COSMIC RAIN

Look up!

You shall soon ascertain
Fireballs fall like cosmic rain;
Debris from the Comet ISON
After goin ‘round central sun

HEARTS' UNITE

Christmas comes but once a year;

A time for family and good cheer

Though some may be far far away

Hearts unite on Christmas day!

6:10 TRAIN To NOWHERE

Trouble here;

Trouble there

In this world,

Gone insane

I give up

I don’t care;

Get me off,

This train

KING EXXIDAR

There once lived an evil king,

In the ancient “Land of Nod”

“Exxidar”

Lived a life of splendor,

Wore murdered father’s signet ring

Self proclaimed demi-god;

Tribute came from near ‘n far

Was greatly feared;

For being cruel ‘n unjust

He never spared “The rod”

One day to Nod;

A stranger came

To call upon the king

Regal ‘n handsome,

With hint of danger

“My Lord I come from afar”

My name is Thoth!

Thoth spoke these words;

“Being  immortal for many ages,

I’ve seen the rise ‘n fall

Of many kingdoms,

Verily I say to you;

My book has many pages”

“Majesty I bring glad tidings

‘Lest thou refuse me heed;

Free thy subjects from harsh bindings,

Heal old wounds that still do bleed”

“Provide shelter; clothe ‘n feed the destitute

Pay well those of able body for their toil,

Let all who work this land bear fruit

Ensure that every lamp be full of oil”

“Act now;

This land shall truly flourish;

For a thousand generations!

Through the love of a grateful many;

Thy hungry soul shall surely nourish”

A flash of anger crossed the king’s face

“Who is Thoth, to tell me what to do?”

“Before my court I’ll put this man in his place.”

“I’ll punish him, (although his words be true.)”

Thoth stood before King Exxidar in silence;

 Sunlight thru yonder pane shone upon his face

With lowered eyes Thoth showed compliance

He knew humbling before a king was no disgrace

Exxidar’s mouth went from frown to smile;

He knew by Thoth his rule had been tested

There was nothing in this man he could revile

The king knew with Thoth he had been bested

The king raised his voice, and did decree

“Stay a while, my Sage and counsel me”

ROTMS

“LIVING SUNLIGHT”

She walked in truth ‘n beauty

“Motherhood” her heart-felt duty

At last her precious soul took flight

Gone!

Her bright ‘n “Living sunlight”
