Fallen

Once upon a time, in a land shrouded in darkness and despair,

Lived two sinister beings, Lucifer and Satan, a malevolent pair.

They reveled in evil, their hearts full of malice and spite,

Spreading chaos and fear, with every step they'd alight.

One gloomy day, they schemed to conquer the heavenly plane,

To overthrow the angels and tarnish its divine domain.

With eyes glowing red and hearts black as coal,

They sought to corrupt heaven and seize its control.

Together they ventured, through storms and shadowed lands,

In search of a weakness, to achieve their wicked plans.

With whispers of deceit and promises of power,

They rallied dark forces, hour by sinister hour.

Lucifer, with silver tongue, deceived the angelic host,

While Satan sowed discord, creating a treacherous ghost.

In heaven's midst, they sowed seeds of doubt and disdain,

Their malicious intentions, none could ascertain.

Through heavenly gates, they stealthily crept,

Amidst stars and celestial clouds, where guardians slept.

With malice and mischief, they stormed the divine hall,

Their malevolence echoed, a seditious, haunting call.

But little did they know, a celestial warrior stewed,

An archangel named Michael, of valor and fortitude.

He sensed the evil brewing, the impending sinister attack,

And vowed to protect heaven, pushing evil forces back.

The battle ensued, a clash of light and dark,

As Lucifer and Satan schemed, leaving a menacing mark.

But Michael's valor and angelic might,

Drove back the darkness, restoring heaven's light.

In a final confrontation, Michael faced the malevolent pair,

He fought with divine fervor, his wings spread wide with flair.

Though Lucifer and Satan were formidable foes,

Michael's righteousness prevailed, and their wickedness he froze.

Banished from heaven, they were cast down below,

To the depths of the abyss, where darkness would grow.

Their sinister tale serves as a warning to all,

Beware the allure of evil's enticing call.

So, dear children, heed this tale's dark refrain,

Embrace goodness and light, from the path of evil abstain.

For in the choices you make, and the deeds you pursue,

Lies the power to shape your destiny, be it dark or be it true.

Merlin

Sights one night he saw a king

A child born of wonder

Tales of it would fill the world

Of powers torn asunder

On his staff a tiny star

A gift he had not sought it

Deep from in her blackened garb

The jewel from true loves pocket

Came an eve at sunsets pause

A vision came to sight

Atop his mountain o're the ridge

Of a licorice Black Knight

Merlin looked on valley rich 

Fair beauty sprung to life

Catching eye, it's queen of maids

This Camelots first wife

At night he went to see her

From his cave atop the ridge

The Black knight never saw him

With his eyes set on the bridge

They spoke of ancient legends 

And the history of her lands

Before the Black Knight won it

By the violence of his hands

Loneliness had built a void

Tears hoped for his falling

Black knight never there to see

Merlins time was calling

Passions fury one night rode

Its price unlocked her gates

None but Merlin held her heart

Beyond their parting fates

Merlin left his starlight true 

For what it may become

Off to travel far and wide

And bring a chosen one

Merlin found that strapping boy

Convinced him to be king

After years of training him

To take the Black Knights ring

Many years had come to pass

Arthurs time it nears

Take the Black knight off the bridge

And save our Guineveres

Pendragon

Chosen son would be a king

His legend and endeavour

Earned the right to speak as lord

His life to stand forever

Within his soul a tiny star

Merlins oft to speak it

Black to be the war he fought

His deepest sin to seek it

Came an eve at sunsets pause

A Black Knight flashed the light

In kingdom held and guarded well

Into the licorice night

This kingdom filled a valley rich

Of water game and life

Trapped within a wealth of maids

His queen to be and wife

One road led among them

On a cavern o're a bridge

The Black Knight stood upon it

Captured beauty on the ridge

Tales of one were legend

At the quickness of his hands

Few survived the final word

Of Arthurs fierce demands

Shattered suitors filled the void

Tears shed for their falling

Black knights test as king to be

By final strike this calling

Brutal fury held this road

It's price would paint the gates

None but one could hold the land

Actions taken less debates

Faith and practice filled ones arm

Reason' s Happenstance

Tresspassing king to rescue thee 

Love's withheld advance

Starlight filled his loving heart

Thoughts of danger for his jewel

Blackness struck without a word

Bloodlust ruled the duel

Only for this greatest love

Held fast it's final pain

Dream's a king had set to flight

For Camelots new reighn

Swingers

Keep your best balls washed 

your putter clean

You never know when you'll do 18

Seek slackened flags with stiffer shots

Swinging round the aging pots

Always tip at the liquid carts

Try to hit the open parts

Never fear that hazard line

Hit it straight youll be just fine

Laying up's for lesser men

Though possibly a bogie ten

Enjoy your walk among the links

1/2 off when then weather stinks

Remember hat and wear your glove

Golf gods please send me your love

Swing Away!

Eden

Once upon a time, in a land where dreams were born,

Lived a curious child named Eve, her spirit untorn.

One sunny day, Eve looked up to the sky so blue,

She wondered where heaven was and if it was true.

With a heart full of wonder and eyes shining bright,

Eve called upon Eternity, her friend from the night.

"Eternity," she cried, "please guide me this quest,

I want to find heaven, where all good things rest."

Eternity, ancient and wise, heard Eve's sincere plea,

Together they set off, in search of what could be.

They spun around dancing, explored high and low,

But Eve knew in her heart, there was still more to know.

"Look deeper, my dear child, and let your soul march,

Through valleys and mountains, where heaven's tales arch."

Hand in hand, they climbed high up mountaintops steep,

Eve's curiosity grew, she could not rest or sleep.

"Beneath the broken flags, heaven might just be found,"

Eternity whispered, with a knowing, gentle sound.

Yet Eve felt a tingle, a pull from deep within,

She followed that feeling, her heart couldn't dim.

Around a bend they went, through  forests fair and green,

Where sunlight filtered through a leafy, magical scene.

There, amidst the whispers of trees so tall,

Eve and Eternity discovered heaven's enchanted hall.

Eternity smiled, knowing the truth so well,

Heaven's beauty unfurled, with all it's secrets to tell.

In angel flocks and ancient trees, they found a place so grand,

A realm of love and joy, stretching across the land.

Eve and Eternity's tale spread far and wide,

A story of curiosity, with hearts open wide.

In every child's heart, the legend still resides,

To seek heaven's wonders, where love forever resides.

So, dear children, remember this story true,

Let your spirits soar, and dreams come into view.

With a heart full of wonder and eyes shining bright,

You too can find heaven, bathed in eternal light.

Perseus

Forwords

Backwords 

Arts of a Medusa

Sexless slithers

Burning all who too

They true have seen

Lost among its stone

Filling flowering serpants

Each mimic taking hold

Mirror deep and strike

Firm of hand and sword

Reset the rule

To all who never must

Never fall to myth

Sway

In this world of power, might and sway,

Where nations clash and rivalries play,

The great behemoths of East and West,

Are locked in a dance, that's put to the test.

A tussle for supremacy, it seems,

A struggle for power, without any dreams,

Of peace, of love, of friendship true,

Only of strength and dominance to accrue.

The winds of change blow hard and fierce,

A tempest brewing, ready to pierce,

The calm and quiet of the global scene,

With a storm that's ominous and mean.

But amidst this chaos, let us not forget,

That the ties that bind, are strong and set,

And as long as we strive for peace and light,

We shall emerge, from this dark and dismal night.

The Black Knight

A mighty knight to prove a king 

As master and a brother

True to god to test a lord

In death to find another

Held to him a tiny star

Encased in silver locket

Black would be his royal garb

This trinket deep to pocket

Every eve at sunsets pause

His weapons flashed the light

A kingdom free and guarded well

Into the licorice night

His kingdom filled a valley rich

With water, game, and life

Daughtered by a dozen maids

The Queen of love his wife

One road led among them

From the caverns holy ridge

This King would stand to hold it

As a knight atop the bridge

Tales of him were legend 

In the mastery of his stands

Few returned to speak his fame

None had touched his lands

Shattered daggers filled the void

Tears shed for each falling

Darkness was this test to see

Who's strike became a calling

Skill and honor held the code

Of he who'ld tempt the fates

None but one could rule his land

It's price would paint the gates

Years of steel to build an arm

The fire filled his dance

Tresspass no one over me

A King your only chance

Sunlight filled his loving heart

blood his nightly duel

His alone this paradise

Lesser souls his fuel

No one knew among his loves

What every night he'ld seen

lives the king had set to flight

For children, land, and queen

Guinevere

A maiden knight to prove a king 

As mentor and a lover

Truth her life to test a lord

Her faith to find this other

Held to her a tiny star

Encased in silver locket

A black knights gift from royal garb

Deep within hearts pocket

Every eve at sunsets pause

Her weapons flashed the light

A kingdom free and guarded well

Into the licorice night

Her kingdom filled a valley rich

Protected from all strife

Daughter to a line of kings

Queens of love and life

One road led among them

From the caverns holy bridge

Guinevere would hold it

True loves light atop the ridge

Tales of her were visions

And the legend of her stands

Few could help but speak her name

Her beauty marked the lands

Shattered beggars filled the void

Tears shed for each falling

Starlight was her wish to see

Who’s love became a calling

Skill and honor held the code

Of one who’d tempt the fates

None but this could rule her heart

It’s price unlock her gates

Years of patience held her firm

Fire filled her dance

Tresspass no one over me

A King the only chance

Sunlight filled her loving heart

A lonely royal jewell

Hers to share this paradise 

With one who'd reign and rule

No one knew of lesser lives

What Guinevere had seen

Hearts the maid had set to flight

As Camelots next queen

 Life

 Given 

Taken back

A thousand billion moments dying

Part of every ocean born

Through fractured fields

 Of ever blooming time

I am I

 In the dusts of dawn

 In streams and beams

Of all light ever broken

In the sons of sons of every star

Forever ending 

Carried

Maddieness

Pulling tears into the real

At the mention of a name

Feeling mostly out of time

Two lovers rehab game

Hold this world as memory

Some day one day to be healed

Futures here no guarantees

Hearts pushed across the field

In windows always passing

On a train around the sun

We can watch without a whisper

Or jump the tracks to run

Maddiness afflicts us

Calling out another home 

Walking well away the pond

Beyond our time to roam

Hold a second longer

Best to think it through

Seeking brighter angels

As each is made of two

Some are lost like flowers

Ever blasted to the wind

Maddiness is held to us

Til' time and gods resind

Coop Rooster

Early times on given days

I crow inside the coop

Slowly checking overtime

Just dealing with the poop

Corn fed packs of heart attacks

Clucking set to wild

Sleep until they feather up

Then unwinds each child  

Some eggs rise to rumble

From the nightshades of their wars

Some rise slowly raking

To the simplest of their chores

Scratching for a future clear

Plucking at some eyes

Ranging round their feeding ground

Dodging ducks and flys

All the senior mommas run

To the crow of their own clocks

Lesser birds are shooed away

Far beyond the cocks

Some eggs will be cracking

Be they soft or hard inside

Each must face the morning 

Til they break to stroll outside

Intercession only

In each flying feathered fact

When hen clucking turns to squawking 

When hen peace turns to attack

I stand tall for the place I stand

In this paradise for pickin'

Think of me coop rooster

Master mentor to the chicken

Sailing Soul

Each one sails a bit of soul

As the tides of the lords of industry flow

Win or perish as you sink or row

Reality dictates who must go

At mercy's start or knowing and slow

It and all will fade or grow

Plans and action require change

Like a tall ships ocean range

Miracles blooming left and right

Blossoms holding to the light

Perennials all inside the cage

Toasting each survival stage

If of prayer we are to ponder

May you please know love and wonder 

As long as we are gifted goals

Pray Industrious lords rise 

Worthy of tides 

And

Sailing for their souls

Red Hat Rose

Barrelling Rose rode rodeo

And the RedHat Rose was she

Racing around 

The Barrelling ground

On her mustang Cherokee 

Rose's name of RedHat came

From a family hand me down

Half Irish/Scots American 

Half Apachi Prairie Indian

Rose's redhat whooped the town

Practicing and watching 

Near as soon as Rose could ride

Grandma Redhat racing mama

Her heart pulsing with the drama

Rose was racing from first stride

Every broom to Rose a mustang

Every mud pit was the track

But her life of course

Required a horse

When Cherokee gave up her back

Barrellin Rose rode Cherokee

To the best time at the worlds

Every witness to that day

Spoke of greatness and to say

Barrellin's truly fastest girls

Houston, Vegas, Blackfoot, Dodge

Rose Judged throughout the west

As her famous red hat rises

To the victors tears and prizes

And their timed runs near her best

Finally one would earn the crown

In the Red Hats final year

Grandaughter Rose

On her Twinkletoes

Ran a fifteen five I hear

Passing down the mantle

Roses rodeo could now close

To the figure 8's next highness

Barrel racing bloodline's finest

And our Red Hats newest Rose
