Graces Poems

Quiet Thoughts Revealed

From a world of enternal slumber
comes the beating of a gentle heart
Its rise and fall
timed with the thunder that rolls above.

From the darkness of time intertwined
comes the faith of love unfurlled
Its silky fabric
weaved in fates delicate threads

From passages of immortality
is heard a dire cry
For the pain that seeps into this slumber
fate hath no sunder

The Immortality of Life

From lifes immortal blood
drips the sands of time
its salty tears fills the oceans
river flow and roar
its heat of passion melts the core
volcanoes erupt and life is born

But remember...
lifes' temper hath no understudy
for when its passion cools ice envelopes all
the earth quakes and the skies open
but so does the tender breeze blow
and the waves caress

Life is often harsh
it cruelly takes
kindly provides
sweetly touches
or tears apart
always unrelenting

Accept lifes immortal embrace
Accept it for what it is
It never hides its vengence
Or cloaks itself in fear
Life simply is Eternal Truth, and purity
Honesty in itself

There are no fake facades
No need for mortal things
There is no death at all
For in the purest essence of mortal life
the spark still fires
lifes's eternal flame

Be earth, wind, fire or water
life balances and moves all
Life is more than spirit
more than a mortal mind can comprehend
Life is woven in around us, through us, in us
Life quite simply is

So when you tread upon it
dishonor and discard it
think about what surrounds it
Life is eternal renewal
There is no escape from the simple truth
Life does as it wills.

Upon the Tathered Window Paine

Upon the tathered window paine
I listen to the quiet rain.

The wind comes and goes
Sometimes it simply blows

But still the silence embraces
The memories of family faces

Their deaths collide
Emotional waves at high tide

They died of things that ought not be
They died of cancer and disease

My uncle lies upon the bed
St. Joseph's cross above his head

He sits and waits for death
With every struggled exhaled breath

He watches the clock
It ticks and it tocks

He can not look upon his wife
Without him she will live her life

His daughters eyes meet his
She knows and understands what is

He looks upon his son
Still tired from his run

He heard about his dad
He had heard the news was bad

Taking another labored breath
My uncle begs quietly for his death

Sometimes I think it is best alone
When one is empathically prone

To sit in silence
In a quiet alliance

While upon a tathered window paine
I listen to the quiet rain

The Imperium Igneum RPG

My home, The Imperium Igneum, welcomes those who enjoy role playing but also has an area for those just wishing to drop by and make some new friends.

The Empire is ruled by Imperial Elder Prince Apollon, The Dark One, Supreme Lord of the Dark Fire. He has observed the world for centuries, hidden in the shadows, waiting, amassing knowledge and wealth. He saw the world decay around him and waited till the time was right. Rising and calling forth his chancellors he has set the world upon a new course.

I am honored to be one of Imperial Elder Prince Apollon's Chancellors. He has kindly afforded, and bestowed upon me, the opportunity to also serve as the Lord of the Mortal City of Velia as well as His Supreme Librarian and Archivist.

We hope You will choose to come and visit us often, and if inspiration should strike, to enter our world and embrace a life unlike any other.
