"conviviality" poems
well then shepherd in the mess why does that sharpened cowl of wheat surround those sweet yams in the satchel, some scene of loosening transgressions, no pear ripening itself one dull, and one unfulfilling afternoon, rolls down over its branch of sister and brother father and mother Bartletts from the stem, only to make its way into the bottom of that stretched out tawny hide. Where by the wayside every other nobody can see straight inside when a hand moves in, sweeps its fist and then goes deeply down into that can of rotten novelties we all hate, but you feel keeps us in suspense. I wonder will it ever end? Bells busting from the insides of their guts, another candy shock, up and bounces, popcorn kernels, roasted almond slivers, and some preceding green vegetable posted on the 8th St. Diner marquee display on 9th, another advertisement fighting at the sore, devoured hunger for that silhouette following closely behind the moistened wells where my brush dabs lightly into the cup before the gouache and paint mixture begin to dry, that is where I wait and wonder why? Why? Pained with hunger but besmirched with fright, skin sweaty, knotted like muslin yards growing weak against the coil. So humbling were the groans that nearly a decade crossed swiftly across his face, only five or ten minutes had passed before another twenty years flowed into the vast matrix of the rivers of blue sweat marked by estuaries, creeks, and streams across the brow, down the cheeks, and ultimately across the neck, lazing down into the chest, before settling its heavy panic soaking in the guts. Where a heavy glass brick has been vitrifying in the sun, never have two people seen the steamy and piping-hot quarry go from its conviviality and festivity of life, into this shriveled up tree having found its way into the prairie where giant winds bend its branches and enormous thunderstorms nearly strangle it with its own roots. Frisked by sin and pangs of nostalgia in which a thousand thoughts intersplice the whorls imprinted upon our brains.

Muddled yet accountable. Sober yet lively. Impassive yet doting. Mixed bag of traits define him. Bowlful of big hearted fondness he carries to embrace all. Conviviality and amiability are his favourite words. Pile of rendezvous, easy reach outlook, entangles him in a maze. Still an apple of everyone's eye and quite a loved soul. Being you and always there, with joy I proclaim, cuddling happiness and ease. Best of our camaraderie, brimming with our fond memoirs is yet to be savoured. Attachment and affection remains, Love, regard grows each day, to remain forever. Blessed to have you brother, friend!!

To my brother...with love!!
Holding a golden orb, shining in magical love Glistening until eternity, shining in magical love A songbird sang for the pair, high in the sky above Tunes of longevity, of an endearing love Heart treads entwined, under the moon's glove Dreams spun in fidelity, a truly splendid love Traveling the beautiful path, of a seasonal dove Two souls meshed with conviviality, sparkling their love Their lifelong bond so exquisite, such wondrous love A complete circle of unity, lasting with cherishing love

Cherishing Love (Ghazal Poem)
On a blue and alabaster evenings , snowfall glows beneath the Winter Sun , joyous , spirited afternoons and conviviality among old friends and family .. Red ribbons and tinsel , the warmth of burning Oak and Hickory , tall evergreen shadows , garland , ornaments with magnificent brilliance enhance the festive celebration on this Day of Miracles ...

Merry Christmas
Glimpsed of innocence Casually met Words from strangers A lot in common Wine and smiles Unsolicited lies Cool distaste Remnants of disrespect Cracks in the ice The inevitable rift Fragmented faces The corrosion of moments.

Conviviality
When your eye first caught, a passing glimpse of mine, all the world was not in response to you, divine If my love, by you were to be received hand in hand, pulled in tactile knots a love story, to write and to read all other essences forgot Join me, as one essence conviviality of our arms to watch a moving picture, mesmerized by luminescence unequivocally present, a moon and its stars Walk down our favorite street with me, as I jump on the red fall leaves my radiant smile back at you, sweet a kiss forever carefree.

An Elizabethan Love Poem for English Class
Our reflections on a brass doorknob . A skeleton key would slowly turn each tumbler .. Dusty pinewood flooring , antique trinkets .. Propane space heaters and fresh coffee balm private , erstwhile collective memories . A matriarchs kitchen , well water aroma and cross stitched towels , her flour tinged cotton apron , cast iron skillets and brass tea kettle with porcelain service ushers spirited times of conviviality over a simple oak dining room table .. Hand made breakfast nook curtains , the majesty of tall Water Oaks with foraging bantam hens and roosters .. Dirt roads would tell of visitors long before they ever arrived , fishing for shell crackers at the old bridge with cane poles and and dough ***** , leftovers from cat head biscuits at breakfast ... Pecans and crabapples fed young anglers on shady Summer afternoons . Feeding tall grass to black angus and hereford cattle through barbed wire fence , collecting afternoon eggs and walking the furrows at Dusk , days I'll never forget ..

Great Grandmothers Place ...
Then on the turn, When the the eleventh was born, I picked up the horn, And put the charm on; Tense, anxious, unsure, I listened, intently, To what the airwaves bore, Pleasantly surprised, heavenly; This one, velvety Most amazing tone, Dripping from a creamy cone, Bothering, subtly, on **** grins What to admire, The complicated complexity, Or the cheeky conviviality? Hmm...cold fire.

Hypocritical catastrophe, Irreverent duplicity, Luminarial ludiocrity, Nonsensical impetuosity. Flippy floppy, slippy sloppy, Blamey gamey, shame, shame, shame. Constitutional incongruity, Jesuitical dictatoriality, Oxymoronic partiality, Nepotistic surreality. Materialistic abnormality, Monetaristic conviviality , Ritualistic mediocrity, Histrionic philanthropy. Gotten rotten, misbegotten Seldom truthful, lie, lie, lie. Misdirection genuflection, Malefaction justification, Incarceration implication, Resignation profliferation. Prevarication reiteration, Damnation indication, Malefaction direction Undetected discretion. Flippy floppy, slippy sloppy, Blamey gamey, shame, shame, shame.

CATACLYSMIC CATECHISM
A veil of light and ashen grey invites me to peer in to stranger day fluttering and beckoning behind it what is happening? a smorgasboard of molten colour winks at me, summons me near I become swept up, in hurricane that rolls and waves across the plane of one reality in to another 'Tis here I feel my spirit brew imbued with bright, celestial hue deep in hinterlands of enchanting joy where I ravish these pleasures coy too overwhelmed to fight, resist the very light with which I'm kissed from famished eyes I am engorged my tender spirit enlarged on trajectory of bliss On horizon, magic gestates Leaves my spirit insatiate Adorned by sparks phantasms brood Lifting like hot air balloon my mood Between chasm of magic and reality Goes visions with conviviality Enchanting the mind with true force Summoned from natures magic purse Which sprinkles havoc on normality Forms of Beauty riddle my eye With their heavenly symmetry Godesseses of divinest shine Beam soul-deep, from theirs to mine Behind the veil of usual routine Lies awesome truth with golden sheen Nourishing the spirits belly To magical shores the spirit ferried Enamoured of most lucid of dreams

Beyond The Veil
Pair up and be saved. Pair up and look away. Avert your eyes to the most depraved in our times: The Herods, Caligulas, the Dorian Grays. Focus on your own lives; raise a family. Fight those wanton propensities. Avoid flagrant conviviality. Do not cross that line of becoming too free. Like those so many victims of their own enormities, each one a slave to their every desire and whim. Pair up and be shipped off - delivered from sin.

Deliverant Duo
In contrast with the cold morning air, The house was cozy and warm As we all arrived to participate Like worker bees starting to swarm. The smell of pork and refried beans Permeated the room. The champagne bottles were chilling on ice-- How much did we consume? Sally brought some egg McMuffins. I thought, "Something's amiss: Egg McMuffins and NO pan dulce!°° What kind of party is this?" But I wouldn't miss it--nope--for nada: The annual Alonzo family tamalada. The giant bucket of masa°°° awaited Marisa's kneading hands. While she kneaded the dough, the rest of us Listened for Sally's commands. After a brief champagne toast, Our assembly line started. Everyone had a job to do; It wasn't for the faint-hearted. Spreading the masa on the husks Was a messy task. I wondered, "How many will we make?" But I was afraid to ask. It wasn't very long before Everyone in the casa Was practically covered from head to foot With fluffy tamale masa. We spread and stuffed and folded and wrapped While Sally entertained us. The conversation, laughter, fun, And champagne all sustained us. The wonderful smells of lunch also Encouraged us to work hard Lest we be known as shirkers and our Reputations be marred. But I wouldn't miss it--nope--for nada: The annual Alonzo family tamalada After a few hundred tamales, The masa was getting low. I said, "Yay! We're almost done!" But Alice said, "Oh, no. That was just the pork; now we're Making chile and cheese." Blurry-eyed I held up my spoon And said, "More hojas,°°°° please." On and on we continued to work Like hive bees making honey. But it was worth it, for these tamales Are more valuable than money. Alice, Yvonne, Kathy, Yolie, Aida, and Sally know why-- As do Marisa, Rebecca, Karen, Marisol, Nancy, and I-- We always look forward to getting together For laughter, fun, and cheer And this spirited, heart-warming gathering Whenever December is here. Homemade tamales can't be beat When made in our special fashion With love, care, conviviality, Warmth, goodwill and passion. I wouldn't miss it--nope--for nada: The annual Alonzo family tamalada. __________ °tamale-making party °°Mexican sweet bread °°°dough °°°°(corn husk) leaves - by Bob B

What now, the loss of limbs in a distant conflagration? The seeping brains amongst poppy fields? The myriad nature of violent death, outside of journalistic imagination A grind of experience on which the lost youth builds. What now? Within the shredding blasts euphoria The élan of a soldier, in memoria Downing drinks in the Stag and Hare After a tour, ordinary actions reek of tedium There is, in the conviviality, no rush of adrenalin there Fermenting trouble establishes a happy medium. Quarrelling with a man who wears a business suit Is displaced adventure, smashing his face in is a hoot. What now? A mate, a favoured friend, dies in the dirt When whistling a tune, recalling the holiday in Spain, the family, A shot coursing through his unbuttoned shirt Deflating his lung, another shattering his knee When he died, his platoon died too, Metaphorically; the snipers aim was true. Bottled up in Basra, aimlessly wandering in Helmand A shrill event on News at Ten between politics and football, Another death, another iconic face, the catasphropic end Of a youthful life. What now? The swift end to a morning stroll Amongst watching villagers in dry breathless mountains Empty streams and florescent fountains. In the terracotta dirt my soul leaked away My final return was like a funeral celebration, I said nothing anymore. I had nothing left to say. I’d given my youth to a sniping cynical nation. What now? It was over for me in a grasping world- A gooey puddle spread beneath me as my soul evacuated.

Paint Me a Picture Paint me a picture With fiery red clashing with sentimental blue With groovy orange dancing with golden yellow With hidden messages etched in the pigment Paint me a picture Where lamentation of the ****** is naught Where trumpets announce the coming of conviviality Where the background is illuminated with fierce fireworks Paint me a picture

Night of The Archangels ....
Real work, whether of mind or body. Real work isn't a job or an occupation. It is any effort that occurs when what you know and what you do converge with who you really are. Mammalian warmth: the touch of human bodies in all it's wonder and pleasure that reminds me of Nietzsche's saying, "First, be a healthy animal." A cat's purr. It's existence requires no justification; it is complete in itself. Blueberries, the plants and the fruit. A feast for every sense. Books, movies, and works of art that are so compelling they take you on a vacation from reality by creating their own more vivid reality. My white, 1997 Saturn with 245,000 miles on it. A gift from an angel, I call her Moby and together we sail the asphalt seas. She's a real lady. Birds. They fill the world with color and music and desire no profit in return. A lovely woman with bare legs in a sun dress. As Wallace Stevens said, "Beauty is momentary in the mind, the fitful tracing of a portal, but in the flesh it is immortal." The electric charge of lips touching lips, of flesh brushing flesh. Anything, on a woman, that is made of silk. Silk is exquisite, elegant and ****** Weeds that flower, because their beauty is unexpected. Evan Williams bourbon. Exquisite distilled ****** that burns and satisfies. Cool evenings after hot days. Conversation that sparkles with intelligence, wit and conviviality. Warren Zevon, Thelonious Monk and Mozart, not necessarily in that order. True friends. When the chips are down, they are a treasure more valuable than even family. The magical, healing sound of flowing water. Trees, especially the deciduous. Their greenness speaks to and cools my spirit. Writing and reading poetry, my craft and my solace. Love. It is elusive and difficult and perhaps impossible, but the belief that it may be out there sustains even the jaded, aging life. The fecundity of the unexpected. Fireflies. Almost too much beauty for one world. Sunrises, because they bring the undeserved possibility of another shot at redemption. Garlic, the spice of the gods. And on and on... - mce

O, from what Heaven hast thou departed, Imbued with the aura of eternity, A dalliance of dreams thou has started, With conviviality and fraternity, We waltz and dance across the stars; I communicate their joys in verse, Begetting tender and sonorous bars, That sing of the flowering Universe. Now thou hast taken my hand in thine, I know not the sadness of earlier times, We fathom Love and soar divine, Erasing bruises of Love's earlier lacerations, crimes. Towards brighter day we, ebullient, go Dreaming, rocking to and fro.

O, from what Heaven hast thou departed
Raise thy slumbering, majestic heads And see the light from divine ether bled Which casts a glow upon reality Truths go bold with conviviality To be by discerning eye read The light is bright, puts up a fight It's on the side of our delight The ride is wild so sit down tight And enjoy the whirring sight Our spirits shall soar like floating kites For having been blessed by sacred rites The charge of light is irrepressible And enchants the spirit irascible That the evil blights

Charge Of The Light Fantastic
Swift was dusk, reminding people how time flies by quickly before one realized. Their world was separated, two boundaries that could never met, as was fated by heaven itself. Slip from the crack of the boundary, The two illusionary figures collide. Stretching across the land, White flakes cover every nook and cranny, Their figures were like two magnets attracted toward one another. She knew of his name that was covered in blood. He had walked a path filled with corpses, the murderer who slaughtered millions with his sword. Looking at him from a distance, she laughed. Nothing was needed to be said, for words were meaningless to the both of them than the look they gave to each other. The country is broken, though hills and rivers remain, In the city in spring, the grass and trees are thick. Chaos, like oil mixing with water, order is not to be anchored. Enemy, are many; Peace is few. In this world, my enemy is numerous as clouds, Are you willing to accompany my path? Her smile was the blooming spring that would be coming. Somehow, she had always believed in him. He would never fail her. If he walked the path filled with obstacles, then she would accompany him! Alone in the northern lands, The two of them burrow their feet in the earth, Hands held gently against one another as they faced each other. A tranquil solemnity befalls on the place, as all of nature was to witness the soon unity of the couple, Far from the turmoil of the world. First, Prayer to the heaven and earth present to witness their love. As if signifying their presence, The earth shook, the clouds cleared. Their heads held high, and their gaze locked onto each other. A bow to Heaven and Earth, This bow is as surreal as a dream. First thanking Heaven for bestowing conformity upon the two of us, Allowing me to meet you among billions of people, Till white-haired yet never parted. A bow to Heaven and Earth, Kneeling love and hate into dust, Before kowtowing the earth, permitting a place of quietude for the both of us. let us imagine the world hatred as congratulatory, In the end, neither of us owning the other anything, This life, this moment, There are only the twos of us. And the final bow to Heaven and Earth, the last to represent that they would stick through thick and thin, a bow to each other, Immemorial promises to remind each other that they are one yet not, alone yet together. Their conviviality was sent as a prayer to Heaven and Earth, coveting their thoughts for peace, And may it last forever more, under the eternal heaven. If not this life, In the next life, May we meet again.

Buddha wakes up bursting in to song Effulgent with the love of life A mind's expanse to suppress the throng Of suffering to which all souls are wife Seeing war a strategy of illusion built Deceiving the divine dalliance of time It functions in minds, yet beyond Tyrants act and grown men mime Dreaming, rocking to and fro Dancing, clapping as they go Children under the bodhi tree Taste wisdom as it rains and snows Their art is the joyful revolution With yet withstand a cynic's trial The intellect? a phony judge The heart? compassionate of all Propaganda of hate's reality Yet heaped upon the ones who see The way with theatricality Go oppressors with conviviality With the millenium's golden quill I'll break devil's confraternity With wanton wit and whimsical will Spell peace in stars across eternity Loves destiny to be immortalised sublime In words that vanquish hell and transcend time.

Buddha manifesto
In the fullness of time the Truth runs clear To those who yield to its ebb and flow The riddle is resolved and the answer appears Through percipient perception it goes Beneath distraction and illusion Lies the fearsome, awesome Reality Through which the Truth's effusion Goes with conviviality We live to strive to know it's flame For it casts light on our Heart's path Disabuses the ruse and game And heals in its aftermath O Truth, you showed me in bad health And brought back to life my truest self
