Rosarium cum Apolline


















Rosarium cum Apolline

 

In the stillness of peace where life doth swell,

Our Lady sits quietly and Christ doth compel,

The two they draw near, to the Sacred Heart here,

For Holy Benediction, where the worship’s sincere.

 

The reciting of prayers that gently process,

The each to the other doth silently bless.

The prayers of the Rosary so carefully spoken,

Unsure in the darkness of what is awoken.

 

The intimacy of God revealed in the prayers,

Exposing the hearts of the unworthy sayers.

Joined as one as the devotion recited,

In those brief moments all is requited.

An ode to Apollo












An ode to Apollo

 

I have taken for myself a new muse,

Of whom I shall ponder his many virtues.

His wonderful laugh and his mighty fine ass,

His gentle, warm nature cannot be surpassed.

He is gracious and kind, strong and defined,

Masculine, and very refined.

 

He struts with such power that can only be found,

Where honour and valiance eternally abound.

He makes Fionn and Cuchulainn look like puny wee  boys,

When he turns on his heel and smiles with such poise.

His hand on his jacket as he holds the lapel,

Such sins from a lady could such actions impel. 

The seat of his jacket as it glides just across…

Oh dear now my thinking is all at a loss!

 

When Heaven they made him and sorted his bones,

His organs and sinews and neat muscle tone,

They placed them together in perfection for God

To breathe in his nostrils a soul we’d applaud.

From the page of a book of legend and myth,

He surges forth with the prick of birth’s trick.

To wander among the fields of man’s end,

To the grey, speckled lake did God choose him to send. 

Anchored to there, through the world he did seek,

The lessons in life that make him so sweet.

 

The world is an oyster and he is the pearl,

He is the diamond dreamt by many a girl.

His power and his humanity, his charm and his grace,

The beauty within is shown on his face.

He wears it with style and such quietude,

A mere glance at his soul evokes gratitude.

His chivalrous manners awaken the soul,

And brings you to God, to ever extol.

 

He brings you to praying like never before,

To kneel before God, to ever Adore.

To pray to Our Lady, our Mother Above,

With such care and devotion and abounding love.

No legend, no myth, nor his mighty fine hips,

Can ever his sanctity, ever eclipse.

Apollo of the Loch












Apollo of the Loch

 

Michelangelo’s David hasn’t a patch on his arse,

The Vitruvian Man is only a farce!

He struts to a tempo that makes my heart beat,

I’m bowled by the pheromones he always secretes.

He has rhythm of soul that makes his eyes dance,

He can paralyse time in the flash of a glance.

A cool Mr. Bond would need Matt Damon and Thor,

A young Kevin Costner, and still demand more.

The cut and the angle of such a fine gent,

No words could be found for such praise to dispense.

In Memoriam

















In Memoriam 

 

Love is seventy-three years of no boss,

Love is embracing the heartbreaking loss.

Love is the one final kiss on the forehead,

Love is retaining the heart of a newlywed. 

Love is taking the cortege past the house where she lived when they first met,

Love is ensuring the praying of every single prayer that ancient tradition set.

Love is not worrying about the spending of the pennies,

Love is putting her into the ground looking like a lady.

Love is planning the perfect funeral,

Love is knowing that this is all but temporal.

Love is knowing the ever-after is more than mere belief,

Love is accepting the price to be paid is grief.
