Mighty Oak of a friend
There was an oak tree alongside of me, beside my youth and windows. Curious wonders frolicked it's autumn leaves, as I dreamt of tricycles upon it's crimson and aurous pillows. I asked it's name and friends we became, to the winds and earth he told. An old tire was hung, songs was sung as he said.. "Smile for me and all you need do is take hold."
Beneath it's green, initialled hearts on bark, did first kiss abound and sound. In a mid of day, there it was through happy leaves, that summers love was found.
Acorns amongst tiny feet, fallen gifts for my children's treasures,...

Today XVIII
Today,
he started the day
listing his lies and his truths...
Nothing complicated or intricate;
two columns.
One for lies, the other for truths...
Thought it better to start with the latter.
The obvious, the oft repeated,
the constants he could not deny,
like... Yes, like... Maybe, like...
Probing doubts crawled in...
Truths, or poses, pretensions, claims,
automated responses, statements and spins?
Overburdened and overwhelmed
to the first column he returned...
Best to list them in...

writing poetry....
deep rooted pain; dissatisfaction with an appetite to maintain; waves that ripple in the brain; a temporary ounce of peace to gain;
a summer or spring between us aren't viewed the same; exterior things temporarely quiets a disturbed brain; what am I really saying;
I'd love an actual end to take place;
life as one knows it disguises a true face; writing stems from a space, of fallen grace....
I think poetry; I think bare feet, and worn clothes; I think the world's weight and...

Attention Span
I guess there was no cat up on that tree
Kitty fled, so now there is no more need...
Oh well
His fixation is now barking up another
It promises a feline, unlike the other 🐕
Woof Woof!

BUT STILL A WOLF
BUT STILL A WOLF
A new_born wolf was nursed by a tender sheep
and grew up a constant love to all their type.
When he got fully grown, he loved to live
with that who helped him in life to survive.
Two rams who saw him faithful to their herd
spoke kindly with him, but they were afraid
of his sharp teeth and his long, fearful claws
that could tear them to pieces in hot rows.
The poor wolf tried his best to show his love.
He warded off attacks, fierce wolves could shove.
He faced great danger just to gain their trust,
and get...

Oh Stevie's Vision
Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat, drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering
What you had, And what you lost
And what you had, And what you lost"
Ruins of ancient civilizations
Tell many stories
Lovers, gamblers, dictators, downfalls and their glories
Peace agents and those with a thirst for blood
Secrets that even today no one wants...
You say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should

But listen carefully to the sound

What you had, And what you lost
And what you had, And what you lost"
Ruins of ancient civilizations
Tell many stories
Lovers, gamblers, dictators, downfalls and their glories
Peace agents and those with a thirst for blood
Secrets that even today no one wants...

sojourner
the winds blew in the hollow places
awakening my senses
I came alive to the truth of the universes
I was ushered into the deserts
where I had visions of what was intended
a life's path I would travel
not alone but with many sojourners of this universe
we came on a light beam
into this dimension
to exchange sacred knowledge with one another
to the highest peaks to the lowest valleys
we were meant to gather information
about what it is to be human

Some Zed`s
I though I would take some Zed's
Have a small doze and rest my head
But my stomach felt upset
It was the zucchini and zoysia soup
Dipped crisp bread of zwieback in the gloop
I was quite ill, felt quite grim
My being floating like a zeppelin
Not the zenith of the day
The hospital was in Mesopotamia
A ziggart mostly made of clay
The doctors prescribed tincture of zinc
So bitter that it made me wince
My head it swam. blue zinnias sprout
Fantasies of alphabet compete and shout
A to Z the poetry that were announced ...

The Fall of the Chess Monkey*
The Fall of the Chess Monkey*
(Nine of 30 -- Official DUP NaPo/GloPoWrimo 2019)
Settled down for 4 hrs of chess
2 for study; 2 for play
When an email came from the Sky
out of nowhere, I say!
*
Innocently, I gave her all the time
She needed to heal.
This took the monkey
off my back for the day.

Hidden Cabin
Wearily she walked along
The coastal path ,alone
She hoped to find a hostel
For a tempory home
This was a lonely piece of shore
With sandy beach deserted
Then she spied a wooden hut
Shelter; she was elated.
The door opend easily
The inside had a bed
This would be an ideal spot
To rest and lay her head.
Along came another girl
Seeking shelter for the night
Sure that they could share the bed
The prospect looked bright
They soon became friends,
Decided to go and swim
Skinny dipping...
