Riding out
into the sunset
towards sunny uplands
before moons fall
scattering rock
and tiny diamonds
as crimsoned penumbra
encircles all things.
Dark swoops like a bat
to engulf the rasping throes
of surety.
Dawn awakes fretful
Mirrors and masks fail.
Recall with me those wild and free
passionate days of young glory,
with racing pulses at a touch,
early in our story;
when hope met want and wanted hope
and doubt was given blind love’s eyes;
when sounds of discord were drowned out
by laughter and by sighs;
when mystery and discovery
walked hand in hand along the way
and mutual findings, so lovely,
enriched our every day;
when, parted any time at all,
we felt it much too long to bear;
and hunted hungry-eyed until
we saw the other there.
A time of growing surety;
of testing out and finding good.
‘Could this one be the one for me?’ -
and finding this one could.
That spirit found its oaken home.
The years have burnished love to gold;
mellow but stronger than its youth,
though we have grown old.
Peace and joy - and rare sadness -
I’ve loved our walk through time Agnes.
Fresh then full, and promising more,
we’ve shared a life of gladness.
success is stair-shaped ...
starting with baby steps ...
striding for childhood surety ...
selflessly sharing along maturity-seal ...
settled midst satisfied old age serenity ...
soaring toward gratitude-bliss' shine ...
sufficed along God-blest sustenance!!!

Daisies beneath my feet,
Time of mine moving so sweet.
As I fly on the yellow clouds of purity,
So fast I tip toe in surety.
The scent surrounding my body in full.
The beauty kindly swallowing me whole.
My smile rises as i look down yonder the hill,
For I have the right to free will.
Instant the command
As decisions
In labouring the fields
A civil war of family's avoiding
Yet the enactments mimic
As bond as surety
In financing burdens
One wishes not to carry
Carriage as stable
Nightingales lost fables
Ferry in twist
Smirking gentle and smits
To the good Friday of Ireland
The Stars Above
Are made with love
Those shining things
That bling
Diamonds pearls
Those certain curls
That send our world
Into a special dream
The taste that pleases
The help
That eases
The surety
Of a mothers love
The trust
That waits
The welcome space
Waiting up above
The sun came up
As bright as ever
Today;
Goldenly showing me
The way:-
Away, went fear and insecurity,
And through divine wisdom
And guidance,
I found strength’s surety,
And faithful abundance:-
Indeed, I once was lost,
But now I’m found;
And only belief was the cost:
Peace, like love, has always
Been freely around:-
Hey, look, feel, and know,
In all of life’s hunger and thirst,
Love has always been there to feed,
And peace has always quench its thirst;
Oh, if only humanity could be just as versed!
P.S.: Hey, if you’re lost and need to be found,
Don’t worry,
Just cry out in amazing grace and faith, and
Wait on God’s glory:-
Celtics laud place of hawks
mi ancestors move beyond
the greenery the gravity of
harsh findings rolling over
meadows and mead craving
the heavenly harness meeting
between Devon Tullock missouri
minding the mended fences
crawling ivy surety closes our
eyes as shamrock dance greeting
tomorrow morning today
Irish
Close your dream filled eyes
Quiet your anxious, loud mind
Run wild from the intrusive taunts
Fixating, gossiping over you in silent,
Yet understood tongue.
Let the lies of yourself fall through
Unravel the programming stringing you along.
Step in surety, embrace the unknown
Befriend uncomfort - watch yourself grow.
Beneath your sadness and tears of dew
Rests a welcoming child your heart once knew.
Greet them in play, spark up a chat
Let dance the flow of life as it once was.
Invoke change, shake it’s hand
Say hello to strangers you may never know.
Spend days away from civil happenings
Only passable roads lie between you and freedom -
From all that is truly needed.
The Renunciation
the balance between
us through channels
so well hidden an yet
seen beyond the offering
through Christ who we
are completely bestowed
throughout many untimely
blessings utterly totally
renouncing satan and
all of his works surety
over flows through Grace
our rapture covenant
by the birth of Christ
for this is ours this is
our time for this is eternal

Why is this thing called love
when by its fragile intent
becomes a sudden slow ember
to then simply feed upon the flames
of its own bonfire
Those cursed lips
taste of a bounteous feast
so sweet its infection
is loves elegant torture
when from starvation
desire is released
Ah ! Harlequin trickster of doubt and surety
within sleepless dreams
comes to taunt the flowers
and in petal meadows wander secretly
Hide from the fact
run to the truth
does a lie hang there
from the temples roof
does the paradox entwine
from the souls own making
and is it yourself you are forsaking
Why oh why
all this hesitant hesitation
I think I will stretch away from normality
because somewhere in sanity
I am evidently crazy
Searching has only brought this
this troublesome need
and its urgent request
a periscope peering
from out of my own depth
Expectant art
stunning beauty
written on the tongue
of latent sensuality
should I die
shall I be born
and allow joyous terror
to devour me
relinquish
accept
and in the end
vanish with love into eternity
dread, rising up while all hope is dying
safety and surety of joy, a soul ignores,
apprehensive, worried, insecurity’s complying
pouring out tension from deathly doors,
bleeding heart whose shadow is petrifying
Ripped from submissive
timing employed empowered
by selfless energies I tired
beneath the notions of hidden
tangible lessons entrusted
entangled by mastery cleverly
designed inbound communication
I catered to endless emotions
that dissipated dissolved on
impact tampering with desire
holding on to the mere essence
of my own adoration beyond what
is next what is covenant what is
protected upon a chess board
protecting the queen’s soul body
and heart at all cost a rapture of
surety creating mastering safety
above all else saving protecting me
