O' My Dear Perceptional Pencil How can I deny My love, Without you  I cannot write nor reply I look for you all the time I hold you to even draw a line I move you to form new words I keep you and hold you close I smile to myself when I see you lie And if I ever lose you I cry,  O' My Precious Personal Pencil Without you I cannot rely, I know not where and when the words may fly' O' The writing and the written world   You  gracefully elegantly unfold; Making it possible for all tales untold To see the myths legends fables of old And the note' the words of gold In silver bronze embossed or bold You make me feel warm in the cold O' Most  Dear Precious  Pencil under my pillow you sleep where from time to time I peep you are there, then I am at peace I Have you, I buy, to hold, to keep, you can n...

~ NAPOWRIMO ~ Day 5 ~ A 'Golden Shovel' ~ Can Oceans Suffice ? ~

Image
Today I challenge you to write a “golden shovel.” This form was invented by Terrance Hayes in his poem, The Golden Shovel. Inspired by poem 'Fire and Ice' by Robert Frost                                    Can Oceans Suffice?                                         vast fluid expanses filled against fire touching at the poles masses of ice ascension to purity blocked by desire  hopes are for heaven away from hell fire spite kills the spirit each day not once but twice greed anger sloth pride hate avoid these spread love it is not too late why did the Lord create oceans more than lands because He knew a loving human heart would like the deep oceans suffice.

In Response to ~ NAPOWRIMO ~ 2014 ~ BIBLIOMANCY ORACLE ~ O Heart Thou Must Beat ~

Image
Nothing worse than discarded hopes Butting in when you have given up, Thrusting faith into comfortable loss, Demanding your heart again because This time they've made a proper start, This time they will rise in triumph. from “Leeks” by Richard Spilman O Heart' Thou must beat Once again a cold mist surrounds Grey dull darkness makes the light Thin bare branches stretch out tight bracing the long wintry wait with the trunk stuck deep like krait; Once again I see all; same life as a game, a Fall Of time- Of love, of words of rhyme; Once again I see rainbow twinkles; I see Light as my heart misses a beat and creates ripples in the veins, constant are the pains of the sacred crime ~ discarded hopes were forgotten remember the seven deadly sins? Pride greed sloth and the glutton? But This time they've made a proper start, O Innocent Heart’ Thou must beat To beat the terrible monster Afreet Once again there is emptiness ...

Silly Me-who do you think you are so near and yet so far' a voice spoke but my faith had strength and so I smiled The flowers will come inside and I will wait and not resign That will be the sign... Lo Behold as night came on my husband returned  holding in his arms a large bouquet flowers of the same hues as outside the terrace window and I got my sign and The Lord promises truly the dues' He is Most Gracious Most Merciful Oft Forgiving  Loving and Beautiful sweet scented flowers were inside ...
