11 DECEMBER
Saturday 11 December 2021.
Maurice's birthday.
He turns 34 today.
He is well and he is happy and he is flying in relation to his career -- thank God.
25
I had great ambitions
To be settled down (with a permanent girlfriend)
By the age of 25
But life had other plans.
A BITTY SURFACE
It is a bitty surface coming up Fruithill
Into the place known as the townland of Kilnafrehan Middle.
It is a shoddy surface. You would be fighting tooth and nail,
Hammer and tongs, hell for leather, ascending this awfully steep hill.
A BLUEPRINT FOR JULY
July 2023 is upon us (enter the second half of the year).
I have big plans for July.
I will avoid the movers and the shakers in the local area
And swaddle myself in the love of Our Lady and in Her colour blue (this is my blueprint).
A CIGARETTE OUT THE BEDROOM WINDOW
A cigarette out the bedroom window
At night-time on the hill:
Headlights flash in the darkness,
Memories twist in the rain.
A DECENT MIX
Three decent songs I was just listening to:
Boston - More Than A Feeling;
Kelly Clarkson - Since U Been Gone;
Rainbow - Since You Been Gone (similar titles!).
Three moving rock songs
Which I am fortunate enough to have in my iTunes (God be greatly praised).
A FINE ROMANCE
This is a fix which you have got me into!
By not coming to my arms or Knott.
Won't you come quickly, even so,
And we can set up a loving situation and instigate a fine romance.
A GOOD HEART
I believe in God and in his power
And I believe I have a good heart
And haply
There's a connexion between the two.
A HUMBLE PRAYER
In a foreign land they are tethering horses within the precincts of the sacred churches.
May the rain that falls in that distant land end up in the ancient holy water font.
No snowflake ever lands in the wrong place! Therefore I humbly pray from my comfortable seat
That the snow may lie on the altar like an unadulterated sheet; like a holy altar cloth.
ADVENT OF RADIO
I love the radio.
I think it is a great invention.
I like television and yet,
Well, I prefer that glorious radio.
I was worried about some of the sh--
That was coming out on it for a while.
Oh, many nights since 1980
Were "slipped away into the eiderdown"
As I fell asleep in the arms of
BBC Radio One.
AFTER
I am after going to the shop. In Ireland
This is the way we say I have gone or been to the shop.
It comes from the Irish "Tá mé tar éis dul go dtí an siopa".
Tá mé tar éis mo dhinnéar a ithe. I am after eating my dinner:
AIN'T NO LONGER ASKING FOR CHANGE
Ain't no longer asking for change.
I'm not gonna change anyway.
Push for change.
Life begins now.
ALICIA KEYS
I think Alicia Keys is a good singer.
I have a picture of her in my room.
She is a very attractive lady.
I like her musical style.
BLONDIE
Best band in the world.
Blondie from NJ, USA.
Deborah Harry lead vocalist.
She's a lady.
BLU-TACK
I invested in a packet of Blu-Tack.
It keeps cables, ornaments, etc. locked down and secure.
I am delighted with this Blu-Tack and I think
It is a great invention.
BLUEBELL
Bluebell is a cow I see in the field every day,
Passing in the car up and down the hill;
She is a lovely person and
A cute little thing.
BON JOVI
Bon Jovi are one of the greatest rock bands.
They are from NJ, USA.
The lead singer is Jon Bon Jovi (1962-).
They can be described as hard rock or arena rock.
The band sing powerful and brilliant songs such as
"Someday I'll Be Saturday Night"; "Keep The Faith"; "Livin' On A Prayer".
BONANZA EXTRAVAGANZA
I'd like to thank my Father and Friend the Lord God Almighty
For all of the beautiful things that he has given me.
He has given me many beautiful gifts
Including the gift of his love.
BOTH ENDS BURNING
The Lord provides.
Nevertheless I am beset by various problems,
It isn't really anybody's fault.
However, I am confident that the Lord will always provide.
BOUNTIFUL MERCY
The Lord is a generous and loving God of clemency.
He shelters me when things aren't working out
And one fine day he is going to lead me on the paths of glory
To the beauteous harbour of his heavenly kingdom where I will live happy forever and ever.
BRIAN AND LANCE
There are two owls hanging on my wall.
Brian is nobler than Lance
Because Lance suffers from a kind of lofty exuberance.
But they are both nice people.
DANCING IN THE DARK
"Dancing In The Dark" is a great song by Bruce Springsteen.
It is a 1984 single and it is brilliant.
I think it is one of his best songs.
Bruce Springsteen is great.
DIRECT TRANSPOSAL
A being of Light
Harried ;(
And rent amok
By a lying dog.
DON'T
Don't say that to me again, you mendacious horned btch.
ERASURE
Lost (broke, unfortunately) a CD.
Erasmus smashed many.
Iconoclasm bangs negatively.
Gradual removal.
FOR HARRY
How I love you, Mr Goodchild.
The Lord Harry Goodchild is a god in heaven.
He is my brother as well as Evan's favourite brother.
Evan and Harry are like fingers intertwined (cannot be separated).
FOR THE LORD O'REILLY
Edwin O'Reilly is the aggregate of every god in heaven.
I have known "Dad" since 23 December 2023 -- he is one of my heavenly Fathers.
He has a keen sense of humour.
He is a great guy.
FOR THE SOUR GORDON
Leave me alone.
It is all your fault.
What is.
What is, now.
FREYA AND AOIFE
Freya is Aoife's Mother.
Freya Godwin and Aoife Dreamstone are two heavenly goddesses.
They are two beautiful ladies.
I love Freya and Aoife very much.

He loved Jesus and his music
And he was a little sweet.
He suffered in his time
But he is happy now.
Harry protects me
Like a lofty star shining.
HASKY
Sunday morning coming down.
Doesn't it every day. There is something wrong with the sky.
It is infected with supernatural ugliness.
Btchsky I call it. I don't mean to be rude. Hasky I call it.
HEAVEN'S QUEEN
I wish to sing of the love I have in my heart for Heaven's Queen.
She is the sweetest person we know -- Zàrä aka Mary. She is beautifully sweet.
Our Lady will be my best friend in heaven and I mean all friends, all people, God, men, women, everyone. She is top of the friendship list.
I have known my Mother in this way since 2014 and She has worked miracle after miracle.
I AM REALLY HAPPY
I am really well.
I am doing well in my Christian walk.
I have friends who respect me
And the love of my Mother.

I love him very much.
We get on well.
He has a successful career, thankfully.
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU, REBECCA
Dear Friend Rebecca. I do be up and down.
In and out of love with the coffee, sadly!
Don't worry be happy etc. You can do no wrong.
Not that good. Not that bad. No psycho killer!
Now, Rebecca, let me inform you
That I am here for you always as friend and a very good one too.
I WONDER
I wonder if
In the dreamtime tonight
(To the feathered ounce)
I will have the same dreams
(The same weight, the same colour)
As I felt last night in the dreamtime.
J.
Your voice across the line
Gives me a strength injection.
For the Lady Harry
And her brilliant band Blondie.

There are four angels overhead.
She is well protected
By the love of the Lord God Almighty.

He is a black man.
I have known Montague since 15 April 2022.
He is, like everyone in heaven, an artist -- I must find a picture for my homepage.

Lynn (not her real name) is a girl I met on Skype in September 2007.
She is a lovely person
And we became very good friends.
She married so we drifted apart.
MAGIC TOUCH
My Mother has that magic touch.
I love Her so.
She is a very special lady
And we get on well.
MERCY LITANY
Gary Lightbody is the lead vocalist of Snow Patrol.
Snow Patrol are an Irish rock band.
They sing "Run" and "Wow"
And the beautiful "You're All I Have"..
POEM FOR MY BELOVED
If you lie to me again
I'll be the one that walks away.
So oft
Hast thou promisèd.
I will never leave you nor forsake you.
Try to see it my way
(Do I have to keep on talking)
I can't go on. I'll go on.
REBS
I love Rebecca Alexander-Thompson.
Rebs Edwin's wife.
She is a lovely goddess and I have known this lady since 23 December 2023.
Rebecca is a very good friend to have.
SIMPLE KID
Simply red.
Sing for joy.
Sleeper.
Sixpence none the richer.
SLIP
I had one drink on Friday.
I only drink one unit every 9m.
My Father accused me of drinking.
Purported calls were sent from the township.
SUBUNIFICATION
I don't like identificatory policies.
It isn't subunification, now,
But I have my own political ideals (slán)
And mind your own for now.
THANK YOU, LISA
Thanks, Lisa, for befriending me.
Thank you for supporting and protecting me.
I love you very much.
I was confronted with a low-level Canute
And then Someone Special came my way and said This is Jesus.
To quote from a song You're so great and I love you.
THE DEMONS
The demons (God's fallen angels) are nice people.
I like them and I really really like the female demons.
They made a mistake before the Eternal Father and they are sorry now
And thankfully they will be going home and then these "lovely" people will be really happy.
THE IMITATION OF CHRIST
The Imitation of Christ by Father Thomas À Kempis is a great book.
I used read it every morn around 2020.
I had a copy on my computer.
It is uplifting.
THE LADY LYNDA
Lynda Morrissey is a beautiful goddess in heaven.
I like that name -- Lynda.
She is a lovely wholesome person
Like all of the other goddesses.
THE LITTLE FLOWER
The Little Flower is really my bountiful Mother Mary
And there are images of Her around the house
And looking at Her brings me closer to Jesus
As well as to Herself the Munificent Goddess and to God.
THE ONENESS OF THE JOURNEY
The common voyage
Or uncommon as shared of
The million billion idea
Has me going (something got me started).
THOMAS
Thomas Fairweather is my favourite
Heavenly brother.
He is gentle
And he is a great guy.
TO MY BROTHER THOMAS
I'm sorry for letting you down,
Thomas,
Sweetie.
I hope you're getting on okay.
UNIVERSAL SALVATION
Everyone is going to heaven (thankfully!).
I believe in the Rapture at the acceptable time.
There is no hell. It is a silly fairytale.
Even the devil can go home should he show remorse.
WAIT
You must be stronger than the story.
All of us must keep putting one foot in front of the other.
Wait for the obstacles certains have lined up for us.
When we overcome there will be many rewards.
WATTSVILLE BLUES
Noises from above.
Wattsville blues.
They are coming to get me.
I am the warrior and victory is mine.
WELL DONE
Some people are intensely critical.
I don't like vindictiveness -- I find it cheap and nasty.
Well done, my brother from heaven,
For having mercy on the poor and needy.
WHAT DO I DO NOW
What do I do now
That my favourite films Indiana Jones won't play
Because my video software
Is on a perpetual stall.
WOULD YOU
Would you abuse a sentient being.
Would you lie to them
And build them up to cut them down again.
Mind who you choose to elect.
More poems will be added soon. ;)
