AUTUMN'S PERSONA!
Julie Grenness Apr 2017
What is the persona of Autumn?
of many things, it is a sum,
Of golden days, chillsome nights,
Twilight descending, turn on the lights,
of fleecy clothes, planting in soil,
of rainy sodden, drenching our toils,
Autumn's persona is past middle-aged,
More like a golden age on nature's stage,
Grey afternoons, foggy morns,
What kind of day does this day dawn?
Feedback welcome.

HOME
Julie Grenness Feb 2016
With God, we're always at home,
In a sacred space, no one is alone,
Jesus calling on a divine telephone,
In quiet stillness, we're always at home,
From Faith, let us never roam,
Unconditional love, for all who seek,
Even when we turn away, we can regain peace,
In a sacred space, no one is alone,
With God, we're always at home.

IF I WERE .......
Julie Grenness Jun 2015
If I were dreaming,
The gods would be smiling,
The angels would be shining,
If our eyes were closing,
They would be disappearing,
As long as I have you here.
You're the reason why angels are near,
Memories of long hours kissing,
Who knows why his mind missing?
Now you're not here, you walked through the door,
I love you so much I can't see you any more,
If I were dreaming of signs from above....

Have you ever been in love?

Pray for blessings of grace,
Pray for an encounter with the Lord,

Personal encounters with grace,
Hidden, but not far, in our sacred space.

True lovers everywhere,

Who is.....???
Julie Grenness Oct 2019
Who is a good person to know?
Each has a path to follow,
I do good things for others, you see,
Remaining kind  and so friendly,
Hearts do need folk to look after,
Souls need peace and laughter!
My path is that of a bard, as well,
Who is good and really swell?
I am being modest, what the hell!

DAD!
Julie Grenness Dec 2016
This is a tribute to my Dad,
In life, he was a stoic lad,
As a hero, he battled ****,
He loved sitting in his woodshed,
With our Dad, we were blessed,
Us he always gives the same love,
Rest in Peace, Dad, in Heaven above....

Reality.
Reality is let loose,
Have fun in your caboose,
Shy Adams and Eves,
Taking off fig leaves.....
You invented all that,
All junior copy cats
No one ever grieves,
Taking off fig leaves.....
Hence you all sprang.
When oldies' bells rang,
Joy love receives,
Taking off fig leaves....
God nurtures this tide,
Humans have multiplied,
Under house eaves.
Taking off fig leaves!

SELF SERVICE.....
Julie Grenness Feb 2017
Self service is exactly that,
Change is supposed to good, that's that,
But where are our checkout chicks?
This technology gives us the blip!
Now self service is more advanced,
It leads us greys in a merry dance,
If change is supposed to be so good,
Is there a kind human hand here? Touch wood!

TRUE LOVE......
Julie Grenness Mar 2017
We're not supposed to search for love,
Advice from Buddha, master from above,
One of the great healers,
Love is supposed to find us, to please us,
I ponder and reflect,
Yes, some sort of love finds us, I guess,
Like love from fur friend pets,
Love once from boyfriends,
Love from my old buddies and friends,
Then there's love you find from above,
You'd wear their hands like gloves,
Or love, in a day of sunlight,
Yes, a beautiful day to be alive!
This is advice from Buddha, above,
We are not supposed to search for love......

INSECT....
Julie Grenness Jan 2017
I gaze in wonder with a microscope,
A mosquito's wing I give a poke,
Such a perfect miniature,
Who designed this part of nature?
So intricate and tiny,
I gaze at a dawn so shiny,
Do you sense a grander plan,
Than any creature's short life span?
Feedback welcome.
You're my little blue bird,
Crafting love letters in word,
Happy heart song ever heard.....

THE MOVIE OF LIFE.
Julie Grenness Feb 2017
Say you make a movie of life,
In mine, I've survived lots of strife,
A cast of fake friends,
Useless so-called men,
Maybe I attract cavemen,
Emotional manipulation,
These days I manage great,
A film of life, mine wouldn't rate!

PERSON X....
Julie Grenness Mar 2017
Is there a genuine Person X?
A true hero of the chicks, no less!
With buns of steel,
No urban heel,
A superhero dude,
With total attitude,
All for good, I suggest,
Like superman to bless,
God's gift to women he'd be,
Person X for the centuries,
Sounds like such a fantasy!
No one is perfect, I guess,
So much for meeting Person X!!

City of the Future
Julie Grenness Aug 2018
I see a city one day,
Beneath the world, one way,
When the air disappears,
Climate change is here,
Future city below,
Earth's undertow,
With vertical farms,
Surface is harmed,
Damage control,
A world now old,
Future can shock,
Giant building blocks,
All underground,
No air left around,
No habitats, you see,
In future centuries....
Who will survive?
Anyone left alive?
Below world, the way,
I see one city, one day......

Love is a sign.
Julie Grenness Oct 2024
What is love? A quest,
You totally are the best,
Wake me up in bliss,
Takes more than our kiss,
It is beyond sublime,
Stood the test of time,
Better man no love could bring,
You make this heart's bells ring,.
Guess I am still in love,
Love is sign from above.
Feedback welcome.
Equality, democracy, aiming high, seem
Globally now, mankind's forgotten dream.

Here is my loving tribute to you,
You don't really mind if I do,
Send my thankful smiles your way,
Laugh, power to the gray,
After forty years,
You remove fears,
You don't mind,
So kind,
You.......

Ah, this is everyday bliss,
Fave author's new book, a kiss!

In my book nook for literacy,
Daily reading time is bliss,
Open a new book, do I kiss?

PUPPY HEAVEN
Julie Grenness Aug 2018
Are you a fan of fur friend liberation,
Across our great lucky nation?
If only we had intercommunication,
Between every species on Earth,
We'd understand each other's worth,
Do you believe in what we're taught,
That animals have no abstract thought?
Indeed, how do we know this?
Is it all a load of blip?
Do dogs pass into Puppy Heaven? I ask,
Believing it's for 'good boys', their task,
Their certain and sure hope of resurrection,
Somewhere with snacks and toys in Heaven,
Loving their owners just the same,
Abstract thoughts, is that the game?
True interspecies communication,
Dreaming on, in this lucky nation!
Questions I do ask, what do animals believe?
