Sucking ticks do ache....

the rays falling like light-rain -

Lingering devotion for another that withstands the many
Obstacles that comes your way further
Validating your love as true as
Evidence of it is all around...

Withstands, as rain pours,
Endures the treacherous night,
Remains motionless.

Morning dew glistens,
Petals blushing in the wind,
Equip for Victory.

October's rose, October's rose
High upon the trellis grows
Silky petals in the rain pose
October's rose, October's rose

Withstands the wind, cloudy gray sky
October's rose on trellis high...

This life is a bird and we are it's feathers  
This bird becomes strong and withstands all  weather 
It's wings expand wider when we  stick together 
Then this bird we call life takes us much further...

It is not the physical ardor that helps someone bear and overcome calamities
 
But

The strength of one's mind that withstands the colossal waves of misfortunes!

enchanted white rose
withstands the cold of winter
memorable sight
night frost paints diamond dust
Our brave bloom becomes a gem

Friendship
Withstands life's storms and showers,
Applauds when the sun shines,
Extends a hand when life's road runs rough,
Offers a shoulder when life gets heavy,
Cries when life hits a bump,
Remains beside
"Just in case."...

~~~~Flower for Heidi~~~~ 

Is it the lasting touch or the telephone, 
one's loved so much when feet find home.
Sentimental for the days recorded duly, yet hope withstands,
gentle flowers afforded beauty by Heidi Sands. ~Heidi's hands~...

Lifting eyes I see a vision.
Senses feel cool crisp mountain air.
I know not my mortal mission.
Though this glory I hereby share.
Rising peak of Heavens highlands,
Paradise, our ecstasy withstands.

The picture is a window to another world
wide open, allowing me to gaze freely into 
the distance,
getting lost in the warm blanket of fuzziness
that brings a smile to my face,
finding myself in a shelter from the cold
that blocks even the harshest wind
and withstands even the fiercest of storms....

A person humble,
A person kind,
Fear may flood mind,
Bravery stands dry,
Help brakes from the crowd,
Bravery withstands the storm,
When you stand out,
Your works remembered,
Your love shines,
Effecting many,
Hurting few,
When you stand out,
Good men are watching,
Good men chase you,
One will capture you....

I stand indifferent to rat-nosed Time who gnaws,
I stride oblivious to Time’s laws,
His ravenous, remorseless years’ assault.
The rat’s teeth sink.  Then halt.

My leg withstands, impervious to fangs of Time.
Acknowledging that rodent is a crime.
The vermin soon is mashed beneath my heel
To grease.  There—hearken to his squeal....

Shall I contend thee on a summer's day?
Thou art more vengeful and more aggressive.
Rough winds do shake the bleeding buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short to live. 

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven brands,
And often is his gold complexion grimmed;
And limit to the fear a mind withstands,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed....

Stab me in the heart you viper 
Lay me down to sleep
Struggling with the man i am 
Send me down to the deep 
Who am I or what am I 
Whom have I become 
Who should know 
No friend or foe 
Cheap words slide off my tongue
A lier lies 
No shock surprise 
Your blind if you can't see 
The truth withstands 
Of all life's plans 
The worse part of myself is me...

Snails carry home on their back,
Weighed by burden, joy they lack
Never keep tensions in your head
Always be carefree, happy instead

Almighty God who created you
Loves and takes care, it is true
Birds nest of twigs, grass, leaves, light
Withstands winds blowing with might

Always be happy, smile joyously little one
While smiling tensions are reduced to none

As a poet it pays
to travel around
And visit new words
in verse still unfound

The time and the place
you hold in your hand
To barter the truth
as beauty withstands

As a poet it’s wise
to cross every line
To scale every mountain
with peaks still to climb

The muse of a traveler
when strange and unknown
Your spirit set free
—the horizon your home

Album clutched by hands
    trail along reverie’s lane,
      unraveling soft moments
one photo withstands,
   flickers of time that remain
     wafting through  savored events.

Ribbons mark a face
    changing from beam to twilight,
      oh last sheet, in disarray
where in fond embrace
   she recalls an autumn plight,
losing him in cold war’s fray.

Scarecrow’s tattered clothes
Clever birds are never fooled
Sit defiantly
Arms of hay hold heckling birds
Eating the last grains of corn
 
Nature’s curtain falls
Vibrant leaves make no encore
Tumble to damp soil
Yellows and reds turn to brown
Trees’ skeletal limbs shudder
 
Fall’s first kiss of frost
Invades farmer’s pumpkin patch
Hardy fruit withstands
Trick-or-treaters carve faces
Jack-o-lanterns light doorsteps...

Dear God,

I come to you today,
Because all I can do is pray
For a precious little lady
Who is known as Kaylee
If it is Your will this day
Please take her pain away
Guide her with Your loving hands
So the surgery, she withstands
Encircle her dear family
With Your angels, is my plea
Keep her safe and make her well
She is so loved, can’t You tell
These things I ask of You
Make our prayers come true
In the name of Jesus Christ
Amen...

War
so perilous 
when love's weak
but infirm
when love's resistant
when love's firm
war,
as a powerless constraint
fails
then love
takes its stand
like steel
on solid smooth land
unshaken
little wind cannot break
war is subdued
battle fails
love prevails
like a resisting seed
under dare-pressing conditions
love withstands
war's weak hands
love remains
love triumphs
against uneven paths
love survives.

Sounds all around
Not heard
Speechless
As time passes on
A crowd
Frozen not a word
Shyness around
Voiceless
Reality myth
Spoken in doubt
Words of encouragements
Life's about
Voice was heard
The crowd in a pause
Suddenly it was loud
Thunder roaring
People running
Prayers lifted high
What a time, oh my my
Silence withstands
Non-fear
Taken up gears
Voiceless.

The end results
A safe place
The voices of joy
Spoken out
Non-doubt
Voiceless....

 a  lonely lark withstands
               the heterogeneous dark..
