O Gentlemen

O Gentlemen

It is your blood or theirs,
It is the human blood after all.
War may go on in the East or the West,
It will bleed the peace of world, after all.

Bombs may fall on homes or on outskirts,
They wound the spirit of life after all.
Our crops may burn or theirs,
The famine will kill humans, after all.

Tanks may move forward or recede
They tear open the Earth after all.
Be it the victory of war or the mourning of defeat,
Life sheds tears on death after all.

So, O gentlemen!
It is better to end the war.
In the courtyards, yours and ours,
It is better to keep the candles burning.

Why Do I Love You..

THE FIRST TIME I SAW YOU BACK 2002
I NEVER FORGET THAT YEAR..BECOUSE
YOU TATTOO IN THE DEEPEST PART OF MY HEART.
I REMEMBER THE FIRST WORDS WHEN YOU CALLED
ME(SIR)THE WORDS THAT LEAD ME TO MEET A
WONDERFUL PERSON OF YOU,

BUT AS THE TIMES GOES BY..I WONDER WHY I DIDN'T
SEE YOU AT YOUR FAVORITE TABLE..
I ASK SOMEONE TO THOSE WHO IS CLOSE TO YOU
AND I DONT KNOW IF I CAN STAND THE WORDS
(CANCER)YOU...ARE READY TO GO ANY TIME?

WHY...YOU LET ME LOVE YOU & PUT YOU IN MY HEART.
THAT ONE DAY YOU LEAVE ME IN TEARS,,
WHY IN THIS WORLD ..YOU LET ME SMILE & LAUGH
THAT ONE DAY I CRY ALONE?
YOU ARE MY SHOULDER TO CRY ON..BUT NOW YOU;RE
GONE..YOU PLANTED IN MY HEART YOUR FACE..
YOU'RE KINDNESS...YOU TEACH ME TO BE STRONG ENOUGH
BUT I NEVER THINK THAT YOU LEAVE ME ALONE IN
THIS LONELY WORLD..WHEREVER YOU ARE NOW..
YOU SEE ME ..PLEASE ..GUIDE ME STILL..
I NEVER FORGOT YOU,,,I MISS YOU..

Happy Birthday To Me

Embedded image from another site


It's way past midnight
no birthday bells
just the arrival
of another day..

Maybe a fresh start
my woman
is mad at me
over something frivolous..

It was my wish
she would call today
I'm one year older
Happy Birthday to me!

I want to kiss you

I want your lips to press against mine
our tongues to meet for the first time
I'm sorry I just don't know how to ask
so I hide my feelings behind a mask
I don't want to let it show

In bed I twist and turn
my eyes long to see you
my lips again with their curse
at night my want to kiss you is so much worse

When I wake up and the morning sky is as blue as the Caribbean sea
and love birds fly across it singing songs of love and luxury
I reach out to grab you as if my mind wont believe your not here
I want t kiss you, but I just don't know how to ask.

Daniel an angel fighting for your future

---- IMAGE REMOVED because photobucket.com no longer allows embedded images ----
Friends have always been a inspiration to me
I am so very lucky to have friends beautiful like you all
People should never ignore things they should stand for
Fighting corruption for a better future for us all
At last i have got through but sadly it's cost me and my friends life,
I am quite poorly now it's time for me to go
My work is almost done now the days of sadness gone for good
It’s time for Daniel to have his angel and lots of fun
Bless you and everyone always with love and peace
Daniel angel from Cape Cornwall

About this poem:
Me and friend Dylan about four years ago was working
rebuilding a barn where asbestos was put into the walls
of the barn without us knowing it's very difficult to believe that
that some members of authority could be this evil
and try and cover there tracks by using others
telling lies they want do this again
Cornish people are proud and stand for what is right

Stones in the road

I may have flaws, live in anxiety, even get angry sometimes
But I do not forget that my life
is the biggest company in the world...
And I can avoid its failure.
To be happy is to recognise that life is worth living
Even with all its challenges, misunderstandings, and its periods of
crisis.
To be happy is to stop being victim of problems and being the
author of your own story.
It's to cross deserts outside of yourself
And to find an oasis inside your soul...
It's to thank God each morning for the miracle of life.
To be happy it is not to be afraid of your own emotions.
It is knowing how to speak about yourself.
It is to have courage to listen to a 'no'!
To have the strengh to receive a criticism
even when unjust...
Stones in the road?
I save every single one, one day I'll build a castle....

Love poem for a witch..

Embedded image from another site



My love
we celebrate your birth
on the night of Samhain
when the worlds are whisper thin
and your magic sings its sweetest song

Your love draws stars from the sky
lures spirits from the tombs
snow falls from summer skies
love so sacred and magical

Let us encounter
surrounded by forest
as the wind
whispers its secrets to the trees
we seek the sacred creek
leading to the river that kisses the earth
where flowers bloom in rapture to the earth

This day I am yours
you are mine
we are inseparable in death
by Any power or pain
for it is such true love
no death awaits us

Come with me my love
come back to the one
sense my spirit and take flight
let us see all of creation
let us seek favor from the divine

God and goddess we will become
gods of true and all powerful devotion
let us be graced
by the moon goddess
by the dragon of the stars
allowing us to burn hot with passion

Let us draw
from the power of the earth
alive and solid
beneath our feet
a fertile valley
all our wants and needs
will be satisfied

Blessed be
your feet which carries you to me
your knees which kneel in worship
your breasts of porcelain beauty
your lips which kiss with fire
blessed be your body

My love scented with jasmine
I seek you in silver slant of moonlight
your magic is all enthralling
I succumb to your witches cry
I come to your lair softly lit
your Wiccan pattern on the floor to guide me
save me from the river of flames
with the manifestation of your desires
for in you my love
I am charmed...

Morning acrostic

Embedded image from another site



M.oving from my sleep
O.nly echoes of the night remain
R.eturning from visions of you
N.ever believing I would meet someone like you
I.awake with delight
N.ot alone anymore cos I have you
G.ood morning my love...

This morning
the breeze
awakens the earth

Birds sing cheerfully
to the earth

This is the time
to wish my love

a good morning...

Ignite & Unite

A fire lights beneath me incinerating hopes and goals
Smothering the coals to ash and believing what I'm told
Finding truth in life, ways that I never thought
Im powered by my dreams accepting what I'm taught
Controlling every substance that draws me astray
Breaking down in tears to the heavens I will pray

Burnt Soul
Distraut a lot
Memory Full
Intentions Cruel
Completely Renewed
Long Overdue
Admitted the Truth
How about you?

Ignite & Unite
The fire is beneath us all
To take us down to a mighty fall
To beckon our minds for one last call
Begining the ending of our long haul

Your God

Your god

Not a man-made creation
That implies existence

Perhaps a man-made concept

What kind of God, what kind of God?

Show me one
Who possesses fire in his right hand
And lightning in his left

Where is your eternal God
And why am I so unworthy
To speak
Or hold communion with?

Did he create me in such complexity
To solve his infinite riddles
and discern
with my power of reason
the difference between Him
and millenial history?!

Why must I believe
In that which I cannot prove

If faith is so important
Then why so many faiths?
Where were we meant to draw the line?

"I do not believe"
Is such a complex thing, itself
In the Christian God?
In the Jewish God?
In the Muslim God?
Your pick

The One Single God
As if they could be the same
Should one exist
If somehow only one
If somehow it could be proven
Just one, none more
But who could really say?

On the premise of faith
You take your pick
And somehow discredit
One, against the other

'In Yahweh, I have found faith..'
But not in Allah, I wonder why?
How do you determine your faith
To One God, against the Many God's Lie?

I marvel at your dedication
I am confounded by your complicity
I cringe at the thought
That your Universal God
Might accept your blind faith
And somehow not me

Here in my dark and painful reality
I am injured and wanting and free
To chose faith and complacence
To any God that I might
But none have presented
And even I should resent it
This 'Devil' that so well
you have known-
Yet now he doesn't chase me

About this poem:
I spent a good portion of my life believing what I was told to believe.

Someone help me find the truth?

I will believe in the God who speaks with me.
I will not hold court with riddles and history.
If I am to believe in a God, it will be the Living God.
It will be one concerned with my existence.
It will not be an ancient sovereign who is beyond my reach.
It will be He who Cares and Touches my Soul,
Not the cold and isolated, distant Father of the sinful Church.

I AM WORTH KNOWING-
SHARE YOURSELF WITH ME.
