Xavier Paolo Josh Ledesma Mandreza Poems

Whereupon the Sun's Blessed Rays reveal
Such Heavenly Countenance with this Cloth
And your Living Knight does offer his Shield
Which, declared Publicly, secured you Both
...

How can I see you yet never go Blind
As Tradition and Heart seek to acclaim?
I carry no Surveys; But keep in mind
A Friend such as you has naught to explain
...

Haply but Sweetly, Serene Volumes mix
And Summer's Fornication took its toll
Please don't React. I am not here to fix
Those very Clouds you hard-worked to install
...

When his Gillette slices the Cake you give
And your Ribbon shows what a Prune he was
It's time to kick his Sorry Bum and Live
Then realise he is below your Class
...

It was one of those cool, breesy afternoons which blanketed the Crossway, a land-bridge connecting Plymouth to the West Cities such as Torbay and Cornwall.
...

Begging you, Sterling Mentor of the Card
Patient and Calm are your Methods in-check
May I take this Learner to Living afar
Bespoke my Efforts and Services are met
...

With Swollen Tears did my Countrymen commit
In week's Soliloquy request for Aid
And Soul's own Moments whose Sympathy permit
Whilst Sheltered Families pray for more space
...

The Will-of-Strength, firm and subtle at Peak
Sought to follow his Elder and charge his Day
With Weight-Lifts and Fork-Bells conquer Relief
Took a Sling from his Semi; Shot the Green Elf
...

Best Wishes to such Grazing Actor be
Whose Courage chose to meet me on this Earth
I never thought that such Divinity
Would see me as what I am really Worth
...

The Heart-of-Promise, filled on his Wanton Day
Sorted the Journal to fix his Dates ahead
But the Noise down below would get in his Way
To record this Occasion; And the Dread
...
