Rights

Blatant disrespect is not a right
When another's freedom is transgressed

For to use your art to start a fight
Is like stepping down on the oppressed

And there the freedom draws a line
Cutting in what is called abuse

You have your rights and I have mine
Remember to put that art to good use.

Life Story

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.

Theocracy

Denial comes in handy
Responsibility is ugly

But the rule always stands
What comes up goes down.

What man sows, he reaps.
All good returns with good

In the end we come to grip
To where our actions stood.

Evil returns the poison
Corrupting the character

Robbing man of reason
And ushers in disaster.

Forgetting

Now comes the last goodbyes
The longing is no longer there
The sighing ceased and dry the eyes
Hearts now are free from love and care.

Words have emptied of their sweetness
Gazes are far and never meet
Blank looks that all speak of sadness
The promised future we now forfeit.

The stage is set for the forgetting
All things must end with time someday
Release the past with all forgiving
We tried to love but it's gone away.

Summer Breeze on My Face (Naani Form)

Summer breeze on my face
Touches like soft satin lace
Soothes like lingering melody
Brings back a memory.

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.

Rainbows (Cinquain)

Rainbows
Span endless sky
Through distant lands and seas
Colors connecting you and I
With peace.

Those Who Copy Murder Poetry

Unkind are those
Who disrespect
Their fellow writers' work,

They presuppose
We can't expect
That duplication lurks.

So with temerity
Their works will show
That titles are just 'copy'

They mock the art,
And refuse to grow
...Then murder Poetry.

A Heart After God

A heart that looks at God above
Is always filled within
By the purest color of His love
And not by the shallowness of skin.

A heart that dwells with God all day
Has room there for His Word to keep
It always beats in Love to pray
And give to Him all due worship.

A heart that rests in God will be
In comfort filled with inner Peace
Its songs of Joy eternally
Flow from the Presence that is His.

A heart that hopes in God endures
Times of loss, or tears, or strife.
It knows His promises are sure
Here in this world and after life.

'For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you; plans to give you a hope and a future.' (Jeremiah 29: 11)

Roots, Trees, and Fruits

A tree is known by its root
The source of its first life
A fruit is known by the tree
As a man is known through strife.

The root of a man is his family
The tree is the man that has grown-
The words that he writes in poetry
Show the rearing he has known.

Without You

Since you were gone
Each breath I take
Leaves me undone
As my heart breaks.

Deep despair
And cutting pain,
You are not there
I'm alone again.

Endless dying
Loss and torment,
Ceaseless crying -
My strength is spent.

Oh please return!
Each day I die,
Let your love burn,
New hope, for you and I.

A Call for the Youth (Cinquain)

Wake up
Grab your future!
Never let them ruin
Country, hopes, dreams, and family
Freedom!

'Teach us to number our days aright that we may gain
a heart of wisdom.'

Psalm 90: 12

Just When I needed You

Was it the twist of Fate
Or a wink of Destiny
Or the humor of fleeting Chance
That Love brought you to me?

It was a time of sadness
And this heart had so much pain
But you came and filled it with gladness
Yes, to love again was not in vain.

The second Love they say is best
Now I believe that is really true
And all my hurts were put to rest
For you came... just when I needed you!

I love you and thank you!

As I Close My Eyes I See You

Each moment never takes me away
For you always seem to be here with me
Though we are apart there is not a day
That Love has not bound us continually.

Even our thoughts they seem like one
Our hearts beating together too
From the rising to the setting sun
As I close my eyes I see you!

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.

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.'

His Treasured Possessions

Even in darkness
Light dawns for the upright
Though there be sadness
Hope is not far from sight.

The rivers may rage;
The waters may swallow,
'Be of good courage'
His Word told you so.

In your emptiness
Hear well and be still -
Trust in His Kindness
Believe in His good Will.

For the God Who called you
He can never lie,
We're His Treasured Possessions
And that is YOU and I.

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.

A Man Reaps What He Sows

Careless intent reaps much discord
And many a time, it harvests offense

A bitter root grows from our words
As the wounds it cuts are truly immense.

And God will not be mocked
A man shall reap all that he sows

Man's words be weighed the Good it lacked
For God does hear and knows.
