Premium MemberIf I Were Looney

On the bus I pass by a building
We refer to as the looney bin
I can’t help but be looking

I see patients that aren’t locked in
They hang out catching a ray of sun
While smoking with an air of chagrin

They never look like they’re having fun
I think if I were in the looney ward
I’d want to escape the blah phenomenon

I’d want to pretend I won some big award
For being crazy happy with no reason
And I’d be laughing all day as my reward

They could accuse me of flaming treason
I wouldn’t care I’d be spreading christmas joy
No matter what the time or season

In the looney bin I’d whop it up like a real McCoy

Premium MemberHoly Art Thou

Son of God
Lord
You are:

Oracle of peace
wise counselor
source within the living waters

That breathes life
into insightful predictions
of our future holdings

Son of Mary
With grace and mercy
one regal descendent of David

A sacrificial birth born
under the shadow of the cross
the Son of the most high

An eternal ruling Monarch
whose loving touch precludes no man
behold our King has come

Immortal spirit of divinity’s
Fulfilling the prophesies
divinely anointing our Prince of Peace

Truth held under Christian virtues
through the portal our great Father
forever speaks within, Amen


unrhymed tercets

A co-written piece by Liam Mcdaid & Donna Loughman

Premium MemberHappy Birthday Saviour

Today a trail of tears 
ran softly down my cheeks a chain 
Salt of this earth within countless suffering

For the love of God and the risen Christ 
In the name of peace Honour His Holiness 
We approach the birthday of our Lord

King of the promised land 
Your crowned Almighty in my soul 
Peace you came with angels rejoicing

Beholding three wise men kneel 
following your starlight Shepherd of destiny 
Baby Jesus I love you with all of my heart completely

Premium MemberNever Too Old

NEVER TOO OLD

wild as man himself
those fantasy images
puzzling nature sings –
cross the moon that heav’n born sleigh,
his hearty voice, “ho, ho, hey!”

winter’s swirling wind
with chimney feet sent moaning,
how it sparks the flame,
how yuletide dreams join the dance,
fancy reindeer’s rooftop prance

christmas for children?
nay! one is never too old
to catch the spirit,
vision elves upon the stairs
blowing stardust everywhere
