cry, night, heaven, Stars
...
WOULD YOU NOTICE?
Would you notice the heavens crying
when evening stars are falling?
Would you notice the crocodile tears
as the lake meets the ocean?
Would you notice my heart beating faster
when you are in the room?
Would you notice I was missing when
my heart was packed and gone?
Would you notice heaven calling
night after night?
Would you notice the waves upon the ocean
and the distance of the seas?
Would you notice my heart bleeding
as hopes drown as I cry on my knees?
Or would you take for granted another nights
sky filled with many stars
and not even notice that one was missing?

I CRY
your tiny hand in mine as you entered this world
you were joy to me and I could not help but cry
when you deceived me so I wept so agreived
at the thoughtlessness of your lie
the quiet sobs of weeping
the salted shadows that falls from windows pain
and there always will be one, shedding crocodile tears
when in life something you seek to gain
or Job's tears that adorns the ladies neck
tear shaped beads that enclose the seeded kernel
and a single tear drop the heart it so can fracture
while love at ends time is wiped away eternal
so I stood under heavens roof
as dew drops melted with the rain
while I cry from my soul the ache of hurt
and I cry life's song from which I cannot refrain

"Deceptive Voice of Darkeness"If I suicide.
as the dead dance their waltz thru
Cutting is freedom
deceptive the minds slayers that so suggestsMy life continues it's march
why my soul must be so black
I cry soundlessly
deceptive the voice that sings its lullabyas I cry alone.
leaves of broken, shattered glass
As the tears drip down
deceptive the freedom burning redblack hole that engulfs
stifled by all the ennui
I will die alone.
deceptive the temptress that luresblackest blackness falls
Hair hides eyes from sight.
as the dead rise and beckon
deceptive fear rises in hope to gain controlSilent streams of blood
I'm filled with disillusion
and must weep for the born
deceptive chains that seek to bindI am so alone
Bleed out eternal darkness
Now I cry alone
deceptive joy that fills the voidThe more I struggle
And I will never see light in daylight hour
My only hope dies
deceptive that hope is goneTears of blood rain down
agony too deep to hold
brooding silently
deceptive calls sweeter still that I might not ignorealone in the dark
I wait, alone, I wait, I wait
deception your name is SatanMaree Long

laughter, joy, reflections, emotions
LAUGHTER RISES
the corner of her lip curls
and begins to produce an auditory sound
manifestation of joy
ti's the brightness of day
that shines through the night
that sound that makes one brave and bold
that sound that unclouds fear of man
that sound that gives myrth of a story untold
transforms the sorry heart
the secret of longevity
that culminates the period that marked
be on your guard laughter of antiquity
for you will find some will reject
you as educated insolence
but triumphant your joy and deep
is your sole the release of magic
that makes your being whole
sudden glory that rises deep within
so what be the cause for such cachinnation
that which may sound exultantly at my success
or bitterly at the failure laid to ground
pure joy unrestrained or
the lack of skill that bursts forth untrained
at the demise of character in another
defuses potential conflict,
disjointed qualities that trespass
against the essential spontaneity of life
brings the life of expression
laughter rises, for it must!
that infects the once held in remission

THESE EMOTIONS
SHOUT, SHOUT LOUDER shout until
you've no voice left
save the wild gesticulations of a mad woman
RUN, RUN FASTER run until
there is no place left
save where you stand and pant for breath
CRY, CRY DEEER, cry until
there are no more tears left,
save the empty sobs of heartache
LAUGH, LAUGH JOYFULLY laugh until
there is no more laughter left
save the joyful heart of bliss
LOVE, LOVE PASSIONATELY until
there is not breath left
save the love of those left behind
DANCE DANCE EXCITEDLY Dance until
there is no more music left
save what rythm is left in the heart
KISS KISS TENDERLY Kiss until
there is no one left
to kiss save the sweet moment
LIVE,LIVE LIFE,live full until
there is no more life to live
save the opportunity to praise God
EAT, EAT HEARTILY Eat until
there is no more room to eat
save the eating of a tasty morsel

WHAT IS POETRY III - Nothing New Under The Sun
What is Poetry when there is nothing new under the sun
A partial formulation of ambiguity
the expression of man
so heightened is the vocabularly
Celebratory words of emotions of events
a dramatic narrative of feelings that must be told
and in that moment savored
as the words begin to unfold
A battle of ideas contained not within
a single frame of mind
but rather the sum of all life
since the beginning of time
Words, words, words from where will you come and
overflow the words and fill these pages
express the joys of life
and the heartache within that rages
A tryanny of souls beg to be expressed
organic - free from human waste
without additives or radiation that
pollute to cherry pick the chaste

hurt, grace, friend, feelings

MIXED EMOTIONS
For with life's breath
comes deep abiding joy
that brings with it birth pains
and those who seek to destroy
"It's a wonderful life" I know
for the movie titled
the seeking of love for
which we feel entitled
but as we walk the soil
so many have trod
we find those who heart
of ill only seek to rob
We gain a friend
but enemy's mount
as loves cry calls
from the Saviours fount
One gives grace to
another but reputation
torn and wounded as
evil sends its deputation
Then gentle voice taps softly
and gives a moments pause
softly at your heart it raps
reminding of eternity's cause
Locked between mixed emotions
as you realise you have taken
your eyes off the Father
pure love momentarily forsaken
Tossing - turning all of
life's complexity and within
the created image found
you realise anger was the sin
So loose yourself in the
Father's house - abide there still
silent listen with intent
and drink there until.....
renewed and mind is clear
and air becomes refreshed
as all hurt feelings
are sorted and so fleshed
retreat, retreat to
protective cover as
recall grace often giv'n
now shown to you - discover.......
