Anacreontic Verse
My last wet tears stain the starlit sky in cold frosted shades As tangible fears awaken sleeping distant memories of aged hidden pain These mortified eyes don't recall the tales my children now tell of my past sad sins In my dire defence lasting episodes of assembling joy...

Premium Member A Lovers' Heartbeat Anacreontic Verse
Timeless lyrical, compassionate dance, a shifting effect of light and color, the glowing full moon conducts in folk tune. Indispensable distant humble stars spring a russet, sign. White unfolded wings flitter wayward round a rhythmic beating in shadow, chill, air. The spike tuft ears owl melodies hooting, influence passion. A lovers' heartbeat keeping steady rhythm. A starlight guides the way by windswept night. ...

Premium Member Emerald Echoes - Anacreontic Verse
I'm an emerald echo of earth's caterpillar, a camouflaging hiatus of muse midst karmic rainstorms. Enslaved to jealous stars flaming within infernal wings, I yearn to spellbind sacred heaven's throne, chasing subconscious liberty in crowned soul of marine eyes. Tracing saffron fingertips in silent smokes of Venus, willingly, I've scarred tuscan shine of Aphrodite with pearl's thermal ache. So now, when new year's first sunflower sings ~ breathing ambrosia in gemstones of bejeweled healing, a poet...

Written: December 09, 2023 ______________________________________ Honeyed gold pearled shades brown ferns and aspens into shadowed paths lit embers and oaks As darkness draws near, with bowed tears of stark runic streaks of light dapple my sky showing only maze of black enigmas crimson, lucid blaze. leading to plum sky. Swift shades drape my thirst like dim-lit daydreams that persist...

Premium Member Queen of Darkness - Anacreontic Verse
They try to destroy, firing their arrows, throwing their stones, she's not the Devil, nor a perfect saint, but always misjudged. It's not just humans, but ghosts and demons. She tries to ignore, but the wounds bleed, so deeply it hurts. Her eyes are sore from constant crying, they are ignorant to her soul dying. She still tries to help, but is seen as wrong and a misfit. Hiding in silence, sins kept a...

Premium Member Ether-Bound -Anacreontic Verse
Ether-bound, into the blue I’m flying with his hand clasped in mine. Is this a dream? Underneath us earth is growing small. But up and up - wondrously we lift! Above a mound of clouds we drift. A glorious haze of stillness envelops us - sweet tranquility. I turn to see his eyes so tender - mirroring mine. Suddenly, a sharp shrill sound splits the silence most profound. The clouds vanish. I lose his hand as I reach toward the...

Premium Member Her Ink Is My Quill - Anacreontic Verse
Despite the distance, like moon and ocean, I feel her close, but touchless and tasteless. Craving her comfort. like a thief without his precious treasure, I yearn for one glimpse. Tongue is silent, but as spirits ignite, 'urges' call her name. Her voice cools embers, as souls dream to meet. Soft tones of her heart flutter so tranquil. Calmness of her waves, vibrate my heart's beam, as my moonlight rays fondle wet...

Premium Member The Astronaut - Anacreontic Verse
An alien lost, upon a planet in distant space, while hunkered down within a cave, tightly encased by coriaceous materials splashed with wear and cross-stitched red, feels the presence of five damp probes, slick and chalky, fragranced in musk and saltwater, slowly closing around his body applying pressure direct to the seams of his airtight suit. At Minute Maid Park, in Houston, Texas, Dallas Keuchel reaches into his fielder’s glove and prepares to pitch a baseball. 8/15/2016 Submitted for: Anacreontic Verse 4 Sponsored by:...

Premium Member Anacreontic Verse the Grunion Are Running
Oh summer moon your soft light highlights my hair, makes me aware of the ocean tides when the grunion run at very high tides, as females dig their tails into the sand to lay their eggs. Fertilization from a male occurs and after ten days with the next set of high tides, eggs hatch and young grunion are washed out to sea. So come with me tonight, let’s have some fun because the grunion are running...

Anacreontic Verse
The warmth is back Bringing life The wind in winter Howls saddened by death Now tickles the leaves Dancing with butterflies In fields of grass Flowers in bloom sweeten the air Replacing the smell Of death and despair Streams once again flow Babbling softly Whispering stories Of times long ago As wind passes by It listens Taking stories Up to sky Tales of such beauty Clouds begin to cry Nature is renewed Forgetting yesterday Summer is here Wind...

Premium Member Anacreontic Verse - Garden Party
Garden Party Honey bees petal to petal roving salesmen pressing buzzers leaving calling cards blowing in the wind. Butterflies, in flowing gowns adorn red carpet of jealous rose. Fireflies, nocturnal lantern carriers of the pixies, announce the stars. Dew drops, wet kisses upon pursed lips, awaken passion under cover of darkness. Ants parade, long Conga Lines passing on a two lane road. Snails park their campers in a shady patch of leaves. Motionless, the praying Mantis silently waits. 7/21/2016 Submitted to – Anacreontic Verse 4 –...
