Just pondering over the prospect of a taxpayer funded, low budget and tripartite monarchical state funeral!
By Stanley Collymore
Brexit, itself asininely followed
by an involuntary taxpayers
funded Jubilee very daftly

Middle Ages feudalism quite simply
in this a vilely vaunted enlightened
and clearly, supposedly democratic
21st Century Britain and attendant

actually over the top, vainglorious
Coronation that, obviously, for me
objectively prompts this pertinent
question: with all that media faux
hysteria and concern really about

Death!!
One by one, they disappear from your life.
Mom or dad, husband or wife..
Gramma or papa, you uncle or aunt .
You try to get thru it but at first you just can't.
A brother or sister, someone you adore,
A pastor, a teacher. The old lady next door.
A small child ,a mentor, a lifelong friend...
it just keeps going an going and when does it end?
Yeah I know that its just part of life....
One day your married , husband n wife..
The next yoir a widow and your all on your own.
No reason or warning ...u wake...

Only Words
Clean up your heart , then come down to clean the dirty streets.
You will never give what you don't have, so do not preach the good word,
people would never believe you, "silence is a mute adviser.."
Your garden is stark torrid, you only grow cactus and thorns,
So do not expect to see flowers blooming after what you sowed.
From Nature, stem every emotion, every thought and every creation,
The loss of any one of them, will make you emotionally unbalanced,
a shallow thinker, and a mediocre...

Faith looks Forward
There once was a woman
With a heart as pure as gold
She had beautiful eyes
A contagious laugh
And her smile was something to behold!
She went through life
Loving and naive
Fell in love with a man with tricks up his sleeve
He was drawn to her light
And to her pure energy
But in the end,
This “love” would be her undoing.
The man was void.
He could never have enough.
So she gave her all to him
In the name of love.
She couldn’t have known,
But she would never measure up, ...

Landscape '' Paysage ''
Noon time, the star in the sky burning at zenith
The deep azure, was radiant with fiery heat
Laid on the skyline, its dome calm and serene
The yonder river, slowly ran on the grey scene
From hillsides to dales and back from dales to hillsides
Green fields or pale extend their furrows long and wide
And on the shady slopes of the plains that lay near
The forest cast its oaks and beeches in sight clear
O Spring ! alas, 'tis not of your joyful hues
It is Summer's ripe time smiling with fertile news
...

Box Of Puppies
Good morning Del. How you doing lover?
It sucks that you have to work today. Yet it's cool, that you're working the holiday so that you have an extra day when you come visit again. Kinda like how I'm working tomorrow, whether I'm over this flu or not.
Isn't modern technology great? Our two video calls for celebrating New Year's last night. Once for my midnight and then for yours an hour later. We hung in there! I knew you had to work today. And yeah, my flu (a cold, covid, the lung plague, whatever it is) had me a little blah. Thank god for our resilience and humor! ...

Harvest Of The Future Seed
The new year around the corner
The last turn of month December
All that was done and what was told
Only dust within memories' hold
Is there a thing to remember ?
If any pleasure does remain
Dreams from janury to december
I wake up with nothing to gain
Just yesteryear, celebrated my fifty
Today,i can see whites on my head
I fear i would never make seventy
When i share an epitaph among the dead
What is still in my life is plenty
I can...

The Little Bird Of The Wild Forest
A morning walk in the pine forest, as everything was ripe for the feet to be stretched and the mind to be swept clean, as some nights are such dark that all the world's lights are not enough to illuminate its abyssal glooms.
A journey along the upward track,left by morning shepherds, aiming to pump a new feeling into the tired heart,utterly drained of its emotional slang and truthful glossary, as the brain was a few inches to collapse....
The morning mist like a veiled face, gives way only to bright glistening pearly dots that peep,thick and laden with heavy night,...

2024
The year of twenty twenty-four is near
and with it comes a hope for better days.
A time to heal the wounds of yesteryear
and face the future in a brighter gaze
But what will be the challenges ahead?
What trials and tribulations will we face?
Will we be able to overcome the dread
that lingers from the past and leaves a trace?
In nineteen twenty-four, a year of change.
Two men of different fates and different lands:
One breathed his last, the other saw the light
one left a legacy, the other began his fight.

a tree in love
A tree in love
By the old road, before it meets a widened way
in a nearby stands two trees close together
we can see they are related
yes, mother and daughter
The mother, although taller, leans on her daughter
They are a refugee from a forest fire which they survived
only to get the news all trees had to be chopped down
to give space for a golf course.
A night after much rain had made the soil soft, they got the roots up and moved along the land,
near the road
The hope was to meet a group of woods and seek sanctuary, but now, an...

Embers of Solitude
In the stillness of the hills, where solitude resides,
I find myself alone, where darkness gently hides.
The holidays have arrived, a season meant to share,
Yet I'm left with emptiness, a heart burdened with despair.
My oldest daughter, raising a family of her own,
Her joys and laughter now in a world apart, unknown.
The second oldest, distant and detached it seems,
Leaving behind moments cherished, like fragmented dreams.
The boys, with their mother, embracing a new start,
Creating memories anew, a family's beating heart.
But in...

Poetry, Sickness and Sanity
'If sickness were poetry''
We, mortal Beings, with perpetual spirits, have we, but one earthly life to live,
a good word to give, and many sufferings to receive..
Have we but only rhyming lines, a desperate feeling and a fleeing time to catch the life that is running away..between our fingers ..
The threads we weave for a restful feeling, for a moment of peace,
for an evasion into bliss, will cloth the body we discard,when death rings its toll, and the hours stop to roll.... ...
