Premium Member A Tomb of Ancient Bloom
Take me to the place where the aromatic fragrance
threatens to envelop our obelisks glorifying death;
to the place where the seraphim of old long to steal your breath
only to resurrect you again,
because they adore your shell-shocked epiphany.
The twinkle of wisteria eyes that say star-struck goodbyes to...

Premium Member Tomb Silent
 

For a moment when I open my door,
a sweet meow will greet me,
but, it is just a wish . . . 

Oh, I want to live in that one moment,
I want to lift up kitty,
but my home is tomb silent....

The baby loved the heart music of her mother to be!
She heard the water running
all over Mommy’s body and
breast, 
As she listened so ever so intently!

“One day I will see Mother’s lovely, happy face.
It is getting way too small...

The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier - Canada

We all know you now
You have fallen at our feet
You have guarded them all with life and limb
Noble and brave
Only to fall at a cowards last call
You have stirred the souls of the unknown heroes
Their appall shall seek...

You come in search of love back to the tomb
Beneath the Weeping Willow tree it lies
The place where last you lips brought me to bloom
Where flame of passion danced in brilliant eyes

This very spot is where you buried love
For great was need to soar to...

You look at me and see a northeast highway after winter
Cracked, worn, roughened by conditions not meant to be endured.
I was once the most beautiful cobblestone pathway through a garden of ripe, unpicked fruit.
I was the apple whose sweet center no man could resist tasting
But...

Strange Things Found In the Lost Tomb of Zarathustra
It was never exactly pinpointed
for only the African Crowned Eagles knew of the twisting paths
to its misplaced place.

In that crystalline chamber, upon that gold dusted floor
were found much thumbed volumes of all Nietzsche’s
works,
a penguin in a glass bell,
a twig cut from the tree of Life...

Jesus is not in the tomb, my LORD and Redeemer lives!
He is in the heart of all those who in Him believes!
He has promised to come into us and remain
Forever dwelling in us through every joy and pain.

To all those who have opened the door...

The Tomb
Time is serenading a soulless march
September sings mournful, parched tomb
Lies untouched in the bleeding hearts crying out
For redemption and hearing a requiem no doubt

Iniquity without solace, truth waved bye
Long ago and we suffer  and die
As vapid pleonasms offer no comfort
To troubled minds and souls,...

Premium Member A Borrowed Tomb
As the spring sun rises
Revealing wispy clouds
Fog that's settled in hollows
Roosters crow, doves' coo proud

With Easter approaching 
Thoughts of thousands years
Ago bubble up in 
Memory, some tears flow

A triumphant entry
Upon a donkey new
He had never ridden one
The donkey unridden too

Was it a day like this...

The Friar's Heel beside the way
tilting toward the stones arrayed
at Stonehenge where the Devil played
and tossed the monolith that day.

Zareba formed of massive stones,
encircled 'round the Devil's throne;
but on the meadow Heaven owned 
transparent light of Angels shone.

Back to the cave, the gate to Hell
they...

From the Womb To the Tomb
Within the womb the miracle lay
Waiting for the appropriate day
To, at chance, enjoy the start,
A life in which to grow in heart

From the day that child was here
Learned to love and pray, no fear
Continued growth in solemn ways
Praying for eternal days

Unto the tomb, the body...

Valley of the kings
Romantic ideas
Word spread rapidly
Undiscovered tomb of a pharoah
World renown archeological teams 
headed for Egypt

Amateurs, we stood in line for almost twenty-hours 
before it was our
turn to take a look inside.
From the sunlight to the darkness, at first you go blind.
You hopefully catch...
