Forgive

Never an easy feat, but to gain peace

Examine self, confer with God and cease

All consuming malice and rage, for God

Has always been compassionate to us!

Frustration

Just a touch from you, keeps me calm

Yet, a touch, ignites wild fire,

Our charm explodes like a bomb.

Your lips and voice, fans desire

Just a kiss, feelings unstable

That trust and loyalty inspire.

Doubts develop, I'm unable

To keep my distress, unspoken

Faithfulness brings peace, stay stable.

Actions and words, left me broken

Promised to move on, no turn back

But left behind a small token

Despair, torment, subtle attack

Love's  a letdown, regret in black!

Peace

Just before the break of dawn

While everyone dosses on

True contentment i attain

My accomplishments not vain.

Anxiety

Sit beneath a quiet shading

Ponders everything persuading

Overwhelming always clever

Judgement floats around forever.

Imagination, twists and turns

Endless chatter trigger concerns

Fears limits all the potential

Attitude of non essential.

Lack of slumber, presents conflict

Self motivation to restrict

Uncertainties the sense confined

Old hurts sip pass, friendship declined.

Constant probe, suffocate all truth

Tears set me free, the pain it sooth.

Stony Staircase

Walk out to ocean, this stony pathway,

Folk story declare, twas a snakes byway,

Climbed from sea, wormed onto the hidden cave

Men explored and commune, the knowledge crave

This legend lives on, even to this day!

Along the horizon, dawn caught away

Rides in with glory, it's mystic gateway

Morning shines hope on, the soul of each brave

Walk out to ocean, this stony pathway.

Mist rises, the ocean hides the doorway

Relish the cold evening, welcome skies grey,

The lava flow stairway, the surf well lave

Presents a view, foretell of gifts we save

The moon radiates rich, dream day can't stay

Walk out to ocean, this stony pathway!

Time

Time has a way of

Making everything seems okay

When it's not, at all!

Love

It took all these years

Fighting, loving from distance 

Fearing not enough 

Yet, the connection's surreal

Drawn like magnets together!

Gratitude

Another week has come and gone
Great blessings, this new morning dawn
Regardless aches, defeats, and doom
Breathe gratitude throughout this gloom
For life endures, hope cheers us on

Huge delight from nature live on
His virtue showed honor upon
Every creation to whom
Another week has come and gone.

Struggles and challenges, hold on
Obstacles and failures feed on
Grow in strength, don't let hate consume
Forgive others, love will resume
Vast or wee, gratitude lives on 
Another week has come and gone.

Freedom & Loyalty

This morning, love, so rapt and calm

Gently soaring, the heavens free

Soothing chippers, a welcome balm

Pondering minds sweet bliss it brings.

Humbled with reserved gracefulness,

Your unshakable bond admire

Yearn for a promise faithfulness

To, no demise, last forever.

My belief in intimacy

Such genuine and supportive

Instantly magnified anew

Great confidence this bird has shown.

Like this bird I desire to

Endeavor, never giving up.

True affection and great pleasure

Construct safe haven durable!

Hard working, blossom to attract eye,
Easy to nurture, yet tough,

Admire how thrives through all thing defy!

Quarantine Isolation

Home, the place to be self confined 
Hinders me not from roaming mind
New goals seduce me
Growth urge wish I see ,
Negatives, I leave all behind!

Dream Wedding

A silly dream that left a smiling me

I pray it becomes a reality 

But for now, reminisce on what could be.

Began as friends, turned frenemies to lovers

We're not the same, we're not under covers 

E'ry feats, our journey discovers.

A smile, a kiss, filled me up with delight 

Innocent dreams fill my night, feels so right

Flowing train, a sight to behold in white 

One man, one woman, with a love that's true

Beneath a clear, summer azure sky blue

Hearts and soul embrace in love, say I do!

Promises made, sincerely the love's pure

To vow faithfulness, all lust to endure

Fall not for no allure, remain mature!

My waist enclosed within your tight embrace

Hold me dear, don't let me slip from this place

Wake from this dream, an urge to see your face.

Laid back, still in bed, all felt oh so real

You walked in, smiled bright, kissed and seal the deal.

Sweet Kiss

I daydream and reminisce 

About that night months ago

I miss your sweet kiss!

Even if I tried, I couldn't dismiss

The feelings evoked within me,

I daydream and reminisce. 

Our love is bliss

Distance only enhance it,

I miss your sweet kiss!

Memories as precious as this

Makes me appreciate everything,

I daydream and reminisce.

Seems strange to reminisce 

But the memories are always close,

I miss your sweet kiss!

On a night like tonight, you I surely miss

Hearts pounding, breaths mingled, sweet embraces

Fevered with dreams so sweet as this

I miss your sweet kiss!

Protected by the longest barrier reef

Cocooned along the sandy coastline, belief 

Found a hamlet, well liked by all seek relief.

A Mixture of modern and historical,

The naturality sings rhetorical

Brings awe with orderliness so powerful

The Carefully manicured and colorful 

Dazzling explosion of flowers, that all

Lined along the road or neighbors gardens, call

Full attention to it's unique attraction. 

Million dollar views, oh so admirable 

Port d' enfer - the gate of hell, red-rocks to

The sole vill with a tropical forest allure.

Multicolored designed notices and signs

Presents a welcome to all, passing on new

Meanings to the term rich and amicable

With rare views, natural gems, fun things to do,

Refreshing rivers, swims unforgettable

At black sand beaches along the east coastlines.

From the Wind blown estate to Hodges estate 

From the bay to the various hill views, wait!

This townlet charms visitors to meditate.

To all visitors, it's a welcome relief

Stay awhile and explore to your disbelief!

 Prompt was to write a poem about a specific place, I chose my home community village. 

My Life

Like a motion picture, my life unfold

Inner strife and great challenges untold,

I searched and discovered peace

my innermost turmoil cease

The chapters of my life, the future hold!

Through every journey that passes by

Grow firmer like the eagle in the sky.

Set goals, work to achieve them

Averse opinion condemn

My discovered peace, lifted me on high!
