Sunshine's Daily Promises

Sun in a cool waltz across a clear sky
We live too fast and dare to wonder why!
Another slow lazy day of tasks well done
O' yes, the lazy part was the real fun .

Thoughts of why we so readily embrace greed
when just enough is as much as we need.
Perhaps it truly is far later than we think
when life so often vanishes in a mere blink.

Sun rises with its eternal blessed life giving heat
with morning bacon and eggs I wish to eat .
Tomorrow, tomorrow promises of a future chance
don't sleep in, get up to dance, and dance.

Sun in a cool waltz across a blue sky
We live too hard and dare to wonder why !

RJL,
DATE-- LONG AGO.

When They Tire, Give Them A Songbird's Sweetest Glee

Cried critics to a sad poet- " Write us happy poems now!
This day while the western sky sails in blue give us gold
Sad poet pondered the forceful request wondering how
Now that his ink had dried and his muse was so damn old.

The poet thought in sadness for many long, long hours
Then this new thought raced into his aching head
Give colors, rainbows glistening upon pretty flowers
Silken canopy over earth's most beautiful princess's bed.

When they tire, give them a songbird's sweetest glee
golden soft feathers that sing as they quickly beat
With honey splashed in deep in their cool green tea,
give them red-hot and fantastic meals to eat.

His mission accomplished the poet asked to leave
the critics cried , "Hell no slave, you must stay!
Then he knew, tis dangerous to such beauty weave
for his crime, his freedom he must forever pay!

In Prisons Brimming With Their Tears And Lost Gold

Where does man heal his tired soul when old,
in black castles brimming with sad tears and gold?
Along rivers that ooze of his stinging dark pains,
imprisoned in shades of his misery and stains.

Lord knows we made our foul and blackened beds
filled ém with savage cuts in our hard heads!
While we danced with world's greatest deceivers
in our shallow joys, begged we to be receivers!

Now our wicked souls cry for that sweet kindness
rare gems we cheerfully tossed away in our blindness
O' how we now beg to be given greater goals
such that will never again tarnish our weeping souls.

Where do bad men redeem broken spirits when old
in prisons brimming with their tears and lost gold?

This is part one. Parts two and three are both fragments-to be finished before I die--

Your Beauty, Aromatic Fragrance Of Roses In Full Bloom

Your warmth , rests in sweet tenderness covering my aching heart
your beauty, aromatic fragrance of roses in full bloom.
Our fate, love far more than gleaming stars on astrology chart
each hot night we dance in tingling rhapsody in our bedroom.

As green sprouts shooting forth in colorful life every new Spring
we bask in glowing sunspots to warm our hearts and fill our sails.
Red-lip kisses and gentle touch invigorate and bring
romance for the ages and all each sensual night that entails.

New dawn , your scent wakes me to an angel resting sweetly there
never again will my heart seek greater than what I have now.
Your angelic face and gentle heart, surely fairest of fair
I found you in my long search and won your love I know not how!

Where racing sprouts shoot forth into colorful life every Spring
your red-lip kisses and daring nighttime dancing makes me sing.

I Love The Way She Wiggles When She Walks


I love the way she wiggles when she walks
her beautiful smile that shows her delight.
She fascinates me with sweet, sexy talks
together in bed on cold winter nights.

Hot romance like this comes along rarely
her soft, gentle touch swells my ardor.
When she undresses, I can just barely
Hold back as I do, each time gets harder.

I love the way she wiggles when she walks!

You dog, my wife just saw that video clip and asked me if I have a new female fan!
Without missing a beat, I replied, I wish!!

Her frown was priceless and yes she knows " this old dog--aint agonna stray" ..

Yet long ago, I dated women like that, and it cost me severely several times .. Learned my lesson well...
She sho'bez a sexy, hot chick...... with the right wiggles, jiggles and fine curves--Tyr

Where New Skies Reach Up From Rising Ground

Darkened mists at new dawn's sweet early rise
may give just and great cause for greater fears.
Evil lurks in soul of man, no surprise
life precious as it may be, holds sad tears.

In this huge world, dark forces dance and play
abject blindness will not protect your soul.
Comes pain and heartache whenever it may
both are fruits of evil's eternal goal.

Look each day for dawn's gifts and warnings both
where new skies reach up from rising ground.
Seeing wisdom's new lights can expand growth
in living life better, always so sound.

When time has flown into its last moment
each dawn's promise will greet your life well spent.

But.....what a package! Look at that cute little face....!!!

Yes now that you mention it, I've actually looked at her face..
She sho' bez a stunner, just the kind that once wrapped me into their web..
No more sexy and lustful spiders for me my friend.
Because their bites are vicious and can even be deadly...--Tyr

I Walked A Thorny Path Alone

I walked a thorny path alone,
Bare feet eating dusty ground:
I looked back, you were gone,
Remained only hollow empty sound,
We both racing homeward bound.

That Spring morn, you were all mine,
Smiling with heart all aglow-
Blazing sun you did outshine,
Future love, would we know:
Loving food yet still refuse to dine?

Time told me this pain once before
You had shattered me that day
I wanted you , desired you, all the more
Reunited again each night we could play
Until you departed to another shore.

Now memories show me your smile
Sexy legs and red-hot lips
Soft witchery that so beguiles,
Face that launched a thousand ships
Now I look back a thousand miles!

Note- If ever a man lost a greater treasure I pity him more than me..
She was the moon's sweet light and the cat's soft meow.
My first wife found and burned the only picture I had of her.
All I could say was, "its ok darling--she was in my past"..
Yet now 40 years later, she still haunts my dreams..

No Sunny Rays Daring To Blast This Heart In Me


I can not write any good words this saddest day
no rice in the pudding , no pitchfork in the hay.
Morning dawned with its usual bright shining glee
no sunny rays daring to blast this heart in me.

There were bees in the garden, sunshine on the corn
kids playing in the yard, me sad at being born.
No clouds flying, no hard pelting rain to crash down
yet here I sit my forlorn face wearing a frown.

My thoughts wander into happy days in my past
great loves destroyed, treasures not ever meant to last.
There comes the black cloud, dark one in its fated role
another curse eating my tired, unhappy soul.

I can not write any good words this saddest day
no rice in the pudding , no pitchfork in the hay.

Yes now that you mention it, I've actually looked at her face..
She sho' bez a stunner, just the kind that once wrapped me into their web..
No more sexy and lustful spiders for me my friend.
Because their bites are vicious and can even be deadly...--Tyr

What face?

[Tyr-Ziu Saxnot]

What face?

I didn't see her face the first dozen times I looked. Yet her face matches as its a very pretty face.
Glad you replied as it gave me a chance to ogle her once more..
It was women like that which gave me such pleasure and caused me such massive grief as a young man.
They be hot in more ways than one my friend..-Tyr
