ghostly possession
welcomed by writer poet
who was out of words
Ill call you my muse
you are full of ideas
wish youd come sooner
The thought of biblical Revelation
Voice of Prophecy
Song of assurance
One twinkle
Time revolving
The hour
The rapture
Unseen picture
The anticipation
Observe the signs
The skies full of clouds surrounding in formation
Strong indication
The World’s fate
Knee and pray before it’s too late
Fulfillment on target
Light quickly turns to darkness
The Thunder roars
Lightning flashes
Thief in the Night
Caught by surprise
Call of the Almighty
Tomorrow’s settlement
Buckle up for the journey
Soon very soon
The Sun swiftly declines
Eerie on the horizon
Sudden stillness
Time’s up
All clocks will stop
Tick tack no more
Moment of truth told
Heaven being bold
Did you listen and take heed?
Ready or not
The Lord shall come
Find yourself among
Soon than you think.
her eyes were leery, Buck thought it was directed at him
not realizing she did not see him yet
she turned her head and he saw her burgundy hair
like his mother’s, he was fascinated by that
he made a move toward her, but someone beat him to her
it was his cousin, Jake, of course, it would have been
Jake never lets an opportunity pass him by
She turned and met Buck’s eyes, there was some connection
Jake moved on to a blonde, and Buck moved a bit closer
She gathered her things and left, which gave him regrets
He wished he had made his move a bit sooner
“Aren’t you coming?” It was her voice.
She had returned for him.
He realized then how wrong he had been.
Forever is much sooner than it seems
When anticipation fuels imagination,
Filling up a child’s fancied daydreams
Forever is much sooner than it seems,
Fashioned as it is in fantastic schemes
Complete with fanciful consummation,
Forever is much sooner than it seems
When anticipation fuels imagination.

“Someday,” a beautiful yet so sad
Something I say to myself, every day.
Someday, however, I will finally be glad
For having always believed, “There is a way.”
It was in Historic Forcados,
Where I’d first touched Pride of Barbados:
I’d run into A Talking Salvador
Long arguing with Unshaken Ricardo,
Whose interest were in Stark Bravado,
His body partly building with Mamador …
Bravado-Loving and Preaching Ricardo
Would sooner he became A Matador
Than A-Many-Times-Decorated Commodore,
This proclaiming in a corridor,
Where on display, besides Mamador,
Were nourishing-seeming tomato
And as nourishing-seeming pimento.
“If you were a Commodore
For all your sung bravado,
You wouldn’t last with A True Bull!
Even energized and you were full!
You wouldn’t assert you had The Beast won
Between A healthy and Sickly one …”
A Commodore’s strength is his ship
Plus the holstered pistol on his hip,
No frightening neck muscle sticking out
When chooses he to ‘MARINERS!’ shout.
Eventually, many centuries have passed
In the hopeless desire to uncover
This hidden pain.
And, in the shower of unpredictable love
The barren land of my restless soul
Will nourish again.
Maybe today or tomorrow, the blank pages
Of the unwritten book will shine
With pearl-like words.
Along with, the doors of unlocked cages,
Locked with a secret code will reopen
For imprisoned birds.
The day is about to come, which is expected in the unexpected world
Perhaps like a fraud.
So, call up all your subdued kith and kins,
To kill that blood soaking trauma
With your sword.

Sooner than later
What’s meant to be will always find a way
Goodbyes will turn to goodnight and we’ll stay
Sooner than later......
It’s gonna happen anyway
Let’s lay it on the line
We’re running out of time
Each second holds a mem’ry we could lose
My only constant is you
Who knew that it would come to this
Soulmates really do exist
Let me love you for the rest of our days
Cause It’s gonna happen anyway
Sooner than later
What’s meant to be will always find a way
Goodbyes will turn to goodnight and we’ll stay
Sooner than later.....
It’s gonna happen anyway
Not a day passes ever
That you’re not steady on my mind
Not all dreams last forever
But I am yours and you are mine
We’ve tried to fight off these emotions
But truth be told we both know
Loving sure seems lonely
With this seed that’s left unsown
Sooner than later
What’s meant to be will always find its way
So won’t you love me tomorrow
Cause it’s gonna happen anyway
Sooner than later
It’s gonna happen anyway
Man,
sooner or later would be called upon,
A very hard decision to take
Either deadly technology to keep
Or his own existence to forsake!

With Indian Ocean greeting the South and Himalayas guarding the North,
Everything was plural in our minds as in our rebellions, birds and beasts!
Now there could be a thousand laws, attempting the odds, to break the bond,
Yet remember well, our United voices never weakened, not even at Pellets!
With Churches lying next to Mosques, never a conflict, without the politicians,
Not a dispute occurred, for there are always stronger sisters, leading us right,
Fighting the laws that divide us, reminding we are brothers and fathers first!
Everything from food, dress and dialect to politics, streets and graveyards,
Can divide us oft, but we are lastly brothers too, more relative than the time itself.
Maybe today tests us, but hold on, as our fathers fought for freedom without rest
Sooner, we shall rise above, to fight together and reach the visions they fought for.
In all nations the lover gives
He didn't wait a reward every one wants
He must give his soul to who loves
Even every thing is bad but who loves must be happy
Is the most desire that he tries daily
The roses smile when their lovers smile also
The weather is happy and sadness goes faster
Don't hate your self and help other
Give your hand to who needs you sooner
Don't let the poor suffering
The life is happy when the peace is covering
In all nations the lover gives
He didn't wait a reward every one wants
He must give his soul to who loves
Even every thing is bad but who loves must be happy
Is the most desire that he tries daily
The roses smile when their lovers smile also
The weather is happy and sadness goes faster
Don't hate your self and help other
Give your hand to who needs you sooner
Don't let the poor suffering
The life is happy when the peace is covering
I never have really said
That I have had regrets
But if I had the chance
I'm sure some things I'd do different
I might slow down long enough
To enjoy some of what I've done
Not take too much so serious
Have a bit more fun
But the one thing if I could again
Out of all the things I'd do
Is I would make sure to fall
Sooner in love with you
There's only so much time
That we have in this life
Whether we get it wrong
Or whether we get it right
I'm just blessed to have the best
All for the count, hands down
And if given a second chance
I'd go another round
But the one thing if I could
Out of all the things I'd do
Is I would make sure this time
To fall sooner in love with you
