Sonnet XXV
__________________________
As in the midst of battle there is room
For thoughts of love, and in foul sin for mirth;
As gossips whisper of a trinket’s worth
Spied by the death-bed’s flickering candle-gloom;
As in the crevices of Caesar’s tomb
The sweet herbs flourish on a little earth:
So in this great disaster of our birth
We can be happy, and forget our doom.
For morning, with a ray of tenderest joy
Gilding the iron heaven, hides the truth,
And evening gently woos us to employ
Our grief in idle catches. Such is youth;
Till from that summer’s trance we wake, to find
Despair before us, vanity behind.
Emily's Approach To Letter Writing
Emily's Approach To Letter Writing
To my readers;
When I use the gift of prophecy, I write in a formal structure such as a poem, or a sonnet, which is then edited and perfected for publication in a formalized and copyrighted book. When I wish to communicate with someone, I use what's called versification. If this has gained me somewhat of a reputation as a monarch's poet to the Throne Seat it is because people should be a little more afeared of writers, and what they may publish. One should be a little more afraid of the gift of kindness
One would hate to have their contrasting colours exemplified in the public arena in the form of ducks or geese. But a poet and writer has no other way to take a stand for what they believe, to have a voice of redemption. A poet makes use of these threads to eke out a living, and may be poor. So you can hardly blame them.
I just try to be fair to journalists; they are far more published than I. When I want to say something of meaning to my readers, I usually have to wait months if not years for it to come out in print with the possibility of making a few dimes in darkness. I am lighting and selling a few matches to keep me warm, with little payment in return for my momentary illumination of the sacred.
So go back with me a few years, to when poetry was an art and worth more to the populace. Speak with me in the language of Kings, Queens, and masters of mystery and intrigue. You may notice I rarely speak to any royalty or famous people directly, I am known as the "sticky note prophet" because I simply paste sticky notes where I think they should begin reading. . . I have learned to be assertive in my endeavors, and led by the spirit.
As for my fellow writers: You will find your voice if you write forever, and do not care to publish. Write for your own catharsis, and your journal will be kept private. Do not ever admire anyone who has to be perfect in order to meet the world's standard. It is gut-wrenching.
Sincerely,
Writer and poet
Emily Isaacson

AGELESS
AGELESS
David walking in the garden,
the morning sun his illumination,
taking all he professes
as the keys to the gate of love:
his is a steady gaze to Abigail.
We must pass through Old Jerusalem
to find what is eternal,
to sing eternity of the olive tree, a psalm.
The copper key opens the bronze gate.
The horses in the stables of David are seven hundred,
and the thunder of their hooves
repeats upon the desert.
Where am I, standing in the sand of time,
that I might drink of the waters
of your leafy oasis;
in a palace of stone ramparts
my soul runs dry
while your compatriots pour
the wine.
Thus my sacred certainty
of the next life: paradisal doves
rose into the sky, taking to docile flight,
swimming across the blue—
that this righteousness
could not be traded for fine silver.
--Emily Isaacson ( 2017, O Canada )

A prophecy from Queen Abigail: the book Ageless
I will give you the treasures of darkness, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the LORD, the God of Israel, who summons you by name. Isaiah 45.3

Jerusalem, 985 BC
Queen Abigail is one of the seven prophetesses of Israel, and has agreed to revive the hearts of the spiritually hungry. There are in Jerusalem, a suffering and emaciated people, desperate for spiritual food. She alone can compose the oracle. Will her poetry be the key to the Gate of David?

Could we not repent and our tears soak from

What is a Wild Lily?
What is a Wild Lily?
Emily Carr wrote in her books about the fields of wild lilies in early British Columbia. If you are wondering what a wild lily is, well it refers in this case to any earth-bound lily in contrast to the gilded lily or fleur-de-lis.
Poetry Quote
Butterfly Tears
I once said I love you
and that love remains;
constant through years,
the blood in my veins.
I never will leave you,
be I poor or of wealth,
as the sun crosses the sky,
without guile, without stealth.
And though the ashes remain of our years,
they are sacred because of our butterfly tears.
--Emily Isaacson

Toward the replanting of a land—
once deserted, cold, and barren, still;
now citrus, and the olive, myrtle stand,
our pride in the distance, through the hills
spilling fine perfume and virgin oil.
Early songs still rise from temple mount
amid the prayers, centuries old toil.
--Emily Isaacson, The Replanting
House of Rain
The spiritual way ruins the body and, having ruined it,
restores it to prosperity:
Ruined the house for the sake of the golden treasure, and
with that same treasure builds it better than before;
Cut off the water and cleansed the river-bed, then
caused the drinking water to flow in it;
Cleft the skin and drew out the barb, then made fresh
skin grow over the wound;
Razed the fortress and took from it the infidel, then
reared thereon a hundred towers and ramparts.
