Fate of my soul
When I pass and on the other side,
The life I lived can no longer hide.
What awaits when I cross that line?
Will my soul be guided to The Divine?
Death’s door 'tis a portal I’ve heard tell,

Morbidly pondering what happens at death and how the soul’s energy migrates back to Genesis.

Friend
My best mate’s name is Roger,
Who uses his charm as a cover,
He’s gilded and quite the artful dodger,
From three heart attacks he did recover,
And he’s far from dead the old codger.
Dedicated to a long-time friend of mine, it’s an aging thing.

Captain Rum
I am a captain and have no commands,
Hailing from Jamaica and many other lands,
Available worldwide to everyone’s hands,
Places like Bermuda with beaches of golden sand,
Where there's craic and tan and tourists are in demand.
A little spirited pun with one of my favorite Captain’s.

Lent
Once upon a time lived an old penitent,
That used to fast every Lent,
Just to keep things even-steven,
Would only eat bread that was unleaven,
To survive the Holy season.
A limerick pun for Lent

My Morning Prayer
O guardian angel, my sinful way,
Brings me to my state of disarray.
I implore you to be that omnipresence,
Deep within my very conscience.
To you, now, I do silently pray,
Bring me God’s divine grace today.
A prayer of exorcism for the author

My Daily Brew
Just had my Timmie’s for today,
It made my cobwebs go away,
My caffeine in a reusable cup,
Such a fantastic morning pick-me-up.
And along with my java, I ate a fritter,
A delicious, tasty, chunky, apple critter.
A shout out to Tim Horton’s Inc. who bring a taste of home to our military service personnel and sponsorship of community programs in the towns and cities where they do business.

NATO -Not my war
In '98, there was a war to liberate Kosovo,
That conflict was a against a much smaller foe.
A battle waged and now forgotten by NATO?
They intervened, first by getting air superiority,
And justified their action as a "humanitarian war",
Looking back to a previous war in the European theatre with non-NATO combatants.

The Schmick
The vociferous schmick with his stick,
Laying in to people with rhetoric,
We can’t engage in war you see,
Our Nation is one of neutrality.
Even when it’s genocide by a maniacal dick.
The war in Ukraine has the entire world on edge. It’s citizens are brave, heroic people but are also seeing many casualties and people getting killed. In todays world, these horrific stories are trans...
WORDS
Words once uttered can never be taken back.
Whether spoken, written in praise, jest or verbal attack.
Smear assault is a moral low and can remain unseen,
Nowadays most often read and shared on a computer screen.
Words, we all use them every day to interact with fellow humans, animals, objects and sometimes to one’s self alone. We put words together as part of our language, these are used to express thoughts, ...
I.O.L.A. (Island Of Little America)
Oh, to the land of Saints, Scholars, Poets and culture of lore,
That land where the faerie and leprechaun are the tale of yore,
A reflective look at both an apparent cultural and attitude shift in Ireland as more Americanisms embed themselves in every day lives of the Irish.
