I walk from work a smile upon my face
a busy shift, 'Emergency' the place.
Where sick and injured come in through the door
and we are always ready to care for.
Alarms are sounding, monitors beep, beep,
all beds are full, and to their needs we leap.
Check vital signs, the temp, pulse, and BP
take blood, a urine test, an ECG.
Put in an I.V. Cannula I will
if veins are difficult, it takes some skill.
Next, take them to Xray to have a scan
or, if their bladder's full offer a pan.
For pain, give medication, reassess?
but if they vomit, I'll clean up their mess.
For patient comfort always tops the list,
and to ensure this happens I'll assist.
When cold, a nice warm blanket brings a smile
sometimes I'll hold their hand a little while.
With reassuring voice allay their fears,
if they're upset then wipe away their tears.
Write up my notes including all I've done,
hand over to the next nurse one by one.
The hours seem to quickly run away
and soon my shift is finished for the day.
I'll say goodbye to patients in my care
be glad, that on this day I have been there.
I walk from work a smile upon my face
A busy shift, Emergency the place.
Adam’s apple screams
Bloody beware
Candy poisoning
Death in the air
Evil lurking by
Funny creepy laugh
Glowing in dark pines
Haunted Halloween path
Interesting scary movie
Jumping at the climax
Killer is carrying ruby
Lantern wearing eye patch
Making my skin crawl
Night
Onyx with delight
Phones all on pause
Quick to fight or flight
Red eyes because they’re tired
Still stuck watching
TV
Unfortunately desired
Vampire’s death is a thing
We love the Thriller video
Xray extra unique it hasn’t aged
You can have fun being scared you know
Zip my lips as I’d rather not be afraid
Valsa wrote a pithy prayer poem
That recalled my old Hindu man
As Jesus is a jealous Lord, groom
See John's Revelation. Yet each human
Must know how others see stars, moon ...
And I, new man through Holy Spirit say -
The sun is King, but God's deputy
In one of numerous provinces
That populate a universe, no longer lonely
ELOHIM, Creator-God, filled the sky with debris --
Let's make it "atmosphere" -- that can reflect
Light in so many spectra. Ours the visible
Spectrum ... But gamma, Xray, ultraviolet, radio ...
Remain to be seen, if we invented new eyes
- or a special pair of glasses for humans, earth guys!
The eligible for a female partner
Between the highly placed and a gardener;
Thirty years a massively supported age,
As one still doesn’t seem a sage,
Who wants to a union solemnize
And the honorable fun and sex officially recognize.
Maximally forty five years for any male to stop being bloody single,
His voice, strength or money to start arranging a marriage jingle.
Often of few worries, a lot of liberties exercising
And to a lifestyle of softer morals compromising;
No fathered babies to be humoring with toys,
A decided diversion of attention to other joys…
No infant to on its behalf bulging envelopes release,
No reckless nor fastidious wife to scold with ease.
A time and again experimentation with women
Of a life largely swayed by bad omen:
What he ‘d been snatching from ***********,
With the promiscuous posing in careless photography
The same practices this married counterparts had dropped behind
In pursuit of the mature lifestyle of the Non blind.

Xray
Your
Zest
.
If
you
could
choose just
one super power
would it be invisibility,
flying, maybe xray vision
or simply the ability to sleep
without questioning every
single decision that
you ever made
in your
life
?
.
Visualise, create, arise,
the thought behind a brow,
made solid if the thought does sniff,
a future in the now,
for thoughts be deeds that intercede,
and come to life somehow,
the idea spawn is taking form,
and generates the how.
I have been using "seeing" for 20 years :eg to shrink a bulging Aorta in my cousin Alice which did shrink on the xray....seeing works......Edgar Cayce said thoughts are deeds. and i believe and have great Faith...
Your nights taste milky
Your days shower me solar
And you come as Xray
You photograph my soul
Your light is a warm liquid
Your tears are my runway
In negative light
I follow your infrared laser
We fall in love in black and white
So tonight be my constellation
My devotion is written in the stars
That crown your ring
Dazzle me like Aurora..
I'm a lonely galaxy
I miss your emerald sky
You photograph my soul
Your light a warm liquid
Your tears are my runway
So I took off to your heart
Love is my rocket boost
Guided by your infrared
For nights so milky
The cool breeze of the solar wind
'Cos I cant hide my love
From your Xray
After the rigors of winter,
Buried by mountains of snow,
Counting the days until springtime,
Delighted to see winter go.
Emerging flowers entrance me,
Fields of daffodils brighten my day,
Gladly, I listen to bird song,
Happy to feel the sun's ray.
I welcome each sign of the springtime,
Just reacting with joy to its spell.
Kittens and puppies appearing,
Lambs, foals and new calves as well.
More birds are coming and staying.
Nests cover the branches of trees.
Odors, mysterious, surround me,
Perfuming the mild springtime breeze.
Quivers of arrows from Cupid
Reach all the young lovers in spring.
Spurring the heart of the young swain
To happily buying a ring.
Utmost beauty surrounds me,
Views through my window entrance.
Winter is now just a memory,
Xray vision unveils the spring dance.
Yearnings unnamed are the thing.
Zealously, I embrace the new spring.
Written 2/15/15
A deep hole fraying at the knot
Because the hole is in the universe
Cloudy depth deep over my head
Dying nature in till my world is out of proportion deep over my head
Elevating slipping lower till your covered deep over my head
Falling through hell deep over my head
Going deep into the jungle deep over my head
Hello world I’m in deep over my head
Joking falling killing deep over my head
Killed me deep over my head
Laughing as I died deep over my head
Murder I try to say deep over my head
Not a liar never deep over my head
Oh I am in limbo deep over my head
Popping like a balloon deep over my head
Que hora es I hear the person next to me yelling deep over my head
Rotting away falling in the maggots and dirt deep over my head
Slipping through threw the galaxy deep over my head
To fast deep over my head
Universe is collapsing deep over my head
Vast world. deep over my head
What has the world come to deep over my head
Xray vision closing in on the deep over my head thoughts
Zebra striped world. deep over my head
.Good Bye. deep over my head.
I have tried the visualization for 2o years, it worked to fix a broke back on myself,
which it 100% today....tried shrinking a bulging almost bursting aorta on my poor cousin Alice ...the xray said it shrunk twice by half an inch...
Imagination is a powerful tool, we have forgotten how to use!
When you get proof its more interesting:)
I do see the Lord in my mind and ask for people cures, eg my neuralgia which went immediately with a shudder as i saw the Christ, great faith or imagination???
God is reality for me, i have no doubt!
loves you
Don
Deep thought
reality sometimes lets you in,
thoughts are deeds, see em pass,
across the mind, what a blast,
without a hint of sin....
let no evil thought exude,
see your sister healthy dude,
see aorta shrinking bulge,
see it happen , me indulge,
cos it can be true,
xray says it do,
Worked on cousin Alice….
Link her face with trouble too,
See her getting better, blue,
Thoughts are deeds, the magic place,
Within your mind the interface,
The helper can be you!
Positivity IS our place….
Don Johnson
Thank you Joe Maverick….
I make this appeal,
to Mr. "Dictionary" guy!
I'm a little disturbed,
and I'll tell you why!
Words starting with "X",
are way far too few.
Xray and xylophone,
I can only name two!
Although X-words aren't called for,
too often, that's true,
when they are, it's disaster,
I don't mind telling you!
On behalf of all poets,
I'd like to suggest,
a way to correct this
that I think is best.
There's a whole bunch of "E" words,
we could use, don't you see.
All we need do,
is get rid of the "E"!
Now they'd be "X" words,
like xceed and xcite.
Xpand and xtreme,
which would make it alright!
There would be plenty of words left
starting with "E".
Also many more "X" words,
I'm sure you can see!
Well, that's my suggestion,
but I xpect you won't care!
I got to xpress what I thiink!
I feel better - SO THERE!
Me last hour
Unhappy guy, though I will die,
Soon be long forgotten,
Doesn’t really matter ,
Rotten cancer is the why.
They showed me the xray,
Me liver has it yes,
Bones are almost rotten,
With cancer’s sour caress.
Doctors say use radium,
I say piddle off or worse,
A few hevvy pain killers,
Look out here comes the hearse.
