Heart

 things are different without you
things are lonely what can I do?
believing in God is a start
believing in you has a heart?

Let Us Go Pro

 'cuz I said so
please don't go now
I want to know
let us go pro

UFOs

to the UFOs in our hearts,
you keep on beating strong thus;
and though you have never been seen,
you will stay long among us

Harry Belafonte was a great singer.
elephantitis is a disease!

Things Only Form

 creation's there,
it may be old;
things only form,
if truth be told

Wishing Upon a Star

I'd upon a star

And what would I wish?

A people afar

Like whirling dervish!

Philosophy

 philosophy depends.

it deepens thought to ends;

and though it rules query,

it answers verily

Sage

warriors are rife,

yet enter the stage --

be above the knife,

and do not enrage --

simplify your life,

your neighbors engage --

be honest, no strife,

so be a good sage.

Photographs

 we know color, but

do we know

black and white?


reality does show, but

sight brings out

Dinner Song

the sun won't shine,

the moon gloweth,

I'm ready to dine,

you cook knoweth?


I have some veal,

you know howeth?

'tis handsome meal,

you cook knoweth?


how the moon fades,

the sun sheweth,

the table made,

you cook knoweth?


I have more wine,

it doth floweth,

I'm ready to dine,

you cook knoweth?

Eyeing the Chicken

hungry son sports a stomach

for his work-worn mom

Until We Meet Again

 'till we meet again, friend,

until we see His face

'till our days are finished,

until we seek his place


darkness may befall us,

that we know 'till won

'til we see each other,

until we see the Son


Morning

 Rooster as announcing dawn,

Wanting deer on my lawn


Front door as stretching wide,

Sunshine warming my pride


Clouds as breaking apart,

Drying dew on my cart


Design of a brand new day,

Great things will come my way


Alert

 storm cloud approaching,

getting tall and wide

o, anvil top drawing near,

in the blue abide

lightining striking closer,

thunder it won't hide

o, rain will surely find this way,

falling 'neath its tide


Afternoon

 bicycle, on the pedals,

making my way on my feet

bicycle, on the frame,

making my way is a treat

bicycle, on the tires,

making my way down the street

bicycle, on the chain,

making my way in the heat

bicycle, on the wheels

making my way to supper's seat

Night

 Burns on the night!

Tinkering flight,

Lingering fright,

Turns on the light!

Ode to Chick Corea

 an inspiration, from day one,

creative to the very end

a work, that spanned ages,

and for every mend

and goodness, he was human,

to the very core

his art, will be imperious,

his music to be lore

Book

 complete fixation.

intractable fashion...

The Narrow Road

 is there a path in life you take?

there is a star in Bethlehem...

the alone are in an authority,

everyone is in a rebellion,

but the narrow road leads to heaven

Sleep

 better get your books on

better let your brain ignite

better lay your head upon

better, say, sleep at night


Saturday, March 13, 2021

Read!

 better get in on your book

it will get you off the hook

until your neck starts to crook

again, go ahead and look

and then, read it in your nook

Things

 accept the things that can

ban the things you want

only the things you ban

are the things that can't

     all the things cthat aid

     are the things well paid

Dessert

these sugary sweets,

eats with a breeze,

ease and comfort,

for the very beast!

Sleepy Writer

an iffy adherence, to the page,

of the point, that's from a pen,

is just, what the doctor ordered,

to make a writer, fall asleep, again

Rope Tie/ Tie Rope

Rope Tie
O, the ties that bind us.
A tie is a rope, a rope needs to tie.
This is a working tie.  The rope is useful.
Do not wear it for anything that's marine oriented.
Ties are famous because they look nice.
Do not wear a rope.  A tie is much more useful as clothing.
I will favor a tie to a rope; let a rope do its job.  Useful!
Dock our boat with ropes to see it.  Useful!

Fine Books

The fine book, is...
The wine of bliss

The covers, the pages
The wonders of the ages
The breath, of pledge
The breadth of knowledge...

In all proper cases,
In detail it should,
In perfection it could.

Come what may,

Love You

Humility is to be humble...
meekness is never shy.
Moments with God alone
Has never ended in why.

Small is still a virtue...
less is but more to God.
Moments with you alone
is still a love for you.

Our God

     In the ugliest of weather
there's a flying feather

     In the darkest of night
there's a tasty delight

     In the deepest of valleys
there's a river rally

     In the blur of eyesight
there's our God, a light

Plastic

of all the things in our world,
plastic takes the cake!
plastic trees in houses,
plastic rakes,
plastic glasses,
plastic art for God's sake!
of all the things we own,
plastic's what we've sown.

Tennis Lament

He stands with a swing,
It's sure to come back...
It goes to the corner
And I then just hack...

He then gets to smash,
It's sure to bounce high...
It goes to the far line
And I then just sigh...

He is good dear pro,
It's sure he'll win big...
It goes so to the end
And I then just rig...

He goes on as planned,
It's sure to end quick...
It goes to a 6-0
And I then just tick...
