The forget me knot is a knot the Lord tithes well... ~Peat
Lip To Lore - (the Treasure of Today)
We wet our lips at the fountain of youth,
An endless thirst for a quenchless truth.By the sparkle of its coin it’s clear to see,
The treasure of today will always be.Dreams of perfection don't fade away,
And with you in my life it's here today.Now the fountain of youth is life itself,
Dreams fulfilled define our wealth.Treasure of today for tomorrow to see,
Blossoms on a branch of our family tree.So quench life's thirst my loving child,
May your dreams come true in epic style.

The Affinity Inn
Indigent in morale,
The viceroy of lust.
Avarice in desire,
No affinity for trust.
Boisterous in voice,
With bragging a must.
Facetious in verse,
Once morning till dusk.
Wanton in manner,
Life seemed a bust.
Travailed in addiction,
Soul but a crust.
Ignoble in character,
The hypnotic white dust.~Peat

60 short verse or phrases by ~Peat
"Infinity went up for sale today, no need for lines no need to pay, no need to push no need to shove, plenty of room in the heavens above.
choice / shouldn't be chosen lightly / choosing is such a pain / left without any choices / who would you chose to blame?
There is my truth and there is your truth. There is our truth and there is their truth. Then there is the truth and thee is over there. There, The Truth..
I've never written a poem that wasn't really its draft, each word as if a sailing ship, to be tacked forever and aft.
madras mad / maze my words / paint with plaid / how absurd / shine a light / on darkened verb / left and right / succinctly heard
May the truth of God's Word prevail, for it fills my sails, may you too soon seek, the Word of God to forever keep.
What pushes my buttons now pushes my pen, like lightning it strikes God only knows when.
I often feel as if God and Satan have played tug a war with my soul but alas I know He who has won.
what it is is what it's not / trouble is is trouble sought / stupid isn't if stupid doesn't / truth it isn't if in truth it wasn't
It’s as hard to jar a jar, as it is to par a par. It’s hard to mar a mar, harder yet to scar a scar.
Money is but green paper, that is, until you have nothing to wipe with!
if the egg was her idea / then the chicken must have hatched it / chicken / final answer
hook line and sinker / is but hook line and tinker / for this hook line and thinker / of you
we pan life's gold / yet its nuggets abound / may the spark to ignite / your soul be found
You can not patent the obvious, but once a patent issues does it not become patently so?
Dreams like bonds are locked safe in the vault of our subconscious until mature.
Cross your eyes and dot your tees, may your soul soon sigh and hell soon freeze.
Thou shalt not kill so I shot him in the leg, may his wounds soon heal.
May your thirst for God's love be quenched by His tears of joy in you.
Free will is God's will, master it and you're assured a place in Heaven.
paranoia propagates propaganda / propaganda propagates paranoia
hourglass sands / deserts ebb too / oasis its hands / forever elude
A cloud can evaporate in a heartbeat, be sure to have a backup source for rainy days.
History becomes the great unknown if nothing from it remains.
a mentor is / the mentor's pause / inventing is / the inventor's cause
poetry is the art of one's heart / a poem is one's heartbeat heard
Heaven is anywhere the absence of Satin's influence is present.
The subconscious is the vault that keeps safe our dreams.
If it doesn't pour from the soul the glass will always be half empty.
A pearl of wisdom is more than just an oyster's toothache.
days of old / sings its song / tales of gold / passed along
A drop in the bucket becomes an ocean in time.
Those who have succeeded were quite often impeded.
There's no rhyme or reason why I reason with rhyme.
If it quacks like a duck, DUCK! it might be a hunter.
mind / body / and soul // kind / flabby / and old
The forget me knot is a knot the Lord tithes well.
may now / begin anew / may forever / be as true
Thiatribe is the diatribe of the misled theologian.
An arrow in its quiver can never hit its mark.
No word should be sharper than its point!
When you possess faith, fate becomes flexible.
means to an end / on patience depends
Profit sharing is one of God's early concepts.
He who laughs last often laughs alone.
Simply Smashing / Vodka Splashing
one thousand forevers / just one you
Share and share the light...
A blessing is the fruit of one's faith.
Heaven, the true land of the free.
God's word, take it or leave...
Truth twisted is fate resisted.

Balloon Pops / Time Stops
Art is the voice of one's eye."

"PS: Take an (o) from good and what-d'you-got, it's God for short and it's He I sought.
may now begin anew / may forever be as true
Time is just perfect but we just don't have enough of it.
I don't care what anybody thinks but only care that they do.
Wasted time is more productive than wasting time."
~Peat
PSS: Here is my very first poem.
Read it.... / while I weep.

Answers from God - 4/29/2013
God, when asked if he liked being feared replied that He did not, so I said revered is much better then, kinda like being praised instead of worshipped? He said that was correct. Then I asked why He hasn't done away with Satan and He replied, then you wouldn't have anybody to fear. Fear Satan, praise and revere Me and my Son Lord Jesus Christ, that way you will seek us out in fear for the salvation of you're soul, but you must come to us you know. I'm baffled I replied and He said that perhaps if I'd read the Bible I'd better understand.
He also implied that planet Earth is His own little oasis and also mentioned that cursing was not a sin just a lack of a good vocabulary although taking His name in vain was a sin and that exaggerating was the same as lying.
I do have one little prayer that I say often but it must be said out loud. Praise, praise, praise, God save the Queen and thank you Lord Jesus Christ, amen.. I hope He approves and I believe He does as He came to me.. There is believing and there is knowing, I am now a knower..
It's ok to go out on a limb, as long as it's alive, I believe. ~Peat
God, when asked what happens when the carrot is gone replied: God's Word is like a golden carrot that will never be fully consumed.
Don't be shocked, the Holy Spirit is electric, get connected today, amen.
