      Pressed on perforated lines by a lonely playmate 
      Affiance instant, folding fingers christen simulate 
      Phantasm button nose,  rosebud lips,  locks flaxen
      Escapist catalogues outfits alphabetically, all prim
      Repairs rapid, creases cease, orchestrated by him


      Dependable quotidian, fix fold away any faults
      Origami girl gives empathy, mouth without insult 
      Lilliputian with ripped ringlets, rested submissive
      Lets crafter cover stiff corners with sterile kisses

Sun From the East

R-ising sun from the east
E-clipses the night shadows; 
C-old chill and deep darkness
H-ave been replaced by glows.
E-arly sun from the east
L-ends the warmth and light; 
L-ife receives the blessings, 
E-verything is set aright.

V-iew on October thirtieth
A-ims to make your eyes pleased; 
L-et them behold the beacon, 
L-ook at the sun from the
E-ast.

Premium MemberOncle Albert - Part 2

In May the year of 1912 Albert left his home in  Lyon. 
He made his way to ecole Sommer at Genever's  Mourmelon. 
In June, with circuit d'Anjou done, and with his engineer,
Albert  deployed a newer engine, with eighty horse power thrust.
Leon Bathiat, colleague and friend that really he should trust
and himself a brilliant pilot, begged Albert not to try.
But on the 9th of June, while first ascending to the sky, 
some say they saw a wing detach, and fighting roller coaster loops
watched plane and men fall tumbling from the sky. 

Barely in his thirtieth year Albert, with his engineer, 
was destined then to die.
Those daring men In their flying machines sought fame and early fortune. 
Grand oncle Albert was also one, Grand oncle Albert Louis,
Affectionately known to my father as oncle Albert Louis, 'Kiki.'

Stairway

J-anuary thirtieth morn
E-rases the gray and blue; 
L-et the shadows fade, 
L-et the dark depart from
Y-ou.

A-llow the Sunday to pass, 
L-etting Monday light shine; 
F-ill your heart with mirth, 
A-nd thrill to your mind.
N-ew dawn brings warmth
T-o the wide skyway; 
E-levate your every step, as you use the stairway.

Here But Gone

The present once noted,
is really the past

A thirtieth of a second,
perception if fast

Most people are slower,
 the flash that accepts

What our psyche affirms
—now gone and reset

O-ffer Him heartfelt praise;

A-lways glorify His name; 
Z-ealously give thanks to God, 
A-nd you'll be saved from flame.
R-evere the Father up above, 
E-arly thirtieth of January; 
N-o way will you go amiss, 
O-nce you serve the Almighty.

See the Break of Dawn

E-arly break of dawn
L-ets the beacon appear; 
E-vening shadows fade, 
T-wilight is no longer
H-ere.

B-ehold the break of dawn, 
O-pen your eyes and look, 
N-ew morn has broken, 
C-omforting the saddest nook.
A-pril thirtieth Sunday, 
L-onely dusk is gone; 
E-ach cloud turns white, 
S-ee the break of dawn.

Scales Fall From Your Eyes

S-cales fall from your eyes, 
A-ugust thirtieth Wednesday; 
R-ealize the whole verity
A-way from the
H-earsay.

J-ust the truth suddenly comes, 
A-iming to show the reality; 
N-ever turn a blind mind, 
E-vade the deceit from enemy.

A-llow your life to keep
S-taying far from the lies; 
P-ristine word will do, 
A-s scales fall from your eyes.

Rugged Wind Waves Goodbye

R-ugged wind waves goodbye, 
H-aving faded into the night; 
O-nce the twilight ends, 
N-ew dawn sets things 
A-right. 

E-arly morn March thirtieth 
S-ees the break of day; 
C-rimson sun Thursday 
O-pens the sky without delay. 
B-eacon bathes your heart, 
A-s the cold chill passes by; 
L-ight warms your mind, rugged wind waves goodbye.

River of Tears

R-iver of tears that runs
H-as drowned many a heart; 
O-n the thirtieth of May, 
D-on't let your dream fall
A-part.

A-s you feel the pain inside, 
R-iver of tears overflows; 
I-n spite of the grief, 
B-liss blooms like a rose.
A-llow the sun to shine, after the rain disappears; 
S-mile with a glowing grin to dry the river of tears.

Remain Inside the Fold

R-emain inside the fold, 
H-andle your faith with care; 
E-vade the false religions
A-nd wrong ways everywhere.

C-hrist has built His Church, 
A-iming to save mankind; 
B-e firm and steadfast
I-n leaving the evil behind.
L-et the thirtieth of June
E-nhance the hope you hold; 
S-tay strong in truth and love, remain inside the fold.

Berry Picking At Night

Sometimes
At three AM
On my fourth redbull and my second coke
When the dumbass on the conveyor belt put the bin in backwards for the thirtieth time and I want to kill him

I watch the bugs gathered ‘round the lightbulb 
And think 
At least I’ve got more time than them.

Refrain From Making Mistake

R-efrain from making mistake, 
H-ighway of wrong is gray; 
O-nward to the right path, 
N-ever ever walk 
A-way. 

M-ake no mistake 
A-pril thirtieth Sunday; 
E-rrors come from the devil to let you go astray. 

E-arnestly learn to know the truth, 
B-ecause it won't let your heart break; 
O-pen your life to correct choice, refrain from making mistake.

A-s you dream of the glorious view;
N-o more crying time,
N-ew life is in store for

A-ims to make you stay;
B-elieving in the Almighty,
A-pril thirtieth Sunday.

N-ever lose your focus, reach the heavenly bliss.

Reach and Touch the Zenith

R-each and touch the zenith
O-ctober thirtieth day; 
Y-our moment has come as you get out of gray.

M-ake it high toward zenith
A-fter the rain has gone; 
N-ew morn that breaks
Z-ealously meets the dawn.
A-llow the beacon to rise, 
N-ow that you aim underneath; 
O-pen your wings to soar, reach and touch the zenith.
