Eberwine

     I was walking a path in the woods
When I came upon a peculiar pine
It had a warning of no trespassing
Order of the Kingdom of Eberwine

Nothing else looked out of place
And I became overwhelmed with curiosity
So much so that I couldn’t control
The persuasion of my impetuosity

So I entered through the gate without a
Fence across the boundary of Eberwine
And suddenly I was whisked through
A portal to another place and time

To a world within our world where everything
Is unimaginable but so very real
My heart was racing and I had much anxiety
Beyond what I ever thought I could feel

My eyes gazed upon a huge mountain
That no human could possibly climb
As I pause to take in the beauty before me
In a near distance I hear bells begin to chime

I realize now that I may never see home
Again and I may be stuck here in Eberwine
From the mountain a water fall cascades
Into a river as mighty as the European Rhein

I’m sure out of the corner of my eye
I saw a large creature of some kind
But I’m no longer sure of my reality
Eberwine may be playing tricks on my mind

As I’m walking I notice strange wildlife
With unfamiliar and familiar traits
Like horses but they have camel humps
And one seems trapped and in dire straits

As I was heading towards him to attempt
A rescue on my shoulder I felt a poke
Startled I turned around to find a four
Winged Owl and I stopped and he spoke

He said you don’t belong here and you’re
In great danger, didn’t you read the sign
Warning the other side of trespassing
By order of the Kingdom of Eberwine

I said yes but curiosity got the best of me
And there appears to be no danger here
He said that’s the problem nothing is what
It seems and you’ve yet to see what we fear

When night falls all the gentle beast
Become evil and are fixated on the ****
There’s nothing we can do to fight it
Though it’s the opposite of our will

Our days last five times that of yours
And our nights do too so beware
This is the first day but we must find where you entered, we must get you safely there

He added there’s also the creature of
The trees who is swift with his doom
But his weakness is that he loves eating
What we call the sleepy time shroom

Even though I feel compelled to venture
Further to unravel this mystery
I must leave this strange enchanted place
I know that I must cease my inquiry

The gentle beast all know I don’t belong
Here in their place and time
So I said my goodbyes and thanked the four winged Owl, and I’ll never forget Eberwine

Time Traveler

    A crazy thought just passed through
My brain and I’ve blown my own mind
Now the following words are just for
Thought and they are unrefined

For I have yet to process anything
Because there’s so much that I don’t know
But with each word typed the seconds
Slip away and none can we stow

Understand that my brain thinks randomly
I try never to do things deceptively
I’m a man of honor and pride myself
On my honesty and my integrity

So as I share this information please
Don’t put me off as being crazy
I don’t take any drugs that would
Leave me feeling light and hazy

So here goes nothing, I travel time
And my theory is we all do
For there is no true present
I know what you’re thinking koo coo

Maybe you could be right
Because I can’t present it technically
And nothing I say can change anything
But our decisions can change our destiny

So as the past slips away with each breath
We inhale of the air in our atmosphere
We experience no real present because each
Exhale is in the future like a time traveler

Dawn Of Fire

     Since the beginning of time
We’ve known that our time will end
In the final days the people will beg
For more but none will he lend

For the saved there’s no worry
Only the unsaved are taking the risk
Maybe they think that time can be
Saved on a USB or a re writeable disk

Time it ticks away quickly and soon
There’ll be a darkness of eternal night
The people will choke on the smoke
And feel the heat of the fires light

This is the world’s doom, we can’t change it
But one can change their fate
It’s up to each individual and I pray
If you haven’t please do before it’s too late

If you don’t believe, that’s fine but In a
Vision I saw the flames were getting higher
For it is told this is the age of the beginning
Of the end and we’re living in the dawn of fire

The Perilous Realm

   The knights ride off into the valley
Knowing that they may never return
Their hearts are heavy as they leave
Filled with much concern

For there’s a thousand obstacles to
Overcome and a thousand ways to die
They must slay the Dragon and return
To the King with the Dragons eye

First task is to make it through
The valley of the walking dead
Knowing as they travel many lives
Will be lost and much blood will be bled

They must also survive the beast of the
Forest of the demon shadows
So they stop to pray and vow to
Honor their oath of the sacred rose

The kingdom is dependent upon the
Knights, the Dragon must be destroyed
For if the knights fail life in the kingdom
May become a thing of void

Their quest is to catch the Dragon as he
Sleeps just beyond the ancient elm
In his cave at the top of fire mountain
So begins the journey of the perilous realm

Suddenly

    They were strangers at the same party
Their eyes met, love at first sight suddenly
Wedding plans were made and a month
Later they were married so suddenly

Their love was bliss and it didn’t take
Long a positive pregnancy so suddenly
They were so happy with excitement
And anxiety everything coming suddenly

A house was bought and they moved in
Nursery complete so suddenly
She’s going into labor he’s at work
And they call get to the hospital suddenly

He hears over the phone there’s complications things going wrong suddenly
He’s driving as fast as he can
He must get there suddenly

He prayed don’t take them from me
If you need someone, take me suddenly
And a semi runs a red light and hit him
Broadside and it took his life suddenly

And a cheer was heard loud in delivery
Momma and baby are doing fine suddenly
And someone had to tell mamma the
News and everything changed so suddenly

Our lives so precious, so live and love
And change your life suddenly
For life is too short and temporary and
In the blink of an eye it can end that suddenly

Reign OF Terror

      In the narrow London streets
In the heavy mist and chill
In the thick London fog, he’d hide
In the shadows and move in for the ****

With the dusk comes the breeze
Your hair rises is the killer near
In the night hear the screams
In your veins feel the fear

His victims, Annie Chapman, Mary Ann Nichols, Frances Coles, Elizabeth Stride,
Alice McKenzie, no matter how carefully
They tried, from his wrath they couldn’t hide

London Police were left Baffled
They dubbed him Jack the Ripper
He was swift and smooth
There was no one slicker

For even with every clue and every lead
His evilness was free from error
On the narrow streets in the London fog
During his Reign Of Terror

His Reign of Terror lasted for three months
Started on August 31st in 1888
And it’s believed that there were actually
11 Victims and to this day technically
They’re still unsolved.

Dazed And Confused

       It’s all different but yet the same
I feel like they did it as a game
How could it be so easy to be mistaken
I know it’s English but feels Jamaican

It always comes down to pronunciation
Sometimes it might seem like flirtation
When it’s really nothing like it at all
Things can quickly begin a free fall

She wound the bandage around his
Wound for the boy was hurt
Meanwhile the soldier decided to
Desert is tasty dessert in the desert

The wind was too strong to wind
The sail around the mast
He thought there’s no time like the present
To present his present for it was time at last

It’s all different but the same and
I hope I was able to keep you amused
But as for me it’s things like this
That keeps me dazed and confused
