Premium Member In the Modest Way
In their own tenacious way Luddits creep out of dust Forcing time to stand and stay In the stales of past They crimilalize in panic Everything that moves Passengers of ghost Titanic Though the news we cruise Prohibitions fall like leaves In the August rain There’s no air for me to breathe Under luddits reign So I violate their laws In the modest way Like a rebel...

Modest is never me
I don’t want to be famous, is no gripe, One can fetch some fame with a lot of hype, No never, that’s not me, I’d rather farther see To see me more a legendary type. ___________________ Limerick|12.11.2024|humour Poet’s note: No, I never can say such a thing. Something to this effect Calvin said to his alter ego and puffed tiger,...

Remembrance of Modest Decor
The decor of laces, And fragrance of lavenders, In the land of Georgia, With attire of antiques, The melody of wind chimes, Echoing in harmony with grand piano, Like heaven is playing harp, And pearls bursting everywhere, O, the modesty of it all, Dressed up in high class, Candles in rustic brass holder, Lighting up off white wall, Exploring ivory artfully crafted everywhere, Rustic kitchen with wooden floor, Washing...

Modest Finanaces
Modest finances We're supposed to travel to the Algarve, stay at a posh hotel, and eat at a restaurant that sells African food on my birthday So many medical bills coming, an unhealthy thud in our post-box and the tediousness of re-insuring the car to walk in our car-infested town and the lengths to banks and medical...

Gifts
Kind words spoken with the power to heal. Inimitable pearls like no other in the vast ocean. A comforting touch to soothe a strong emotion. When sharp sorrow you attempt to conceal. An unexpected token of love out of the blue: To strengthen the bond; bring souls ever closer. True sincerity, not the artifice of a poser: A stranger’s chocolate-eyes smile just...

Organ of Sight
They started with a puddle, And ended with a maple. View of river when sunset. And them being the modest. Beautiful not to look beyond it. But hard to read through it. Wondering what can be their bridle, Where, melancholy is the only disciple....

Did You Remember
Did you remember to give thanks for waking up to another wonderful day? Would it help to improve your path by taking just a few minutes to pray? When does gratitude come into play during a person’s daily life? Does appreciation improve the state of mind of a husband or wife? How does chemistry work when generating joy...

Modest Giant
For its own proud boast Nothing lusty heard For a tree, gleamy leaved, raised is. Its bird; left to it. With an upheaved breast To sing, far and wide, its praises....

Premium Member VW Beetle
Two adults and six kids jammed into a VW beetle. We could have been the poster family for their commercial. Driving twenty-five miles into town and back for Sunday mass. What an excursion. Singing was involved. It was fun right up until dad got the scare of his life and almost hit a pedestrian. That’s...

100 Words the Closet Door and the Modest Carving
"...and the modist carving into the closet door read: "I do not place my life, nor my trust, my belief nor my faith within the resume of man, nor within his cause. For he proclaimed, is but a mere farthing of his merest self; and not of Me. He is an avid boasting; ungrateful,...
