Mother

Mother

Roses for mother,
Lillies too,
Mothers love flowers,
The beauty is resemblant of her.

Grace and beauty,
She sits on her thrown,
Applying her makeup,
Which was a needless fascade.

As she gracefully glides,
As she shops with...

Healing

Healing

Farmers are the doctors of the land,
Even though loggers deforest,
They do replant seedlings.

Bees pollinate flowers,
Allowing flowers to flourish,
The beauty abounds.

Nature heals the soul,
The soul joys in nature,
Pleasing...

Cities are they

Cities are a they

She gives us flowers,
She gives us land to play,
She provides beauty to gaze upon,
She gives us water ways,
So boats can glide upon.

He gives us buildings to the sky,
He gives us roads of tar,
He gives us statues to...

Dance with 3 partners

Dance with 3 partners


As I gaze from my earthly position,
I view the heavenly moon,
Embrace,
Cover your partner,
The glowing,
Gassy ball of light.

 
Momentarily engulfing parts of the earth,
In a sea of nigh,
Offer a diamond,
To the...

Lickspttle

Lickspittle

In today’s society,
There are son many lickspittle persons,
In government,
On the street,
In media.

It’s sad the people can’t be real,
The need to suck up,
Back stab,
Manipulate and destroy.

It’s horrible for a soul,
The...

Machines

What the machines don’t know

The machines don’t know my name,
The machines don’t know what is is to breathe.

Just like Data from Star Trek,
A machine can seek to feel touch,
But never will.
Or Dave from Space odyssey,
Feel compassion.

Living in words

When I live in words

I feel challenged,
I feel free,
I feel centered.

To live in words,
Is to be in essence,
To envision ,
To be graceful.

The greats of yesteryear,
Painted images,
They put images to operas and song,
Or verse.

Life

Our stream becomes a ocean

Life can not exist,
Steams become rivers,
Rivers become estuaries,
Estuaries becomes lakes,
And alas become oceans.

A infant is a stream,
A child is a river,
A teenager is a estuary,
A grown individual is a...

Ałiens

Alien

With your supreme brain,
And your celestial knowledge.
As you manipulate figures,
Formulas and ideas.

We the people of the earth.
Destroy our selves,
Through weapons, drugs and airborne disease.

Your presents is...

Happy clowns

Happy Clowns

Clowns make you happy,
Clowns make you sad,
Clowns can make you dance,
Clowns are the reason to laugh.

 
In this world,
We needs clowns,
Not to scare or fear,
But to laugh and smile.

Some wear make up,
Some don’t wear...

Halloween

Halloween
By Laurie Edberg

Ghost and goblins,
Witches and princesses,
Halloween is a time for children to pretend.

Back in pagan days,
Halloween was a prominent day,
The night of Halloween is for spirits,
The next day,
Is all saints...

Halloween is the answer

If Halloween is the answer, what is the question?

This is profound,
This is challenging.

Ghost and goblins,
Princesses and paupers abound,
Candy and treats,
Apples in Carmel,
Cookies with crocked grins.

Pumpkins adorned with carved...

War and peace

War and Peace

Love and loss,
Struggle and pride,
Treachery and morality,
Innocents and depravity.

War!
Leads to deviation
Brutality and immorality,
But brings out the enduring human spirit.

Peace!
Enduring in grace,
Silent in the...

Do I have your heart

I will kiss away your cigeratte burns,
I will hug away your suicide attempts,
I will love away your pain and hurt.

In these days of sorrow,
There is happiness.
In these days of bleakness,
There is light.
In these days of hopelessness
There...
