on the creaking
wooden pier
in the moon's
full glow
an enchanting glint
upon the kidney shaped lake
did capture his eyes so
it struck a powerful chord
within his lonely heart
it twas irresistible
a jewel of beauty so unique
in its radiant light
the whole of his soul
did steep
her tangible essence
all but made him weep
so far away
yet so close to touch  
she held him
with her astounding
elegance
as he turned
to walk back
along the pier
she took him
by the hand
and placed
a profound kiss
upon his
despondent ear

the poet's quill wrote about
the merit of free
expression  
never would it become
a prisoner of
repression  

the poet's quill being enduring
of its staunch
belief
that to stymie liberty's voice could
cause but
grief

the poet's quill did
not shy
away
its purpose was intent on conveying
in an unfettered
way

the queen is always
very busy
breeding
and seldom takes a
rest from her
seeding

if she didn't keep
producing more
bees
there would be few
to pollinate the
trees

her tireless efforts are
rarely if ever given a
thought
yet without her fecundity
no honey could be
bought  

we human beings should
offer our praise to the
queen
as she's never ceases her work
on the propagation
scene

the queen bee
sat disconsolate in the hive
waiting for the drone's
drive to arrive

she was disappointed
when none could perform
so she flew off and joined
a more active swarm

she'd searched over
a very long while
to find drones who'd
make her always smile

she found a hive
which had a lot of upbeat drones
and there she stayed
humming her satisfied tones

there aint no love
in that man of mine
there aint no love
cause he's a rotten swine

he left me all alone
she he could be with a fresh chick
he's giving her
a goodly helping of his love stick

he deserted me
for the fruit on her sideboard
he liked what she offered
him it had no tying cord

there aint no love
in that man of mine
there aint no love
cause he's a rotten swine

he called it quits
he walked away from me
he wanted to be
ever so fancy free

the other chick
is heating his bed at night
she's fueling
his flint of delight

there aint no love
in that man of mine
there aint no love
cause he's a rotten swine

he departed
my domain for good
he didn't wish
to stay in my neighborhood

he's enjoying the fresh chick's
congenial company
she's got something
he couldn't source from me

there aint no love
in that man of mine
there aint no love
cause he's a rotten swine

tectonic plates gnashing together
volcanic activity becoming more prevalent
tsunamis flooding coastal lands
there is much volatility on the Earth

the weather seemingly out of kilter
snows falling on the summer plains
scorching hot winds affecting the tundra ice
there is much volatility on the Earth

man deploying weapons of a chemical kind
killing innocent people well away from battle lines
not thinking of the consequences his operations will cause
there is much volatility on the Earth

governments telling lies and being corrupt
politicians bringing no honor to themselves
the public is sickened by the political process
there is much volatility on the Earth

media outlets inform us daily of these events
upon our minds they make an indent
so much happening twenty four seven
there is much volatility on the Earth

members you'll note
a new event on the club's blueprint
which was so cleverly devised
by the committee's mint

all entries are to be marked
I really crave popularity
so ensure you write this
in letters of clearest clarity

the most original piece
shall garner the prized first place
those that are too **-hum
won't receive any grace

the council of jury
want to see
compositions stating
look at only me

they should have
a bragging tag
with the lionization
of unique flag

it's time to get
your submissions in
as the competition
is there to win

The scaffolding of the heart falls apart
When our beloved kin quickly depart
A repair kit is sought for the lasting grief
Tears are never ending in their sad stain
The living burdened with years of pain
Wrenched from those caring arms in cruelness
The soul e'er feels the ache of bitterness
To have consolation soothing relief
Always a cavern of dark clouds prevail
A death causes us to constantly ail  
In search of solace we all go looking
A brighter glimmering light regained
The sorrows of loss well ingrained
Our dearest leaving so overwhelming

the search has earnestly begun
to find an effective treatment
that'll stymie the blighting torment

scientists are on a questing run
in pursuing a vaccine's whack
which shall cease the viral attack

our globe received a hard stun
as its contagion did spread far
striking many countries with a jar

the sooner the trialing is spun
its success shall uplift us all
from a world laden by a pall

future days will be lit in sun
on testing labs scotching the bug
that has been relentless of slug

the search has earnestly begun
scientists are on a questing run
our globe received a hard stun
the sooner the trialing is spun
future days will be lit in sun

the sheriff's deputies
are on duty everyday
they tune into see
what people may say

if it doesn't follow
the sheriff's law act
instantly those folks
are thrown out of the tract

the sheriff's deputies
are an eagle eyed crew
they keenly observe
what others may spew

reports to the sheriff
they note in his log
then he evicts those
non law abiding dogs

the sheriff's deputies
are ever alert and on guard
their line of work
is to keep neat the sheriff's yard

so be warned the deputies
are watching with diligence
and they pass onto the sheriff
all of their intelligence

the sheriff's deputies
are always in the know
they make it their business
to tidy up the show

we need to be prudent
in what we put on air
as the sheriff won't condone
any form of illicit fair

the sheriff's deputies
are thorough at their jobs
they stand by the edicts
that the sheriff lobs

the
cauldron's
strong potion

in a dire toxin
simmering to the ***'s rim
this was a stupid portent
doom would be destine to prevail
the elements mixed in error
which ensured a disaster's outcome
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
bad omens were foretold by the recipe
the black sorcerer no smart blender
to late to change the concoction
it boiled over then blew
he'd not been very careful

such a novice

silly

no man has yet
found a healing treatment
for the sore of war
the scab's fissure
can erupt at anytime
with its deadly pus
bringing the loss

men who wield power
over caches of arms
have not the will
to remedy
their differences
so the sore
continues
to bring
trauma
to the world

the sword of Damocles
hung above his
head
and it suspended with
a very slender
thread

the sharp edged blade
did swing to and
fro
deciding at which time
his cranium would
go

though he is a man
in a powerful
position
nothing will save him from
the cold steel's
exhibition

sooner rather than later
we'll witness the sword's
drop
as it makes
the inevitable
chop

the trees
the trees
what ever happened
to the trees
once our scenery
had acres and acres
of trees
but over the years
we've purged
far too many trees

yet the trees are so vital
in the natural world's ecology
for their leaves perspiring assists
the rain cycle's hydrology

we've not replaced
the trees we've taken down
hence why we've now few of them
in our environment's crown

and our countryside
suffers prolonged dry spells
the trees were such
precious fillers of rives and wells

two lovers entwined
neath the moonlight
they closely entwined
until first light

in each others arms
they melded so beautifully
as the koels in the meadow
serenaded most expressively

they were sailing
on a cloud of fondness
embracing together
neath the moon's agreeableness

the tzars are holding court
at a particular place
and they love to be in possession
of this most important space

quite a few are bowing down
to these narcissists most grand
they've become adept at gaining
a higher perch in the stand

no doubt the blue bloods
can sway those who wish to ascend
they are at this self serving practice
long after the day is at end

the tzars egos must be fed
it sustains them so perfectly
by the ones who wish to
obtain a top position so ardently

the leg up to higher seat
was made by the very helpful few
they did it in supportive feat
so the lady got an alpine view

they'd elevated her profile
so the lady got an alpine view
of their work came no thankyou mile

they'd elevated her profile
recognition she did attain
of their work came no thankyou mile
there being a most ungrateful gain

recognition she did attain
all the limelight shining her way
there being a most ungrateful gain
not showing an indebted ray

they abused the children
in a multitude of ways
they weren't following
the good Lord's way

they fondled the innocent children inappropriately
they made them perform acts which did demean
they slapped the little children for the sake of it
they enjoyed every pleasurable bit

stories of the wicked clergy are coming to light
the public are seeing them in a new light
what they've done to the children has been hushed up
by the Bishops and Cardinals those men high up

the vestments of the Lord
which the men of God wear
they have a stained past
which is now getting aired

the voices was permanently silenced
no more could its language be heard
to other locales the voice now travels
spreading a wonderful panoply of words
most happy are they who hear the voice
for it is so hospitably well received

who wants another Clinton
in the White House
to have another one
would be akin to a verminous mouse

when William Jefferson was there
he'd feel up the young interns
which bought a smell of *******
to the White House's ferns

now Hilary the old nag wants to be
the commander in chief
with her in the position
America would be bound for much grief

those persons in America
who've an iota of common sense
shall never let another Clinton
reside behind the White House fence

scandals aplenty are ever
trailing the Clinton name
as they've a reputation
for playing a most shameful game

in howling verve

the world is full of emptiness
how so you may inquire?
the following dissertation
shall give you an insight
as to the emptiness
that is around our globe
stay seated in your arms chairs
and at your computer screens
these words shall reveal the story
for all of you to glean

in Third World countries
not a bite of food to eat
yet in Western countries they waste it
and throw it on the streets

it is said there is plenty
of food on the planet for all
but starving millions
wait for a meager crumb to fall

here the evidence
placed in front of you
and it doesn't make
for a kindhearted view

were there to be a little
sharing and fairness
the great emptiness
may well be redressed

on our planet the picture
will remain thus
and this salient tale
is a wake up call to each of us

the rabid feasting
in rich nations is really quite obscene
while those in Third World countries
live with bellies poorly mean

take a moment to ruminate
on what has been said
as you butter
your daily portion of bread

Epilogue
those who have not a mouthful
isn't it profane
the world is full of emptiness
as this dissertation has explained
