The Tome of Fate
In halls of stone where echoes weep.. Beneath the earth, the secrets sleep. A tome of fate, with binding black.. Scrawled in blood.. no turning back. A thousand hands have turned its page.. Kings and slaves, the fool, the sage. Each name inscribed, their doom foretold.. In ink of fire and wax of...

Premium Member Familiarity
Familiarity Familiar as an old book, but priceless. Worn and frayed like, an ancient tome. Pages bent and torn, heavily perused. Annotated musings scribbled bring back memories.

Premium Member Life, Tome of Fairy Tale
When the storm of sorrow surges with dark rain, the banks of mind break, eroded by dense despair, the river of affliction in full flood doesn’t spare the broken heart drowning in the dungeon of pain. In the sleepless high noon of the nostalgic night I go out soaking the shadow of the crowned sky, satiated in silver shower on moon...

Wherever
WHEREVER. Wherever, you go I pray you always remember; My unending concern and deepest, Truest desires for you. I know you may forget - To the cruel hands of time My long lost name, But, still i hope you remember always The sweet and lingering feelings My name once denotes, The truest intentions I have for you. I hope you remember my smile, Because I still see...

Words Said and Indited When a Perusal of a Scriptural Tome Loses Its Momentum
The poetical books are nearly, by me, complete; Next follows those once-furled, parchmentlike Scribal tablets on which were calligraphically Indited the books classified as Naught but "prophetical"- After the major and minor scribes, The authors of which, and those of the first grouping of the Newer set of scriptural books: Those of the evangelical order; The momentum engendered by the...

Meet sad or mad or even bad, Yes to fond cheer as truth marks clear, Taste treat most glad with joy not fad, Reach far or near that touch most dear; Empty your mind of harsh and coarse, Ask to be true in kind and fact; See that you find love in times hoarse, Urge ample dues to live fine act; Reap with...
