"What To Give"


And of course along with the seven deadly sins I HAD to be inspired to write about the seven heavenly virtues as well....


A nun praising her holy lord,
The light that she,
long adored.
Lies beneath the apple tree
And smiles with loving purity.

Procrastinate, and nothings done
And soon weekend’s,
no longer fun.
Living in a world of stand-stilled
Silence,
Never aids a small act of diligence.

Darkened days in a cardboard home
Sleeping still with a pillow of foam.
A warming cover,
what rarity?
To wake,
coated in curious charity.

Bottle empty, no final drop
Curving lips
that seem to flop.
An addict; six months of soberness
Swells with courageous
temperance.

A violent whipping of whistling blows, as
A fire soaring high, where
mountains once rose. To lay down your arms,
let our wars be ceased
And let this world be encumbered with a gracing peace.

So much to live for, but what to give?
A deepening cut force one
to only relive.
A feel, a gentle yet curious caress
From warming eyes of blissful kindness.

A fiery taste; the fire more savory
Inhaled through lungs
with gallant bravery.
A piercing conscious is never free
Until it floods itself with alluring modesty.
