Premium Member Sing A New Song written Mrs Yolanda Joy Nicholsen

Sing a new song the divineness 
of it all the rapture of the coming 
hour the sheer need for abundance 
created so bountiful throughout 
this wondrous beauty a subtleness
awakening mere virtue while the 
mild mannerism moves in delightful
colorful hues dancing between glorious 
stain glass windows while weeping 
willow trees sway cardinals perch 
as the eagle soars the sky a wonderful 
hymn springs forth beckoning my soul 
as fear anxiety sadness sorrow drowns 
my soul sings loudly over the mountaintop 
I hardly recognizes her today assumption 
the beauty within shines as warmth 
compassion kindness blossom's in the 
hearts and minds of on lookers flowers 
bloom as I stroll pass wisdom shakes  
emptiness is mortified by my edification
a proud peacock absorbs my purity 
I am angelically lifted by harmonic 
melodies vibrantly shaking my tail 
feather simply singing my new song

D ivided - feelings, kids and the lesser things.
I nk blots of dragons and broken mirrors.
V acant walls and chairs. 
O bituary for two on display.

E ddying for a time, then healing.

Phat Tuesday's

With an Ovation of peers and fans
he stood and smiled."non Best:but
me" he said looking at those who
wished to dethrone him. He than
promised every person to the right
of him a tommorrow. He said that
there defeat might cause them
depression and those that would regress
to vinacat there yesterdays might that
same vinadation allow him to reclaim
that which he would
reearn. He swore by the Genius of his
mangment and and praised those who
beleived in C4H2L. ( the formula of success).
No fool in Literary matters: "might the book
be witten that the scribers wish to write"! The
challenger before me shall meet defeat.One 
most make the podium; one most walk up to 
the stage to perform main eventers and paper geeks.
The trophy represents the champion. Challengers beware!
Digital Takeover! Coda! Coda! Coda!

Premium Member Ode To My Soul Love Witten Heart-

So witten written heart 
Complicated electric sparks, start 
Pulsating vibrant sparking clouds lonely 
Mindset embellished with my eyes I see
I see you with my eyes I spy
Your skin I touch you with my mind
I breath as such tasting you
 I think often of just you
O' oh!  Ode,  to my soul witten heart
Oh, I do

Left to right off my feet
In comfort I speak, sweets

Crazy Little Kitten

I have a crazy little kitten
That had lost it’s mitten
That I had knitten
Near that witten
Now it’s very sad and smitten!

You Would Not Want To Be Me

I have never ever
Witten such a beautiful love note
Before
I have never ever
Being ungrateful
To someone
Who has given me so much

Yet my tears keeps falling
Although I know why
Yet my strength keeps manifesting
Although I am left unfulfilled
Yet my love for the one keeps growing
Although I do not feel the happiness it brings
Yet I keep on seeking
Although I am left unappreciated
Yet I feel the need
Although it keeps on moving away

I have never ever
Pretended to love
Before
I have never ever
Being envies
Pretend to be someone else
I have always been myself

Remembering

REMEMBERING  ??

9/8/20. (Witten for Michele Embry Madison
                 In memory of our dearestfriend Charlie Cooper)

There are tears
Sitting at the outside
Corners of our eyes, grown cool now.
They do not fall.
They do not dry.
There are tears with histories
Living on in hearts,
Aside thoughts
Making poems, trying
To use ink to quell pain.

There are tears
In hidden vaults, lost in minds.
They do not escape, do not leave,
Nor evaporate.
The verses of tears
Are lines like our lines, forever,
Waiting to be written,
Word by word
From the beginning, but
The tears, still, do not dry.

*****.    *****.    *****.    *****

Premium Member If Only

We can only hold on to... 
                     one blessing at a time.
                                  If only...oh, if only
                                       we could possess...
                                                              both!
Just imagine...
      having the strength 
                             of youth                     
                                   and wisdom 
                                             of old age!

Premium Member Poets of All Nations Unite

Small we stand large with poetry and verse write about sun and sheer darkness
       
Rainfall comets and tides as a micro-cosmos in a world that lacks infinite words

Some throw in science philosophy intimate narrative disclose heartache or joy

We share love faith hope reason and feelings and take comfort in pencil and ink



A lotus flower evolves on the page with a fig tree or a violet rose covered in ivy

Spiders weave webs on dinosaurs’ spikes shielding honesty while the globe spins

Icarus melts as a Phoenix rises from vanishing ashes dispersed by Pegasus wings

A Unicorn smiles kindly for a Dragon to rest in the soul of our intricate minds


Embracing life’s vagary disentangling fallacies and truths we point to them both

Impermanent and miniscule we are part of a Universe and speak out for freedom

Premium Member Inside Church Is a Must

Calling Church means Catholic with a capital “C”
There is a saying that “People outside Church has no salvation”
Eternal God is not that mean
Eternal God loves people

In heaven there is a cell where Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults are held
Some people are  scaring other people
Other people will be at rage
Other churches believes their doctrines

The doctrines are given by the church of their parents
These parents got blinded with the universal truth
Parents will take their children to their church
These children believes the doctrine they learned

Children should grew up and know the Universal Truth
Being inside Church is a must

Premium Member Missing You

I had witten this piece some time ago
For Who ? now I know.........

Missing You 

It's a funny strange thing
When you're not around
Like the lack of a smile 
On a circus clown

Like a ferris wheel
With all empty seats
Or a candied apple
More tart than sweet

Or a merry-go-round
That looks kind of scary
Or that huge prize teddy
To big to carry

Like an amusement park
On a winters day
And as long as you're gone
That's the way it will stay

Today Is Christmas

Ring
frosty
bells...
your sound
can spread joy!
Remind
all...
today
is Christmas! 
Snow has fallen...
no snowman!
Tell kids
to
build one...
before stars
appear
and 
share their
glee!
