Wait for the Light

Down the heavens, thru the clouds,
across the winds that churn the night,
the velvet darkness pins the sky
with stars of a silvern light.

At a gallop in the dark, the light rays come,
first the fast, then behind come the slow.
They both reach the eye at slight different times
and a Twinkle is their impacts aglow.

The man was a well-known souse.
A policeman took him to his house.

It was decided not to put him in jail;
still the drunk started to rant and rail.
As soon as he opened his front door,
out poured at least five dogs or more.

The dogs were ferocious in their assault.
The policeman backed away as he fought,
until he made it to safety in his patrol car.
Then he drove to the ER,... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (LaHarry) http://friendlymusings.yuku.com/topic/4540 Wed, 04 Jan 2006 12:58:57 GMT http://friendlymusings.yuku.com/topic/4539/t/Snow.html Snow hisses in the silence

Shimmering plants are glossed by thee.

slumber in mystic fields of feathers;
twisting, turning, thrashing virtues
tossed to breezes of desirous sway.

Kisses smother my heart as salve
revives wounds; each nuzzled tryst
quickens lucidity's false promise,
deaf to an inner conscious so needy.

my soul was shackled, night and day.
No food or bread, nutrition lacked,
until my window shades were cracked.

Sunshined visions, complete with shades,
shield me from night's clever charades.
Explosive brilliance surrounds with taste,
precious moments I shall not waste.

One hand offered with kindred acclaim,

open-legged stance
white puff locomotive breaths
back ripples; shoulders stretch and pull
stomach tightens, diaphragm sets
long arc of the iron head
leaning toward the blow
The maul descends
blade biting
air releases; bellowed grunt
driving clean through
the halves ring
fly off into the night on either side
Heat
where you live:

Many will die at this place.
Worry rides on many a face.

The soldiers prepare themselves.
Thoughts of home each shelves.
The officers bark out commands.
Doing your duty the day demands.

The warriors all form into ranks.
Many stand on river Styxs banks.
Helmets and armor are adjusted.
Their weapons must now be trusted.

Beneath my sadness and heartfelt woe
Let lifes footsteps take me to the place,
Where only those whove loved may go.
Fleeting are the memories of her sweet face.

The paths we walk, stumble and stray.
The dreams we dream, now lost and gone,
In the lands were only lovers stay
leaving only those memories to rest upon.

The soft and velvet whisper of her breath
did brush against my soul so tenderly.
In sweet and soft surrender did I weep,
and wished that I might love her desperately.

In voice, so pure and bright, her spirit sang,
my heart ablaze with joy in brilliance blessed,
rejoiced to hear her heavnly harp resound
in tone so dulcet, pure, of love possessed.
