Floating Butterfly haiku

Floating butterflies
Can I stomach them flapping
Draw a rasping breath

Dry piercing my lungs
Steady my heart and my hand
Will I get the job?

Riddle

I start with the child of a goat
Then add what helps your leg kick free
You have only one of me, I note
So have a drink on me
What am I?



The answer is here



Update: Sorry, about this. How do I put it? This riddle is broken? When writing it I confused the kidney (of which we have two) and the liver. I deeply apologize for any stress I've caused you. However I got a good laugh out of it when I realized, so I'm leaving it as is.

An Attack!

An attack, an injustice! Raining fire, raining hate
My instinct to run, to hide or retaliate
But the voice of the angels whisper in my ear
Stand, turn the other cheek, and do not fear

Colors

Purple garments draping Him who sits with sharpened sword
Blue, the garments, draping her, the first to call Him Lord
Green the meadows where He lies, the lamb, as though He’s slain
Yellow sun does rise and shine across the holy plain
Red the blood from His cross, drunk by all who love
In white garments washed clean of sin by mercy from above

Offering the World

And all you have to do is bow down and worship me.

Vice at its Best

Malicious as many men will attest
Is being burned by vice at its best
For vice at its best is a vicious curse
That follows us til we ride in that hearse

Colorful Music

Colorful music
Song of joy and trill of hope
Treacherous jungle

Walking with the notes
Flashing feathery flurry
On the trail of light

A Trigger Happy Guy

A trigger happy guy
With a trigger happy wrath
No longer very sly
Upon this war torn path

Leaving death behind
Destroying soul after soul
This rage you will find
Takes a bitter toll

The fire may go out
But the cinders stay white hot
Ready for another bout
Back at the same cursed spot

The temper may be soothed
By love of family, of friends
But to get this beast removed
Give God your heart; He mends



God bless,

Wisdom I Seek

Wisdom I seek
To obey the law
To protect the meek
Live and die for all

Sun shines in the day
Moon shines through the night
O Wisdom I pray
Open up my sight

Wisdom I love
The light that heals my sin
Guide me from above
Heal me and my kin

Few

Few are the saints shining bright
Fewer are so frighteningly far from light
Too many fall when they may fly

Few are the books that should be read
Fewer are books that should be burned instead
Too many unpublished poets die

Riddle

Will you visit my ancient grave?
Will you accept my line of blood
Out of respect for the life I gave
A seed I planted in the mud
That flowered into your first sigh?
Will you guess who am I?

Both And

Both a maker of waves
And a part of the old
Both the man who saves
And the God of old

Both a light that shines
And heat that warms
Both drawn in the lines
And a zeal that swarms

Wait ... What?

We are salt on a mountain that cannot be hidden. I think.

Dark to Light

Dark to light
Smile despite
Interior’s walls
To divine calls
And every swing
The hammer sings
Of brick and stone falls
And dust that palls
Covering the fight
To seek the light

Water Falling

Sharp tickling tendrils
Slowing thoughtless ramblings down
Cleansing impurities

Moist breath iced in
Evil frozen, purified
Hope in life restored

Something to Say

Fear fixated furtively in dappled dance and delirium
 Gracious giggles greet the cautious cats of Kansas
“Hurry!” calls the harpies, “Hurry!’ bellows beasts bemoaned
Justice judges thee with jaundiced eyes adjourned

Present

Procession sing to the Temple
Rite of purity, rite of birth
Enter singing praise and worship
Simeon’s wait is over now
Exultation from Anna too
Newborn Jesus, Son of God
Through whom are all peoples saved

Simeon

The Lord in His time
The Lord at His pace
Perfectly sublime
Keeps His promises of Grace

The Lord with His Name
The Lord’s will be done
Simeon’s claim
As Mary presents the Son
