Something Afar
Cobwebs hung in dust of stars the moon a cracked pale marble balanced on a razor’s edge Pools of sun rays n midnight bars Phantom voices call me from afar Things seen; springs ring echoes Fade as headlights blaze keen! in the rushing rain, the rusting wind midday at night behind the wheel of a ruin car… like dusted stars, they...

Sonnet for a star
How can I express my thanks from afar? Lately, drove past me, smiling and waving, In such past times, he was my guiding star, Treasuted image of him I am saving. "Sit tight, dear one, you see things to the end," Always I recall what he had to say, Separately, path did onwards wend, I really never know, except to pray. Steadfast,...

ALLOW ME TO LOVE YOU FROM AFAR
allow me to love you from far Our connection transcends fate; it's an unexplainable force. Though it led us to a dead end, I can't let go. I've realized I can never love another like I love you. This love controls me, and I'm powerless against it. Once, I believed you were my destiny. Now, I see that our paths diverge. You...

I Admire You From Afar
If you are the sun Then I am the moon We may be millions of miles apart The stars echo our joy, if only for a short time You are praised for your light I admire you even if I have to hide in darkness You are a tapestry That paints the picture of beauty We may be on opposite ends...

Premium Member A Wink From Afar
soon to bid another farewell, yet, you've already unearthed a smidge of sad longing buried too deep within to excavate. as our sizeable distance kept stretching apart like a rubberband, first came your reassuring smile when you turned your head to look at me one last time, and with that smile - before slipping out of sight - a careful aim directly at...

From Afar
From afar I have witnessed Bonds that are strong Inseparable from one another Together, like the beauty in nature, they belong Like the wind in a summer's breeze Like the voluminous water in the sea Completing each other One in the same - naturally To try to separate would be pointless To try to remove or part would be insane It would be akin to...

Love You From Afar
We often forget those who remain Focused on those whom we love blinded by trumped-up stories of love Intoxicated and bewitched but thumb their noses toward us And don’t appreciate everything we give So cherish those people who remained in your darkest watched you in silence Loved you from afar...

Gifts From Afar
When someone who’s away returns And brings a little gift, No matter what it is, it’s sure To give your heart a lift. For just to know you crossed his mind’s Enough to make you smile, But a souvenir is lovely, Even more when it’s your style. So my new umbrella’s ready For when rain is on the way And my sheep with shamrock’s...

Hey Tom, your heart you wear on your sleeve, Concisely achieve what a poet does perceive, Surpassing discerning reporters near and afar, Keep writing about Putin and his stories bizarre, You remind me of Churchill, just add a cigar....
