By Poet.... "Haven hide me safe and sound. Far away from this cruel world. Give me peace of mind and body."
The story of my haven,
as I ran from the huge raven.
Was I living in a cave-in?
Life's pictures have been hung with a cloth pin.
The huge raven represents life,
the cave-in represents midlife.
Where did life go?
Time had no flow,
no more glow.
All the time I was low,
I just wanted to live and to grow.
Hiding in my safe haven covered with snow,
I now watch TV and a new game show.
In the Name of Yeshua..By the power of The Holy Spirit, under the seal of the Allmighty Father..I COMMAND YOU EVIL
SPIRITS IN THIS WORLD TO REVEAL YOURSELVES.!!! also the wicked acts that
Have been carried out.' By whatever satanic group..I COMMAND THEY BE SHOWN.!!! All things seen and un-seen are subject to God, therefore subjects do
As instructed.' I claim the current media
channels in the world must allow Gods Truth
To be shared.' I trust many Christians will
Also request the same.' All blessings to every reader.'
the looming distance between head and heart
is bridged when mind is instrumentalised
used when needed, otherwise rested
whence truth of Self is realised
being our light innate and intimate
torrent of bliss magnetism in full spate
He's not the boy she used to know
wherever in the world did he go
nor the man we once knew
but it only goes to show
time and tide took its toll
for all that he's become
and just one look will soon tell
if he'll maintain or succumb
as overwhelmed by numbers
and totally surrounded
through all weather can he ever
remain steadfast or grounded
Elephant with pizzaz knew he was all that day after day
So glitzy that notorious drag queens had turned him away
He wanted to be in a show of some kind, so he was
It was shut down quickly by the jealous, the coppers, the fuzz
Elephant decided to rent his own meadow and have a sing
The other animals brought their lawn chairs to hear his ting-a-ling
He gave them a show like no other performer could ever have done
They came back and paid him money, because they had so much fun!
This is amazing
My favorite t.v show here
The color purple
Bracing herself for her big moment
called upon to sing the show-stopper
She breathes deeply, exhales
pours all the feeling a twelve-year old girl
hides deep within
into words as much hers as if she had penned them …

We pretend that
we're not easily impressed
but she truly is
an amazing gymnast
who at every chance
shows off her skills

Biggest disloyalty when one's loyalty is to out side country!
WE ARE ALL PERPLEXED
WHAT WAS AGREED IN THE TEXT
LEAVING US ALL VEXED
Why do you show me this face?
It only brings me to tears
With dark circles about sunken eyes
Now it shows its years.
Why do you show me this face,
This face I knew so well.
With Eyes that cease to sparkle,
Now tears have begun to swell.
Why do you show me this face?
With skin that no longer shines
Worn and lined around the lips,
No laughter lines.
Why do you show me this face?
Why, mirror, must you reflect so bold
For all I see is time’s own trace
where youth once burned like gold.
Stale, summer
Heat.
Boiling in this
Skin bath
Are you and I.
An obsession,
Now a memento
Of dark complexion,
Stiffened surprises.
I burrow into the
Pill case now
With no more than
An ant farm
In my pocket.
I had never before heard of the faerie of the sea
They had to prove the existence of her to me
I grew up in Missouri, you see
The “show me state” which should tell thee
we have to see it ourselves, or we will not believe
They took me to the ocean in a boat called S.S. McVee
Faerie of the Sea came swimming by and gave me a nod.
Guess you are the doubting Thomas named Rob?
I watch the TV show The Voice and laugh off my pantaloons
The judges are hilarious, better than cartoons or old buffoons
People ask me all the time why I love this singing show so much
Because II am a part of the judging panel, feeling completely in-touch.
