Premium Member Adding My Rhubarb To the Bowl

There's something going on around here, something special. 
Something's being tossed in the bowl- (sort of speak). Something that to my likes, tastes and smells as good as any cheery pie, apple strudel, or creme filled pastry. I suppose it's in the air, or, in the soup, if I may say. I sense a great deal of trust, honor and friendship. I trust my gut and soul, for it is soothed and full of warmth. I get the feeling that it is not only I that feels this way. Let us continue to reap the rewards together for in which this community so much has to offer. But it is the "love" that embraces my heart every time I read a comment, poem, or story written by my fellow poets and poetesses. Yes indeed, there's something going on around here. Something that's addicting...and I'm addicted!  I promise- to be just another ingredient that adds a little taste to this already very flavorful mixture of sweetness and seasonings from around the globe. Do you think the rain will hurt the rhubarb? "Not if it's in cans" my dad used to say". So, I will continue to add my rhubarb- can or not. 

I hope it appeases you all...

Sincerely,

To accommodate
To be pleased
and satisfied
Charming the begger
who wishes to be
In the passion
of her physical touch
Might she find favor
Beautiful the night
By morning
That by morning
Might she be
Mine
The warmth of
Her body
Prophound and pleasing
watch her
I must watch her
As she might wish
To trick me
We're I will be
Uncertain
Found vail in the
Eyes of those
Who despise me

Premium Member Giving Her Advice On Adding Purple

I wanted to add purple to my garden, she said.
She was lucky to have me, I thought in my head.
What about catmint, hydrangea, or meadow rue?
She looked confused, like she did not know what to do.

There is always lavender, corydalis, alluring allium too.
She took a step back and landed heavily on my shoe.
Spiderwort, mist flower, violet, anise, I suggested to her.
She did not respond fast, so I mentioned lupine, so pure.

How do you know so much about flowers, she asked me.
I don’t know, I guess I have grown up with them naturally. 
Verbena, leading lady plum and bellflower might be the way…
She screamed, turned on her heel, and ran squarely away.

Adding Rhyme To My Free Verse, Cooking Poetic Stew

My thoughts are dark as deep night,
The stinging vine, the wisp of smoke,
The elusive unicorn, freshly killed,
Yet my hopes are dancing upon sunny days
Those memorable and glorious days,
Sunny rays raking proud, tall trees,
Flowing waters washing my tired brain,
Swimming in cool, soft blue seas.
Begging rain to let out its downpour,
Crumbling towers in dark red sand,
Life giving, my always wanting much more,
Applause, applause, for the wondrous band.
Casting myself down old and worn rocky paths,
 
Empty rusty bucket in my left hand,
Scattering of sunset rays upon my back,
Rejecting safe pathways as just too bland
Grabbing storms by their raging, dark tails,
Kissing lightning as skies it then adores,
Empty boat, drifting alone with torn sails,
Seeking lost paradise on mythical shores.

I that write my addiction in poetic verse,
Can not find the strong will to thus quit,
Sometimes this blackness in writing is a curse,
Like frothy blood from my veins dripping out bit by bit!
