HOUNDMAN COMETH
preservationman Aug 2022
I wear it well
The world can tell
A name given to me by the Greyhound Bus Company
I am the arrive with no depart
The Greyhound eyes
Because I am wise
I am Greyhound’s energized
The thought of lead
My words in how I proceed
The eyes of Customer Service
Travelling bus passengers made that obvious
But Houndman Cometh goes even further than that
There’s a following and it’s hard to keep track
My passion for Greyhound goes way back
It started when I was a tot and moved up into today
Greyhound is relished into my heart in every way
I have toy scale Greyhound, and many other bus models on display
It’s the Houndman Cometh relay
Arrive with a never to depart
Now you know where that name got its start
This is where I will depart.

SLEEPING ROUGH
preservationman Jul 2022
I am on the street
No roof
Sleeping on the pavement
Once lived in a Two Bedroom Apartment
My apartment had assortments
One night there was a knock at the door
I thought should I open or ignore?
It was the Landlord
He stated, “WHERE IS YOUR RENT?”
You see, I was working, but was laid off after working for a company for 12 years, the company was doing bad
It was good bye to this lad
I was on unemployment and received my Severance
I was living off the two sources
I was the only forces
Now the sources have been exhausted
I hadn’t paid the rent in months
The Landlord evicted me at once
The Street is where I nest
Living outside is not the best
The Shelters are not for me
They are not safe you see
Pavement life
Living my own advice
The thought of home is only within me
Alone
No Family
Regrets
Homeless into endless
This is where I roam
The street I call home
My name is not known
I am nowhere to be found
Maneuvering people and car movements are my only sounds.

WOOD SEEN AS COULD
preservationman Jul 2022
No Logs
No Fireplace
No Cookout
The wood was used to craft into Toy Scale Model Buses
Sounds strange?
Yes, Wood was used in creating Genuine Authentic Moving Models
Visualize highway buses, and think of the wood being part of the setting
I am a witness to it
I have in my collection of actual buses made out of wood being the work done by a Deceased Susquehanna Trailways Motor Coach Engineer
How were these buses carved into a bus
It was careful study being the tracing and using cardboard to capture the right detail once the analysis was done
Then came constructing the wood one Carve into design at a time
I am honored to have in my bus collection of 7 Wood bus models from the creator himself and remembrance of a Trailways Motor Coach Engineer
A Motor Coach Operator with more than just drive, but a vision to create into sculpture
Eyes of Wood
Woody detail of could
Design
Craftsmanship that always came out fine.

POET IN A DRAMATIC PROSE
preservationman Jul 2022
Life was nothing
Day was like night
I wasn’t going to be polite
Blinded by darkness
The Winters were bitter
Coldness being my emotions
Cries with no tears
Desperation with every shout
What I thought was mine I could no longer control
Walls were closing in
The finale being my possible end
Alone and broke
No advise
A world that wasn’t nice
People who just don’t care
Trapped in my own dealings
Beaten down to my own selfishness
I was the only witness
Suddenly, I humbled down
I prayed
Never in my life did I pray before
There was a wonder made me explore
Through the many voices I thought I heard
What I was going through was struggles and I wanted them to end
No more hurt and no more suffering
Storms have been all part of my life
No recovery
Yet trapped within my slavery
You haven’t been in my shoes, because we don’t wear the same shoes
Tired of pain
I don’t want to hear excuses
I am reaching the point of no return
My ignorance overpowered believing
Now I am stuck on deceiving
That praying is starting to take effect
My Faith was assured in the Lord
Worry no more
From my head to my toes
The Almighty made it clear
He is always near
Nothing to fear
The record set straight
Understanding maneuvering through any fate
Praying is never too late
That is definitely something to appreciate.

RISE AND THINK
preservationman Jul 2022
It was a Newspaper caption that caught my attention, “RISE AND THINK”
I felt inspiration in those two words
But within, there was hesitation
I was asleep in my mind not wanting to think
I was meant to excel
My own accomplishment having a tell
The rise being my every step of progress
No time for recess
Think being the strategy in making. My life different than any other day and year I have ever experienced
My moment captured in time
Turning point
Rose through the rotation
Motion
Wonderful
Rose to the radiant sunshine
Overcame what has been holding me back
Encouragement
Just rise
Embrace
Taste
Fulfill
Mission
Rise

DREAMTIME
preservationman Jul 2022
Nightmares that come to life
Directions needing advice
Through the subconscious mind no one expects
Be still as the dreams manifest
Unfold
The action straight out being bold
Wonders through the mysteries
The focus on your own history
Untold stories circulating through your mind
Almost near Death
Fear you hold dear
The Outer Limits of your own extremes
Standing along by a stream
Transcending possibilities
Face to Face with your realities
Still on pause
Dreams are the reason being your cause
The body responds
Yet no yond
You are trapped in your own cave
Disobedient as you didn’t behave
Troubled spirits within
Transcend
Take everything of your dream in
Still dreaming
Hoping
Intensifying
Dreams are waiting for your reaction
Dare to Dream the impossible
Extremes
Beyond
Arrived
Wake up
Dreamed upon
You are still among
Destiny the dreams expelled
Destined now
The dreams showed you how

DIARY ENCHANTED
preservationman Jul 2022
Dear Diary
My moment taking a minute
I write because I found love
At first, I wanted love, but wasn’t being loved
It all changed in a big turnaround
The kiss on my lips is what started it all
It caused my body to have expelling eruptions
Then it was followed by sensations
Love had taken me over
My ***** were being fed because I was hungry, but became full
I am the witness
My room felt like a hot summer night
All intense
Temperatures seemed to rise
Energized
No need to
No need to emphasize
Love was in control
Took hold
I went over the rainbow
I was truly loved
Now you know
Got to go
Diary moment
Definitely no let down
Heart to Heart pump
Blood rushing

HIGHWAY TRISTAR
preservationman Jul 2022
Intercity bus travel that takes you far
You don’t need your car
Small Towns and Major cities
State to State
Scenery that passengers will appreciate
Picture taking to formulate
Rural Bus Stations to Terminals
The road with the Greyhound Bus in Control
America’s Icon Company that has been around
Destinations anywhere can be bound
A Bus company that operates around the clock
Maneuvering that never stops
On-Time performance in arriving on schedule
Sometimes buses can be late
Yet it is situations that the company doesn’t anticipate
Greyhound buses roll Day and Night
The headlights tell the story in plain sight
Bus Drivers greeting one another with in on and off flashing lights
Road bound
Now that describes the bus Hound
Greyhound then
Still now
That is the Greyhound bus know how
Towns folks often wave
America comes up close
Look no further than the Greyhound bus
You will always be shown the way
Welcome Aboard!
preservationman Jul 2022
It all started with World Wars
Drafts for men were expelled
Some men who didn’t want had to compel
But Highway buses had to continue to operate
Bus travel is how passengers associate
Men were caught in war details
Bus operations couldn’t just fail
How would highway buses still operate being dominated by men?
Women applied for the task
They were hired in numbers fast
Women knew they had what it took to drive a bus
The country was going into war and there was no fuss
Some women drove trucks
Driving a bus would no problem
It was a matter of putting on the bus uniform
Operating on schedules being the norm
Praise the women who had the courage to pursue the highway bus driving career
Today, women are driving in the Greyhound preserver
The chance to pursue
Men might say, this is something new
Women bus drivers became known
History has shown
Women now drive in highway coaches and transit
No one thought women would catch on
They proved they know how to get along
It goes to show you  “Women have Drive”

YESTERDAY’S WIVES
preservationman Jul 2022
Some say a day of the ordinary
Others might say extraordinary
Wives that were married to Husband’s who cheated
No honesty, but pure deceit
Husbands would prance out with other women on the side
Some Husbands would even do it where they used to reside
There was no Wives love
It was all Forget Me Not
Wives tried to be faithful, but how do you be faithful when Husbands were cheating on the side
Wrong was going to be right as the Wives themselves were going out doing their thing
Partake was going to be called for Heaven’s sake of love
Seems like a relationship battle
It was by way of Tick Tac Toe
Even score
The Wives were putting their former Husbands on notice by way of know
Affection at its best depending on which side you were on
The Husbands could care less
No one wants to concede
It seems the Husbands were doing thing
The Wives had found their individual fling
Yesterday has turned tomorrow in a big way
Both sides are like the runway with all having their get away
Husbands swinging and Wives fulfilling
Yesterday’s Wives with their outside missions to please
Everyone maneuvering at ease
Let’s see how long this will last
Yesterday’s Wives all in heat
It’s between the sheets
Yesterday’s Wives outcome.

EYE OF JOURNEY’S
preservationman Jul 2022
Around and Around
Traveling through destinations one journey at a time
Where your journey takes you, nobody knows
Expectations feeling like sensations
Efforts leading into opportunities
There’s no telling where journey’s will make their mark
But it becomes learning experiences to fulfill
It won’t be complete until
Pass your own possibilities quiz as the drill
Circulation should be flourishing appreciation
Seeking advice as suggestions
Thinking on what you never thought
Forgetting on the never will
Yet, only you yourself who knows their true self
It is not about everybody else
Think of yourself in a Time Capsule with a mission
It’s about precision
Coming to your decisions
Followed by purpose and reason
Why the journey?
The only way to find out is too explore
The answer will be in your own journey
But remember, you must observe
You will not notice right away
It will be what you learned being a take away
Trust me, it will be straight understanding
This is where Learning and Development take place
It is not a waste
Time well spent
It’s where your expectations went
Go where you have never gone before
Journey in with continuation out.

SHOE IN
preservationman Jul 2022
Feet go in and out
Walking pavements moving about
Sometimes shoes fit just right
At other moments feeling tight
Sometimes shoes make feet ache
The thoughts that surround being for Heaven’s Sake
It’s all about comfort and style
Being confident while thinking while
Shoes having the right look
A picture taking session in took
It doesn’t matter if its Casual, Formal or Business
You are the only that can testify being the witness
That is what makes you a Shoe In.

BARSTOOL BINGE
preservationman Jul 2022
A barstool sit in don’t you move
I am here to get my drink on and frustrations to prove
I have a job which I am not enthused
Drinking might sound overused
I am at the bar to think
I am drinking away troubles
I can’t even imagine how my day went
I know it wasn’t good with no heaven sent
Getting my drink on
For me, it is like an anecdote to help me move along
I know what you are thinking, a bar is no place to get away from situations
It only adds to more extensions
The barstool has become my friend
I am drunk and won’t pretend
Drinking is my therapy to relax
Yet I am still feeling a little perplexed
Getting my drink on
I am at where I should belong
Now I felt off the barstool
I am looking like a fool
Perhaps I should jump into a pool
Someone helped me up from the floor
It was a stranger, but I am not sure
I am so drunk, and I am saying things that make no sense
Everything I say is passed tense
The night is young, but I feel old
The barstool is my threshold
Let me try to make it home
I am glad I live alone
I crashed on the bed
Drunk beyond drunk
My whole is nothing but bunk
I feel like I am nothing but a low life punk
Tomorrow will be another story
I must take a look at image in the mirror being my own inventory
End of story

DREADFUL CIRCUMSTANCES
preservationman Jul 2022
Eyes on the nation
Situations occurring
No narration needed
How did America even get into serious situations?
Situations that have caused people to be murdered and even hospitalized
Throughout all this turmoil not even an apology
Guns in the hands with a purpose to ****
Missions with strategies to fulfill
The world often asks themselves in will they be next?
Sometimes wonder circulates as people even step out their doors
Media news you can’t ignore
Anguish runs through America’s minds
It’s not something sublime
Its reality being truth
Everyone says change must come
But change comes from within everyone who thinks differently in these dreadful
Circumstances
But the same scenario keeps continuing
Its people that must change in order for a change to be a reality
Change must rise in how people think and associate with others
The idea of hate must form togetherness in becoming relate
Right now, we are living in fate
People must appreciate one another and get along with one another
There can’t be I don’t care attitude
Peace must have solitude
We are living in a world that is slowly becoming conclude
What the world needs is love being soothe
Calmness with no worry
Mistakes with sorry
The world can’t change itself as people make up the world
My Grandfather often spoke “IT TAKES ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE TO MAKE UP THE WORLD”
People must change their own narrative in their own justifications
In a world no human created, but why destroy a world that has lots to offer
Some people even think “****” is the way
But what is the cause of one’s negative thinking of others?
Whatever happened in the past let it be buried in the past
The thought of killing doesn’t do wrong, but the exchange in fulfilling
Change your thinking
A world of tomorrow could be eliminated today
Stand for everyone’s life
That is my advice

WORD CHANGER
preservationman Jul 2022
The story in how words influenced the world
It caused sentences to translate
Helped readers to appreciate
It started centuries ago
Follow me and let me show
Going back as far as Ancient Rome
A Ruler wanted to implement laws
Documentation of clauses
It took words explaining in sentences of do’s and don’ts in provisions
From the point on, words and sentences began with power in life
Electrified and intensified even today
Words have always been expressed through Legacy Historians along with Poets leading today

Sentences explaining good and bad experiences
The thought behind the influences
It also comes down to instances
The encouragement has always been felt
Heart given joy being an honor to write
Every Poet, and even the ones who don’t think they are not a POET has inspiration
It’s appreciation in what is expels from the heart
The emotions that are immediately let out
Every moving letter have a meaning with consistency like I said before, “Power in Words”
Poets have that source of power that push words for reading

Think of yourself as a WORD ENHANCER
Poet thought and inner creativity sought
What a combination?
It’s the mind that unlocks what’s hidden in the mind treasure chest
Beyond information, but capturing attention
It’s a matter of persuasion
The words are out there
Element of preserver
As you write word changes
Any writer behind the connection in using the right words for effectiveness
Now that you know you are the word changer
Think POSSIBILITIES, REALITIES and PURPOSE behind why do you write
You have always been the answer to words
But I wanted to prove it.
preservationman Jun 2022
What would it take to say Hello?
Why do people make other people feel shallow?
It involves having respect
Imagine the gratification in effect
It is not a test
It’s just observation telling true confess
That statement above says it best
People often stare
In their mind it is their characteristic in they don’t care
But it puts people in a situation of caution in beware
Looks can ****
Expressions of warning of instill
Somewhere the world loss distinction
Out the door went appreciation
There is no longer a sensation
It goes beyond the Pandemic
Yet nothing Academic
People Flow
It could very well be somebody you know
Don’t let people change who you are
Enriched personality in inspiration is what goes far.

WRITING BATTLE STATIONS

Writing being the ammunition
A war between the thinker and the words
The battle between onward and forward from the heart in thoughts
The battle rattles on
Words that destroy
Sentences being the decoy
Defense running through the mind
Opposition ready to attack
Organizing supporting the facts
The writer being the General
Letters forming the Cornell
Sentences are the Throop’s
The force behind winning the writing battle
Opposition trying to corner and conquer
Strategy being the defense
Hours of time in sweat
Alphabet by Alphabet falling down
However, inspiration encouraging and urging sentences to take a stand
Word strength in numbers
Alphabets rise and got up
Finished the battle in being a complete write
Victory formed sight
Opposition defeated
Sentences reigned supreme
Writing battle station rose through the uncertain ashes

Writing that didn’t retreat
Victory writing stands tall
Conquering all
Writing Battle stations with rise

Always be encouraged to emphasize
Travel with an open mind
Watch as the scenery unfolds
The picture windows being the narration of story told
Greyhound who shows you towns that might not be on any map
Don’t forget to wear your thinking cap
The Greyhound rolling wheels not needing a road map
Recline and lean back and take a nap
Greyhound bringing your destination closer than you think
I just saw America’s Uncle Sam give a wink
Greyhound showing you possibilities
Your life you haven’t thought about
A turnaround will be worked out
Greyhound and you united as one
Greyhound with your destiny
Enrich and embrace in the Greyhound way
Think Greyhound always when you want to travel any given day
Leave and arrive
Drive our way
Think of Greyhound being your getaway

A SHAD0WLY THRILL
preservationman Jun 2022
Darkness casting as an image
Face unknown
Features unknown
Captivation relishing on fear
Who is this shadow near?
Wonder of the minds in wanting to analyst
But frightened in what could be a surprise
It could very well be a prospect of someone to die
But whose life?
However, the shadow is all around
Surrounded within the darkness
Light can’t pierce
The shadow is a force to deal with
How does one do battle?
One must be caution and idle
The shadow appears but doesn’t vanish
The darkness makes the shadow mysterious
Nothing distinguished
The shadow walks among
No wonder to look upon
A moment could be any second
All minds are on reckon
The shadow doesn’t speak only creeps
Are you the next victim?
Screams won’t help
Worrying won’t solve
Don’t even bother to sob
The shadow is already in your mist
Only time will tell
The shadow is all in you
Fate is in the shadow’s hands
Your tomorrow could end today
Your soul could move array
The shadow
The need for darkness
You being the witness

A FATHER’S DAY BREEZE
preservationman Jun 2022
I was raised by my Granddad
He thought of me as his Lad
He taught me right from wrong
He also expressed in how I should get along
My thoughts are his legacy he gave me
“Be everything that you are meant to be”
“Become a Commodity”
It was all related for what my Granddad expected for me in life
My Grandad had me practice typing 4 hours every day, and helped me build up my vocabulary intellectually
The whole process was preparing for College Education
My Granddad would often say “I don’t care other young people are doing, but for you it will be Higher Learning”
Higher Learning it was
He saw me being an achiever
However, it was my Granddad being a Believer instilling assurance within me
I thank my Granddad often for his influence
If it wasn’t for my Granddad, I don’t think I would have pushed myself into expectations
My Granddad’s legacy still holds true today in giving
I made many strides of accomplishments
All through the guidance of my Granddad, but I must give thanks to the Almighty above
His spirit holds true within my heart
I will never forget
I am the Adult he said I would become
My Granddad said, “You will remember this Old Man”
I do, and have no reason not too
So Happy Father’s Day in the Heavenly divine
Your Grandson is going just fine
Your teachings were tough
Your influence was more than enough
Your Legacy followed
Happy Father’s Day beyond.

Help the world to believe in hope
Understanding is how one copes
I pray for covering in enemy protection
A defense that the Evil can’t touch
I also pray for encouragement for the world
A world of Peace
Let your frustrations be released
Make every second and moment a time to pray
Devotion surrounded by blessings
Turn hate into respect
Turn rebel into obedience
Let spiritual promise be your assurance
I pray for the world in endurance
Turn patience into tolerance
The Lord can supply all your needs
Let every day be a blessing to proceed
This I pray
Always believe throughout the day
Don’t go astray
Be covered by Heavenly hands
The truth being the caravan
My prayers go out throughout the land
You will be ok
The Lord will keep it that way.

Just because you are retired doesn’t spell OLD
Illustrate by being bold
Remember, you are the best story ever told
Retirement is a life revival
Opportunities to meet new adventures
Exploring many ventures
Retirement continues until time’s out
Until that time, keep moving about
This is your time and establishment
Make it spectacular and robust

PICK-A-DREAM

A night full of dreams
Possibilities that could come true
A closed door that opened
Opportunity trying to get my attention
I was my own representation
What I thought I was shown what I could do
The time to pursue
Acting moment
Imagining myself on the Broadway stage
Captivated and amazed
Speaking words from a rehearsed script
It was happening on the Great White Way Broadway
That is where my dream wanted me to be
My name in lights for all to see
My tomorrow was yesterday
As the music and curtain came up
I felt certain
Perform I did
The finale being the audience applause in approval
Nothing unusual
My moment with a cause
They say if you wish hard enough, dreams do come true
It was a moving moment for me to go through

Glancing at the stars as they twinkle

She is my woman and I am her man
We kissed at various intervals
As we walked, we saw other lovers in their embrace
It was as if we were seeing love tails that came to life
Fairytale night
Full of hope and dreams
Imaginations beyond expectations
Night Watch
Love Catch
Not a dream, but what love is supposed to be
Sleepless within the heart
That’s where it all starts

ROMANTIC SIGNAL
preservationman Jun 2022
Started with a sip of wine
Two hearts pounding genuine
Loving between us so kind
The Moon sat the mood
Music that was Smooth
The tenderness maneuvering Soothe
Love had already begun
Togetherness among
Arms around
Aah and moans
Shoes and clothes took off
Interlude into the night
Heart to heart
Lips to Lips
Love on desire
Both on fire
Every kiss caused our bodies to erupt
It felt like an Earthquake
It was us in Heaven’s sake
It was passion between us
Sweat pouring down our intensifying bodies
Electrified connection
Kisses and arms embraced
We scored a touch down
Winners on both sides
An evening none of us will forget
There was a departure surrounding regret
We will meet again
It will be for as long as we can
It’s Sunrise and Good morning
I had a reason to yawn
I have a true love to look upon
Everlasting no end
I found my blend

To arrive or be late

Start into finish

Appreciate yet criticize

Mad but never apologize

Simple but complex

Reaction with effect

Cooked until burned

Enjoy with dislike

Live unto Death

Living to Die

Weak to Strong

Respect needing to get along

Cloudy then Sunny

Good or Bad

Child into Adult

Pain into Mobility

Home traveling to Hotel

Earth into Space

Teach to Learn

Work to Earn

Responsibility with Survival

Walk to Run

Yesterday leading to Tomorrow

Finish arrived at done

You feel alone
Life has no meaning
Struggles surround you like closing in walls
Feel heavy and bound
But wait, I hear an inspiring tone from the hills
Now just be still
Hope is found above
It’s the Almighty you should think of
Knee and pray
The Almighty is the relay
He will show you the way
Darkness will turn to light
He will direct you in plain sight
Tomorrow will be a blessing
Its understanding being the lesson
Your hope will be from Heaven’s help
Believe and don’t doubt
You are experiencing a temporary bout
Turnaround is on the way
Be strong and don’t astray
Time and moment
Straight and center
Open the door and let the Almighty enter
Golden sunrise like never before
Sunset with a heart embrace
This is your now
Tomorrow never thought possible
In the midst of praise
You are covered by the amaze

FASTER THAN
preservationman May 2022
Fire
Aim
Target
It’s the gun
Lessens life among
Nothing to look upon
News talk
Person stalk
Person weapon enthused
Mental Health confused
Bullets that ****
Shortened life not at free will
Split second
No minutes
**** gun ****
Person’s will
Guns all over the streets
They win and dead defeats
****** after ******
No vote on Gun Reform
This is a warn
The Senate can’t even justify
How many more will have to die?
How many more families will cry?
Democrats and Republicans can’t even see eye to eye
Bullets have no specific names for victims
It’s a song like anthems
Time will come
The world is becoming next to none
Lives will be no more
Guns are nothing to ignore
Minds want to even the score
It doesn’t matter if it is a Gun or Rifle
It surrounds shoot
Guns need to be given the boot
Faster than life itself
Who else?
Destinations with no arrival
Departures uncertain
Guns are supposed to be for protection
It is now the **** selection
Senate can’t even come to a decision
It’s all about precision
There is a definite need for Gun Reform
The alarm has been called
We are now at stalked
The warning is out
Be alert and careful as you are moving about.

THE PRICE IS WRITE
preservationman May 2022
Welcome to “THE PRICE IS WRITE”
I am your host, Poet Sense
let’s begin, Words Come on Down
Here’s how the Price is Write works
Think of words behind the merchandise
If there is a match you score points
The more points, it brings you closer to the winning circle
Think on certain
You never know what’s behind the curtain
It could be a wordy prize
Perhaps an unsuspecting surprise
The idea is to think of words advise
However, your mind must analyze
The key is to beat the clock and arrow before it reaches the top
But you must be quick as there a limit and the clock will stop
Our words contribute value
Surrounds you
Pursue
Eyes always on the board
Your sudden could become certain
Words are always your moment of truth and theory
We control the mystery
You have been playing all along
We caught you by surprise and you didn’t even know it
Thank you for joining ‘THE PRICE IS WRITE
Until next time

WHAT HAPPENS TOMORROW?
preservationman May 2022
I wonder all the time surrounding my family
There doesn’t seem to be any care
I feel on alert of beware
There should be love
There is none to think of
Excuses with refuses
I am picturing my own Funeral
My family didn’t communicate with me when I was alive
They are nothing but jive
I am actually living in my own strive
Family love was mentioned to me
It wasn’t from their heart
No sincerity
My tomorrow could very well be soon
It might even take place at western terms, “High Noon”
Family needs to talk to me while I can answer
Otherwise, it will be disconnected to everlasting
What did I do so wrong?
I don’t see a get along
I often wonder, is this the family I belong?
I deserve better than this
This is nothing to pass by and miss
When goodbye comes that’s the finale
Never to return
Family is about associate
Moments to appreciate
Foundation of create
What happened?
Where’s how and when?
Don’t make it a pretend
Everlasting is the end
Don’t wait until I am in the box
Don’t maneuver like a fox
You should do while I was living
Now it is all about deceiving
You had no intention from the beginning
Tomorrow will be what it is supposed to be
I am not going to wait and see
Living is about life
I am not going to give advice
Tomorrow will come in where time went

One time thing
I didn’t need to flex
I did feel a little perplexed
A Female Bodybuilder and I met at a Bodybuilding show
It involves a competition with music and posing muscles you know
A Male Bodybuilding Champion himself introduced me to the Female Bodybuilder
Her smile and personality caught my attention
My charm signaled to her my representation
The Female Bodybuilder wasn’t overly muscular in extreme’s
She had shape and was well contoured
We got to know each other
One thing led to another
Each time we talked the stars twinkled
With glancing moment, the Moon smiled
We didn’t have an interlude
I felt proud that she was willing to go out with me
I guess it was meant to be
As our evening ended, we kissed goodnight
It felt like fireworks in the night
We became the memory open book
It was how our eyes took a look
One flex at a time to remember
Off to sleep now to slumber

POETRY DIGEST
preservationman May 2022
Regulation of point
Emotions from within
A past from then
Formulating from when
Time capsule mind cometh words
Open forum of voices
Dialog being choices
Quietness with no disturb
Enlighten by every given word
Time that said
Sentences that amplified
Poet’s moment
Hear me now and hear me good
Time doesn’t wait
Be patient and appreciate
Many Poets have said “Let your words be remembered”
Into the light
The focus from darkness
Before into after
A matter of fact
Muster the feel
Make it personal being the seal
Only Poet’s knows for sure
Ship to shore
Balancing the score
A storm that came
Survival from witness
Eyes saw
A moment I couldn’t ignore
The truth that was told
A Poet upfront and bold
Poetry never gets old
Words and sentences guiding taking whole
Poets in the emphasize
True to life into everlasting.

UPLIFTED PRESENCE
preservationman May 2022
A man Mighty who sits high and above
All the goodness to think of
Blessings that come alive
It’s praying being the strive
You must connect to Almighty in order to receive
He is the Redeemer, and he doesn’t deceive
But you must be the believer
Look within your heart
Never hardened as you won’t find
The Almighty who is kind
Truth within being genuine
You can call 24/7
It doesn’t matter if it is at night at Eleven
There’s no internet nor email to connect
Pray having the effect
The talk and walk
Not a stalk
When in doubt, let the Almighty work things out
Daily as you move about
Give a chance

Struggles that bind
You are covered by Heaven’s kind
A refreshing blend
A man who doesn’t pretend
Even at the end
Your spirits will be lifted
Your situation a turnaround
Mercy and Grace
This day
Guidance is the trace
Understanding
Lifted and assured
Brought to you by our Lord.

MURDER 101 VERBAL
preservationman May 2022
It wasn’t a gun
It wasn’t a knife
They say Bullets ****
But not in this fulfill
It was a disturbing mouth
Confusion
Not yet, don’t draw your conclusion
Mouth extremes that triggered circumstance
Powerful words causing blood and pain within
Slowly dying from insult
Little did you know
The mouth killing formation
It’s facts with information
****** anybody can say
It can be he or she
There’s your ****** verbal 101
Are you the murderer among?
Something to think about
Your emotion erupting forming a bout
Watch your words and what you say
What’s your Verdict?
Guilty or Innocent

SOMEWHERE IN COMPARE
preservationman May 2022
Somewhere somebody
Be the somewhere not the somewhat
Be the someone in encouragement
Illustrate the how being the show
Somehow from anywhere
Somebody having a care
Suddenly from somewhere
Be somebody inspiring in don’t be lonely
There’s never only
Someone having a resolution
Somewhat can’t just draw conclusion
Be someone with no inclusion
Somebody needs to avoid confusion
Somewhere through somebody work it out
Now that somewhere understands
Somebody needs to fulfill across the land
You are the somebody
You came from somewhere
Your mission is to do good anywhere
