Justice!? (One view)

 
---And "Justice" for All...?
 
 
Like morning dew or tropical jungle mist,
"Justice" exists! Perpetually floating---eternally! 
Eager to dispense its final judgement, one vacant of
judicial appeal skewed by dubious human interjection.
 
"Bah! Humbug!" Hmm! Really? So---you...say!?
 
"Hate" is a self-defeating concern devouring the
"Un-just" host like a run-rampant rogue cancer.
Such harbored resentment-anger focuses speech on
the perceived "evil" afflicting the supposed victim.
 
Whatever the concluded pernicious evil atrocity,
hating the chosen "cause" does absolutely nothing
to positively affect the scenario; it only further festers.
 
When life graciously smiles "Good fortune" on any
one of us sorely lacking and wanting "Human flesh
and blood" experiments, who among the creatures does
not take the bows claiming "genius" accolades?
Not many! A most precious humble few. Perhaps? 
 
When "fickle-fate" defeats our creative endeavors, or,
worse, God forbid, it is always somebody else's fault.
 
Demon-will can, and, does, triumph in this world.
Reap what ye sow! Proclaims the sacred gospel;
man is sinful by his very nature; consequences exist!
 
So? Do we "just let it go? Allow damnable-evil go un-punished.
 
The truth to that query is: Retribution "is not" up to us.
 
Justice rules. It exists. It levels the end tally.
 
But---but...They got away with it! Did they? Indeed?
 
Though we do not, sometimes, cannot, see the value
Justice-virtue extends, such exists and is truly there.
Often our insult leads to such focused "Hate" that
we simply wallow in the vacant and empty desire
to "Right" the world on our own selfish terms. Such
arrogance is not within the purview of insignificant man.
 
"God" created man giving us equal opportunity; any
decided wish to have it our way---is...blaspheme!
We are not God! It is not---our world! Outcome is
random beyond our expectation or desire. If one is
incapable of grasping Truth, then go ahead, "Try it"!
 
Justice triumphs---eternally! But---it is not...our own to do.
 
Faith! Family! Freedom! Live it! Love it! Try it! Trust it!
Help thyself as best thee may truly endeavor.
Through such noble exercise is Justice! attained. 
 
Amen!

4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - Jump!

 
Avalon Stables---Fantastic!
 
 
Monday evening riding lessons for
granddaughters Lauren and Anna Marie
with fabulous instructor Miss Lei  and
Lexi with Miss "Hawaii"-Carrie allow
tremendous entertainment for the loyal
spectators, "Professional" instructions
for the equestrian riders in a "spiritual"
atmosphere---such "reverence" and "Love"!
 
Avalon embodies all that is Good in a
"Christian" setting through the Silver Springs
Pony Club members and supportive families who 
practice a myriad of religious beliefs from none
to main-stream and any and all between, each
completely tolerant of any other; such display is
pleasantly satisfying, spiritually satiating and
soul-refreshing; an awe-inspiring experience.
 
Today we explored counting strides before the jump.
 
Sounds pretty "simple"!? Try it from astride horseback!
 
These "young lady" members truly deserve: Lady!
And, the male-roster consists of fine Gentlemen!   
Accomplished riders; honored leaders; the Best people!
 
Avalon embodies what every home offers:
Safe harbor, "family", friends---and...Love!
 
Simple! Humble! Kind! Gracious! Generous!
 
No one ever too busy to lend a helping hand,
offer a word of encouragement, spread a smile.
Each available to aid anyone in any need! Amen!
 
What a very fine venue of excellent-valued intent and purpose!
 
"Thank you!" for allowing us to join in the experience.
We love the horses, Avalon Stables---and...each of you all.
 
So---as to "counting" strides...4 - 3 - 2  - 1 - Jump!

Lei says the "professionals" count as many strides as "7"!
 
Yeah! Sure! I can do that!? It's just that---Well!...
Could we use some "easier" numbers? And,
maybe not quite so many? At least---for me?
(Hey! I can count to---10...1, 7, 4, "l-m-n-o-p", 10!)
Yea!!!
 
Thank you! One and all, each and everyone!

God bless you! Silver Springs Pony Club and Avalon!


Amen!

Memorial Day!

 
American "Heroes'!
 
 
Proudly: Honor "real" hero fellow Americans
who pledged "All-in!" and paid the ultimate.
 
Simply, and, humbly: : Thank you! Amen!
 
Each holiday celebrated by Americans is
a sacred, honorable attestation to this greatest
country; Every day is that celebration.
 
This designated American gratitude is specifically
in honor of the "war-dead" for Liberty and Freedom!
Amen!
 
My friend "Bobby" drew his final breath far from home.
S-A-L-U-T-E! My honorable friend---still...and, forever!
 
We sure had some times; "Thanks" for the memories!
And, for your ultimate sacrifice; you did "Good!" Bobby!

S. Sgt. Robert Franklin Holden

R.I.P. Mon Amie!

Pride! Display it! Celebrate it! Cherish it!

God bless the U.S.A.
 
Happy Memorial Day!
 
Amen!

What---"good"!? "Any"...Good!?

 
"Hmmm!?"
 
 
Yeah! It is Sunday, once more!
Wow! Comes around once a week. Hmm!
 
If you have indulged my writings previously,
then you will recognize my proud display
upon my "humble" gonfalon a triangular red
banner emblazoned in block white letters a
confession of a life-long mantra exhibition,
metaphorically, at least, the staff presentation:
 
Faith! Family! Freedom!
 
Within, yet, far above the effort to honor that
sacred life-"goal" satiating this humble spirit
through honest intent for precise-purpose is
the most very profound "Treasure-pleasure"---
of my time in space and love...my perfect family!
 
Approaching seven decades seemingly at the
awesome speed-of-light reveals a nearly blank
report of any purported resume (save, of course, that
spectacular "family" afore mentioned). Hmm!?
 
One bright spot, minute, to be sure, 10,000+ trees!
 
Not so much in the relevant scheme of things!?
Yet, for "simple"-me, a (I pray) worthy accomplishment.
 
Now, I learn that even a singular expression is
questioned as dubious of "good"; maybe even---racist!
 
It seems some "unknown" civil-servant employed by
"We the people" in our Department of the Interior is
advocating cutting down all tress in National Parks
because African-Americans do not visit our parks
precisely because of (my) beloved trees growing
there because the "evil" reminds the former slaves
(none of whom were!?) of past unjust history! WOW!
 
Honest! An oath: I did not know the implication!

Disclosure: I have never owned any slaves nor
have I ever entertained any desire to do so.
My intention was to express my deep love of
Mother Nature with respect and honor never
suspecting some creative-thinking by an erudite,
sophisticated Royal-elite "hater" might perniciously
obfuscate what had been a sacred commission.
 
In conscience? Am I now obliged to correct my transgression?
 
Planting them required quite a pointed effort. Sorry!
But, really, I may not have time to rectify my "error".
 
So? What to do! What to do? Oh! Me! Oh! My!
 
Oh! Children! Grandchildren! I truly am---"Sorry!"
 
"Up" is "down"; "left" is "right"; "right" is "wrong";
and---I, personally, am...Confused and Lost!
 
But, It is---Sunday!
 
Not being a "P-C" hypocrite,
and refusing to participate in 
 racist-hatred and, ignorance,
I think I'll celebrate my
Independent-Individualism---
and, plant more...trees!
Because I love nature and---honor...God!

If my conclusion is "wrong"? Please! Excuse me!
 
I may even have to refine my sacred mantra to:
Faith! Family! Freedom! and Forests!

Hmmm!? Indeed! Hmmm!
 
Amen!

Secrets?! Complications!? Simple conclusions!?

 
Answers!?
 
 
A "vacant" pursuit!?
 
A "useless" hunt!?
 
An "empty" effort!?
 
 
Always "looking" for---trouble will
undoubtedly...manifest some "demon"-evil!
 
One need not concern one's self searching;
the sought "issue" shall, indeed, surface.
 
The Who? What? Where? When? How? Why?
of exactly whom one is concludes by the explicit
exercise of How? one handles direct adversity!
 
Choose decisions most carefully employing
with "intent" any, or all, or combinations of
sacred-"Trinity" of the following purposes 
resulting in positive, adequate resolution:
 
Faith! Family! Freedom!
Hope! Charity! Commitment!
Life! Love! Laugh!
Father! Son! Holy Ghost!
Peace! Contentment! Pleasure!
Confession! Redemption! Salvation!
Good! Better! Best!

Why?  That elusive "ultimate": Truth!!!
 
From: Nowhere! To: Now here! To: Nowhere!
(Dr. Wayne Dyer---(R.I.P.)
 
Then!? To wit:
 
In the "end" is found a surprise "new beginning"!
 
Amen!

Excerpt from "Station Master" by Carl Schuler (Amazon books)


Alabaster-pale Full Moon Refrain!

 

Alabaster-pale full moon bright

Creating shadows grey and white

Blends surreal sweetness in delight

 

Image in old looking glass reflects time-traveled horizon-trace afar

Yet! Amazing site to  tired eyes, more beautiful than ever, still thou are

 

Instants, days, on into years, in lightning flash it’s all just soon been

To count the dead, to fear the next, to miss the now, commits dire sin

 

Once infant crawled, unsteady walked, ran like a fresh, sailed fair wind

Too quickly surf kissed sandy beach, found passing time not be dear friend

 

Alabaster-pale full moon bright    

Creating shadows grey and white

Blends surreal sweetness in delight

 

Fulfill dear nature-mother’s way---Always! Thy kingdom come!

Blatant-subtle instant-eon, each day-long most treasured awesome

 

Alabaster-pale full moon bright

Creating shadows grey and white

Blends surreal sweetness in delight

 

Spring Beauty-virgin Sweetness-maiden caresses dawn softly the east

Adonis-handsome tender embrace locked-hearts in lasting loving-feast

 

Southern statue subtle slowly slips on sojourn wind, nearly a silent whisper

Spawned summer storms begot of futile search for just one tempting mister

 

 

Placid western monument imperceptibly has paid pained-dues

Lake color bright kaleidoscope reflects Autumnal splendor hues

 

Sculpted marble icy-cold purviews spouse handiwork now frozen frigid

Daguerreotype slight shadowed black on white hints softly contrast rigid

 

Alabaster-pale full moon bright

Creating shadows grey and white

Blends surreal sweetness in delight

 

All transfixed quietness even in exploded temper ’ere nature goes

Each combination different, yet still same, in gentle ebb and flow

 

Offered there true love gone holding hands in heaven’s garden upon His earth

Live statues bathed in alabaster-white refrain to value-virtue sweet pure worth

 

Alabaster-pale full moon bright

Creating shadows grey and white

Blends surreal sweetness in delight

 

Lazy “∞” upon yon dream-bed to symbolize that one forever infinity

Body life? A soul. Its own? Spirit true. Replete, to emulate divinity

 

Alabaster-pale full moon light confesses not an illuminated single solitary faux sorrow

Faith! Family! Freedom! Trinity---hope born new dawn upon the promised ’morrow

 

Alabaster-pale full moon bright

Creating shadows grey and white

Blends surreal sweetness in delight

Shadowed Graces wraithlike-night

Passionate reality, purchase-tight

Upon soft wind sacred Deity sight

Touch yonder sky to mountain height

“V”-wedge geese in migrant flight

A sin? To miss…true life! It might!

 

Amen!

"We the people..."

 
“We…?”
 
Paradise created, bequeathed, bestowed, promised on condition
Evil serpent Knowledge Tree then piqued cool Eve suspicion
 
Soon Cain slew Abel in saddened evolution stain
Set course through time, found Revolution refrain
 
Stands men tall among the many in Declaration resolution
Firm foundation built on reverent word-exacted Constitution
Together imaged Cross of Christ in national collective absolution
Invites the world with beacon gold to mankind found solution
God-given rights, all others earned with honest contribution
While precepts constant hold fast true in culture evolution
 
Rag-tag farmers followed General silhouette into boat
Greatest nation ever born survives on Constitution float
 
Two-thirds of a million bled-out boys sustained that hope
Miracle survived, recovered, arose, learned with respect to cope
 
Sacrificed hero-belief in blessed Freedom rescued kin-European “friend”
Mere decades, two, hence spilled sons’ life blood on old same earth again
 
Six hero boys, red, white and blue emblazoned blood unfurled
Slayed evil obfuscated mean twin world-winds faux un-swirled
 
Stands men tall among the many in Declaration resolution
Firm foundation built on reverent word-exacted Constitution
Together imaged Cross of Christ in national collective absolution
Invites the world with beacon gold to mankind found solution
God-given rights, all others earned with honest contribution
While precepts constant hold fast true in culture evolution
 
Three piece faceless empty silk suits believe pernicious self-serving press
“We, the people…” hold simple reverent truth, together fix the horrid mess
 
Hot screaming bullets cooled to intellectual stalemate threatened cold war
“If you dare ‘Fire one!...’” haughty liar bluster loosed the killer missile roar
 
Bored mankind survived M.A.D. politicos practiced-honed insanity
Can’t understand hindsight-history devoid illuminated perspicacity
 
“We, the people…” unseeing half list abject left in despicable sight
Not quite the rest of necessity trending un-sophisticated mediocre right
 
Suave, debonair, brain-dead connoisseur, mouth-proper erudite conditioned talk
Inside the law by executing its change in Constitution-stupid Captain “Bounty” walk
 
Self-effacing heroes true never believe for once they are
In humble ideology tempered value-virtue reach heaven far
 
Stands men tall among the many in Declaration resolution
Firm foundation built on reverent word-exacted Constitution
Together imaged Cross of Christ in national collective absolution
Invites the world with beacon gold to mankind found solution
God-given rights, all others earned with honest contribution
While precepts constant hold fast true in culture evolution
 
That self-appointed ruling elite-“classless” know full awfully well
“We, the people…” power might just choose release pure fire-hell
 
Keep royal head down, slack mouth shut, Gucci tied, Oh! Politico! So huge
Lest careless display insufficient I.Q. reveal rabid Straw-dog idiot stooge!
 
Wish I may! Wish I might! Awake sacred meaning Constitution
Live holy life in joyous celebration of His miraculous resolution
Cerulean abyss stiletto-studded cotton touch soft red, white, blue
Display proud waves: Faith! Family! Freedom! Adored anew
 
Reverent Christ-intelligence prescribed Declaration perfect told
Respect uphold Article-Section-Amendment U.S Paper uphold bold
 
On golden staff color gonfalon shines blinding shining light
Independent American individual earth-heaven smiling bright
 
Faith! Family! Freedom! Might just be all there really---is
In eternal instant the only counted judgment will be…His!
Amen!
 
Stands men tall among the many in Declaration resolution
Firm foundation built on reverent word-exacted Constitution
Together imaged Cross of Christ in national collective absolution
Invites the world with beacon gold to mankind found solution
God-given rights, all others earned with honest contribution
While precepts constant hold fast true in culture evolution
 
God-good men! Forward! Take full charge! Procrastinate not at the station!
Angels rejoice! In the end, the saintly win! Proclaims His holy Revelation!
 
Amen! To that! And---Amen!...again. Amen! Amen! Amen!
 


Saturday, May 21, 2016

Sunday---again...Amen!

 
What a week! Yeah!
 
 
Lauren and Anna Marie enjoyed K.C.
 
Lexi played "great" ball with three games.
 
And, Z. Tyler won all the marbles:
 
1) A new job! Yea!
2) Sold his loft---and...moved!
3) Left for Cancun! Now---On the beach!
 
Lovely Lady Candice and "simple"-me?
 
We observed, participated---and...Enjoyed,
fully Living, Loving and Laughing the Adventure!
 
 
Thank You! Lord!
 
For the event-opportunity! Again!
 
Amen!

Excerpt from "And Justice for All" novel by Carl Schuler (Amazon books)

Part III
 
 
In That Final Parting Sweetness, Sorrow Surely Stings!
 
 
Army days! Soldier nights! The Agony of Evil Death!
 
Could I but only Speak once more to Thee, Sweet Love, Dear Memory
 
 
Seems an odd sojourn through miles, oft  years, only to return where I begun
Breathe relaxed breath afore that final note of a young life song’s been sung


Thursday, May 19, 2016

Transgression Choice

Demon Deceit/ Divine Delight
 
“Worship me! I’ll make Thee king!” Evil faux-tempted
“Be gone!” Holy One commanded, no demon exempted
 
Long forty days in vacant desert prayed and fasted
Disciples twelve blissful slept, a vigil short-lasted
 
Upon yon mountain Satan raged false-promise gives
Dawn, noon, twilight, night: God’s Mother Nature lives
 
Savor quick first life-breath demands two certainties-do bring it
Temptation strife and final whine, women, song dare sing it
 
Red polished apple bright-lie Eve just had to taste it
Venom-filled, defiled her man, Paradise debased it
 
Fragranced perfume, halo gold beautiful- just way too cute
Tanned-brawn masculine dons red tie adorns dark suit
 
Stroll coiffured Garden filled Spirit-good pure-soul care
Traverse allotted time aware trouble, toil, disguised snare
 
Lifetime through sacred search for holy knowledge spent
Secret selfless reach spread love abound with arrow sent
 
May come a time enlightening-bolt force errant ego to cage
Celestial answers bold-said Genesis through Revelation page
 
Pray I find perfect life like earth below majestic eagle’s eye
Heaven-caressed in summit-high celestial blue-cerulean sky
 
Live! Love! Laugh! Please! Duly contemplate!
Never has one destined future ever showed late
 
Faith! Family! Freedom! Might just be all there really---is
In one eternal instant the only mercy blessing will be…His!
 
Amen! So be it!
Amen! So it is!
