, click
I sit here
listening to the tap of keys 
I sit here 
with tears streaming down my face
I sit here
letting the pressures of my life weigh down on me
I sit here
no one sees my body tremble
I sit here
no one hears my ragged breaths
I sit here
listing to the tap of keys
I sit here

Fear

It can nail us to our chair
But it cannot prevent us from dreaming
It can obscure our vision
But it cannot touch our conscience
It can deafen our ears
But it cannot prevent us from listening
It can bind our tongues 
But it cannot suppress our thirst for truth
It can weigh down our spirit
But it cannot rob us of our freedom

Life Or Death

Does your good 
  outweigh the bad

Is the balance 
  happy or sad

Is your intention
  right or wrong

Does your prayer
  turn into song

Does the blame
  weigh down your heart

Can your light
  outshine the dark

Can the joy
  exceed the pain

Does one word
  your soul reclaim

Will His grace
  forgive your sins

Will new life or death
  —begin

Premium Member Lord Would You Carry Me-

Heavy burden My heart solid oh, Lord Lord would you carry me I'm solid weigh down Heavier than a rock Oh, Lord my Lord would you carry me And like a pebble thrown in the lake Skimming across and I'm falling There was too late, too late Tumbling, tumbling down to the bottoms Heavy burdened my heart solid Oh Lord , Lord would you carry - would you carry me

A wish

Far down below it's taking
Taking away the tandroms of guilt 
Pain and cries.
I have felt, seen and heard
The rocks , flowers trees big
But here, it's a tomb of joy which sweeps 
Sweeping away the ridges we have built from fear
From great theft of injustice
From cries and depression
Weakness and failures
We have come to leave the ill fate
The shock of being unwanted
As the winds sway pass,
Let  your, my weigh down drums 
Castles and rain of pain sweep away.

Premium Member Montreal Under Clouds

a rising sun nowhere to be seen
autumn clouds hang overhead
montreal dreary skies weigh down
metropolis threatened under siege
skyscrapers reach but come up short
smothered by a blanket of grey
unfurled over a sleepy cityscape
everyone scurries helter skelter
seeming cold and eerily distraught
autumn colors peppered about
in a panoramic october slumberfest
