poem feed (What is a feed?)
Adventures north from sleepy fields,
Drew out a smile upon the sun,
The breeze met with a bed of hair to wield,
Beholding all the trees persuading company in shade,
The river writes a fine riddle:
Bottomless but capped with riverbed,
Winding never truly wound instead,
Penniless but bejeweled on every head,
What fine company in shade and sun,
To march upon the gates of sister spires.

Poems written on this day in years gone by:
Outside a misty dress this April rain,
Ebbs light and soft upon the window pane,
Drapes fit the form of day in ponderous grey,
Then frills of light and weaving spikes array,
Pretty flowers upon glass leaves do sway,
Take firm the droplets for a coat to stay,
The wind a brash caress that turned away,
Found solace by the bulwark - April Rain.
Dentist-entist,
Cleans what's been missed,
Informs of cleanliness,
At least it's short - that is the list,
Of what to do for toothy bliss,
Dentist-entist.
Huddle around dear friends,
It's time to commit our lives to the Lord,
To smell, walk and talk like living sacrifices,
A holy and pleasing aroma to our God - don't you forget,
And it is He who washes us clean and covers us in his perfume,
A perfume that was wrung out of him like water from a rag,
All for love and to his eternal glory,
Amen.
