A Masterpiece: Jo-Anne Paley

11/15/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

Love began Pleasing us We listened to our hearts Whispering Let it happen Stealing from each other's past We became alike A masterpiece was created Through intertwined love Rooted in caring Wrapped in needing Encompassed in understanding A gift - a God given masterpiece Enduring a slice of heaven on earth together Becoming each other's … Continue reading A Masterpiece: Jo-Anne Paley

Every Little Thought: James Adamson

11/15/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

To the Glory of God To Gwyneth, with Love There is a miracle to every little thought As Shakespeare speaks the dullest person has insight We attribute easily But wait, what light from yonder brainstorm breaks It is intelligence and truth is the sun The way we surprise ourselves Whether from the moment or some … Continue reading Every Little Thought: James Adamson

Witches’ Brew: Cassandra Kulay

11/15/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

The cat cries, the witches scry, The cauldron steams and bubbles, Spells to remove or fix your troubles. The moon is full in a starry sky, ask How but do not ask why, a doll, An amulet, a bird to sacrifice, the Building chants fuel their power, As near we pull to the witching Hour, … Continue reading Witches’ Brew: Cassandra Kulay

To Love Thyself: C. Fay Shlanda

11/15/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

I have enjoyed the love of another Had the unyielding love of a mother Love that is kind One that was blind A fiery feeling no one could smother I have been witness to a love so true Watched them in awe from afar as it grew A love so fair Without a care Unaware … Continue reading To Love Thyself: C. Fay Shlanda

Drifting: Bradley McKay

11/15/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

Thoughts uneasy racing around like a spinning top. Mind cloudy, sadness consumes me, my tears fill a cup. No sound, no fear, hazy things in my head. Thoughts no longer there as I drift off inside my mind. Deeper and deeper. I'm here now in the No Fly Zone. Where I hide out 'til I'm … Continue reading Drifting: Bradley McKay

One Must Get Up When One Has Fell: Stephen W. Sigurdson

10/12/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

Here I sit, absent of wit. Full of stress, shaking my house of cards. I just need a sign, an energy, a smile, something positive to aid an ailing soul. Too much strain on my kindred heart. My life’s puzzle missing pieces To finally to become a part. Do you know the answer? Do know … Continue reading One Must Get Up When One Has Fell: Stephen W. Sigurdson

Something in the Night: Robert St. Germain

10/12/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

Something in the night, it has me hypnotized. And something in the air takes me for a ride. Up into the sky, I fly just like a bird. The darkness speaks to me, and I hang on every word. No longer am I a man but a raven way up high. And it feels so … Continue reading Something in the Night: Robert St. Germain

The Love of a Couple: Richard Edwards

10/12/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

The dream of being with one who loves you, if your heart is true it will be. Set your heart free to look upon the sea of humanity it is thee. Your genuine heart calls for another to see who you be, there is an art that comes from thy heart it sets the love … Continue reading The Love of a Couple: Richard Edwards

The Flower: Pamela Wain

10/12/2019 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

A little girl is like a flower When she is little she has no power She is a seed that wants to grow A gentle wind, a caressing flow. The seed sprouts out of the dirt Until somebody wants to flirt The little seed halts her growth She wants to grow but she can’t have … Continue reading The Flower: Pamela Wain
