We've all faced trying times
our spirits have been shaken
faith has been overly tested

Taught to pick ourselves up
press on, we move forward
to the tune of our own choice

We poses
RESILIAN FLESH
the internal scares are present.
Allen Robinson Dec 2016
Keeping in time you
are essential as the air
I breathe

The rhythm that flows
between us is timeless
as the years we've shared

My heart beats in sync
with yours as we seal
our deep connection

Just as a METRONOME
keeps pace and time, I
aspire to with you.
For V.

Be it ever so humble...
a case when size doesn't matter

Be it ever so comforting...
nothing like a stoked fire place

Be it ever so true...
keeper of all thoughts and secrets

Be it ever so loving...
family gatherings and holidays

... HOME.

My adulations go out to
the women of the world
Those that play the role
of mother and of father
Those wonderful ladies
who are mothers to many
and yet have to children
of their own to speak of
They teach and nurture,
give their time and care
Always thinking of others
before themselves on so
many levels and still find
the time to prepare meals,
laundry and help with the
homework on minimal
sleep.  Great women who
impart out first lessons to
pass on to our children
She plays the roll of doctor,
psychologist and coach
Respect is not only due,
it's mandated as a true
TRIBUTE to all they do.

My mind is aware
vividly aware as I
  know my dreams
   are in full color

Unlike day dreams
mine take place at
  night as I gaze into
   blank dark vistas

Mesmerized it
seems yet I focus
  deeply on a plan
   a vision a task

One larger than
the next I envision
  life so clear as if
   it was day time

I snap back to
reality and remind
  myself to write it
   down or lose it.

NOBLE
                 is the man
who walks by faith
with the Lord above

NOBLE
                is the man
who's heart is clean
like wings of a dove

NOBLE
                        is the man
who works hard
daily supporting family

NOBLE
                  is the man
who puts others first
forsaking all others

NOBLE
                  is the man
who walks tall in the
face of adversity

NOBLE
                    is the man
who practices peace
with a heart of clergy.

I said it out loud
for all the world
to take note

EXCLAIMATION

I spoke it into
existence for me
to act upon

EXCLAIMATION

My dreams and
aspirations of
future endeavors

EXCLAIMATION

My time to shine
on a global stage
w/ no reservations

EXCLAIMATION

Seeking the path
to fulfill a destiny
sought from the past

EXCLAIMATION

Seeking not to malign
my future with ill will
I grow in spiritual faith

EXCLAIMATION

Weeping for humanity
my heart is heavy, yet
hopeful for redemption
