The Creation Of Woman

The Creation Of Woman

The hummingbird is life’s metaphor of man;
drawn by love’s nectar to woman’s flower;
by process of pollination, when life first began;
all brought about by the Master’s power.

The man commands with power in his voice;
the woman chooses gentle persuasion;

Self Deprecating Pride

Self Deprecating Pride

We’ve heard and seen self deprecating humor;
it’s a subtle way of gaining attention;
perhaps, it’s our way of excising the tumor;
expecting others; our honor, to mention.

Unfortunately, within; we’ve something to hide;
and we want it to remain hidden;
deep within;

Self Promotion

Self Promotion

Most who are born, sit upon a throne;

a statement, counterintuitive and iconic;
the minister declares, “Rest in peace!”

It seems foolish; as family members cry;
the casket, carried by somber faces;
