24 Poems ~ 24 Hours
He hold the candle lit
Golden yellow
Miracles he brings to us
Not a day goes by
To see of his works done
How great is his art
Loving it all as it is his hands to make the difference in life to cheer us on
Yeah, the miracle of him in and to us
Desperately
Sunshine yellow, bright smiles
Under the warmth of the perfect blue sky
Never a dull day, never black or grey
She was a pocket full of happiness
Humming to herself, a skip in her step
If you saw her, you would smile too
No chance you would ever see her frown
Ever bright, with a beautiful smile; Sunshine
Hope, merely stardust.
The moon slivered cheese as I dream of sleep and removing my shoes.
Silhouettes of trees
backlight by the suns return.
How often we forget
that the sun is static,
constant.
It is we who move away from
and back towards its warmth.
chasing lost goals
into the cool darkness of night.
disregarding the lies we know as truth.
Hope, merely stardust.
————————————–
Tell me once again
sweet lies of forgetfulness
as i search for me
stardust beaming like new hope
old pains kindling my rebirth
revelations after dark
Teslas numbers whispering
Hope, merely stardust.
So many lanes to walk down, so
few steps left to take.
Far too many land mines down there so turn around
lest your frame should break.
On the left hand side, you have the old jungle gym
On the right, the dilapidated alma mater.
So many indelible memories run through the heart of this town
Like a river full of water .
From the carnival rides
to the runs through to the woods
from the epic water slides
to uncovering all the goods.
We never knew just how good we had it
until it all came crashing down.
But looking back on it all,
we owned that town.
What the future holds
is anyone’s guess
But we sure are looking forward to
that big beautiful mess.
Blossom
blossom in her eyes
sprout of kindness in her heart
the greenery inside her mind
and the vines that intertwine the soul of us
the seedling of hope in her dreams
and leaves of beauty on her skin
are fructified by the divine roots in her veins
a human with a thornless intention
in this life
may she have an everlasting blossom.
It’s through His tenderness that we,
Learn to love unconditionally
He leads us by His divine example
His patience unwavering and ample
If nothing more we get to be
Sinners that repent for His glory.
Come one come all you’ll be relieved
His arms are eager to receive

Stardust
You loved that song
I had forgotten
Until this moment
Now my heart aches
You loved daisies too
I will not forget again
I would carve it all into my palms
Before I too am
Stardust
(Prompt: Write a poem that starts and ends with the same word. It can be short, but it has to be at least five lines long. If you can’t think of your own word to start and end with here are my suggestions: hope, stardust, cheese, sleep, and shoes.)
Now as a movie ends,
it fades to a black screen.
The music begins
as the names and titles
scroll upwards.
Listening to the music
in silence I’d read
through in search of you.
Those I’s and O’s that
spelled out your name.
The reward in finding it
among the many hundreds before you.
Now you no longer appear,
like a fragment of time
of imagination.
I remember you every morning I wake
look at your pictures and videos
left on your social media.
Endings good and bad are never easy.
You’re a movie I didn’t want to end.
