The Black Steed

He charges headlong into the foray

His lady love her hand will ever stay

On his belovèd breast and her renown

Will follow on and all others will confound.

To rescue her from her heartless blame

He, eternal victory does claim

Over the demonic hoards that seek her doom

Receding her psyche to the single room.

The Black steed plunges into the battle

The bones of the Knight do surely rattle

As he lunges with sword and stave

Sending hate and blame to the eternal grave.

Her hand gently on his breast does rest

She his lady love now will caress

And love her still though all others fail

Faith centred and recited in the holy grail.

Singular

She rides alone over hill and dale

To fall in love would heart fail

To stand the promise she made to the one

Who her heart has now forever won.

He alone, The Black King is her bridegroom

No other love will she give house room

But stand alone in the intense squall

Reigning and ruling over them all.

Alone she rides over the mountains deep

Over the seas and into the valleys to keep

The right way and the good way forever

She everlasting life does savour. 

Through the darkness she rides alone

No one else can bear the throne

That she must rule with a rod of iron

Nothing and no one will brand her fire

She conquers all her just rewards

And everlasting life now hoards. 

Lost in the city

She sits in the window of the shop

Waiting for true love to drop

From the music in the earphones

Romance from them now drones

False love and folly beats it out

Love that has no future or clout

Hurt is better than nothing

She fears the nothing 

Lost in the city she sits

For a heart that fits

Her psyche and her dreams that flit

Back and forth from thoughts that fit

The predisposition to love 

Given to her by God above.

The Prodigal family

They threw her out- The Thin White Queen

Thinking they could escape the loveless in between

But they lost it all, her love and care

Vanquished was their psyche bare.

She retreated to the palace a place so heavenly

Where peace dropped slow from the atmosphere gently

Waiting in close regard for the coming day

When all would be revealed and they would stay

Close to her beating heart

That beats for them so far apart

Her mind in tune with the Father above

Peace reigns in her as a holy dove

No wrinkle or spot on her peaceful psyche

Sleep seeps into her nightly

Gentleness and love is her chief concern

For loves gentle caress her heart does yearn…

Stay in the peaceful spot

Love will come when war is stopped… 

The Lover

The King of Hearts is fallen in rapturous visions

Filling His whole heart and leaving no divisions

Every chamber full of love for His people

Not just those buried under the steeple.

He loves the unlovely and those left aside

On The Milk White Steed He will steadily ride

Capturing the hearts of those who lay them down

Giving their all and staying faithful to the ground

On which they stand, the Holy Scripture

Waiting for the day when His return will rapture

The hearts of His Beloved one, for whom He died

And are waiting for His love to be espied.

Tails flyin’

The Thin White Glide with tails flyin’

Means she’s not buying

It’s too neat and certain

Make the effort and pull the curtain

Over to reveal true loves

Gliding down the streets she roves

And slips and slides down the streets

Of city pathways and daily greets

Loves warm embrace

Face to face

In reality

A frailty…

Skin

I saw you with your smooth clear skin

Striking a hammer deep within

My psyche reminding me 

that I am free

Free to do what is right and choose

The holy way that I will cruise

Until I am called beyond the sky

The Thin White Queen will have to die

And release the joy that abides within

The Queen with skin so slim and thin… 

Two White Steeds

Two White Steeds dash across the plains

Reciprocating each other’s pains

Nothing can separate the live that binds

Those who suffer together confines

Them to eternal realms of bliss

Nothing can hesitate the heart of this 

Gallop and gallop and never to stop

This speed and passion is all they’ve got

To keep them in the royal throne of love

They dash it all to the skies above

Over the stars and beyond the clouds

Cloying clutching hands now disavowed

Freedom holds sway and the open air

Leaving them standing and breathing the air

Of lives blissful day over and away

In the arms of each other they ever stay. 

Milk White Steed

He rides in on the Milk White Steed

A King above all Kings indeed 

Looking for His true love from afar

Searching every land and seaside bower.

She conquers Him and catches the reins

Over the whole countryside she reigns

The Thin White Queen tips the balance

Raises up the golden chalice

Of blood red wine which she now drinks

In the palace of her King she thinks

Only of the good and never ill

Loving him in the chambers of her heart still. 

The Milk White Steed scoops her up in high

Into the cloud and yonder do they fly

Two true lovers on the powerful wing

Into the deep blue yonder they bring and mount

On the wings of power that leads them to eternity

Where they will reign freely and completely. 

After all these years

After all these years, The Black King comes riding in

To rescue me from your sick besetting sin

Of laziness that infiltrates your very breast

Jealous of the bright and shining rest

Of all my wit and wisdom that is displayed

For one and all to see and was played

Your friendly Bishop was in on it too

My brightness did daily eschew.

Your rubbed your hands at my demise

And the glory of God in woman you despise

Your verdict now lingers in the air

For you are plunged into a deep despair

How will you answer the judgment call

When the holy gavel will on you fall?

For she is rampant and now free

She rests easy and life is sweet – a tree

That yields rich fruit and will hold you down

Until the day of heaven’s frown.
