Boy of [Blank]

If this reflects me and you
It was not meant to be wondered on
It was meant to be the natural state
The thorax of the beetle
Lifting its wings and spurting the venom
I’m not the natural artist you thought I was
It’s taken the sweat of lakes...

The Writer

To find a place
Where I often think and strive,
Musing about what won’t erase.

A place where poems
And stories come alive,
My mind in greatness roams.

I can’t control, I note
What others contrive,
Whether or not it’s remote.

I will...

Love is God

Jesus is the Son of God,
Confess and abide in Him;
Give Him honor and laud,
Receive His spiritual vim.

We come to know and believe,
The love that God has for us;
Knowing the love we receive,
In abiding in as thus.

For this love is...

An Ode: For My Mother

Dearest mother, I wish to write to thee
On this motherly day of love and glee
To tell you how much I appreciate
The role that you’ve played in shaping my fate.
For, without your patient, loving way,
I would most certainly have gone astray.
Yet...

"Manushi" (Human)

it's been a long time since
I wrote about you.
Just like that auspicious day of Pujo
when I saw you.
I went from afar for Pujo's darshan, Suddenly my eyes fell on your eyes.

What crossed my mind,

 I don't know,
You spoke with a...

Cut my Stems --,-'@

--,-'-@
My garden is overgrown but thriving
From the fence, watching them slowly dying
What keeps them alive is beyond me
But I involuntarily refuse to find the key to save them

It's a tease
Only because my hope is stubborn to secede

In Denver

A man can't silence his heart and soul in anyway permanently. Daily life announces itself to the living and in some fashion U have to be involved. The essence of human life even among the shy will pull at U for connection...

I Have Fallen

I Have Fallen
By: Jonathan Conway

Who am I to conform
On a stage of lies I perform
To societal expectations we are born
Not yet to comfort for we are forlorn
The truest of all pains
Loneliness is the worst of all chains
For who am I to...

Calling Me Home (Day 10 - The End) unedited

Day #10: Williams To Las Vegas

I knew the next morning the ride back to Las Vegas was going to be flat and uninteresting. The short detour (spur) I took at Seligman, onto old Rt.#66, provided little in the way of anything new. After a week at...

Wishing Well (Anthology)

Wishing Well

Standing by, fishing coins out my pockets
There's a well that'll help someone in need
Foggy clouds I'd love to block
To clear up overgrown weeds

Throwing one coin in the air
I hope you find a...

Love Thy Enemy

Centuries before you and me ,
A wise sage preached ,
" Love Thy Enemy"
A fool was he ,
For how could we ,
Love our enemy?
On his head was placed a crown of thorns,
He was whipped till his flesh had shorn,
Nailed to a cross for all to see ,

The century.

The century.

The bowler took long steps
to throw the orb to the batsman.
The ball pitched few yards short
and the batsman hit it to boundary.
The crowd started hue and cry.

The batsman was knocking the door of a century.
He was another...
