Baptism of a Transient: James Adamson

04/26/202404/25/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

To the glory of God,to Gwyneth with love. Where shadows break free of concreteBark on a winter tree tells talesPeople duck awayLove reaches its’ heights in a hand shakeSweat is like hair gelClothes never fitFamilies offer a closed fistFriends hang in suspenseStepping into church with pants around his hipsHaving to wonder about the intentions he … Continue reading Baptism of a Transient: James Adamson

The World is too Fast: Joyce Lancaster

04/26/202404/25/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

Spinning, this way,And that way,Coming here, and there,Answering text, email, voicemail.I can’t imagine the older days, when there was no running water.I’m hoping I don’t become too much of a frantic haze for us.Got to remain calm, until the end of the day.

Let’s Talk About Love: Renata Bikar

04/26/202404/25/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

I once read Belcourt’s quote that said,“To love someone, is to firstly confess,I’m prepared to be devastated by you”. I once read a quote of yet another man,It seems that in lifePeople who love youDon’t know how to show it.And, people who hate you,Don’t know how to hide it. I once wrote a poem, about … Continue reading Let’s Talk About Love: Renata Bikar

We See Thee: Richard Edwards

04/26/202404/25/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

We see theeShe rises into the skyHer beauty calls the dreamer to dream She is an angelShe moves toward the children as they playHer hope is that they will be safe The children run about and playThe song is beautyThat must be remembered The dove has risenWe have seen itThat can not be The angel … Continue reading We See Thee: Richard Edwards

Love Isn’t Poison: Robert St. Germain

04/26/202404/25/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

Love isn’t poison,It’s good for you.When it doesn’t work out you may feel a little blue.At least you can say you had some fun.It’s worth a try when it’s all said and done.Maybe down the road love will be found.And the wonderful love will turn you around.Love can bite you in the ass.Either way it’s … Continue reading Love Isn’t Poison: Robert St. Germain

Woman of the Woods: Robert St. Germain

04/26/202404/25/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

Woman of the woods, dancing by the fire.She chants as her soul rises higher.The moonlight gives her joy and power.She escapes this earth more every hour.Mother Nature in her blood.Her feet stomp on the dirt and mud.Her she is, the mistress of the night.Underneath the stars so bright.

Human: Brittney Fox

03/23/202403/21/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

When we were granted the gravity to this Earth;and the nurturing of Mother Nature’s expression.We were handed a place, in the grand kaleidoscopefor our chance at an evolutionary, galactic experience.We were granted our shot to stand on this stage, at this time.With the blessing from the magic of mercury,we get to take a stand, on … Continue reading Human: Brittney Fox

Special Dreams: Joyce Lancaster

03/22/202403/21/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

When you go to sleep.So quiet the stars are resting,The sun is in full view.Winter is in full rest.The birds are in their nests.Children sleep.When you sleepYou can’t hear a peep.

Puppets: Robert St. Germain

03/22/202403/21/2024 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

We all have someone to answer to.And someone to tell us what to do.Some of us realize, well many never knew.The church and the government are part of the system that keeps us down.When I see people enslaved it makes my frown.We are all put in packages to make us comply.And most of us will … Continue reading Puppets: Robert St. Germain
