A Short Poem Like Ogden's

Perhaps because
Of too high taxes
A man dropped his plane
At the IRS.

Blackberry Blue

A distinct color
Is blackberry blue
Its blackness shaded
In silvery shine
Like Bahrain pearls
In deepest hue
Light changes it
Like sweet dark wine.

The Joker is Blind

Blindness is very common
Particularly with views
And those with myopic vision
Well, they are excused.

Obviously they're unaware
Of sane platitudes
Their philosophies they share
With some attitude!

Like a doctor who explains
How to repair a plane
Blind and myopic men
Are intellectually insane.

A myriad views laid out
Analyzed, they're not logical-
It makes one want to shout
'You are nothing but comical! '

On second thought, however
It makes the net really fun
For this blind myopic joker
Brings laughs to everyone.

High School

High school days used to be fun
With friends and crushes and all
But now the teacher fires a gun
And shoots at will without a call.

High school now is never the same
Gangs and drugs proliferate
Life and future are just some game
Kids play and lose at a growing rate.

Words Become Lifestyles

Words make the man
And reflect what his heart contains

Thoughts become words
And when spoken they remain

Words that are repeated
Become habits in the end

Habits formed become lifestyles
That later may be hard to amend.

Crossing My Sea

I am crossing my red sea
And the waters are high
They're over and above me
And they make me cry.

The burdens are heavy
Gargantuan tasks
The challenges many
More than I can ask.

The staff that You gave me
Is this little pen
For writing is surely
What You intend.

I am crossing my red sea
And my hopes will be bright
As long as You're with me
My life is alright.

My needs You do know
As I journey across
I will trust You and so
I will not suffer loss.

Hold my hand in this sea
Many times I will stumble
Let me reach victory
For I know You are able!

'I love You, O Lord, my Strength.'
Psalm 18: 1

Communication

Communication is touching
Another with sincerity
Not just with verbal teaching
Conversing absently.
It is the human spirit
That reaches forth with care
Words so laden with it
In love and knowledge share.
Crossing space and distance
Communication frees
It is the golden chance
For friendship and for peace.

Words of Grace

Words that uplift another
Are words God blessed with grace

They leave the hearer feeling better
And show respect for the human race.

Words, not curses, bear eternal fruit
And multiply the goodness in life

These words should then be our pursuit
Not cursing words that will cause strife.

Just One Wish

I have but one wish and it is this:
That a ship of dreams will one day take me
To where you are and there to kiss
Each other in love, so affectionately.

To finally gaze in your loving eyes
To hold you in a sweet tender embrace
And to feel my heartbeat suddenly rise
As I see the love shown there in your face.

I have this one wish and I hope it's granted
That together we will be and remain that way,
There's nothing in this world I have ever wanted
Than to be with you Dearest, for all my days!

To Hope is life's necessity
To dream is Freedom sought,

Each day is Opportunity
Another step to Growth.

To Love is truly caring
Affection pure and good

And Faith in God believing
His Grace is spirit food.

To try again is Courage
And to work is Dignity

Thus recorded in our page
This is our Life Story.

A Love Letter

Hello, I hope that you are well
Since we said our last goodbye
I miss you so much, you can tell
I have not forgotten, though I try.

Things have not changed, that is true
And though you have moved on today
My love remains, nothing I can do
It always shows, no matter what I say.

So you have someone else - it's alright.
Letting you go is really for the best.
To hold on to you- yes, I have no right
To leave you is to give myself due rest.

So Dearest, take care and be happy
I have memories when you were mine,
I just wrote this short note to sincerely
Wish you the best...Happy Valentine!

What A Friend Is

What is a friend?

One who stands with you
Through all the good and bad
Support you all the way through
Be there when you are sad.

One who can forgive
With whom you don't pretend
Though you have no wealth to give
He is always a true friend.

But when mistakes you make
He's ready with correction
He may hurt but not forsake
And will show the right direction

A friend has 'agape' love
You can always be who you are
He is a gift from God above
His loyalty goes very far.

'Wounds from a friend can be trusted,
but an enemy multiplies kisses.'

Between indecision and ambivalence
In passing Time

My Valentine Is Blue

The day of Hearts approaching
And you, I will be missing

That Valentine card is still here
Catching my every tear.

For another love had taken
And left me lonely and forsaken

Words on cards are never true
My Valentine isn't red... but blue.

If only words can deliver
This card's beloved Sender

What a great day Valentine!
Same as last year -

when you were mine.

Wishful Dreams

In dreams persistently you are
A present vision, ever haunting

At night like a brilliant distant star
The sight of you fills me with longing.

You call my name there in my dreams
Embraced I am in fleeting shadows

You hold my hand like fading moonbeams
But you're not there in my tomorrows.

If life could be lived in wishful dreams
No waking up in the brightness of sun

Together we will be forever it seems
Of days and of parting... there will be none.

Ink Bottle of Life

The pain and sorrows in life's hurdle
Are all contained in bottled record.
For our Experience is the ink bottle
Where the dipped pen draws many words.

The souce of writers' inspirations
From it the passion ink flows through
To weave the lines and compositions
Of life and loves that we once knew.

'He who pursues righteousness and love, finds life, prosperity, and honor.'

Proverbs 21: 21

Burning Words Cut Love Cords

Weighed down
By burning words

They sound
Like angry swords

Slain hearts
Now lie in discord

Depart...
And cut Love cords.

Empty Cans

The foolish man speaks
With the loudest voice
Like little empty cans
That make the most noise.

Those who are hollow,
No wisdom to be found
But full vessels we know
Can silence their own sound.

The more the words
The less, the meaning-
For silence accords
A deeper understanding.

'Silent waters run deep.'

'A fool multiplies words.'

'When words are many, sin is not absent.'

In Him There is No Fear

When oceans move to swallow
And mountains slide to bury
And all don't know just where to go
When Death's near you and me.

When winter cold comes killing
And land breaks open wide
In Him we find there is no fearing
The Lord our God is by our side.

Guilt's Toy

A chicken does not lay a chick,
It lays an egg.
A cartooned heart can never beat
Though it is red.
A dozen bells grouped up
Can never be a gong
And sounds mixed just enough
Can never birth a song.
Doves that fly to many places
Do not make each landing 'home'
Copied titles and some phrases
Cannot be woven to a 'poem'
Words and verses when stolen
May give a moment's joy
But mark this truth that in the end
That messed up life is Guilt's own toy.
