Poetry Knows

Poetry Knows

Where poet goes
when poet needs
A line of prose

Which word comes best 
on top of rest 
before its born 
in womb of next

Where uncooked prose
in little groves
sits in wait 
by little stoves  

Poetry screams 
in pains of birth
For now as words 
it now has worth
 
it likes
it would
it rather be
before its time
not known to me

Where life songs sing in melody
and pollinate the what will be

God Rocks Jesus Rolls

Time Yawns.


 The sun goes down, sunny side up.

 My thoughts, shallow and unrefined delight in their new found depth.

 The moon begins to bloom. Numbered stars take
 their place in the countless skies. 
There is a serenity I have received that I cannot change. It is a different kind of wisdom. It knows the difference.

 

God Rocks. Jesus Rolls


The train roars. Time Rumbles. 

Night awakes. Rested and well fed it stretches into the light. 


Shade delights in its own conception. Newborn shadows, suckle on the night. 


Temptation seizes me. Prayer returns the volley.

Ice cubes skinny dip in glasses. They sit at a chair less table.

Painted walls procrastinate at the corner. 


Skipped beats gather at the heart. 


Motes conspire to dust.
A slick polished thought gets waxed.
 Outside a lazy droopy wind falls to the ground.
 

Rain gathers in trees.

 A rainbow shatters the sky. 

Dawn breaks, broke.


The sun also rises. Over easy.

Out On High

I have run out of high
  
       I begin to crawl
  the bottom was my destination
     it was what I desired 
    as it was common to man
      for it I prepared

       of it I now let go
  
      Set free of death
       It has no wings
      Where I am headed it cannot follow

        Celestial Clydesdales gallop hard into the distance
              in fertile space
     Where the light of stars has yet to shine
              in space untilled
         where darkness has no purpose
            they prepare the way
      they are the essence of the unknown

 there in the secret place where there are no secrets
            there am I fully known 
 
   It is here where the armor of God was made 
         deep in the womb on creation
    where time knows no beginning and has no end

    in the court of endurance shall I watch
       prayers as they turn into praises 
       praises as they turn into worship
        worship as it turns into grace
 
              I run out on high 
       Here now in the mist of eternity 
                   I wait
               adorned in grace
                     encircled by mercy
    With my God 
                  For my God
                          From now
          Till the day after forever

Poeatree

Poeatree

I Poet climbs in Poeatree
to far up high
where verse is free
And prose it buds 
on thinks and thoughts
right before as fruits their sought

I poet sits just like the dew
that formed on Poetry that’s new
between his thoughts and what I think 
just like the red mixed up in pink

I Climb back down for time permits 
no more of this poetic fit
I'll pick back up
I knows its true
When Poetry next
 demands its due

First Time In Forever

For the first time in forever 
on my knees I stand tall
and heed the call of Jesus 
the Sheppard of all lords.

He's the God who walked on water
some days changed it to wine
who fed five thousand people 
with food enough for five

in this moment of forever
upon my knees,tall,I pray
and heed the call of Jesus
With the glory due his name

from the rivers to the oceans
from the mountains to the sky 
where the angels sit and listen 
as we praise your name on high 

amazing is your thunder
Your lightning, graceful-riegns 
they chase each other endlessly
forever in your day

I find no greater pleasure 
than pleasing you today
and with the angels cry out Jesus
in our hearts always stay

as my prayers chase your glory
a knee mail I send today
prepare for me a mansion 
for I'm coming home to stay


so I really hear more as a song any idea where such things go please comment. thanks 
and I have no idea what the form box is all about. its all prose to me
