EYES FROM HEAVEN
preservationman Jul 2023
Observing Earth
Look up
Embrace
I see confusion and unrest
No understanding all contest
No togetherness
I sit high being the witness
The Earth needs wisdom
It comes from the Kingdom
It seems Earth wants to prove
Things are not going smooth
The Earth doesn’t seem to understand
Heaven controls the land
It’s not what you say, but what you do
Spiritual being pursue
There are Earth assignments to fulfill
All under Heaven’s will
The Earth seems to wonder
They must look yonder
There is a must in shall
Stands for all
Heaven’s call
One day being an hour
Earth walks around being sour
Hour after hour
The time will come
You feel lonesome
Heaven is it
The perfect fit
Put on the full armor
Heaven will always be it
Spiritual Fashion fit

OCEAN FLOOR

Fathoms below
Diving slow
Buried treasure to see
Searching for me
Captain Bluebeard had treasure on the ship
A mighty storm caused the ship to dip
Suddenly the ship went down
It was nowhere to be found
Total capsize
Sank to the bottom
Throughout the ocean, there are sharks and all kinds of fish
On my mind was the treasure find being my wish
Through Davey’s Locker
The flashlight being our marker
Ocean floor

Gold and Silver
Determined in maneuver
Becoming rich

It’s all about Quantity
Mystery being reality

Peter Pan
The Magic, Adventure, Entertainment and numerous surprises
A character of pure fun
Peter Pan is never out done
Disney made it all possible in create
Perhaps it was simply fate
Children of all ages enriched
Adults who the saw all the amazes
Peter Pan goes beyond any movie screen
You will understand actually what I mean
Peter Pan fame gained even more distinction through Peter Pan Bus Lines
The Peter Pan name now was a people moving motorcoach
No way in comparison to a stagecoach
Highway all the way

A place known as Springfield, Massachusetts
The countryside, Hills, Lakes and the beauty that makes New England
Peter Pan Bus Lines is part of it all
It all echoes Peter Pan
The ride and comfort
Timetable
Peter Pan Bus lines, a motorcoach still able
Years was its start long before I was born
The time frame was somewhere in the 1900’s
Planning in what Peter Pan Bus Lines would become
Peter Pan Bus lines being a traveling road warrior
The pictures of Peter Pan, Captain Hook and many other characters on the side of Peter Pan Buses for the passengers to admire and think like a kid in their day
Captain Hook is always on good behavior
Just beware of the sword, you never know what Captain Hook is thinking
Now Peter Pan Bus Lines has expanded into New York City, Wilmington, DE, Baltimore, MD and Washington, DC
Peter Pan himself will always be present by way of the front, side and back of bus
Peter Pan Bus Lines being the journey of recline and relax
Forget your troubles and don’t feel perplexed
Away our time went
Thanks for Disney for making a time spent
Just imagine and always dream

GHOSTLY REMINDER
preservationman Jul 2023
A house on Thriller Blvd
It was empty
It looked haunted
I wasn’t sure if I should step in or stay out
My mind went on caution
Yet curious
As I entered the house and moved around
I was confronted by a mysterious image, and it surrounded me
It started chanting and the voice was eerie
At least that was my theory
It turned out to be a Ghost
Unfortunately, it was Casper nor friendly
Chills went up and down my spine
I felt the urg4 for some serious wine
That haunted house had plenty of moans and groans
I thought maybe I should leave this house and the Ghost alone
A mouse was frightened and shaking in a corner
My every moment was a dare
Yet curious with care
What was I thinking?
This was definitely a mystery
Then again, I could be history
This would be the perfect time to run
I want to live being among
Suddenly the Ghost demanded that I get out
I didn’t need any order to tell me that
My thought was your demand is at my command
My mind may have been on disorder
I didn’t move fast enough
I was thinking this is all bluff
However, the Ghost proved his point
The Ghost chanted, “He was David Hess who once lived in the house, but was murdered by a family member”
I was witnessing his spirit
I hope he doesn’t I was the murderer
I am not even a family member
All I could think of feet and legs don’t fail me now
Let me get out of the house oh wow
I ran until I couldn’t run anymore
I can tell you that for sure
I will never forget that haunted house
Flesh of no return

THEME FIREWORKS POET
preservationman Jul 2023
The vision of colors
Words that intensify with every varying assortment
When it comes to spectacular, it’s the amazement in what is to come, and what was transcribed
Beauty in every letter in what they provide
Suppose with no oppose
Every thought captured at the right moment of the angle
A Poet composes every night within
Sometimes bright stars or nightmare element dialog
Imagine fireworks surrounded by the dazzle Poet with their own writing explosion
Explosion
The mind with on a river in mine capturing all the components of delight
Picture the Poet like a Lighthouse being a guiding light
Expectation beyond
Fireworks after fireworks
Preparation and detail
Poet on sight
Get ready for the writing explosive night
No look up just a hook up
Razzle and Dazzle

SHOWTIME
preservationman Jul 2023
Walking down the Great White Broadway Lane
The marquee street
That just came be beat
Some say I could be lame
The dialog of having pride
As the music started to pump up
A reason to sing came
Now hold your ears, they might pop
A dream came true
It was a wonder if I should pursue
It was years in the thinking
A one day to entertain
My inspiring heart that will remain
But there’s more
A need for Acting to explore
At some point, acting came to life
I succeeded without any advice
But it would have been nice
I alone with a multitude cast with sing and acting on the wide stage
Amazement
A dream began to unfold
Let me assure you, I didn’t need to be told
Just bold
My father was an Alcoholic all his life
Many days and nights, I would cry urging my dad to quit
Words of encouragement just wasn’t it
He would argue with me and stating he wanted to die
He didn’t want to live anymore
Never knew the reason
Eventually, he did pass away
I found out later that he felt like a failure being a father
Being an Alcoholic was not the way
It doesn’t end the battle, but keeps one fighting for more trouble
It’s like a constant fall with consistent stumble
Somewhere and somehow, dad is looking down on me
My dad in me is what people see
Legacy inclined
Stepping out on courage
Entertainment nourishment
Applaud-ish

THE ENTHUSIASTIC MIND
preservationman Jun 2023
Alpha letters in responses
The heart well connected
Words of truth and confession
It could very well be a lesson
At times a reflection back
At other times it became hard to even keep track
The mind serving the purpose
Words making sentences all obvious
If I said it, would you believe?
If I wrote you it, would you understand?
A moment in a Poet’s time
Sometimes while I am drinking wine
You saw me, but didn’t recognize
Inspiration calling
You felt encouragement, but desired more
It was your mind that assured you in explore
Brief pause
You started thinking with more ideas
At that point it was the rush of fear
Point to point
Suddenly persuasion set in
Continuation from where you began
Writing and not missing a single beat
No retreat nor defeat
You heard?
Since you are aware
You have shown you care
Pursued
Poet tomorrow and well beyond

SWISS TIME TOWN
preservationman Jun 2023
Once upon
A clock
Behold
Midnight special
Centerpiece
Right in the square
Beware
A Thief struck during the night
The clock had been stolen, but out of sight
The wonder became who and how
The citizens thought oh wow
Everyone was horrified
Some were even petrified
The clock was the attention of the town
Distance far enabled from surrounding communities
Swiss time town was about unity
The clock made Swiss Time Town famous
Acknowledgement
The question that came up was why was the clock stolen?
The clock had value in the hearts of the people, and meant everything to the town’s people
The Thief saw fortune
The long hand made the short hand into a theory
But it was still a mystery
Search after search
No find
The Thief was certainly not kind
Without a visual clock, what will happen to Swiss Time Town?
Moments are ticking, but no sound
The clock is nowhere to be found
The town got together and started connecting to each other in song and inspiring themselves
Until the clock is found being a if and when
What will the town people do until then?
It’s not a time to be discouraged, but embrace one another
Suddenly without warning, the clock appeared back at center in the square as if the thief had a heart or the singing touched the soul of thief
Swiss Time Town relief
Tick tock
The sound of time
Hope came alive
Strive
How about that?
Centerpiece of tranquil
Acceleration will
Happily ever after
Until
Time in, but didn’t die out

STEPPING STONE

Places to be, but have I arrived?
Every defeat a discouragement
Every teardrop farther from achievement
What seems close is a distance
Yet within reach
Determined search
Responsibility in action
At times thinking failure
But that is a bad picture
I must overcome
Lonesome
I will do it alone
This is a conquest
A test
Pass or fail
The mind explores
I am challenged
Step in or step out
Determination burning
Desired hot
Courage is mounting
Endurance is counting
Journey on
No stop nor expire
The hourglass is temporary on pause
I have my own mission clause
Excel into conquer
A door to enter
A go through
Fulfillment
Heaven’s will
I can’t wait and be still
There are assignments I must fulfill
Life has called
I am the answer
I am bold
I hold the key to my own threshold
I am the story told
Observe and behold
I arrived at my destiny
My heart that wouldn’t
Pounded louder in should
The spotlight of my own soul
But wait
I am the wonder and yonder
Walked where others dared
Believe in me
I am what you see
Forgive me
Just let it be

BUS FRIENDS
preservationman Jun 2023
Have a seat, we need to talk
Some say buses have no friends
That might sound like a pretend
Am I really serious?
Why yes
Buses capture a multitude of hearts
That is just the start
Transit buses are the ones that pick up and drop off passenger’s curbside
It’s the convenience they provide
It’s more than just the ride
Motorcoach buses are the ones where you recline back and observe
Relaxing moment, but embracing in comfort
Buses are people movers
It doesn’t matter the force of bus exhaust gets in your throat
It’s reality, but it is a funny joke
Imagine chasing a bus and you actually miss the bus
Everyday routine, but life itself
Buses travel the highways regardless transit or motorcoach as they are the off ramps arriving at various locations whether it be curbside or a terminal
Yet, buses start the daily conversation aboard, and the passengers get to know one another
But at the same time, you get the bus itself
A time riding and you are now both passenger and bus friend
You get the feeling of welcome aboard
Do you still think buses have no friends?
Think vintage, a bus time back
See, you can’t even keep track
Buses have numerous friends pass, current and into the future
You could be one of them, and don’t realize it
The question was asked, and buses are in the hearts
Buses bring people together
For example, in the old Greyhound Bus TV Commercials, there was a point to “Get in Touch with America”
Passenger’s get in touch with America to places they serve
It’s the buses whereabouts and history behind
Buses are simply genuine

HEY PIANO MAN

Yeah you
Play me a melody that’s smooth
My heart needs music that will soothe
My mind in the senses
Sounds embraces
Racing to new heights
Moving on from a plight
It’s a lady friend I remember
We danced being loss in the music
That was once upon time
We dined and drank wine
The environment with the dazzle ball
The scene that was our song
That dance floor was where we belonged
The Piano man hit all the right notes
Those ivories had tempo of their own
There was no need to take a vote
Every dancing step was our jolt
It didn’t matter whether it was uptown or downtown
We were a couple in whatever town
Every note a sound to hear
It made our love so sincere
We kissed being our own sound track
Piano man, take me back to a time that was
I am visualizing in my mind now
A time I will never forget
A loss being my only regret
The music is only a reminder
I was the open lock and she had the key and entered
Heart to heart
My moment in time
Forever yours
All time
Thanks for the memories piano man

MR YOU KNOW WHO
preservationman Jun 2023
You think you are so tough
You act rough
Your mannerisms are enough
Everywhere is your turf
When it comes to the beach and swimming, you don’t even know how to surf
Your diamonds say bling
You are playing the big and bad thing
You think you are like a ****
Some see you as the Goodyear blimp
Contrary of your mind
Women no how to tame
You are just lame
You might act tough on the streets
Gangs are strong and they know how to bring you down to defeat
Your aim with a gun misses the target every time
You are gentle on the inside
Yet show exterior of power on the outside
Your demeanor tells a whole different story
You think you are in your glory
But wait
It will be shown that you are not tough at all
Power is what you think you have
You can’t control which you don’t own
You are acting full blown
The streets have your number
Be careful where you slumber
You are like an hour glass, your time is almost up

Where have you been
Darkened with uncertainty
No place to be found
Chanted spiritual songs within one’s encouraging thought
I need to be free
I pray to thee
Thunder raw
Lightening outburst
Slavery was hard and tormented
Beaten and torn
Sunrises being a forbidden rise
Working on those cotton fields
Plantation ordeals for real
Wounds showing the many rebels
Trapped in a prohibited society
No pity
Freedom only a thought
Praying and constant praying
Singing upon singing
The slaves hope surrounded up in Heaven
Numerous cries heard
In 1862, the Emancipation Proclamation was documented, and Freedom became the word’s that Afro-Americans needed to hear
No more worry some of fear
It took place in Galveston, Texas
Years upon years of denial
Not knowing where nor if
Heaven the many outcries
Crisis finally came to an end
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom
From Slavery life into the light of the earthly kingdom
Sacrifice proven
Land’s wisdom
Dwell doers
The raw of thankful emotion
Smooth breezes and calm oceans
Life was and will be worth living
The call for Freedom
Emancipation at its best

It seemed like a creation within
Motions took place on the body outside

Beyond moving in my stood
I began to see life different
The skies began to associate into my destiny of the new frontier in living
Reason having a purpose
Focus

The voice sounded awesome
Encouraging and suddenly I was enriched inspiration
For the first time in my life, the struggles were more tolerate in not worrying
I stepped into my fountain of refreshing
I was now coming out of the forbidden fruit
Through spiritual thinking, I was on the top of the mountain
Distance far below in the valley

A time of lack of Faith
Refusing to believe
Plenty of doubt
From Ancient to present
Heaven’s Faith recaptured
Through motions of the spirit
From reflections from above
It took time after time
Even when souls were drinking wine
It wasn’t an easy task
Through revolving time Faith came fast
Suddenly Faith had a meaning
But it took convincing
From past tense to current tense
Faith was tested within itself
Faith is independent and is its own self
Testimonies confessed
Miracles supported on contest
Victories became conquest
Faith found its way into the world’s heart
Believing was the key start
Accelerated from one heart to another
Faith goes to every I
But can Faith be maintained?

Who’s there?
A Giant says he
Being tall

People are like toys
Looking over the colony
Think of me as your majesty
King high above
A tall tree
My footsteps are my mark
Traces of where I have been
I am tall from the top to the end
Witty and smart
The colony fears me
I am sight to seek
The Earth shakes when I move
It’s powerful in what I want to prove
That Jack is always being my search
He wants a battle with me
Who do you think will win?
Destiny my reward
A battle with a sword
I have a cold colony heart
Don’t let my temper stir up
I don’t get none
Alone and among
The Giant needs love sometimes
Happiness is sitting up in a tree
Searching but no find
A colony that is never kind too me
What do I do?
Otherwise has no surprise
This Giant just sits and waits
Let me stomp my foot loud in approval

GREATER THAN
preservationman Jun 2023
Greater than
Praises in why
Mighty in power
Hour by hour
Strength in courage
Above all
Conquering beyond any stall
The world knows
Refusing to accept
Even during slept
Greater than I
Thy
The beauty to the highest
Heaven’s finest
Far beyond man’s comprehension
Heaven’s attention
Truth in measure
Equality reality
One speaks
Gets understanding
One disagrees
Forbidden fruit
One gospel song
Guidance that comes along
Greater than
Greater will

OLD BONES
preservationman Jun 2023
It finally happened
I am old
My own behold
Every step an effort
Every movement determination
Pain I won’t let hold me back
Years of living my track
Honored to be old
Wisdom gained
Young bones become old bones
Not ready for the grave
Wonder behind every shave
Getting some shade
My hair might be white
Wisdom and don’t take it light
Longevity
The bones flexible
Mobility
Old bones
Knowledge with a threshold
Old bones
Strength
Movement every length
Senior Citizen to the world
Listen young bloods
Getting old is an honor
Young bloods, you have yet to see what I have seen
You think you know, but don’t
Keep living and you shall
The pudding is in the movement
Old bones are golden treasure
Years of pleasure in good measure

ONE DAISY AT A TIME
preservationman Jun 2023
Abundance
Plentiful
Greenery effect
One breeze
One blow
Essence of Daisy’s
The wonder of Mother Nature
Beauty within the breezes
Relaxed and at ease
Daisy’s Daisy’s Daisy’s
Mind intact and not crazy
Content
Spring if what you represent
A time to live
Respect to give
Living among
A world still revolving
Acceleration
The creation
Picking up more Daisy’s
Blowing causing coordination
Distinction of green healthy grass
A moment to last
One Daisy at a time
Several breezes of all kinds
An environment that is genuine

FORBIDDEN TOMORROW
preservationman Jun 2023
A world that changed
No Inner characteristics rearrange
Mirror reflection broken
Forbidden words spoken
Hearts full of hate
Tomorrow may very well be too late
No eye to eye
No reason why
Respect went out of the door
Ignore
No care
Spells beware
Forgotten purpose
Obvious
A wonder indeed
According to the world, this is how one should proceed
No forgiveness
No understanding
Tomorrow is supposed to be what the world projects
True effect
No thinking
No reason
Tomorrow locked into a dark shade
This is not what Heaven made
Tomorrow Tomorrow
No day
Where do we go from here?

OPTION PRAYER ONE
preservationman May 2023
Praying being the only way
No time for going estray
Praying is vital every day
Perilous times
A world that refuses to be kind
Pretend with no genuine
Uncertain ways
Surely during these uncertain days
A world that is corrupt
That is not the Lord’s make up
Faith embraces joy and peace
The world needs to believe that at least
Love that has gone to hate
Not God’s appreciate
This the world must hesitate
Accept him before it’s too late
Earth to the Kingdom
The Lord is wise
Our spirit can be energized
The Almighty I must emphasize
Promise and purpose goes along way
Certain on every bound
Hallelujah having a sound
The removal of the doubted curtain

Praying is the key
Understanding is what you will see
It comes from Thee
Breaking barriers that hold some in the world back
God knows how to keep track
Overcoming and sustaining
Boundaries that the world has put before them
God is strength in climbing mountains
Rise from the valley’s below
Don’t need to be there
God is preserver
Always near
We need to share
Praying with a purpose and reason
Watch your blessing rise to the surface
Can and shall
The Lord doesn’t want anyone to parish
Something we need to cherish

The world thinks tomorrow
Holds on to sorrow
The Lord says rise
Be strong
Again, pray being sincere
Honest and true
The God’s pursue
The world to fulfill
Pray openly from your heart
The start
Don’t reject from God
That’s a depart
That wouldn’t be smart
Pray until
God’s will
Let the praying begin
Having no end
Observe and see
It’s all about Thee
Praying is the only option
Purpose and redemption
Faith will become strong
The Lord wants us to get along
Trust and don’t cease
Believe in the Lord at least
God is love
Everything one can think of
Pray until
Only option being God’s will.

SUNDAY MORNING
preservationman May 2023
A reason to rise
A reason to give thanks
A Day to rejoice
A Day to honor
Glory being lifted voices
Testimony having a story
The multitude of tears
The presence having no fears
Fulfilled promise
The Lord said
Pray and be filled
The Lord’s will
Loud Hallelujah
Turnaround to a new beginning
Lord Lord Lord
Hallelujah again
Amen

We don’t need another Hero
Private Dancer
Rolling on the River
On Silent Wings
These are only a small sample of the many songs recorded by Tina Turner
She flew into her tomorrow
Fans around the globe feeling sorrow
Ms. Turner performed always her powerful dance
Fans always excited at her concerts being captivated like in a trance
She moved in pulsating motions and a voice of an angel
Transcended peace
Ms. Turner will always be remembered as an ICON
Her own blend even to the end
Ms. Turner’s determination always had a preserver
Her soulful spirit soaring through the skies
The Legend roaming with Thy
Ms. Turner having a story of contemporary
The moment of pause only temporary
Yet her soul will be among our hearts forever
Ms. Turner lived her purpose and destiny out
If there was a message she would leave her many fans, I believe it would be, “Be determined and just do it. Be your own best”
Ms. Turner left me with, “Can, Shall and Will”
She now above all
A journey well spent
Heavens sent
Her time not our time
To be remembered and never forgotten
Until, Until, Until
It’s not goodbye
Ms. Tina Turner is rejoicing with Thy
We shall meet again.

HUMPTY DUMPTY FLAVOR
preservationman May 2023
Humpty Dumpty they say had a fall
He actually stood tall
Every child’s dream
At least that’s what it would seem
It was a only a slight crack
It was because he got a smack
He made have been formed from an egg
Humpty Dumpty wanted to be heard
It was his way in beg
He was a Fairy tale celebrity
He was every kid’s reality
Throughout the world and US cities
Humpty Dumpty’s emotions were witty
Some might say ahead of his time
Some might even say, he wasn’t genuine
This is my updated version in my mind
Vision beyond
Yes, I am still young
Living among
Something to think about upon
Humpty Dumpty dialogue as a child was fun

What do persistent and pursue have in common?
It’s the sensational Superstar Billy Graham
Wrestling champion czar
I met and spoke personally on several occasions at Tom Minichiello’s Mid-City Gym in New York City
Wrestling vision with characteristics for winning
Inspiration, Idea and Fulfillment coming together
Mr. Graham’s concentration of exploration
Wrestling courage accomplished
His purpose forming established
Connection with precision
Professional champion throughout
Eyeing the opponent’s eye to eye
Thinking strategy wise
Maneuvering with a mindset
Roars of Fans chanting, Superstar Billy Graham
No holds barred
In any given Friday night, I would be glued to the TV of professional wrestling
Total enjoyment
Total excitement
Anticipation
The thrill of challenge and being challenged to the fullest
The spectrum in skills of Superstar Billy Graham
Achieving, Succeeding, Prepared
Superstar Billy Graham always the champion standing on stage
He had strength in physical and charisma
Wrestling for years
But there was another preserver
Mr. Graham had interest in the sport of Bodybuilding
Often you would see Superstar Billy Graham training intensely in not only for wrestling, but Bodybuilding as well
He appeared on the Bodybuilding stage in competition, but never won any Bodybuilding contest
He proved he had courage to do it and test the waters of possibility
Mr. Graham for me is Mr. Sensation and Consistency with achieving in his own right
Greatness being solid as his herculean body
If Superstar Billy Graham had any departing words, if would probably be “Thank you to all my Fans, you encouraged me to be who I am in becoming a Wrestling Champion”
Always discover the champion in you in finding out who you are in your destiny
Don’t mourn for me, but remember my legacy
Always believe in yourself
Enrich your own reflection
Learn through trial and error
Be the true you, but always have a pursue
Superstar Billy Graham’s moment now
Soulful task
Through time acceleration
Heaven bound
I leave you now
Until we meet again.

COMMENCEMENT VOICE
preservationman May 2023
Stand
But sometimes you will fall
It will become a stumble
Get back up
It’s life preparing you
It’s called Trial and Error
It started at your very school pointing that out
Pitfalls in what you can expect
It became the learning concept of adaption
Prepared in advance

Every opportunity is giving you the reason to excel
Purpose has set the stage
It’s you being the commodity of your own
The spotlight is on you
Go out and use what you learned
It won’t be easy
There will be challengers
It will seem difficult
Stumble and Fall
But always get back and plan your strategy
Don’t set boundaries, but organize your standards
Don’t accept excuses, but prove abilities

Guide me through where I need to be
Direct me to my destination
Distance between Day and Night
Total darkness
Headlights through the unknown territories
Trucks signaling in changing lanes
Overhead in the sky a flying plane
Detours leading to wrong exits
Unfamiliar towns
You wonder if you breakdown in will you be found
Deserted backroads
Nothing scene for miles
Being worried while
Still one headlight being the only one driving
Signs everywhere through towns reading Entering and Leaving
Lonely highway all around you
Suddenly night is becoming the next day of sunrise
A yesterday became a tomorrow
Anticipation and hope sets in
Continuing journey from begin
Getting closer to the destination
Hesitation ceases
Expectation becomes high
Finally arriving at designated point
Lonely highway was only a moment, but arriving determined.
