By light of moon, by light of day May evil never come this way By coldest north and warmest south May words of peace fall from the mouth By distant east and breezy west Joy abundant, richly blessed By heaven above and hell below Greatest wisdom Source bestows By ties so great and strong around… Continue reading “The Blessing” – Poetry
Fill your days with joy and caring Wisdom, love, and laughter. And always know, without a doubt, There is a sweet Hereafter. It is what you make of it. The images of mind.

Birth – meant for convenience and enslavement Life – valueless, pitiable Death – merely hours away Sunlight – a strange word in a foreign language Torture – a way of life Bone – what you hear scrape against the floor Blade – to puncture and prod Smiles – to mock and degrade Festival… Continue reading “Starlight Haven” – Poetry
Fleeting shadows, wisps of darkness Arrested breath Illusion? Flashing beacons, wings so bright Racing mind Confusion. Scarlet portals, sinister gaze Rising fear Delusion? Light is darkness, darkness - light? Woven webs Corruption. "Nothing to fear. Do as thou wilt." Questionable fantasy Propagation?
