Posted: 11/3/2009 6:56:13 AM | The Spell
Cast thee a spell
Oh true magician
Wave they grand wand and free this kind soul
The henchmen hired or radical ladies
Push them afar
Far from this fold
The wizard showing no true believers
Just shattered promise and sunburst skies
An ageless talent for the simple
The dandy girl with her deep down reply
Let the magic please offer and most humbly conceive
Enchantment in the eyes of those who would believe
Buried near in a hillside forest
A cave of wonder and a creek side spot
The magic is formed high in the crown forest
As the wind is chimes and owls do top
The temple window rising above us
As stars bring visions undenied
Create the moments we all dream of
The magic unspoken and our hearts so alive
I drift in the forest and haunt some dear lady
Afraid to let go and to no longer survive
Let distance and reason prevail in the window
Set her free dear passage
She is the lonely time ride
The calm and cool the deliberate woman
A swan can swim free with only feathers behind
Cast me down weeping waters to a heart so wished for
And hope spells we are versed in
Will serve us sometime. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 6:59:12 AM | A Woman Desired
Do you know who you are
Is your taste as sweet as peaches sent
Love's fruitfull kindness spilled over
And will you last past the fifty-year song
She who would morn my loss and lingers near
Willing to trust as I am the giver
The one tempted as I am from temptation
Tossed in my bed all evening
Legs wrapped tightly and temper fair
The timid wanting to be touched
Afraid of love's sorrow
The lasting friend
A woman I desire. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 7:20:17 AM | A Day In September
On a day in September
No one really knew
About the death and destruction
Except the evil twenty-two
As radical Muslims
On four separate planes
From New York to Boston
For political gain
With tanks topped with jet fuel
And targets well known
From unholy minds
To make and Arab cause shown
Massive Twin Towers
That gleam in the sun
The symbol of our system
A war soon begun
As they taxi along
No one is aware
What evil is onboard
And the plans that they share
From high in the heavens
Like a bolt from the sky
The victims are found
Soon a nation will cry
At the Pentagon in D.C.
And on Flight 93
Death was soon dawning
As we watched on t.v.
Some died in the plane crash
Others jumped from on high
With the smoke and the flames
How could any survive
And just when our worst fears
They suddenly came true
Two Towers came crashing
Killing all trapped we knew
The EMS, the police and the firemen
The ones who bravely rushed inside
The heroes from the Port Authority
They are now angels on high
For misery strikes
From unhappy minds
The misguided few
The religiously blind
They think that their plan
Was executed so well
Because civilians were killed
When our Twin Towers fell
But I'm glad to inform them
They were not even close
The targets they missed
Are what we treasure the most
They aren't cast in buildings with mortar or stone
No strong beams of steel
An office or home
No the targets I speak of
Are very much real
They live in our hearts
The beliefs that we feel
It's justice and freedom and living in peace
This passion for elections
By a people who are free
Just ask the down trodden
On the streets of Iran
An election was stolen
When religion showed it's hand
As Neda lay bleeding
From a gunshot so near
A nation was shown
What we hold so dear
That some things are worth dying
And you never will kill
The story that started
At our Bunker Hill
We have fought for this freedom
At Normandy and Pearl
Against monsters much greater
Than some martyrs who kill
We come back even stronger
When our freedom is attacked
Just remember the brave passengers
When Flight 93 boldly fought back.
I know we are not perfect
Mistakes have been shown
And Palestine should live
Where once was their home
The land that they cherish
Is now a holy Jewish state
And for love and understanding
We should give up on hate
Let all of earth's children
Share all this sacred land
And live in peace and harmony
For as long as we can
For life is too short
To suffer in fear
The pain and uncertainty
Shown in our children's tears
So no more dear young one's
Are scared in the night
Or left without parents
Because of four deadly flights. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 7:31:08 AM | Next To You
When my body is long forgotten
As my time is no longer mine
I will haunt inside your mind forever
No ghost to frighten just a memory fine
Of hours spent lying beside you
The joyful cares that I leave behind
For lovers crossed and ageless lessons
That roam your bed and make you sigh
I am the lover not long forgotten
As you spread for me till morning light
The kiss of earth and tongue so golden
That makes you quake and feelings denied
Take me quickly and hold on tightly
The good inside of your hips I find
A girl who loves me and wishes only
For love of man and story kind
The tranquil settings we did enjoy then
The sunset lovers of another time
The daunting task of missing forever
My lover mine. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 7:34:14 AM | A Life Wasted
Gather near the edge of my heart
Put aside for I am no longer
For all of salvation I cannot depend
Just open pity and a mosaic of lost chances
If I could retrace my past and fly so young again
Would I still sail off course and never reach land my friend
The trouble toy of life is what I have confused
A noble heart was deep inside of me
As I must confess the simple ways weren't always clear
I knew I would pay
I took the easy way. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 7:54:21 AM | Every September
For long lonely years
We have mourned and cried
The pain and grief from that evil time
As pictures are held up every year
We can't forget the fear
Too close so near
The height and flames
It's deadly name
From all above no one remains
When angels taunted all around
As this became such holy ground
The twisted logic
The total blame
From life's mad choices
Most are the same
A gift from God
We do proclaim
Then shoot their children
Blood red as rain
This must end
We all do pray
To find our peace
From this September day. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 7:58:57 AM | Loves Chosen
I lay in the dark
Despondent and quiet
Hoping you are near and love survives the despair within
I have cried countless and worried past sadness for a girl like you
Shameless in her willingness to be with me always
Quick to defend who loves her unquestioned
As her hand slips gently into mine
Her lips are seeking to caress the man
Floating over my needs and shifting pillows to lie close to me
You are the one I have wished for
No words can describe your smile placed in my eyes
Your touch drifting upon my shoulder
Or your body laying across my bed submissive
The chosen willing to pursue lustful reason and sad longings
That nothing is forever
Except this love we share. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 8:04:07 AM | The Quiet Front
When the smoke it clears
And the guns are finally silent
When the battles are over and time is standing still
For men so lost and torn asunder
The ghost of many haunt this hill
Our boys are home but for a moment
Their angel wings whisper in flight
Screams are heard when the wind it passes
Pushed to early graves from our sight
The victims held through long cold ashes
A victory stained so sad today
A golden rule that wasn't followed
Peace to all who march this way
Who brave the cold and death of valor
A misery placed on the souls of man
Our loved ones sacrificed for the fools of purpose
None of this I will ever understand
The waste and destruction to behold here
The pain of others sent to fight
No quiet call to end this battle
Just loved ones left crying in the night. | |
|
| The Spell by Motleysdad
Posted: 11/3/2009 8:07:39 AM | Let Peace Reign
The simple scene of a woman and her child
A puppy plays and love is dialed
The sunshine sweet with a passive breeze
No danger near or in the trees
What allows this scene and it's coming grace
No push for land or atomic race
The one known truth that allows this scene
No blast of war or ghetto scream
We all must share this blame that's due
The impassive indifference of what is true
We rarely care unless it's at our door
The look of war and so much more
Let live in peace and hold so dear
The short little time that we are here. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 8:22:22 AM | The Devil's Race
Dark stallion flying towards the black
Spark metal shoes on stones roadside
Down the winding
Soldiers follow
Pour the wicked brances low
This moonlit ride this raven scene
Pound thy hooves as whip and warrant both give chase
No jail for certain just the devil's race
Hold for life as a dozen follow
Metal through a ghostly hollow
Thundering hooves roll judgement day
As judge and jury hunt I pray
Two bends ahead I swiftly ride
The powers that be force this lie
No trial forgiving or sentence worthy
Just potent equine judge and jury
Trust a stallion's step and my silent wiles
Through hills well traveled far and wide
Down a path unseen as we have before
To listen to their quieting roar
As fly they do...right on by
Shouts and curses fade to a birdsong's sigh
We slow and I let him breath at ease
Out a path far northern and soaking wet
We shake as cold is upon the morning yet
No sunrise cast just the barest of light
The beloved steed and myself free and alive
With mulligan waiting after our midnight run
The bush and broom have candles burning among
My horse is feed and stabled quietly
Mead and stew host my thoughts alone and silently
As last night from the army escape was made
To dream the ride all over as if a price must be paid
Sleep falls and in the lonely hills I ride
In my solitude the task runs daunting or so it seems
To stand and fight without losing your life or what you believe
A challenge remains from the long drawn sword
The chaliced jeweled decree from a vengeful lord
A shout for blood as a gang does pursue
As fear is the marker alone within my view
When captains and soldiers both give chase
It's death if I'm captured
That's the devil's race. | |
|
| The Spell by Motleysdad
Posted: 11/3/2009 8:26:29 AM | Will We Fight Forver
The anguished faces carved in blood
All heaven lost as demons pray
The tears of many cold on my shoulder
Bloodied together for others folly
When no more is left that bears their name
Will we ever leave this hate behind
Or shall duty call till kingdoms ruin
This lucid soldier driven valiant
No tremble in his hand held so
With sword or lance or dagger deed
No winds of change land heartfelt true
The trumpet call and marching masses
The hate and piety of ego's cast
Our solomn oaths for the faithful
Become just empty words on fresh cut graves. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 8:36:36 AM | The Scarlet Rose
Passion's mine through heavy doors
Once I cling to her sultry form
Took years to find what I was searching
A go between and truthful charm
A voice of amulet quiets the alarm
I heard of a legend from a scorcers tale
Of a charm long hidden to bring love without fail
A single deep rose
Beneath a mountain so small
Where snow never fell or at least men couldn't recall
When magic was sprinkled and dust did remain
The destiny envied brought some host great pain
So I traveled the journey in search of petals true
To speak of a feelings felt and what I want to mean to you
Of love like the young and impassioned though years have surely been gained
The cost of indecision and lessons from the pain
The rivers were quite swollen and I swam as never before
I tread the ice and cold of night to love forever more
Of couples betrothed and details I can never explain
I ventured back by your side just to say your sweet name
So I bring to you a dear scarlet rose
What maidens only hope
The feel and will and long engaged
Mine is the spirit aloft in her blithesome way
When her heartbeat and the lessons learned are shared with total joy
By my bed and by my wisdom to all who quest for love
Who search for the joining of devotions only two
Find a scarlet rose and she will be yours
The wind beside you. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 6:55:47 AM | A Secret Young Love
No sadness burdens
As shadow and moonlight
Dark green glades and temperate hollows
Reveal on lone rider flying swiftly
As forest and evening glisten with rain
A sound is whispered
The creaking of saddle and snorting of beast
A second rider tall and slender
Young but unhurried
Swings down and kisses yon maiden
She caresses and leans in
Feeling his arms surrounding her body
He presses her downward
His cloak all around her
A playtime for lovers entwined
For owl and midnight are the only witness
The wind and the winter careening towards them
But they are unaware as legends and love come together
While fathers lament when daughters have vanished and fallen
She pulls away and mounts
Driving hard for home
Before daybreak reveals
Her bed sheets unruffled
And her eyes full of passion. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:03:09 AM | A Girl So Patient
The tender tones give her away
My girl ablaze in her passion
Just an angel set free
Tossed by storms my whole life
This girl who brings me tea and holds my hand when the lightening flies
She settles my being
When laughter performs the impossible and tragedy falls silent
Her willingness to be open and vulnerable
As I become what I truely am
A girl who waits so patiently for me
The lady knowing my secrets
Tells not a soul
As her lips gently brush mine
I witness happiness. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:10:36 AM | A First Crush
Her auburn hair
With a romantic scent unfamilar
I gazed upon her fawnlike eyes
Who was this apparition
She appeared during a time of awakening
No childhood pal
Or sweetheart future
Somewhere between a first kiss
And artful love intrepid
The overwhelming temptation
Over shadowed normal childhood games
We lingered till dusk
A summer always near her
Obvious carefree teeagers
Her body never shared
A regret of life
The fall coming fast
With school sending us off
I yearned for her till
Time ran it's course
And other young girls
Soon took her place
But memories are like blankets
Covering our youth
And she was the first
The emotion still holds firm
Even today I can recall fertile feelings
As childhood resides
In past thoughts and glances shared
The shy doe
Stands very still
As the nervous young buck
Approaches. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:17:25 AM | A Lover's Cry
I ache for her
As I always will
Pleading for patience and posting a lover's cry
Once I met a girl who played with my heart
She told me that she loved me so
Then I slipped quietly out of her mind
Through vitures and silent drama my days sped on
Believing that love was near I cast my fears aside
For mornings bring new hope and springtime chases winter woes
I have learned to survive my desert isle
To wait for the tropic rain to quench my thrist
One true love was meant for us all
We just have to wait and she will be there
A girl
A voice
My love. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:25:32 AM | A Peaceful Silent Sunday
[Remembering Pearl Harbor]
A peaceful silent Sunday
Reflects Pacific blue
No morning service calls the flock
On this the seventh day
A nations naval calling
Anchors battleship row
Awaiting the enraptured dawn
So many years ago
Six lethal carriers to the north
Aiming wings on high
Low the hillsides Zero's swarm
So many boys will die
Wheeler gave us angels
Who left on earthly wings
Primal oil and prism fire
The West Virginia it rings
While embattled Oklahoma
Rolls her impassive keel
As destined Arizona
Shakes with Lucifer's zeal
A memorial still guarded
Haunts us to this day
Emblazing a red sun
That slowly fades away
Remembering Pearl Harbor
As the coveted ages fly
The day our nations innocence
Forever said goodbye. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:30:27 AM | As Twilight Nears
As still twilight nears I am older now
Wisdom replaces my youth
As a flower blossoms winter's chaos may still it's beauty
We are no longer children anymore
Long ago our eyes gave up on passions equal
Many nights have passed since I dreamed of your existence
I watched the road hoping for a thought from you
But no word or sighting came
Am I foolish to believe that eternal love is still possible
Have disappointments and years spent searchingt hardened my heart
Something as simple as your scent remembered
Or the soft sound you made while sleeping will lead me back to you
The promise of a girl longed for. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:42:20 AM | From A Distance
I know of a girl gentle of spirit
Who touches all with tenderness
Her heart I cherish from a distance
She who shows kindness and caring so sincere
The quiet way she counsels and gives hope
No maiden false just beauty from within where it lays genuine
Her gaze is radiance and melts me to a enduring solitude
As I am the forgotten whose wish is kept silent
I pass as friendship told
Grand pleasures are silver to all
As quiet moments feed the desire
I whisper passive the fleeting time
For she is tied to all who venture and some beauty is false to contain
Her's is the best of what comfort provides
While her distant love is held for others
As her loving light gives me pleasure
To view her is enough as I hold dear the friendship given. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:47:43 AM | Getting On With Life
The house is so quiet as no music drifts from room to room
In the past there was always music
As is her mood she hardly evers smiles
She and I have both known for years it's over
The awkward stillness and the un-spoken thought
No loud argument to signal its final
Just the aimless pity for what could have been
Along with the intelligent surrender of two people tired of fighting
Both weary enough to move on down the road in different directions
No malice just the deep seeded sorrow of quitting
With the memory of a love
When that would never have been possible
How much had changed in such a short time
The rancor and distrust tearing all feelings asunder
Love disappears and lives move on
Sadly simple
Though just as painful. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 7:56:08 AM | Goodbye My Love
She is lost on life's way
A girl from a younger time
Who stayed with me through love
I lament as part of me is missing
Of pain foretold this bears no name
It's earth dug low and lonely
The casket marked and lowered
My angel sleeps not with me tonight but adrift in earth's dear realm
I thought I cried when she passed
Tears beyound recognition
Though nothing aches as much as the pain of her lying there alone
My baby too far away to hold
The dirt between and what is left of me
Ages to the abyss as I am held to a bitter time
The last days to serve till my prison ends and she awaits
A native of my youthful hour
To dance the dance of hopes reunion
Through eons glanced and kisses kept she is back where I desire
If love is measured and held by such
She will stay with me and never leave
My love till always and beyond
Forever as one. | |

Posted: 11/4/2009 8:00:44 AM | I Dreamed Of You Before
Sweet scented soul
Are you the magic in my arms
As mist and morning make way
Ours is the lost art of arrow tossed
I slept one evening and awoke to my own tears
I dreamt of a girl brown haired and quiet
Who loved me at will and waited my arrival
She is not purity but human and frail
As kindness she has no equal
Fauna and hope cling to her skirt
As she is the one I dreamt of before
No vision this time
Only happiness finally given and love finally found. | |
|
| The Spell by Motleysdad
Posted: 11/4/2009 8:06:14 AM | I Once Held You
How do I tell you
Of the lost tears shed
The empty abyss
The lonely cold
We were once lovers with a joy
The kiss unrequested
An emotional touch
Your warmth next to me
Two sparrows ready for flight
The world waiting for our eyes to behold
Your faint pulse wrapped into a woman's love
You fulfilled my happiness
A lasting peace that holds a heart deep down
But you let me go thinking me unworthy
Not knowing all that I am
The merchant sold
The match over
I know you weep but have not the strength to return
Be happy even without me
I loved you enough
To want the best in your eyes and heart
Smile in the morning
And let whoever your with
Know the feeling I once held
And sadly miss. | |
